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.

Dave’s Hot Chicken is a great place if you love spicy food. The Reaper hot burger is insanely hot but full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The chicken is juicy, crispy, and fresh every time. Portions are good and the taste really stands out. Not for the faint-hearted, but a must-try for anyone who enjoys serious heat and bold flavours.

Truly this Dave’s hot chicken location is one of the best. The food preparation time was not long. The staff Andrew so nice and made me feel welcomed. There is cleanliness at the location alongside clean atmosphere. The art is gorgeous. All in all food quality good, location is good, cleanliness good. Staff is amazing.

Absolutely loved the food here! The coating was perfectly crisp while the meat stayed soft and juicy inside. The portion size felt generous and satisfying. I tried the medium spice and found it quite mild, so next time I might go hotter. The seasoning had a bold kick that kept every bite interesting, and the fries were just as tasty with great flavor. Seating is a bit tight, so take-out might be the better option, but the food easily makes up for it. Totally worth it!

The food we had was delicious, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Since we were a large group, we waited about 5 minutes for a table to be available. The fact that it’s halal was what brought us here in the first place. Overall, we left with a very good impression.

A must-visit for spicy fried chicken lovers! The chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with bold flavors that don’t need any extra seasoning. You can choose your preferred spice level, and the house sauce is rich and perfectly balanced. The crinkle-cut fries are crispy and satisfying. Staff are friendly and helpful, and the place is impressively clean. Definitely worth a try if you’re into spicy fried chicken!

I usually visit Dave’s Hot Chicken at 7th Ave Brooklyn.
This time we went so late that it was just 40 minutes left in closing and they had put all the tables and chairs away (means the dine in was closed already) but the girl at the counter was so nice that she not only allowed us to take the chairs and sit but also suggested us to rate them on app to get a free drink (everyone loves free stuff..right??)
The food and atmosphere is always always so good. We love to go there at least twice a month (as far from our place). Highly recommended especially if you are looking for some good halal food.

Loved the service! The staff is the best, so kind and humble! The chicken slider is too good. Tried the mozzarella however they give me the slider instead of the mozzarella sticks twice, however didn’t like it! Couldn’t ask to say that they gave me the wrong order! Overall a great experience!

I placed an online order for scheduled pick up of 20 mini sliders the night before.
When I arrived, they put my order on the counter 2-3 minutes later than the scheduled time. No big deal.
I (and 2-3 other customers) then had to stand and wait for around 10 minutes while the two cashiers/employees working the front fiddled with something I can only hope was very important on one of their phones.
One of them finally seems to realize she has a job to do and checks my order before handing it to me. I mentioned before that I ordered 20 mini sliders – what I received was 4 PIECES OF UNTOASTED WHITE BREAD CARPETING THE BOTTOM WITH PICKLES SCATTERED ON TOP, PICKLES AND SAUCE IN SEPARATE CONTAINERS. Mind you, the worker who gave it to me looked in the bag and looked at my receipt before handing this garbage to me. She was more than okay to see this out the door.
Thankfully, I notice only a few steps out and go back in to ask them, more kindly than they deserved, to remake the order. They remake the order, which takes another 15-20 minutes. I am 30 minutes late for the event the sliders were for by the time I leave.
What eliminated any remaining goodwill I had towards this location and franchise as a whole was when I arrived to my event, where unfortunately only then did I notice THEY HAD ONLY GIVEN ME 16 SLIDERS INSTEAD OF THE 20 I ORDERED. Also, despite ordering medium spicy on half, either all of the sliders were mild or their spice blend is just thoroughly bland and unnoticeable.
Do not waste your time with this disrespectful restaurant. I highly recommend the Popeyes around the corner or the Raising Canes in the same neighborhood for a much better alternative that actually gives you what you order on time, low as that bar may be.
