Nashville style chicken chain Dave's Hot Chicken has opened its latest Central Florida location in Lake Mary.

California-based fried chicken chain, David's Hot Chicken has opened its latest Central Florida location at 4405 W. Lake Mary Blvd. on August 18.


The new restaurant follows the first Florida locations for the chain which opened last year in Waterford Lakes Town Center on Alafaya Trail, and at 155 Cranes Roost Blvd. in Altamonte Springs. Another Florida restaurant at 2540 E. Fowler Ave., Tampa opened in June this year.


Dave's Hot Chicken offers hot chicken tenders and sliders at a variety of heat levels. The hottest level, the Reaper, can't be sold to customers under the age of 18 and requires guests to sign a waiver before eating it!


They also offer sandwiches, mac and cheese and other cookout sides.

The chicken chain was created by best friends Dave Kopushyan, Arman Oganesyan, and Tommy and Gary Rubenyan, the four friends scrounged up $900 to put a tiny stand in an East Hollywood parking lot.


The menu was simple, and the chicken was the star. Sourced and prepared to be the juiciest and most tender chicken imaginable, each piece is topped with Dave’s signature mix of spices ranging from No Spice to “The Reaper.”


A year later, the boys had the money to open a shop in a hip strip-mall with décor 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.
