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 interior was clean and bright. The employees were helpful and friendly. We ordered the bites and tenders meals which came with fries and bread. Everything was delicious. 

Business response:

Glad you enjoyed everything from bites to décor! Thanks for sharing those great photos!

Overall 3.5 rating. The food was super good and good amount of spice. However we did wait 30 min for the food (at peek dinner hour 6:00ish) and the lady Ella who took our order had major attitude for no reason I was being nice and ordering quick I think she just didn't want to be there maybe Would get again tho 

Business response:

Thanks for the honest feedback! We’ll keep working on faster service, and sorry if Ella came off rude—definitely not the vibe we want.

I'm truly conflicted on how to rate this specific Dave's Hot Chicken establishment. I live in San Diego and I'm currently in Redding visiting family so I haven't been to the Redding Dave's Hot. However I go to Dave's Hot Chicken on a consistent basis down in San Diego so I know what to expect when I go there. The big gripe I have with this place is the wait time. I know that Dave's is all the rage right now because it just opened, but the wait time for the food is way too long. We waited about 40 minutes for our food AFT... read more

They ended up giving me a voucher for a meal and I came in there just because I was nearby already hungry so I gave them another chance food was only about 9 min wait, was fresh good and spice wasn't nearly as crazy makes me think I got pranked the first time hahah, anyways shout out to you guys for changing my mind. The loaded fries are amazing
