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.

Dylan waited on me and he was friendly and helpful. The word you need to remember is HOT. The mild is about a 1 on the spicy scale. The medium is about a 3.5 heat, the hot is about a 5 and the very hot is about a 7.5. I can't imagine how hot Reaper is. 🤪 I will be ordering the medium version from this point on. It was perfect for me. The Mac and cheese was good and the fries had a good flavor. The chocolate shake was wonderful. I definitely needed it when I tried the very hot! I recommend stopping here and giving it ... read more
I ordered online, our first time eating this chicken, and I am glad that i erroneously ordered the lite- mild instead of the reaper. And we also ordered medium, hot and extra hot. Medium was as hot as i want to ever get again! I can't imagine how hot the reaper is ... The hot was too hot for me. My husband enjoyed the hot and extra hot, but he too said no reaper for him. We also got the fries, a chocolate milkshake and a Mac n cheese. The milkshake was amazing. Loved that our meal also came with a bread slice and pickles... read more
The food is okay, but it didn’t quite live up to the hype for me. The chicken was flavorful, but the spice level was inconsistent, with some bites much hotter than expected. The portions are decent, but the prices are a bit high for what you get. The fries were average, and the sides didn’t stand out. We stopped at this location while traveling from Washington to the Pocono Mountains, and it felt like more of the same—nothing new or special. The taste didn’t suit me, though it might appeal to others. On the positive side, th... read more
I loved the Dave’s #2 I got! It was extremely delicious and I would definitely recommend it to people who enjoy spicy chicken! The inside of the restaurant was also really unique and aesthetic too!
Loved the vibe, chicken was really good, workers were extra friendly and service was fast. Seems a little pricey, but we'll be back for sure. We ordered "hot" sliders, which I think are close to Chick fil A's spicy chicken, just smaller. Fries and Chocolate shake were great as well.
