About this business
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 in a parking lot in East Hollywood serving a simple menu of tenders, sliders, fries, and kale slaw — they created a viral cult following with lines consistently over an hour long. THE JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and op... read more

Coming from the bay area, my friends and i wanted some spicy chicken. Food is as good as it looks! Special shout-out to khush to being so helpful & welcoming :D
The custom service is outstanding here especially from the lady, Khush, who rung us up. And the food is Bussin!! You should definitely try.
the customer service is amazing!! khush is the nicest and made this first time experience super easy. the food is so good u have to try!!
Super quick service! Chicken was perfectly seasoned/cooked. The sliders are huge - not really sliders. Perfect amount of food
Food is good but they will get your order wrong like they did with me today. Git my order wrong twice. The manager thinks shes on top of things...far from it
carrie was amazing, i stopped by earlier today it was my first time here and she recommended combo #3, did not disappoint. will definitely come back again soon!
It looks good, sounds good . But if you like a real chicken sandwiches, you know this ain't it . The chicken is seasoned so weird, it reminded of a falafel sandwich. I couldn't get the taste out of my mouth for like a day or two, everytime I burped, I could taste it . I'm giving it a 3 out of 5 . Even tho I really want to give it a 2.5 .
UPDATE (July 16, 2025): I'm updating my previous 5-star review to 2 star after my recent experience. I ordered my usual 2 slider meal online on 7/16/2025 and specifically requested the sliders hot, but there was absolutely zero spice - completely bland. Despite only 3 people waiting for pickup and 2 dining in, it took an unusually long time to get my order. To make matters worse, they gave me Dave's sauce in these tiny plastic cups (like soy sauce containers) instead of the proper sauce packets - which is ridiculous for an ... read more
Honestly, I am super disappointed in Dave's Hot Chicken. I had high hopes because of all the hype, but this was not it. The chicken was way too salty, like they dumped the whole shaker on it. I like heat, but the spice level wasn't even enjoyable -- just made my mouth burn without any flavor payoff. Also, the line took forever even though it wasn't that busy. Staff seemed kind of out of it and disorganized. By the time I got my food, the fries were soggy and cold. For the price, you'd think they'd at least try to make it fr... read more
