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.

Took 45 minutes to get my food. Everyone in the place was waiting at least 30 minutes. Crowded, loud, unpleasant.

Food is mid and considered "fast food" but will take 30+ minutes to get you your food, just go to canes at this point

Probably the worst Dave's hot chicken I've been to in SoCal. Both times we came here, the wait after ordering was around 25 min and our food came out warm. The fries weren't even hot? For a medium the chicken could've been spicer. There aren't a lot of tables, it's just crowded in there with people who are waiting for orders. In San Diego, the best location is the one in pacific beach. Pb location has fast service and the food always comes out PIPING HOT!

I only come because the kids like the spice sprinkled on the chicken. Expect a wait of at least 30 minutes during any sort of meal time. They dont have much seating. Why would anyone come? Cane's and ChikfilA are light years faster.
