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.

Definitely worth a try -- several tries, in fact, because the chicken comes in many gradations of heat and it may take you a while to arrive at the one you prefer. The chicken is brined, coated with Indian-style spices, and deep fried, so attaining the right balance of heat and cumin is a matter of personal taste. For me, "hot" is piquant but not challenging, and quite delicious, but YMMV. I found the "sliders" unpleasantly overwhelming because of the heavy sauce and yet also underwhelming because of the insufficient kale s... read more

Finally tried this place after passing it up for other fast food. Our family ordered 3 #3s and a #2. My wife ordered the #2 medium heat , 1 #3 mild and 2 #3s hot. The hot was had just the right heat, I'm glad I didn't get anything hotter. The sliders were a little bit bigger than a normal slider, for my fat ass it was the right amount. We got a side of kale coleslaw and a side of mac n cheese. The slaw needed some spice, it was a little bland for my taste. The mac n cheese tasted like they used whole wheat pasta to make it b... read more
