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.

Very (fire) , but in all seriousness the food is outstanding coming from northern Indiana where good spicy food is rare, this is a breath of fresh air. Most importantly Drake ate here.
Absolutely the best nashville hot chicken I've had in chicago. I got the extra hot tender and slider, and as someone who loves spice, I think they were the perfect level. Definitely could go a step up (I'll try the reaper next time) but I still felt a nice kick. Also felt like a great value - got a full belly off of $15. Never gonna complain about that!
This place was one of my favorite fast food places as of now. The interior and exterior design was pretty good. You can park your car in front of their place. When I enter I'm shocked because there are a lot of people inside. I ordered their big Platter for take-out. It has an 8 Chicken Sandwich, 1 Mac and Cheese, 1 Coleslaw, 3 dio sauce, fried chicken and pickles. It was yummy and tasty. It was too hot and zi recommend this to those people who love sweets. Trir chicken was so flavorful and juicy. Their burger has a lot of c... read more
I usually don't eat fried chicken but this one is sooooo goood me and my kids love it soooo muchhhhhh
the dry seasoning on the chicken is delicious and makes it not so messy which is nice. pickles taste homemade and the crinkle cut fries and great too. homemade sauce is delicious. will be back!
A great chicken spot to hit up with friends! I say with friends, because, first off, the serving sizes here are huge! When you first glance at the menu, there looks to only be 3 meal options. Dave's #1 comes with two tenders, Dave's #2 comes with two chicken sliders, and Dave's #3 comes with a tender and a slider. I ordered Dave's #2, but these were definitely more like full-on chicken sandwiches than sliders. The serving sizes here are huge and definitely seem meant to be shared with at least two people. I was able t... read more
Got the wrong order or spice level today, so I wasn't happy to drive all the way back to return something, but the manager was very accommodating and reminded me of my favorite comedian Burt Kreischer. So how could I be mad. He fixed the order to my satisfaction and the counter help was cordial. So I'm glad because I really do enjoy their chicken. Thank you Dave's. And manager dude.
First time trying this place after driving by and seeing it was new. I was super excited to try it and ordered two chicken sandwiches and cheese fries for delivery. The chicken was the bomb. The spice level is impressive. The seasoned fries were good, but they were missing cheese. So that kind of sucked. I was charged for the cheese fries, but no luck there. Also, the size of fries that came in the order was lacking. You'd think with two chicken sandwiches, the number of fries would be equal to a meal for two, no? As I sa... read more
Hearing about this place, I had very high expectations in terms of what I was going to taste and eat. Their food was just ok. The best thing they had was their chicken (of course) but even that fell a bit short. The chicken wasn't crispy but was flavored well.
