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

I had very high hopes for this place but it didn't not meet my expectations with the food. I loved the atmosphere and environment... very well done! The wall graffiti is amazing. I arrived shortly after opening and waited about 20 mins in line and another 15 mins for my food. I went to get my drink and most of the selections were not available. The sandwich was just ok and the fries seem to have been sitting. I will say it's a big slider and I could finish the two I had ordered. I will give it another try and hopefully have ... read more

I haven't heard of Dave's Hot Chicken but I have been seeing the ads and the new building sign so I've been interested to try it! The staff were super friendly and the chicken was really tasty. I got the Dave's Bites and fries. The bites only come in no sauce, medium or hot but their other menu items have more options for heat! I like some heat but not too much and so I got the medium. To me it was just perfect, I could have handled more but it was a perfect balance for those who don't like the fire. The artwork inside was v... read more

I was pleasantly surprised. I could tell by the outside of the building this was an eccentric, exciting spot. It gives me arcade vibes. The interior is decked out in colorful graffiti type style. This place is packed 24/7. The line was the out door when I arrived Mon a Monday evening. The people working so so kind and fast. HOWEVER. This is Not fast food! Do not be fooled by the Hot Chicken title. Very much freshly fried, and takes time to get your order. The portion sizes are larger than I expected. The crispy chicken was s... read more
