About this business

TO LIVE AND FRY IN L.A. In 2017, four childhood friends came up with a simple concept — take Nashville Hot Chicken and make it better than anyone else in America. With only a couple thousand dollars to their name, they boot-strapped a pop-up concept in a parking lot in East Hollywood serving a simple menu of tenders, sliders, fries, and kale slaw — they created a viral cult following with lines consistently over an hour long. THE JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and opene... read more

Another great example of this franchise. The pieces were on the larger side, which is good, because sometimes I'll wander into a joint and their pieces are on the skinnier side. They also seemed to use a bit more seasoning, which is fine by me because it gave the tenders a punch of flavor. I'm not a huge fan of the space as it's a bit open, and a bit like eating at food court. But I guess that's better than being cramped up. The service was good, although she didn't offer the pickle slices like you're supposed to and I kin... read more

Business response:

Appreciate your take! Glad the tenders packed a punch, but we’ll remind the team about offering those pickle slices. Hope to see you back for another round!

Dave's Hot Chicken in my opinion is one of the better fast food options to choose from from the sea of restaurants that also offer chicken options. The interior was clean, and my food was ready within 5-10 minutes. The chicken were fairly moist and seasoned well. The fries were notably very crispy and fluffy for a fast food fry and we'll seasoned. However, all these positives are at the cost for a relatively high price tag for fast food. Dave's is worth getting for those who do not mind spending the few extra dollars for a b... read more

SO so happy they opened up a Dave's Hot Chicken close to me! I absolutely love Dave's Hot Chicken and constantly crave it. You can't go wrong ordering the spicy tenders or sliders- the fries are decent but not my fav (just my personal taste). But a definite food staple to visit! This location was great, and the food was ready fairly quickly too. 

Business response:

So happy we’re in your neighborhood! Glad we can keep that craving satisfied—hope to see you back for more!

Fast food fried hot chicken with a few dine in tables. + Dave's combo 3 ($13.99): lite mild tender, slider, and fries. Tender and fries weren't crispy, and felt they could've given more fries. Enjoyed the slider bun and slaw! Definitely could go higher in spice (6.7/10( 

Business response:

Thanks for your honest feedback! We’ll let the team know about your fry experience. Next time, maybe go for the extra spice!

I love how DHC is expanding... I didn't expect one to open in Rowland area but YAYYY me and the boyfie can come to one closer to him now :-) I usually order the chicken tenders/sandwich combo but I really wanted to try a newer item on their menu, the loaded fries and was not disappointed -- this was everything I was expecting xD I just wish they have more portions of the chicken & more sauce but overall SOO yummy ! Food came out fairly quick too & parking is so ez to find in this plaza. 

Business response:

Love the excitement! Glad you enjoyed the loaded fries—will pass on your portion notes to the team. Hope you and your boyfie visit again soon!
