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.

Super excited I found one close to work, I love this place. Always consistent, flavors on point. Generous portions. Service was fast, ordered online and it was ready when we came to pick up. Definitely mix the sauce with honey, gives your food that extra "WOW"! Service is always great, the staff is nice and helpful.

BOMB A** CHICKEN!!!! better than popeyes's, KFC, churches.. etc. i'm never buying chicken anywhere else again, this will be my go to place for chicken!! mild & hot levels aren't that crazy spicy, i recommend trying those spice levels if you are open to flavor if not stick to no spice, the chicken was cooked perfectly! the PM fryer/ cook knows what he is doing!!!

The food is excellent. TikTok marketed it very well. The amount of food for number 3 vs canes, Dave's hot chicken is reasonable. Canes too overpriced for some little nuggets. The atmosphere is the restaurant is clean. The service was A1. Friendly as soon as I walked into and the fact they asked you first timer and explain you the menu. I highly recommend this spot!

Food was great! customers were very friendly and definitely will be coming back. Dave's sauce is also better than Chic-fila sauce and canes sauce
