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.

terrible experience - food was mid as expected based off the customer service. we came on Drake’s birthday and the cashier rudely told part of our group that we weren’t selected for the free sliders and took the promo off, when the people before and after us clearly “were selected.” would be fine but the portion size was poor as well - would recommend a different chicken place instead. save your money
I called them to ask if I can have extra pickles with my order and they gave me soo much (even though they didn’t have to give me any) they also left a cute note
Disappointing. I’ve been to various locations of Dave’s hot chicken in and out of the Bay and I’ve never experienced such issues with the food before until today. I know this is a new location and opinions are subject to change, but unfortunately this is how I feel. Customer service was great, the person who took my order was friendly, responsive, and helpful.

I loved everything this is the chicken sandwich I have been waiting for my entire life The fries are super crispy I tried the #2 with my partner with a small soda and it rounded out to about $10/person! Will be back
Went here for very spicy chicken, so I ordered a reaper hot slider, and a reaper hot tender. I had to sign a release to say I wanted chicken that hot. It was about as hot as a Tai food restaurant, very spicy, but not sign a release spicy. I was happy with the spicyness. The chicken was juicy, and had a thin crispy coating, but was a little too salty for me. The fries were a 10 out of 10. Unlimited refills for the soda with two types of diet cokes. Next time I will chose sliders over tenders and always get the fries.
