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

In store awaiting my order in this busy night for the Dave's Hot Chicken crew. I was serviced by Norma who was not only helpful, but polite and courteous handing the front while passing out numerous orders, with a line that seemed to walk in all at once. At least 4 separate groups looking to order and her ability to NOT stress out showed. Took our order, answered questions and all with a smile. This is an employee who not only was doing her job. But doing it VERY WELL! Be back soon! 

Business response:

Mariah’s got that top-tier guest service! Love to hear it.

The customer service at Dave's Hot Chicken is generally solid but can vary by location. Since it's a fast-casual spot, the interactions are usually quick, but most employees are friendly and efficient like Angie and Jenifer

First time here at Dave's and what a surprise. Enjoyed their chicken sliders. Amazed how big their portions are as well. Rose was very helpful at the front with the selection of spice level and nailed it. Everyone's very friendly. I love the music inside as well. Don't forget the kale slaw . A must try for any chicken lovers. 

Business response:

Love that you had a great first visit! Our sliders definitely bring the big portions, and Rose is a rockstar at helping guests find their perfect spice level. Appreciate the love, and hope to see you back for more soon!

I try all the hot chicken places and this one's an easy favorite. I've been 3 times now and the food has been consistently flavored and good. I go for hot, and they have more complex flavor than most hot chicken. Enough to make my lips tingle but not take my breath away. Savory, spicy, a touch sweet, and never too dry. It's so good. Fries are seasoned and crunchy. They're soda is excellent, like they have their syrup ratio set higher so it's extra sweet. IYKYK. And I have been nothing but wow by the customer service they'r... read more

Business response:

A hot chicken pro! Glad you appreciate the balance of flavors. We’ll keep bringing the heat and the consistency.

Amazing quality of food & great service from everyone! Of course they might take a bit longer on orders but as a newly opened place they are doing AMAZING ! Got a number 2 both hot and it was a great spice not too crazy. Will be coming here often to enjoy with family. Besides that, they have great music and wasn't too loud but will be busy just to keep that in mind. Thanks to my cashier Rose she made it easy to order my food! 

Business response:

Love the energy! Sounds like Rose took great care of you. Thanks for rolling with us as we work out the kinks at the new spot!
