Founded in 2018 by David Mkhitaryan, Angry Chickz began as a 900-square-foot storefront in East Hollywood, California. Driven by a passion for bold, spicy flavors, Mkhitaryan crafted a unique Nashville hot chicken recipe that quickly gained popularity.
Today, the brand is headquartered in Sherman Oaks, CA, and has expanded to 29 locations across California, Nevada, Arizona, and Texas.
Angry Chickz offers a streamlined menu featuring chicken tenders, sliders, and bowls, all customizable with varying spice levels—from "Country" (no heat) to "Angry," which requires a signed waiver due to its intense heat. This focus on quality and simplicity has resonated with customers, fueling the brand's rapid growth.
In 2023, Angry Chickz began franchising, aiming to share its fiery flavors with a broader audience. The brand emphasizes a culture-first approach, seeking franchisees who are committed to community engagement and operational excellence.

Angry Chickz offers a structured and multi-layered training program for its franchisees and their staff to ensure consistent brand standards and operational excellence across all locations.
Angry Chickz offers its franchisees a defined "Protected Area" where certain competitive restrictions apply. Within this area, and as long as the franchisee is in compliance with all agreements, the franchisor agrees not to authorize or operate another dine-in restaurant using the Angry Chickz brand. The Protected Area is typically defined geographically—often covering a population of around 40,000—but it can be smaller in densely populated urban areas.
However, the Protected Area does not provide full exclusivity. Angry Chickz reserves the right to engage in various operations both within and outside the Protected Area, including through non-traditional venues (like airports or stadiums), online platforms, and other distribution channels.
Franchisees are not protected from catering, delivery, or mobile sales conducted by the franchisor or other franchisees, meaning competitive activity may still affect their territory even without a physical restaurant nearby.
