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.

Went out of my way to stop here after flying into Houston. Incredible chicken, outstanding staff and clean establishment! Make it a point to search for one of these anytime you travel and/or be on the lookout for one popping up near you on their website!

This was great!!! The reaper nearly killed me, and I only had a bite I got the mild as well, which was fantastic.

Careful when you order (just 4th from the hottest level) called "hot". My lips burned from cayenne for an hour. Tasted good, so-so service (but what do you want from fast food), and very clean. Noise was SUPER high (being the music and calling out order names on the loudspeaker) etc.

Decided to give it a shot. Have to say it's some pretty darn good chicken. I absolutely loved the fact that you can choose your hotness level. The sauce is also really good. There is also a free beverage or shake when you check in to Yelp! Definitely a place to try out

Hot Chicken - oh yes you can always count me in, I love that every version of hot chicken across the country is different so it's my mission to try them all if the opportunity presents itself, although the genre is the same it's still about the choices and the presentation so even though I knew somewhat what to expect I still had to decide on the heat level. This is a really a cute restaurant that's built quite narrow in design which I'm guessing was intentional to allow space for the private parking lot which is somewhat g... read more

Enjoy this tasty, spicy, and great value place. Love the special sauce, 2 hot chicken sandwiches, and fries with the #2. Also there's a first responder and health care discount as well. Becareful with the spiciest flavor since there's a consent form required. Be ready for the consequences if ordering it.

The chicken sandwich was good. Got the very hot version (second to the highest spicy level) and it was very spicy to me (but my tolerance for spicy is very low haha). Also thought the burger would be bigger, their pics look like it would be bigger. I like their sauce. Surprised the meal didn't come with a drink. The Mac and cheese as well as the fries were ok, like a regular Mac and cheese/fries you can make at home. Milkshake was very sweet. Place is a worth a try if you're looking for an alternative to chickfila. One free... read more

Always consistently delicious. I usually go to the one on Westheimer. I love the flavor blend. The skin never comes(separates) off the chicken. The service is always great.
