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.

We were pretty excited to try this place because of the raving reviews. We got in line around 11 PM on a Saturday night which was out the door. It moved pretty fast and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. We got it to go but ate it right away when we got home. I got a single tender medium heat ($4.69) and it was just okay. It paled in comparison to all the other fried chicken we've been having in LA so I was sorely disappointed. I tried some fries from my brother's combo and it was also underwhelming.

simple but appetizing menu! this location did not accept cash which was a little inconvenient but i am assuming this helps the fast service and quick moving lines that keep this place busy! restaurant was clean and service was fast!

Would love to give it more stars, but I like coleslaw on my sandwiches and kale slaw ain't it! Pretty good chicken but won't go back when Hot Chick's right here too with good slaw and great chicken also.

Chicken covered in Cayenne Pepper isn't exactly the best bang for your buck. Super long wait times and a generally uncomfortable dining atmosphere. The staff is nice though so don't take it out on them.
