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.

We hit DHC at least once a week. The online ordering is very easy to use and makes pick up a snap. The spices are delicious and the slider can't be beat. The staff is always friendly and when we do eat at DHC, the restaurant is clean and has a good atmosphere.

Yummy! My boyfriend and I shared the #3 - 1 chicken tender, 1 fry, and a slider with an extra slider on the side and it was super filling. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the slider was absolutely delicious!! Everything was so good.

I ordered my lunch at 11:06 on a lazy Friday. I was the only one inside. I ordered a number three, extra hot, and sat down at my table which appeared clean. However, the table was very sticky, but I made it work. Here's where the big downside showed up on this day, and it might be an anomaly. It took almost 20 minutes to get my food. There was no explanation as to how long it would be or an apology for how long it took, so I didn't know what to think other than, "this took forever ". This was my first time eating here, so ... read more

It was decent. Thought it was pricier than it should be. Tbh canes is better but wasn't the worst.
