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 can finally stop drooling watching tiktok reviews and can drool in person! So excited that a Dave's Hot Chicken opened in the Richmond area! We ordered online for pick up, where you can add modifications and choose your spice level substitute sides etc very easily. Our food was ready when predicted and the staff were very friendly. We ordered two #3 combos (a tender, slider and fries) each combo was about $13 which you can't beat. Added a large Dave's sauce and a side of mac and cheese. The food traveled decently on our 20... read more

The RVA Henrico location was great. Clean, the service was great, and the chicken was outstanding. I only tried the plain, lite mild and mild tenders, and I think they keep getting better the hotter you go. My friend tried the 2nd hottest and said it wasn't unbearably hot. I don't know how bad the reaper is, but I do know you have to sign a waiver form if you want it.

Great food. Yes it is just chicken tenders, but their seasoning blends are great. Quick, easy, and well seasoned.

This spot is a little overhyped. I'd actually tried to come here twice already, but was intimidated by the line outside and lacking available parking spaces. So, decided to try on this random Thursday night, and there was parking on the opposite side of the building open and line wasn't too bad inside (not outside finally). However, there is a ton of open space at the counter area as it's one side for dine-in/placing an order and the other for pickup/delivery services. Honestly most of the people standing there waiting were ... read more

Fast food chicken tenders. Nothing more, nothing less so don't come expecting a lot of choices. The 3 of us ordered the tender and slider combo and a side of the Top Loaded fries. Everything was cooked well. Chicken was tender and juicy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. Fries were crisp. We all got the Medium Heat chicken. It is not a sauce, more of a dry rub. We all liked it. Not too hot and when you first bite into it, a little hint of sweet. It was crowded but we only waited about 15 minutes. Not a lot of... read more

within the opening month lol but here's the review of @daveshotchicken #vibe: 5/5 the venue is very catchy, bright signs, well lit and inviting! The space was clean and trendy! #customerservice: 10/5 the cashiers and team lead worked well under the pressure of the new opening crowd, the all provided amazing customer interaction and were helpful navigating thru the menu. There was a wait but it was manageable! #thefood: Dave's Combo #1 (2 tenders, white bread, pickles and sauce: Mimi rates a 4/5 lil mild and mild) Dave's Com... read more

This is their opening weekend and there was a line out the door. No parking, I almost gave up . I turned around and came back and waited for a parking spot and I am glad I did. The line went through pretty quickly, faster than I thought it would honestly. Once we got to the register, the cashier was very friendly, and gave us the run down. We got the $9.99 slider and fries. Next we had to choose the heat level. I did mild, and my daughter did medium. Mild was just enough to kick that it wasn't too hot for me. They also have ... read more
