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 yummy food! Awesome staff interaction and cool place. Cool graffiti . Easy to order on line and easy and quick pick up! We love this place! Great location!
I am a huge fan of their chicken tenders and sliders, so of course I had to order both! I actually haven't been to this location before so decided to stop by on my way home. Parking is a little tough in the area since it is in the heart of downtown. I ordered online and waited at least 20 minutes before it was ready. Not sure if it was ready before then since I was one out of the two customers there. Turns out my order was underneath the counter. Also, the app didn't indicate that it was ready, but I decided to ask since I ... read more
The chicken was juicy and tender but calling it "hot" chicken is a stretch. I ordered the chicken sandwich hot and there was hardly any spice to it. I wouldn't even call it a mild. Fine place to stop for lunch, but don't expect it to be spicy.
DELIVERY only review - We were craving chicken and decided to try Dave's Hot Chicken - they are popping up everywhere and each time I drive by one I tell myself to try it.

Very solid lunch spot. The interior is spotless and there are plenty of seating options including an adorable child sized bar seating area toward the front. Staff is friendly and the menu is super simple - the cauliflower options are kind of hidden but they are there. For the chicken spice they tend to skew a little mild so the medium was perfect for people like me, that don't necessarily need their lips to burn. Hot is good for those that like the spice amped up a bit to start feeling the burn. The slider was very good... read more
Food was quick. Always delicious every time I go. The cashier was nice and informative. I really enjoy the chicken sandwiches here
This was a food bucket list place. We had a chicken strip and a slider with fries. We also ordered the mac and cheese. First the service was great. Everyone was friendly, the person who took our order told us how long the wait would be, and was super attentive. I was worried when I first saw the chicken because it's all red -- that spells flaming hot! Ordered the medium spice (4th level) and could have gone one more up. The chicken was really crispy, and had a lot of paprika flavor. The crinkle cut fries were nice and ... read more
