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... More

Dave’s Hot Chicken is not bad. The chicken is crispy, juicy, and the spice level has good flavor. The sliders and fries make a satisfying combo, especially if you enjoy Nashville-style hot chicken. Overall a solid spot when you’re craving spicy fried chicken.

Stopped in and got some of the Dave chicken bites. The medium and the hot boy are the hot ones. You can smell like when it comes to the table how hot it is. The spice is just oozing off of it. I got a side of cheese for the fries and only a couple of the cheese sauce. The chicken is hot and fresh and super spicy with lots of flavor. The pickles are a really good addition the cheese with the fries is super tasty. If you’re not into season on your french fries seasoning, not salt the Dave sauce kinda taste like a Chick-fil-A not a ranch they clean restroom. Lots of parking. Everyone was really nice 10 out of 10. Recommend this location. They also have baby ice and you get to fill up your own drink. They have no drive-through..

First off I just want a say I love the customer service. I love how everyone is super friendly. I’ve never been to a Dave’s hot chicken where I was greeted so nicely. Make sure you come to the one in West Covina if you want good customer service, there was this one worker named Isaac very nice. Very helpful. Made my Dave’s hot chicken experience worth the drive.

Wasn’t busy during lunch time on a Sunday. Audrey was super nice and friendly as she took our order. We checked out the drink station whole waiting for our order. I mixed up my peach iced tea and pink lemonade. Super refreshing especially on a hot day like today. Food was ready a few minutes later, piping hot and it smelled heavenly. The chicken to bun ratio was out of this world. Tender and juicy all white meat, seasoned well and lightly breaded. Fries were crispy and were awesome dipped in Dave’s sauce.

Used to head out and grab some Dave's reaper. Now, they opened a spot much closer. Like always, grabbed that chicken reaper. Nice and spicy. Fries are just those frozen krinkle cut with season salt. Csn be on the pricey side. Two kiosk stations at the front counter. If cashier is unavailable. Self serve drinking station. Indoor seating area. Small counter at front window. No out door eating patio. Public restrooms are available. Parking lot is small and tight. Since they have many businesses in this center. That reaper is the good stuff.
