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

So good, you're not going to find anything this quality with the spice and flavor in a drive thru. Soooooo good, can't say enough. Came with bread and pickles, so fire
Dave's was good, but has absolutely nothing on Ricky's Hot Chicken. The chicken was overcooked and comeback sauce was bland. I'd only go again if I was craving chicken and Ricky's was closed.

Service was stellar. The owner personally spoke to us and asked us about our food. When they accidentally put cheese on the sandwich, they were super nice about it and gave us a brand new one. The food was amazing. Medium or mild spice is what I recommend. Also, the fries are super good. You need to get fries. Definitely coming back and would definitely recommend to others.
Solid Tenders, a little on the dry side but seasoning and heat (I got hot) were spectacular. Fries with their seasoning were also solid as crinkle cut fries gave it an extra bonus. Dave's sauce was very good as well, has a similarity to the Raising Canes sauce. Bread was generic white bread that was unfortunately on the stale side. But very solid and would eat here again

Zach, thank you for the feedback! We'd love a second chance at that fifth star. If you have a few extra seconds, would you mind connecting with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc? - Julie C.
Dunno what all the complaints are about. I was able to go just after the lunch rush and only 5 cars ahead of me. Got the 2 slider combo and 2 individual tenders, both extra hot. we both found it to be very tasty. be warned though, the "sliders" are huge, definitely a meal for 2 people in my estimation. The extra hot had a pleasant spiciness but not overpowering. I think could handle the reaper. next time! btw, I read comparisons of this place to ricky's hot chicken that I just don't understand. Rickys always has a line out ... read more

Chris, Wow! That's a great review! Thanks for taking the time to let us know! Come back soon! - Julie C.
The food and service was fine, but check your expectations if you're expecting "hot chicken" I like pretty spicy stuff, but I went on the milder end since it was my first time and I had somewhere to go immediately after and didn't want to walk in sweating with a red face, so I went right in the middle with "Medium" There are 3 levels above that (Hot, Extra Hot and Reaper) and 3 levels below that (No Spice, Lite Mild, Mild) I wasn't expecting these to be very spicy, but being that there are 3 levels below this one, 2 with... read more

Great new spot for some tasty hot chicken. My friend and I dined in and there was plenty of space. The menu is pretty limited, but everything was tasty. My friend ordered the #3 combo which was 1 tender and 1 slider. I got the #2 combo which was 2 sliders. Each combo comes with a side and you have the option to add cheese for $1. Drinks are extra. While the price is a bit steep ($29 for 2 combos, cheese added to sliders, a water and soda), the sliders are pretty much full size sandwiches, so the portion sizes match. If you'r... read more

Super delicious. Line was extremely long, it wrapped around the building, HOWEVER - it moved quickly. I hate coleslaw but it was delicious in that chicken sandwich! I got medium hot and it wasn't spicy at all. I'm going to try the reaper next time.
We came during dinner on a Sunday and they were pretty packed which was expected. Surprisingly, the wait was not that bad and we were dining in. We were able to catch an open table right before our food was ready! The drive thru was crazy that I feel like ordering and receiving inside would have been faster. Now for the chicken- the crispiest chicken I have ever tried! It was AMAZINGLY juicy and seasoning was on point. We tried the hot and mild. The hot was not as spicy as we had expected. We definitely want to give it a s... read more
