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.

Inedible. Wasted $. Strange flavoring and the texture of the chicken was not good. :(

We went here for the first time last Saturday. I had high hopes as I live spicy chicken! I ordered 2 single chicken tenders with medium spice with a bottle of water- it was 12.49! Prices are outrageous for what you get. The spice was so overpowering, too much cayenne!! No balance of flavors. The inside of the chicken was overcooked Very disappointing!! Will not be back!

First time eating here- im from KY and they actually open one there last year but haven't had chance to try. Saw a TikTok guy who was trying the slider and said was really good. So gave it a chance- my thoughts are, first they didnt get my order correct as I asked, but I didnt notice till got home. Secondly the way the sandwich was it was a mess and the bun was folding downward when went take first bite.

Over priced fried chicken Just not worth it , it's tenders or sliders, sliders are just tenders on a bun. Bun gets soggy

Expensive and just not very good at all. In fairness, I must admit that we tried it shortly after they opened but I doubt we will give them another try based on all the other choices available.

I can't believe this place is still running. They treat their employees with so much disrespect and ignorance it's unbelievable. The teenage employees don't really notice because of how high they are. They had new management take over after just a few months of opening, they changed everything for the worst. Not to mention the food is so expensive, $15 for a sandwich, fries and no drink. What a joke.

Decent food, under spiced compared to other Dave's in Michigan. Very slow service, workers do not seem to have a sense of urgency to provide a "So good!" Experience for their customers. No energy or movement from the kitchen. which might explain the slow service and 30 minutes for an order. It says maximum occupancy of 86 but there was a total of 5 other people and 2 cars that went through the drive through by the time I ordered and yet I still waited for 30 minutes for mediocre chicken from a lack luster staff of 10 people ... read more

Tried for the first time and not impressed. Ordered chicken (mild) and I had to down two bottles of water. Thought it was pricy for what you get. No return customer here.

We've been here five times now. Each time it's taken a turn for the worse. If tonight's meal had been our first time we would never had a second visit. There were three things wrong with our order tonight. Why are fast food restaurants so challenged to get the order right?
