I'm gonna be very honest, that review of how long it takes the food to come out even when the inside is dead and the drive thru has a few cars is very true. I love the food, but even with the front cashier being very sweet and nice, the output of orders is way too long. Mind you, i saw their POS that shows status of food orders and mine is the only one on there. I thought going inside would be faster but clearly it wasn't. I waited over 35 mins for 1 Slider w/Fries. I went and asked the front desk and they said "sorry, the kitchen didn't see it on their side" so if I never had asked after 30mins I would've never seen my order. It came out in less than 2 minutes right after. read more

I went through drive thru yesterday around 6:00 pm and was very disappointed with the service. At first everything seemed to be going well , mid way through my order the girl at the speaker kept asking me to repeat myself. She seemed very distracted while I was ordering. I had just got out of work and was trying to grab a quick bite. However I didn't think it would take me about 5 minutes to order 2 meals and a drink. I have been here several times to know what I want to order. When I got to the window the girl had a bit of an attitude and seemed distracted once again. She seemed confused when I told her the spice level she had down was incorrect. It is very unfortunate to say I will not be returning back. She gave me her name at the beginning of her order, her name started with an M. Maybe maya or something like that. I cant seem to remember fully. read more

Tonight was my first time here. I have to say the vibe inside was very laid back and welcoming. A little crowded ( which says a lot about the food) wish it was a little more spacious however. The service made up for it, and specifically by one worker. Gustavo was outstanding! His mannerism and professionalism was above par, I was ready to leave and ordered a fry to go. Just so I didn't wait he personally went it the back and packed it up for me. True respectful and great worker. Takes pride in his work. I like that, especially in this world now. Not sure who will read this but he deserves a raise and employee of the month. I will be back just because of the wonderful service. read more

As usual, the taste is on point. The chicken is always fresh, crispy, and packed with flavor. Spice levels are well balanced, whether you go mild or extra hot. The sliders and tenders are consistently good, and the sides complement the meal well. Big plus that it's halal, which makes it an easy go to. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion size, so you feel like you're getting your money's worth. read more

**THE WORST PLACE TO EAT** DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! THIS IS WHY, I went for lunch at 1:45pm on Friday, May 16, 2025, and it took forever to get my order, and the chicken WAS BURNED!!! EVERYTHING TASTES AWFUL AND IS BURNED OUTSIDE AND UNDERCOOKED ON THE INSIDE!! I cannot believe how they sell this type of chicken to customers! Checking was undercooked, as shown in the image, and people could become SICK: Eating undercooked chicken can cause food poisoning, resulting in symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps, and fever. Avoid eating it!!! It is not safe to eat chicken here. "The chicken looked and tasted old!!!!" TO THE MANAGER: Please review your cooking method and cook your chicken; it is burned on the outside but uncooked on the inside. Where is the quality control for the food, and who runs that establishment that allows this to happen? I'd love to hear from you about this. read more

Don't think it was handled right or cooked long enough. I got some of my chicken hot. It was pretty hot spicy wise probably not enough french fries or given out for the price. It's a one and done for us I think I prefer other places that serve chicken. read more

To say the customer service here is bad would be an understatement! It's awful. Pitiful. An unbelievable really bad joke. I ordered my food at 7:09 and didn't get it until 7:39 in a MOSTLY empty restaurant. I could understand waiting 30 minutes to get my food on a Saturday night, but anything over 15 minutes on a Monday evening is just pure fucking laziness. To make matters worse, 2-3 people who came in after me were getting their food before me. Oh and as I was filling my water cup up with WATER , the sloppy b-tch behind the counter who should've gave me my food first before running her mouth is going to tell me, "ma'am it's water only" as if the clear cup didn't already show I was filling up water. The attitudes from most of the women here is very stank. We get it. You think you're too "cute" to be working a fast food job so maybe go work somewhere else and let some one that won't take 30 minutes to fix 2 fucking sandwiches and some fries have it. read more

The tender versus the slider. I loved the tender more! The tender comes with a slice of plain white bread but the tender had more than enough flavor! The specialty sauce wasn't needed either! I ordered mines in mild flavor because I want to enjoy the flavor and it was delicious. Never knew. No regrets. Will never order slider anymore. Tender is enough. read more

Went here because we were in the area at Sam's club and had to stop here to try their chicken. I loved that the drive thru lady asked if this was my first time there. It made it so she could give me some time and also suggest their popular menu items. I really appreciated that. My husband and I just wanted a chicken sandwich so we got their number 2: 2 sliders and fries. She recommended the medium level but we wanted it kind of spicy, so we went with hot. It was the perfect level! I was surprised the combos don't come with a drink, but we didn't want one anyway. It came with pickles on the side and the fries were seasoned and delicious! Would definitely recommend! read more

Specialties

Dave's Hot Chicken was created by best friends Dave Kopushyan, Arman Oganesyan, and Tommy and Gary Rubenyan. Dave, a chef trained in Thomas Keller's (French Laundry) organization set out to create the perfect Hot Chicken by searching, tasting, and frying. The four friends scrounged up $900 to put a tiny stand in an East Hollywood parking lot. The menu was simple, and chicken was the star. And what chicken it is! Sourced and prepared to be the juiciest and most tender imaginable with each piece topped with Dave's own mix of spices ranging from "Mild" to "The Reaper". Arman created Instagram buzz and the lines began to grow. Two nights later, Eater/LA showed up to see what the fuss was about. The next morning's headline read "East Hollywood's Late Night Chicken Stand Might Blow Your Mind". Almost instantly, the lines stretched around the block. A year later, the boys had the money to open a shop in a hip strip-mall with de_cor by local street artists, where the crowds continued to grow with wait-times of an hour and more. From there, the incredibly craveable "Hot and Spicy" varieties have created a cult following with rave reviews across the U.S. and Canada.

History

Established in 2017.

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. After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and opened their first physical store in January 2018 in a sleepy strip center in East Hollywood. Demand for their crave-able hot chicken exceeded all expectations and sales have grown every month since opening with consistently long lines throughout the day.

This location sits at the corner of an apartment complex and there was plenty of parking available when we arrived.

The menu had a lot of options and variations with tongue-in-cheek names, but also the common names and descriptions below. Both my friend and I ordered "pinners," which are 8" sandwiches. I got the Kali Mist (Spicy Club) on garlic herb bread and my friend got The Kind (Turkey, Bacon, Shrooms) but without the shrooms on white bread.

Our orders were brought over by an employee once they were ready and I was immediately impressed by the amount of toppings and how good everything looked and smelled. My sandwich was super tasty and I especially loved the chipotle mayo and garlic herb bread! Having never tried Cheba Hut before, I immediately asked my friend where the closest location was after taking my first few bites. I'd love to try more sandwiches.

It came out faster than I expected, and everybody was really nice. The employee kindly answered my questions about the Birria eggrolls but i didnt try them because the onion and cilantro was in the premade rolls (makes sense! I just hhhaaaaateeeee cilantro & onion). This is kind of a limited sandwich for them or at least that's what it seemed like, but I would definitely eat it again and thankfully, we have a more local one near me.

Good amiuny of meat in each taquito. 2. Aquachiles verdes- this one was deceptionally spicy. The heat definitely creeps up on you. Cucumbers provide a brief reprieve but it was spicy still though. Good amount of shrimp in it. The small tostadas served as a nice vessel. 3. Chicarron taco- 1 taco per order. It was really loaded. Definitely required the 2 taco tortillas to prevent it from ripping. Good flavors. Wish there was some crunch to the chicharrone, but there wasent. They have plenty of drinks to choose from ad well. We ordered: 1. El jefe- this was a good drink. Very smooth. Yea you can taste the alcohol but it was very pleasant 2. La mesera- this one was good also. I thought it was going to be spicy because of the black pepper. But it was very refreshing. Cucumbers made it nice and light. 3. Lindo Amanecer- a sweeter drink. It was sweet and refreshing. In general everything tasted good. The drinks were amazing. Definitely a good vibe minus noisy patrons. Love the music playing in the background. Great customer service!!

Holy mackerel! Now when I tell you this is by far my favorite place to get a spicy chicken sandwich - I am not lying! So I want to thank my friend for introducing me to Dave's Hot Chicken, because honestly if it weren't for him I probably would have never tried this. I ordered the 2 sliders with fries. Now when I ordered I was expecting small little sandwiches. Wellllll I got two of the largest sliders ever! Trust me I was not disappointed at all. Now the cool thing about Dave's Hot Chicken is that you can customize it to your level of spiciness. I like spicy but can't really handle it so I got the medium and it was perfect. The sandwich itself was just so delicious. It's on a bun that is nice and fluffy and then there's a type of slaw, pickles (my fave) and their special sauce. It was not only jaw dropping to look at but it had so much flavor - it was just all around perfection. The combo is around $16 including taxes. Which trust me is a good price considering it could probably feed two people. I didn't get a chance to dine in since I was at work. I ordered it and it arrived nice and warm and just looked amazing! This has been my to go lately. You can get 1 slider with fries for like $10 I think. The prices are reasonable and I highly recommend Dave's Hot Chicken. I'm sorry but NO ONE can top their spicy chicken sandwich. Thank you so much for making such delicious food! Mrs. Trang defintely approves! read more

Was recommended to come here by a friend that knows I ADORE chicken and they did NOT disappoint. This chicken has to be some of the best hot chicken that's attainable outside of nashville. Not only is this chicken high quality and juicy, it is full of flavor and has a beautiful crisp. As someone that has tried original hot chicken the spice levels and taste overall meh my expectations. Such amazing service and food for a fast food restaurant. Knowing it's humble backgrounds I was very happy with what quality they continue to serve. I tried the mild, medium, hot and reaper. it is definitely a great variety of spice levels and there is sometjing here for everyone!! It has an amazing atmosphere for teens and other age groups! I would most definitely recommend this to anyone who likes lots of flavor in their chicken!! WAS ALSO VERY FOND THAT THEIR FOOD DOESNT RELY ON THEIR SAUCE LIKE CANES DOES!!!!! VERY VERY FLAVORFUL!!! I WILL BE COMING BACK!!!!! read more

Dave's Hot Chicken has completely changed the game when it comes to fast food. This isn't your typical bland chicken joint; it's an experience. Each piece of chicken is cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and juicy, flavorful interior. What really sets Dave's apart is their spice levels. They range from no spice to "Reaper," and they don't hold back. Beyond the heat, the quality of the chicken is top-notch. You can tell they use fresh ingredients and take pride in their preparation. The sides are simple but effective, offering a good balance to the spicy chicken. The kale slaw is crisp and refreshing, and the mac and cheese is creamy and comforting. The atmosphere is laid-back and cool, with a focus on the food. It's the kind of place where you can come as you are and enjoy some seriously good chicken. If you're a fan of spicy food, Dave's Hot Chicken is a must-try. Just be careful with that Reaper level! read more

Went in tonight for the 1st time since January of this year and I'm not sure how I feel about this location anymore. The place was clean, spotless actually, team members were friendly and my order was ready. I ordered a single extra hot slider and requested additional sauce and honey. They used to have this great honey in nice looking packaging that didn't look cheap. Tonight I was handed some generic honey packets that I would expect to get from the lunch truck at a construction site. Sandwich was ok, the chicken looked like it had been sitting out for a while and the spice level was too low for extra hot. I usually get the reaper but wanted something a little milder tonight but this tasted like it had barely any spice at all. Overall it was an ok sandwich, the honey packets really cheapened the whole thing. Nice place, premium price for a chicken slider and bottom of the barrel condiments. Meh. read more

Run, don't walk to try this chicken. Don't let the 'Hot' in the name scare you, there are many levels to choose from. I have been wanting to try Dave's Hot Chicken for a couple of years, now there's one in our area. staff was super friendly, dining room was very clean and fun. I ordered 2 chicken tenders with fries and the level of spicy that I chose was medium. The chicken was juicy inside and crunchy on the outside and the flavor and chosen heat level were perfection. The fries were also delicious. Pickle slices were perfect and paired well with the chicken. Portions are huge, even I couldn't eat all in one order. I am looking forward to trying the sliders. My husband and I used to travel all the way to DTLA for what I thought was the best fried chicken, this chicken is better than any other and I will be a regular. read more

A lil something I wrote for Gustavo "Gustavo Behind the Counter" Grease hums a hymn in the fryer's glow, The scent of salt and oil drifts slow. Gustavo moves with quiet grace, A tired smile across his face. He knows the rhythm of the rush, The drive-thru's chaos, the dinner crush. "Order up," he calls, steady and clear, Though dreams still whisper in his ear. He once thought life would lead elsewhere, Past neon lights and kitchen air. But here he stands, beneath the beams, Still holding onto smaller dreams. To save, to build, to make a start, To lift his name, to play his part. The world may pass, the orders fly, But fire still burns behind his eye. So when you taste the fries he's made, Remember hands that never fade. Behind each meal, each fleeting bite, Lives someone fighting for their light. read more

Absolutely amazing. Went here for my brother's birthday, and it was a bit expensive, but definitely worth the food and experience! The customer service was great, the cashier was very kind! The sauce is like a sweeter version of canes sauce, but way way better. Ate the sauce with my fries, and put some on my sandwich. You can tell it's very very fresh. It's beaming hot when you get it, the fries taste so crispy and freshly fried, as well as the chicken. Tasty buttered toast! The chicken is tender, moist, & fresh. This is definitely great for picky people, so a great options for kids too! There are EIGHT levels of spice to choose from, which is some great variety! Their hours get very late! The seating is very very comfortable and clean. I would definitely recommend this, 10/10! read more

I went here a week ago with a friend and we both ordered the #4 slider combo. I had medium heat and she had mild on hers. I also had cheese fries as a side. The server there was very polite and friendly towards us and provided welcoming services. We got our food and ate outside and let me say the first bite I took in that slider was the best! The meat of the chicken was so moist and juicy and crispy on the outside! It was the best hot chicken sandwich I had ever ate. Yes, even better than popeyes! I even dipped it in their secret sauce and their sauce was so creamy. I was dipping everything in that sauce even the cheese fries. My friend enjoyed her sandwich as well. We will be back next time and we will increase our heat level by one! Definitely give this place a try! read more

A well-cooked roast chicken is the epitome of comfort food, delivering perfectly crispy, golden-brown skin that glistens with butter or olive oil. The aromatic seasoning--a blend of rosemary, thyme, garlic, and a hint of lemon--infuses the meat with layers of savory flavor, making every bite irresistible. Juicy and tender on the inside, the chicken's breast meat stays moist while the dark meat provides a richer, more flavorful depth. Paired with roasted vegetables or creamy mashed potatoes, the dish feels hearty, wholesome, and deeply satisfying. A simple gravy or pan jus elevates the experience even further, and opting for a farm-raised chicken can make all the difference. It's a timeless classic that's nearly impossible to beat when done right. read more

I finally tried Dave's Hot Chicken, and wow -- totally lived up to the hype. The chicken was insanely juicy with a perfect crunch, and the seasoning was on point. I went for the "Hot" spice level, and it delivered that fiery kick without overwhelming the flavor. The staff was friendly, patient with first-timers, and helped explain the heat levels. The fries were crispy and well-seasoned, and the pickles + sauce combo? Chef's kiss. Restaurant was clean, upbeat, and the vibe was fast-casual but cool.

Amazing food! Always consistent, spicy, juicy, and delicious. This specific Dave's is extremely quick when ordering in store because they have a drive thru. I've had many different hot chicken places and I would say Dave's deserves the "Best Overall" award. If this is your first time here and you like spice and flavor, I would recommend a medium. Go above or below that depending on your spice tolerance. For one person, I would recommend getting a slider and fries. If you wanted some extra food, go for the slider, tender and fries combo. Get the two slider combo if you are sharing with someone read more

In addition to the geese and ducks, there's apparently a resident egret that happened to visit our table. He seemed pretty used to people and appeared to want to join us. I'd never been that close to one before. It was cool but he was also kind of freaking me out lol! Will definitely have to come back here and try more of their menu now that I know they are here! They have breakfast items as well.

I paid $9.78 total for 1 Deli surprise bag and what I got far surpassed what I paid for it. Starting off with location and parking, it's located inside a big building that is called Gateway Seminary. I didn't know what to expect but it looks just like a regular office building but happens to have a nice view of a man made lake complete with a water feature and ducks! Parking was pretty easy but you may have a far walk across the parking lot if it happens to be full. I got lucky and got a spot near the handicap spaces. There was a girl working outside and I asked her if that was the deli and she said yes and held the door open for me. Inside is like a regular little deli cafe where you order from a counter. Both employees that I talked to were friendly and kind. It was an easy transaction as they already had the bag of food waiting in the cooler for me. Now for the food, I received a delicious orange cranberry muffin. The label says it was made by Old Town Baking Company in Rancho Cucamonga. My son and I split it and we both agreed it was the best Orange cranberry muffin we have ever had. I also received a nice size cup of soup. I'm not sure what kind of soup it was but it had veggies in it and it was delicious and tasted like it was made from scratch. I also received a large Harvest salad that was nicely put together and I gave it to my bf for his lunch. The last box was a large container with seasoned rice, noodles, broccoli and carrots, caramelized onions and topped with 4 large grilled shrimp. I'm having some of that for lunch today and it is delicious ! This place far exceeded my expectations. The food tastes like it was prepared by an experienced chef and I really appreciate that. I would not mind paying full price knowing the quality of food they serve. Highly recommend.

Every ingredient tasted & looked incredibly fresh. My only small complaint is that I wish the portion was a little bigger. I finished it & definitely felt like I could've eaten more... or maybe it was just that good! Either way, I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu.

The only thing that is iffy is getting parking at the lot nearby. The place was really spacious and it wasn't that busy when I went. I took this bowl to go because I wanted to go grab some juice nearby. I really enjoyed the sweet potato in this bowl and I really also liked how everything just mixed well together with the flavors. I do think there's a lot of kale and I couldn't really finish it. Also, it does normally come with almonds, but in case you do have any allergies, they promptly let you know and can remove it if necessary. I don't think we have one back in my city so this was a nice place to try!

I get greeting upon entering the restaurant. The decor is fast food burger chain with nice outdoor seating at back. Inside the restaurant, it's small. SmokeShack is "Angus beef cheeseburger with applewood-smoked bacon, chopped cherry peppers, and ShackSauce on a toasted potato bun" The taste of meat, bun, and cheese is great. The cherry pepper carries some punch as there are some sourness and medium spiciness when you take a bite. Personally, I give it a B+ if you like spicy and slightly sour burger. My burger is ready upon arrival. It's a weekday today.
