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.

Nothing special but not bad at all. The best part was the Dave's sauce which made the chicken taste much better. I would rather get the sauce from them and put it on better chicken. The fries weren't good. I doubt I would go back unless it was to go pick up some of the sauce

Price is good, not expensive, good portion too and taste was very good and unique. Especially after trying overpriced and small portions at shackshake yesterday, this was a 10/10 experience. Employees are helpful too.

Really really good tender chicken, good fries, good pickles, and just overall a very delicious plate. I got the mild spice level and it was great but I'd advise treating the spice scale as 1 level higher than you pick

It's greasy goodness that fuels the soul. Don't forget to ask for extra pickles as they are out of this world. Service was friendly. Very casual environment.

You need your water, depending on your spice levels! The flavor and spice was amazing. The staff were great to converse with and have a laugh. My friend and I came here when they first opened, so it was quite busy but the lines moved quickly! We were able to get seats quickly, as it is very spacious. 

Business response:

Wow, thanks for the kind words! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your time with us. How about we collaborate to make it an exceptional experience? Share your ideas at http://tellusdirect.com/dhc, and let's strive for that fifth star together!
