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.

They were so friendly and the food was delicious. I walked in and was greeted by 3 different employees who had no idea that anyone else had greeted me. I ordered online, someone quickly grabbed my order. While that person was getting my food, someone else asked if I had been helped. This all happened in under 2 minutes in the restaurant.

Dave's always has edgy and upbeat art and vibes and this location has a lot of it! Everyone is super nice and very helpful and all of your good favorites are here. I indulged in the loaded fries and the chicken bites of course. I also had a slushy from them for the first time and next time I'll pair it with their ice cream! Just remember that this location does have parking that is a littl... read more

Looking forward to seeing you again!
GREAT service, chicken was outstanding (I had the medium temperature sliders). Staff was constantly cleaning. Shouts out to the entire staff especially Lashon, Jimmy and the young lady with the big smile at cashier. Will be back!
