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 had great service at Dave's Hot Chicken from Marquise. He was very helpful, friendly and had great customer service.

First time trying Dave's, and I've got to say, it definitely lives up to the hype. I would say it's as good as any chic fila or Popeyes sandwich, maybe even more so. I would absolutely come back anytime I'm craving a chicken sandwich. Great lunch-time spot for friends or even for a quick solo food venture. Love the color theme and aesthetic, very enticing and welcoming.

[Second visit ever to a Dave's, first time at this location.] Overlooking the absolute lunacy of how many people were coming and going into the Harmon Meadow complex early into a Saturday evening - we finally found a parking spot not too far away - and were excited to give this recently-opened Dave's a shot. A tight, focused menu. Seven levels of heat/spice. We all went with something different. My 'bites' were... not the best. I found myself biting into aggressively seasoned pieces of chicken that were oozing oil. Th... read more

If you're craving some top-tier hot chicken, the new Dave's Hot Chicken in Secaucus is the spot! They're frying everything to order, so the chicken comes out piping hot, steaming, and ridiculously juicy. The portions are no joke--both the tenders and sliders are huge, way more generous than you'd expect. I went with the #3 combo: a slider and a tender with fries, plus pickles and coleslaw inside the slider (a perfect balance of crunch and flavor). Every bite was packed with heat and that signature crispy coating. On top of ... read more

We have been eagerly awaiting Dave's Hot Chicken to open in Secaucus. During the holiday bustle this weekend, we stopped for some lunch, and they certainly did not disappoint! Firstly, these folks know what they're good at it. The menu is limited, as they focus on their main staples without many frills. This is a major selling point. Initial impressions: the place is immaculately clean. It is spotless. The staff were kind, courteous, and gave us the rundown on how things worked. I opted for the two slider platter with che... read more

So happy they opened this 5 minutes away from me! Great timing, too. I'm bulking for the winter. FOOD: The 2 piece chicken tenders were slightly smaller than the ones I've had at the NYC locations but could probably just be the batch... The seasoning was all there! The chicken itself was cooked well--juicy & flavorful! The bread was bread. The fries were a little over-seasoned. Still good! LOCATION: The place is super clean and a lot bigger than the NYC locations, even though the decor brings me back. I went about a... read more
