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 menu is straightforward but satisfying, featuring hand-breaded chicken tenders and sliders available in seven heat levels, from "No Spice" to the intense "Reaper." Each combo typically includes pickles, kale slaw, and a slice of white bread or a soft potato bun. Many patrons praise the chicken for its crispy exterior and juicy interior. Service amazing. Sherry is amazing aswell

When you need to get your body to move there's coffee or hot chicken or cheese. Take you pick. On fries or a sando? Who cares it's hot chicken and it's dang good. Get extra queso for sure. 2. And don't give up potatoes if you are Irish. That's just dumb. Learn from history. The Service and Ambiance is to die for. Sign your name if you find the red light in the bathroom. It's not a camera ladies take a duce in peace.
