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.

I went there today on Wednesday afternoon June 25th, 2025. The staff today was outstanding. The person taking the order was extremely nice, and the meal was humongous and cooked perfectly. The chicken portion was huge and I asked for mild seasoning. It was a perfect mild. It was like he'd be a delicious spice flavor that was not overly hot.

Not as good as Angry Chickz. I have tried a lot of hot chicken and Dave's is good but not great. The Dave's sauce is literally just mayo. I was not impressed at all. The staff was not that friendly either. I'll try it again but in OC we have better options, Crimson Coward, Angry Chickz, Zach's hot chicken are all better choices
Great service, greeted when I came in. Order came out in good time, clean store. accommodated my order to my liking since I couldn't at the kiosk.
Grate food and service. Right when you walk in you are greeted by very nice workers. The food is filling an extent.
Very good service and food, logan and clay did a great job. Place really well taken care of very sanitary.
Well, the food was quite tasty to say the least. At the same time it was served fast and aesthetically. My only qualm is the fact that they closed the tables outside before the inside ones and all of the indoor tables were taken so we didn't have many places to sit. Solid experience however.
The food came quickly and it was very delicious. We also had great customer service. There are many options to choose from here and all of them are great.
sooooooooooooooooooooo yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!
food was amazing, very well maintained restauran, very welcoming guests, and fast food service!
