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

Food was nothing special. Not cheap. Good music so loud that normal conversation was not possible. Service was pleasant, but really curious what the constant parade of employees to the restroom was about? One person rest rooms with plenty of downtime waiting for the employees to vacate.

It was okay. Chicken breading was hard and tasted bitter because over cooked. The fries were sweet due to seasoning. Cooked well but could not get past the flavor. Music was so loud you could barely hear the staff. Luckily it was nice out so we sat outside.

Very loud from the amount of people inside, the music and the setup of the build. Four main choices to pick from. 7 levels of spice from no spice to inferno. I got hot and my nose is draining and I'm sweating bullets. The workers are very friendly and welcome everyone through the door. Very busy even at 4pm. I can't imagine dinner rush on Fridays. They offer fountain soda smoothies and shakes. They do offer a catering side as well for parties. One down fall is NO Mustard packets!!!! The chicken tenders are plum (way bi... read more

I was working in Peoria, IL this week and noticed that Dave's Hot Chicken had recently opened a location in Springfield, IL. On my way back home to St. Louis, I decided to stop by and pick some up for my wife and me--we both love the place. I'm currently on a diet until June, but I couldn't resist ordering mine to freeze for later (yes, I know ). Since we don't have a Dave's nearby, I have to take advantage when I can! I ordered ahead through the app, knowing it would likely be busy with the location just opening a couple ... read more

I went on the soft launch opening and the staff was extremely nice and welcoming. The outside looked sick and so did the inside. The chicken sliders so actually amazing and the mac and cheese was so good as well. It's so worth it even tho it's expensive
