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

THE PLOT CHICKENS! Dave's Hot Chicken has been on my radar for a while now. I think it is so fun that bigger chain restaurants are finding homes in our small city of Birmingham. DHC is originated in Ohio and now has many locations throughout the country. With one of the newest being right here in Vestavia Hills! I came with a friend of mine and we split the number two which comes with two sliders. It was the perfect shareable meal. When I think of sliders I think of something small, but these are not small sliders at a... read more

When Dave's first opened, my first thought was another chicken place ? I would drive by their blowup advertisement logo everyday, but never really thought about going. It wasn't until my son visited at Thanksgiving that we all decided to try it. We visited the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. It was jammed, but luckily we found a table. I ordered a tender and a slider, and swapped the fries out for mac and cheese. I was excitedly shocked to see that the slider was really a full size, giant chicken sandwich, and I have to say... read more

My family had lunch today at Dave's Hot Chicken's location in Vestavia, AL. Service was great, the food was delicious and the restaurant was decorated in a casual arcade style vibe. Staff was so friendly too. From ages 18 mos. to 60's, everyone in our family loved our various levels of hot chicken!! Try it!

I have been dying to try Dave's because I see it on TikTok so much, and I was glad they opened a location here! To start out, the fries are really good and crispy and I really like the sauce that comes with everything. I was really bummed though that they only have their sauce and no ranch. This might be a known thing for Dave's, but I did not know this and I was so sad! I got the chicken mild and it was good and had a sweetness to it. The only thing I did not like about the chicken was that it was really salty. The not so g... read more

I was pleasantly surprised on the size of the chicken tenders. Felt like it was pretty expensive for a 2 tenders meal but it was plenty of food. The chicken was juicy but the medium wasn't very spicy so level up if you like spice. The team was very friendly but seemed overwhelmed. Think they are still working out some kinks. I got my food to go, but the inside does look fun and look forward to dining on the patio.
