Halal summary

About Dave's Hot Chicken

Louisiana style spicy hot fried Chicken. Parking lot sensations now serving at a brick and mortar in Los Angeles. 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.

Bomb. Ordered the #1 mild. I’m eating it right now as you read this. If you’re hungry you should be jealous. Super chill in here too. We’re kicking back. Drive safe. See you soon.

My first time EVER trying this place: Purchased two meals through doordash - the store only rang up and provided one meal despite me having ordered and paid for two. The one meal that did arrive - I am genuinely not exaggerating - ICE cold. I tried contacting their store 12 times and NO ONE answered the phone. I will NEVER ever give this place another moment of my time or dime. Absolutely terrible experience and food. *to be clear this was in NO way DoorDash fault. The driver arrived within a more than reasonable time and he was communicative in what happened and also provided me the receipt from Dave’s stating they only rang up one meal.*

I ordered an extra hot slider and I get this often at the western location and this was definitely not extra hot, also didn’t get a side of sauce, but the chicken was big just bummed they didn’t give me the right heat level Yeah it was pretty bland. Not sure what heat level it was but it was disappointing

The chicken was delicious as always. The best thing about Dave's hot chicken is that you can get it not hot at all by ordering for no spice option. The light spice taste delicious as well. Dave's number one meal is two giant chicken strips with french fries pickle and two pieces of bread. It's about $13 and well worth it. There's a cheap place to eat outside and the ambiance inside is adequate. There is plenty of street parking. The staff is friendly and quick. While waiting for your order, they give you a pager. It took about five minutes for my order. Because of the page I was able to wait outside and enjoy the fresh air. I will be back. Follow me for more reviews.

The spicy chicken is hot enough. I love this level of spicy, the spicy flavor is just into the chicken inside. The environment seems not very clean. The trash can is very full. However, the vibe is cool because played very nice and hot songs.

Elmer is a star employee. I was super excited to get a delicious chicken sandwich and he made the experience even more amazing. He went over all options and was very patient with me. He knew the menu items like the back of his hand. Elmer is the reason I will come back to this chicken joint and no other chicken joint. Elmer you are phenomenal. Dave should be proud of you! My chicken was bomb too thanks Elmer you made that happen
