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.

Spent $25 for #1, & 2 8oz Shakes. "Mediocre" is stretching the overall quality of the food. We called the Dale Mabry Location. The woman who answered apologized & agreed that their prices are expensive. Will never return or recommend this place. Save your $$ for something worthwhile. Ripoff!!!!

Had lunch here and purchased the chicken strip meal. Very expensive for what you get. The chicken strips were generic, dusted with a heavy rub. The fries were pretty average. I think I spent $18 for the 3 strip meal. Not worth it. Can't recommend...

This has to be one of the most overrated places I've ever been to. The chicken has no flavor it's just overly breaded and has some spice thrown on it. No idea how it got so popular. If you haven't tried don't bother!

First and foremost, this is excellent chicken. That being said, I just spent 55 minutes in the drive through line. There was 6 cars ahead of me. Granted, it was Friday night and the inside was packed. If it takes an hour to get through six cars, your system has some serious flaws. Do better, Dave's.

This was our son's first visit that he had been anticipating for quite sometime. This was not the same quality that we experienced in Las Vegas. The chicken was extremely thin and over cooked. It was very pricey and disappointing. Would not recommend.
