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 love this place I got the sliders and the fries and they were super good. The service was pretty good and we ordered pretty quick. This place doesn't feel like a typical fried chicken place that was kind of dirty. It felt really clean inside and everything felt brand new. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a cheap chicken sandwich.
Dave's Hot Chicken is amazing. Their "Sliders" are actually full sandwiches, and their chicken is flavorful! Even the fries have flavor seasoning on them that makes them addictive! I've ordered twice using Uber Eats. Here's my experience: Positives: The flavor and quality of the food is amazing. I love that the vegetarian option isn't an impossible meat substitute, but Cauliflower "Tenders" (A cauliflower 'steak'). Even the cauliflower is breaded and seasoned amazingly. For the sandwiches they gave me a bunch of pickles, l... read more
Food was actually really good, I'd love to give it another shot on a better day. The cashier was very nice and provided great service. However the restaurant was packed definitely couldn't eat in comfortably and the wait time was horrid. Waited around half an hour for a #3 combo, wouldn't wish that on anyone, didn't help that I had to stand the whole time. Also the drink machine isn't working.

I ordered for pickup and it was ready exactly when they said it would be! Very punctual. They were very welcoming and friendly when I arrived to pick it up, took care to help me right away, and Tasha even gave me a complimentary milkshake, which was a lovely surprise~ The food itself was excellent, hot, and tasty, with very generous portions (I ordered the combo--a chicken sandwich, a tender, and fries). Would definitely order again!

Dave's Hot Chicken - Downtown Philadelphia Location I'm in Philadelphia for work this week, and every time I visit, Dave's Hot Chicken is a must. This was my first time at the downtown location, and it definitely did not disappoint. I placed my order through the app to earn rewards, then walked in to dine. The restaurant was pretty busy, but I found a seat and waited about 15-20 minutes for my order. One thing I always appreciate about Dave's locations is the vibrant artwork on the walls--this one had that same signature s... read more

I like the Philly-themed murals in the dining area. Staff was welcoming for first time customers like me and she explained the menu well. You can choose the level of heat. You need to sign a waiver for the hottest one. I picked the "little spice ". I didn't taste any heat at all. The chicken was very tender and moist. Nice crunchy coating and not greasy at all. But, very plain, boring, and lacks of seasoning even after I add the sauce.
