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.

Love the chicken here!! I always get the top loaded fries. “Reaper” hot made me get snotty but was delicious. FYI, you have to sign a waiver for Reaper anything. I honestly didn’t notice a big difference between “Hot” and “Extra Hot” in the chicken sandwiches. Also, I love how they give so many pickles The seating is tin chairs and wooden tables, totally casual.

Something was off today with the chicken. A customer who had already finished their meal mentioned it during conversation while I was waiting. My order was to go, the chicken didn’t taste right today. Maybe it was just him and I?
Everything else tasted fine. Alejandro took my order, served with a smile and very professional.

Simply put, they have some good chicken. Great flavors and the right amount of spice per request. Price point is a little rich for my blood but the servings are enough to fill you up and then some to make you forget the sound of your wallet deflating. Will be back again.

Place has good chicken. Top of the fried chicken game.
HOT chicken.
Reasonably priced except dips.
1.27 for a small ramekin of ranch. $1.27 for small side dip of barbecue sauce the real small ones. That’s outrageous. I thought It would at least be a medium size.
The chicken is hot. Most places say hot and it’s not hot it’s just spicy. This chicken is hot when it says hot. Very hot is very hot.

Dave’s Hot Chicken never disappoints! ️ From Very Hot to the insane Reaper’s Hot, their spice levels are on point. I’m absolutely mad about their sliders, chicken bites, the famous Dave’s #4, and those irresistible loaded fries. The food is top tier, but what makes it even better is the amazing staff — they make the whole experience complete and unforgettable.

I had an outstanding experience with Day’s Hot Chicken in Chicago. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was top notch. We ordered through DoorDash, and when we called the restaurant, they were incredibly generous. Since we loved the food so much, they went above and beyond by adding extra items like mac and cheese and additional fries. It was a thoughtful gesture that truly enhanced the experience. I highly recommend Day’s Hot Chicken for anyone craving delicious food and exceptional service.

I was craving some Nashville hot chicken and got an order from Dave’s bc it had the highest google rating of 4.7 stars. Great people I’m sure, but the food is not it.
Medium tenders- not even close to heat. It’s caked in the dry rub but it tasted sweet more than anything. And they were flat (guessing it is also for the sliders)
Kale slaw- no sense of bite. No taste.
Dave’s sauce- just yellow colored mayo.
Mac and Cheese- the only saving grace. Still put a bunch of salt and pepper.
Only leaving a review for someone else to not get duped like I was, as a southerner that just moved to Chicago

Nice size meal for the price. The chicken was juicy and filling. I order the hot temperature chicken slider and it got rather hot towards completing it.
