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.

Decided to try the Nuggz today. Ordered an 8pc and actually got a 12pc. They came out hot and crispy with just the right amount of Tweener Sauce. Went great with the Pimento Ranchero dipping sauce. I didn't care for the Mac and Cheese today. The food seemed to take a little longer than usual to be ready, but all and all, I had great service from the young man that was taking orders and delivering food to the tables today.
Joella's is always a winner for my family, and we ordered takeout to take home this week! We tried the nuggets (I think they are new?), and ordered our staples - Mac and cheese, and kale salad. I like the spicy chicken on the kale salad and then drizzle it with hot honey.... Yum! Great service and delicious fried chicken goodness!
I have always enjoyed Joelle's Hot Chicken, and this new location is wonderful! I particularly like that the different spice options aren't just about leveling up the heat, and burning your mouth up, but actually offer a complex spice palette. The dipping sauces are also a with!
Hadn't been here in quite awhile. Got the Lunch Special, tweener heat level, with sweet vinegar slaw and pimento ranchero dipping sauce. The chicken came out crispy and tender. Not bad for $10.59. Service was quick.
Had a fantastic experience today my came out hot and fresh that staff was super friendly and very accommodating just a delicious meal
Hot chicken is one of my favorite foods and this is one of my favorite places to get it! Chicken is fresh, made to order and it's great quality chicken tenders! Love their sauce selection, the ranch is my favorite! The tweener heat is the perfect lil kick but not too much. Absolutely delicious!
We stopped in because my husband's grandmas name is Joella, and thought we would try it out since we were hungry for some lunch. We were instantly greeting by Melinda which was very friendly, sweet, knowledgeable and caring, we would have came back just for her sweetness. The food was amazing, I had the chicken sandwich, my husband had the chicken and waffles and kids had the tenders & mac and cheese. Everything was delicious. The "Ella" sauce is the best combo and spicy and sweet. Love it. Will definitely be coming back
Amazing food! Amazing service! Very clean restaurant and is nicely decorated as well. Highlight recommend to everyone!
The food was very good. I was glad it was more than your traditional chicken sandwich. The garlic parm fries were very tasty.
