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.

I had never been to Dave's Hot Chicken, so when they opened this location I decided to try it. Although it was day one, so I waited for an hour in the drive thru line, I ordered online while waiting so it was ready when I got to the front. I got a slider meal, medium heat. It was really good. The fries were excellent with lots of seasoning, and the slider was bigger than most full sized sandwiches elsewhere. The chicken was really good. The Dave's sauce is really good, get extra.
