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

Dave's Hot Chicken is a chain of fast-casual Nashville-style hot chicken restaurants that opened in Los Angeles, California in May 2017. It was founded by Armenian-American childhood friends Dave Kopushyan, Arman Oganesyan, and brothers Tommy and Gary Rubenyan. Kopushyan, the chain's namesake, was a professional chef trained by restaurateur Thomas Keller at three-Michelin-star restaurant The French Laundry. He and his friends had a dream to open their own Nashville-style hot chicken restaurant. After scraping together $900, ... read more
Fast service with a really clean restaurant. The chicken was juicy I got no spice but next time want to try a little or mild because no spice meant no unique flavor. The fries were tasty! Loved adding honey to the chicken and Dave's sauce was good.

Though my first time was a long wait, it was only because of the grand opening. I went a second time and the line moved quickly. Both times my food was phenomenal. The Mac and cheese is the best I've ever had and the fries just had tremendous seasoning. The chicken had the perfect crunch pairing perfectly with the sauce and cheese. I loved my chocolate milkshake. I will be returning as I live nearby.

I wanted to see what all the hype was about so I headed on down to Dave's Hot Chicken w/ my honey. It was a chill vibe when I came inside. There was music playing which I love a spot w/ music. I ordered mild chicken tenders w/ Mac & cheese. My honey ordered mild chicken tenders/sandwich w/ fries & a cheese cup. The orders came w/ pickles & Dave's special sauce. My order came w/ sliced bread. The cashier was nice & friendly. He gave me a little buzzer that will ring when my food is ready. We waited a bit for our food to come ... read more

Ordered a meal online for my wife, daughter and myself. Some thoughts. . . I had the two slider (hot) and fries combo. My wife had the cauliflower slider (light mild) and the half pint of pickles. My daughter had the slider and cheese fry combo. While I definitely tasted the heat, I didn't get much in the way of flavor from my sliders. My daughter had a similar reaction. I would say the sliders were much larger than I expected. My wife liked her cauliflower slider a lot. The fries were good - some seasoning and pretty go... read more

I was excited a Dave's Hot Chicken was opening in Milford, because I liked it so much when I tried it in Brooklyn. I went to the supermarket by my house today, but it was a zoo, so I walked right out. What a perfect excuse to eat out for lunch with my daughter and finally visit this spot. We got lucky with parking in the lot right out front. I was surprised how spacious it is inside. I love the graffiti on the walls, feels like a taste of NYC. The line went quick but the order took a bit long; it was expected with how busy... read more
