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.

There's always great food here, but the owner really likes to take care of the guests. My fiancee and I split a 2 slider combo pick up, and they were behind because they ran out of the new cauliflower bites, and some guests wanted it (this was before our pickup order).

Food is always delicious at this location. I used to make the drive up to FV location, but glad this one open closer to home. The staff is usually helpful, friendly & fast. Not once have I had any issues eating there or picking up from there.
