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.

The food was good and the service was great. The pricing is pricey I paid for family of 6 was $75.00. I think they might been short of staff. Went after work weekday‍

Amazing service, the people that work here want you to leave happy. The food however is less than desirable. It has an artificial sweetness and spice with processed meat. Lots of oil and flavors, but not for anyone with health concerns or over the age of thirty. The inside of the building is even clean. It's just the actual food that is the problem.

This place is delicious. I got the 1 tender / 1 slider. Mild flavor. The flavor on the chicken is delicious. It's not too hot & it's packed with flavor. If you want heat I'd order at least medium. The slider is delicious between the chicken, bread, pickles, etc. You can even add honey if you want to enhance the flavor even more. The fries are so well seasoned and also super tasty. My 2 year old loved them and practically ate all of my fries. The service was great too. There was only one guy working, and they were slammed, B... read more

The gf and I have been coming here close to once a month since little after opening. Always a good experience, food is hot and fresh, great service, plenty of sauce selection, and ambience of the location. Had the pleasure of meeting the GM tonight and look forward to visiting in the near future once again.

For a fast food type food, this was good. Definitely order one level lower than you think you can handle as the spice is spicy!! But love the spice!! Would go back for a quick bite.

I love Dave's. It's definitely one of my favorite hot chicken chains. This location is very solid. Came here on a game day, and the place was completely full of people. However they kept the orders moving, and the food came out quickly. Chicken was hot and delicious. Also the staff is very friendly, and the manager checked on us to make sure we were enjoying our meal. Erica at the counter was also very nice. I will definitely come here again the next time I'm in South Bend.

Only have ever had takeout/doordash but it's quite good and the two sliders meal can be two meals if you aren't ravenously hungry.

Very simple menu, preferred the sliders over the tenders. Food wasn't great, but not terrible either. The restaurant was clean and friendly staff.
