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

Been waiting to try this place. Love fried chicken sandwiches so much, and usually defer to a certain NOLA inspired chain. Also big fan of Fry the Coop. But they have a couple locations and they are a trek for me. Man did this place deliver. Ordered A slider and Cheese fries. Medium sauce cause I've never tried any and sometimes Hot can be crazy Hot. Sandwich was incredible, cheese fries always a solid side. Love it. I'll be back!

If you like heat, this is the place to go!! Very simple menu very simple menu but filled with flavor!! I purchased the combo number 3. I got the tender medium and the slider hot. Is absolutely incredible! Support this local business so we can keep some delicious heat and the community!

We've been here many times and it never disappoints. The chicken is always fresh and hot. The servings are generous and the food is all around delicious.

I was curious about the hype so I decided to give this place a try. It was definitely packed when I went but not as long as drive thru. Order: 2 Dave #3 (1 tender + 1 slider with fries) Honestly, I'm not sure what the hype was about tbh. The fries were delicious and crispy which was amazing. The slider and tender was decent but I'm not a fan of my spicy chicken to be so sweet. This place is a good place to grab Nashville hot chicken sandwich that close to home but I would rather have Fry the Coop over Dave's.

Good chicken, delicious cheese fries, and quick and polite service! A bit pricey for what you get, but worth it in my book!

This place is great! It exceeded my expectations in terms of friendliness of staff, time of preparation and flavor. The flavor actually reminded me of a really famous chicken place in Nashville called Hattie Bs with a line out the door at most times during the day. This was my first time here but I will be making the 25 minute drive again
