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.

Loved the food but the wait was terrible. Ordered on the kiosk and it felt like my order got lost. At least three groups of people ordered after us and received their order quickly and before us. Waited about 20-25 min for our order on a slow night. 

Business response:

We’re sorry to hear about the delay with your order, especially when it wasn’t busy. This isn’t the experience we want for our guests, and we’ll address the issue with kiosk orders to ensure better efficiency. Please visit dhcfeedback.com so we can follow up and make this right.

Good, cashier was very nice (her name was Joel?). This location makes it pretty fresh I still find the chicken a bit too salty though.

Flavor, check. Spice, 100%. Service, friendly & fast. Location decor is really cool and interesting. Including a full size man-chicken? that was fun to see! The spice does not mess around though, IF you think you can handle heat maybe think again or go a flavor down. I got Reaper and yes, it was delicious but it's a dry rub so mind you it catches in the throat! and gets pretty hot! All the degrees of heat are tasty though, we got plain for our baby and the chicken was juicy with good flavor as well. Fries, perfect too! Onl... read more
