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.

Always wanted to go to Dave's but they always had big lines when they first opened so I steered clear. Finally the fiancé and I stopped by one fine Friday afternoon. We shared a plate with a slider and tender spice level very hot. The food took a while to come out but boy was it hot. The chicken was moist and tasted really good. We also got the strawberry milkshake which was nice but also a little thick for my liking. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area!

Needed a place to grab a quick bite before heading for a trip and ended up here. I split the 2 slider + fries meal with the husband and felt like 1 slider wasn't enough, but 2 sliders was too much. The chicken seemed like it was a giant non crispy chicken nugget coated with some spices and between 2 hamburger buns you can get from the grocery store. The mild spicy was not spicy at all. Since we weren't full, we got an oreo milkshake to go. Literally all the straws broke because they were so cheap so we went down the street a... read more

Good fried chicken sandwiches with different degrees of heat. Got the medium and it was perfect. Just enough spice to taste but not so much where you need water if you're good with spicy. Medium is what I would consider hot Cheeto spicy . The space is bright, clean and has a nice staff.

So I'm just going to tell you that if you like your food spicy hot! You have come to the right place. It's got the heat that requires their special sauce and pickles! Now that your wondering which of the four sauces I'm talking about, my anser would be THE HOT SAUCE! it is perfect! it's hot, but it wears off, no worries. FORGET ABOUT THE GRIM REAPER HOTTEST SAUCE, unless you... read more
