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

August 12, 2025 I visited Dave's hot chicken in Sandy Springs for lunch. I ordered a #1 meal and a drink which totaled $16.30. I gave the cashier a $20.00 bill and while she was digging in the register she told me she had NO CHANGE. I responded with "Well charge me $16.00 and we won't need change" !! I explained to this young that the CUSTOMER doesn't suffer from the stores neglect to properly keep cash on hand to make change. She said she couldn't do that !! POOR management !! I took my $20.00 and went to City BBQ where the... read more

Keeping this short and real--I've been on a chicken tender kick lately, trying out all the hot chicken and tender spots I can find. Dave's Hot Chicken has been all over the internet, so I had to see what the hype was about. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to it for me. Just two days earlier, I had Raising Cane's and the food was served piping hot and super fresh. In comparison, Dave's chicken wasn't fresh at all--it had a gummy texture, and the flavor just didn't hit. I barely tasted any seasoning, unless that slightly bur... read more

Scoville down the street is better imo. Someone comparing this to Gus is actually hilarious.

Limited seating: don't bring a group of friends Service: was quick and the staff was helpful and patient Food- mini sliders ( medium heat) and Oreo milkshake The milkshake was disappointing--it tasted like plain vanilla with unblended Oreo pieces, making it soupy. The sliders are small, so they're not great if you're hungry (Great for children). Hattie B's is better than Dave's Hot Chicken. Add honey and extra pickles to the chicken for free if you go. I wouldn't return here. Ambiance- vibrant colors and clean inside

The food is amazing usually. The customer service is terrible though. I ordered a medium and hot and I've been to Dave's like 9 times total so I know the spice level and they accidentally gave me reaper and wouldn't own up to their mistake. I complained to the employee and he said he can't do anything and another employee dismissed us. Everything else is good.

First I would like to state that I'm a big fan of Hot Chicken and was very excited to see a Dave's opening up in Sandy Springs. Went there on opening day , there was a line but nothing too bad. I ordered the 1 chicken tender slider in hot and one tender in reaper along with fried and a regular size drink. The hot tender was alright, nothing stood out. The reaper tender which they make you sign a waiver for was wayyyyyyy tooooo overly spiced up with reaper powder. I get it's suppose to be spicy but a layer about paper t... read more

The service and ambiance were good, however the food was disgusting. This is one of the only times where my food actively tasted bad. The spice levels below hot are just like regular fried chicken, but anything above hot just tastes like straight seasoning and spices. The fries and Dave's sauce were good.
