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

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!

Dave's Hot Chicken recently opened in Rowland Heights at the old PizzaRev location, next to Dean and Higo Express. Alright guys, I started with the fries and it was bomb. Crispy on the outside and steaming hot, moist on the inside. After 3 pieces of fries, I took a bite of the slider and was like "Wow! It's pretty darn good." I went back to the fries to enjoy it some more with the sauce this time. And then I took another bite of the slider and bit a really dry and stale part of the chicken. Not sure what had happened but p... read more

Business response:

Thank you for your feedback, Eric. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the fries and slider but we're truly sorry about the issue with the chicken quality. This is definitely not the experience we aim to provide. We'd love to make things right for you, so please reach out to us at dhcfeedback.com with more details. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to improve your next visit!

I ordered regular top loaded fries and a regular Cinnamon Toast Crunch top loaded vanilla shake. There is a couple of different heat levels. I like spicy foods so I ordered very hot which is the second most spicy level. Regular size gets you 6 bites. Since the shake is top loaded make sure to mix in the lolthe top so it is dispersed throughout the shake. The only con is the shake is thick and the straw is not useable right away. The interior was nice. Oldies were playing and it had fun decor. The service was good.
