"Dave Kopushyan, Arman Oganesyan, Tommy Rubenyan, and Gary Rubenyan started Dave’s Hot Chicken as an East Hollywood pop-up in early 2017, only to move into a brick-and-mortar location nine months later. The crew rode the Nashville-style hot chicken wave as it swept through Southern California and the nation, inking a 2019 licensing deal with the original investors behind the Pasadena-based Blaze Pizza to grow the company across the continent." - Mona Holmes
