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. THE JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and op... read more

Daniel was a great help with suggesting their famous sauce with honey mix. Great service, love the energy he had and appreciate the quick chat. Appreciate your uplifting personality. Good chicken too! Tried hot and it was good, will try extra hot next time.

Came here on a Saturday evening. It was very busy with lots of customers. There's an indoor dining area and some tables outside. I tasted the mild slider. It's much bigger then a traditional slider, more like a chicken sandwich. The spice plus cole slaw adds some really good flavor. The breaded chicken is juicy. The spice adds that extra needed touch.

I asked for extra slaw on my sliders the girl even repeated my order back to me, and it even says it on the receipt ticket on top of the box. I got home was super excited to eat my food open it and it had no slaw whatsoever! So disappointing. I understand y'all get busy. There was nobody there.

Do not order the mini sliders. So bad. Threw them away and got the usual order. Way better. Save your money

I paid more money to order on DoorDash. And pick it up myself, then I do at the store and doordash claims there's no fee that don't make no sense, you guys need to get your stuff fixed

Your TV ads are so disgusting with slop all over the faces of the actors it would make me sick to eat any of the food you offer.

First time here. Be prepared for a LONG wait time. Waited 25 minutes for one meal. I definitely recommend ordering ahead. Food was very good but that wait time is ridiculous. Also they serve the food in plastic takeout boxes even if you're dining in which sucks. Seems super wasteful .
