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

When I tell you I wasn't disappointed at all the tenders was huge and very well seasoned I choose (Hot) the fries are season as well be careful with your choice of sauce on your tenders cause Hot was hot, very nice Dave will be back with more people

Fast ordering on a busy Tuesday night. Customer service was greeted with a smile and sweet service on top of that Inside is really clean and enough seating for daily or individual eating Menu is basic but it's enough food for a regular eater like myself but if you eat you might have to order another tender. Mac n cheese is soft and creamy but pretty good for my taste. The tender are crispy and juicy (way better than raising canes) Even the sauce was better in my opinion or you can use real honey that they have also Milkshak... read more

Busy spot at 7:30. Lines move quick. Menu nice a simple chicken tenders or chicken sliders, fries or Mac and cheese. Chicken lightly dusted with spice, very little salt, which I love!!! Fresh. Fries ok, too salty for me, next time I will ask for no salt. Environment open with graffiti type artwork. Free parking!

Dave's hot chicken has arrived in town and it is living up to the hype! This casual fast food chain offers chicken in a variety of different degrees of hotness. There are sliders, tenders, and bites. The sliders are really tasty and are topped with Dave's Sauce and some of their kale slaw. The hot bites are a really hearty portion. The place is very casual inside but well decorated and on brand. The service is pretty fast, and they now offer online ordering.

I went here for the first time last week. I've been to the one in California and I would say they are pretty comparable. My sister wanted their fries so I ordered them for her. We got the medium spice level. It was actually pretty good, the sauce and chicken bites on top were delectable. It was just the right amount of spice. The wait time is the only reason I'm docking points. I ordered via mobile and when I went to pick up my order because it said it was ready, I watched the woman at the counter take at least five minutes ... read more

I visited yesterday for the first time and I was truly impressed. I ordered the meal which consisted of 2 chicken tenders with French fries. The meal also comes with bread and pickles. I've never heard of Dave's Hot Chicken until I've seen this place in the shopping center. The food was well prepared and delicious. I decided to try the chicken with no spice and I enjoyed the meal. The service was pretty good considering that the place was crowded. The restaurant wasn't noisy it was just a lot of people coming to try the new ... read more

Good stuff. I think it's more for younger people but older people would like this place too. They got a simple but good menu. The people who work here are very nice too.
