Los Angeles-based Dave's Hot Chicken is opening its 10th location Friday in the suburb of Northridge, across the street from California State University, according to a company press release.
Launched as a parking lot pop-up concept in 2017, the chain is on track to open its 100th location within two years.
"Dave's Hot Chicken will blow your mind; every Tender is hot, juicy and spicy," CEO Bill Phelps said in the release. "Our founders started Dave's as a parking lot pop-up restaurant in Hollywood with a portable fryer and picnic tables from their backyards just three short years ago. We are ecstatic to be opening our milestone 10th restaurant right here in Los Angeles near the Cal State Northridge campus."
