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

I like this place, I eat the mild spicy version because the spicy spicy one you going to die. Its hot and will have you crying for water. Food is good but one thing I don't like is that the shake it super thick so i cant even pull it up the straw. Shake probably get lighter after you eat to pull up straw is not cool. Love the art on the wall outside shop.

Upper mids, too much cumin. Needs more salt. Friendly though and always a clean establishment

Like all places in this area, it can be tough to find parking if you're coming for dinner. If you come before 6, there is free neighborhood parking. If you come later, a meter along Fairfax is your best bet. We came in on a Friday night around 7pm and it wasn't too crowded. There was a sign that said if you check in on Yelp you can get a free drink or milkshake so we went all out and got milkshakes and the Dave's #2 that comes with 2 "sliders" and fries. These sliders are full on chicken sandwiches so I'm so glad we shared... read more

Ordered hot chicken tenders, fries, and a chocolate milkshake. The chicken tenders were superb - perfectly coated and flavored - and much beyond expectation. The fries were spiced had more flavor than expected - I loved them, and they didn't need ketchup to enjoy. The chocolate milkshake was subpar and worse than a Wendy's Frosty. 

Business response:

Hey Pat, We're sorry you didn't enjoy your milkshake! We'd love a second chance to impress you and hopefully earn that extra star. Please connect with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc so we can make it up to you? -Julie
