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.

We love tastebud tinglers!
Cool little place decorated fun and nice employees!! Chicken was great cooked perfectly and the sauces are phenomenal, plus they have crunchy ice!!
I got the 2 tenders with fries (that comes with sliced bread, pickles & Dave's sauce). Ended up going with medium as I like it enjoyably hot but not too hot. Also staff was friendly and inside was very clean.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're so glad that you loved the food and the tour team was able to create a great visit for you
Chicken wasn't what I ordered, , I ordered mild and got no spice. I drove home and didn't want to have to drive back since I was hungry. That being said I have had it before and it was pretty good. Just bummed . Service was ok I am always surprised at how long it takes. I dig the street art on the interior, different for around here. Also the milk shake looks good so maybe that will change my mind hah.

3.25 Stars. Nothing special here. This is a basic place to get chicken and it is no better and no worse than any of the other well known chains, but I would put it a half step above your typical KFC or Popeyes. Basically on par with a Chick-Fil-A. Prices are competitive with what you would pay elsewhere. It is an interesting change of pace but the chicken did not particularly impress me. I have found that Raising Cane, Farmer Brothers and Crimson Coward chicken dishes had more to offer with respect to being a better chang... read more

I've been wanting to try this place ever since it's opened and I pass by it every time I take the freeway. I finally decided to try it out on my way home one day and just picked up an order to go. We got there right when it opened so it was pretty empty, but there were still a couple people in the restaurant. Ordering was simple and the wait wasn't very long. I went simple and ordered the Dave's #1 2 tenders with fries with mild spice. The chicken stayed warm and fresh on the ride home. The best way to eat the tenders is on ... read more

Tried Dave's Hot Chicken today and I give it a 10 out of 10. I got the medium chicken slider and it had just the right amount of kick! The fires were awesome as well as the sauce! Definitely will bring the family back.
Speedy and polite service. Loved the graffiti art atmosphere. The chicken slides are big juicy breast and spicy (hot). My mouth was on !
