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 wasn't a fan of the spice used. Doesn't sit right with me. Presentation was nice and it was ok. This just wasn't for me.

It was busy so the food took a minute, which is OK I understand. The chicken was over breaded in my opinion, but the spice was good. The sauce just tasted like mayonnaise to me. The pickles were amazing. I would do anything to eat those pickles all day every day. Fries fries were so delicious. I would go back just for the fries. Although the seasoning on the tenders was a lot, felt like I was eating straight powder for a second.

Where do I even start?! I had been seeing this pop up on my timeline over and over again and it looked so tempting. They recently just opened a new location right down the road from where I live so I couldn't pass it up. Boy was I glad I didn't. The chicken is kickin' lol me and my wife were both surprised it was really good. There was a slight wait being they had just opened like 2 days before I went but it wasn't too bad. I will definitely be coming back for more 

Business response:

Thanks, Preston! We’re so glad you and your wife gave us a try and loved the chicken—it’s awesome to hear it lived up to the hype! Sorry about the slight wait, but we’re excited to welcome you back for more soon.

Dave's Hot Chicken is yummy but highly recommend to triple check your order. I accidently ordered the hubs Reaper instead of extra hot. The app should circle the spice flavor instead of underlining your choice. So be very careful 

Business response:

Thanks for your feedback, Shannon! We're glad you enjoyed the food but sorry to hear about the mix-up with the spice level. We appreciate your suggestion about the app and will pass it along to the team. We hope your next order goes just as you planned!

I was impressed! There are already a lot of places you can go to for chicken, and for chicken tenders at that. This place did not disappoint. It was busy but staff gave great customer service and food came out in a reasonable amount of time considering the big Sunday lunch rush. There aren't a lot of places to sit, but if the weather is nice there are extra spots outside to sit. Chicken tenders were big and crunchy! Crinkle fries (my fave) and an added bonus to have cheese fries. Not a lot of places offer cheese sauce for ch... read more

Thanks for the fantastic review, Angela! We’re so glad you enjoyed the crunchy chicken tenders, crinkle fries, and the tangy Dave’s sauce. We love hearing about what makes your visit special, like the cheese fries and pickles on the side. We can’t wait to have you back—next time, maybe you’ll take on a little heat!

It's nice to have a Dave's Hot chicken in Denton.. It's grand opening so of course this place is crowded. The spice levels are not a joke. Eat at your own risk. I'm either a mild or medium kind of girl but I felt spontaneous and tried the Hot and it was so SPICY that I could still feel it burn after. Gave it 3 stars because their AD was a lie. They don't have the fries with all the fixings on it and if you try to order it they'll look at you like you're crazy and I don't like the Dave's sauce or cheese sauce. Both tasted rea... read more
