"Originally a pop-up concept in East Hollywood, Dave’s Hot Chicken became a sensation garnering lines, eventually opening several brick-and-mortars in Los Angeles. The restaurant chain set its sights on San Diego with a spot in Pacific Beach with more planned. Their version of Nashville-style chicken can be customized with seven spice levels ranging from no spice to Reaper, and served in a slider or as boneless tenders." - Darlene Horn
