For those on the West Coast, Hattie B's recently opened in Las Vegas at the Cosmo.

For those on the West Coast, well LA, we actually have access to incredible hot chicken in Howlin' Rays. The chicken definitely stays true to the Nashville original and they have the lines to prove it (peak is like 3 hours).

It's apparently now a thing here (LA):

To give Howlin Ray's some credit, they did a pop-up night here in Nashville with 400 Degrees (one of the highest regarded places) and it was incredibly packed and successful. Next time I'm in LA, I will be at Howlin Rays!

Not sure if things have calmed down in the last year, but get ready for 2-3 hour lines.

i went to howlin rays a few times when it opened (the line was “only” 15-30 mins long then). it’s delicious but the line is way too long now to go regularly. i switched to dave’s for a while but that’s now got a long line too. luckily new options have popped up and maybe will tame those crazy lines at howlin rays eventually.
