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

Customer service was very friendly and made sure to check in. Quick to get food out, and I enjoy the vibration system to help notify when food is ready. Only thing I'd say is to bring their chicken over the top, they should SEASON it before frying!! And even throw some seasoning on top after lol. It's cooked well, it just lacks flavor. Overall, it has a great atmosphere and food is still pretty good as well.

My first time having Dave's hot chicken. I love how new the plaza and building is. I was surprised to see a long wait, with about seven or so parties ahead of me. I would say it took about 30 minutes until I got to the cashier. Once I placed my order, it took about 15 minutes or so to get my food. The fried chicken sandwich was amazing, much better than any other fast food spot that I know of. The fries were OK, a little soggy/soft for my liking I would recommend and would come back.

Not impressed by the hype. We waited over 30 minutes for our food and it was meh at best. Could have gone down the street to Chik-fil-a and gotten a better sandwich faster.

Gave Dave's a try today and was not disappointed. The chicken came out extremely fresh, juicy, and tasty. I tried the Medium and it was plenty of spice (just warm, not hot) with great flavor. I often judge chicken places on the slaw, and the kale slaw did not disappoint. Fries were mediocre, but then again, I really did not go there to fill up on potatoes. Wait time is still a little on the long side, and there were some concerns with table and floor bussing, but hopefully time to build a more experienced staff will help add... read more

We came here for our son's birthday weekend and it's definitely an experience. We ordered and waited about 30-40 minutes for the food (4 meals). The food does come out super fresh and it's pretty high quality chicken. We all got the medium which has a great flavor. It's heavy on the chili/paprika flavor, this is a West Coast chain so it's not the Louisiana spicy chicken we're used to, still really good just different. They do a great job frying because the crunch was top tier and the way the flavor seems like it's in the bat... read more

The food was amazing as Dave's usually is. The inside was decorated in a lovely artistic way. The staff needed a little help organizing and communicating with the crowd of patrons. It was a bit chaotic which lead to the wait time being a bit long. I understand they just opened up within the last month so hopefully they can work the kinks out soon.

I understand that this place just opened so there's some grace with having to wait. However my food was not hot so I don't understand what the long wait was for. I got the mild chicken as I didn't want too much spicy, despite not being hot there was a crunch to it and the chicken tenders were a nice size. The sauce didn't have much flavor to it, and the fries were cold which was another disappointment. It was a nice amount of food for the price. The inside was clean and the decor was really nice and there was music playing, ... read more
