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.

Food is consistent and fun to change up the heat level each time. Staff has been great and never rude in my experience.

As this was my first time visiting this restaurant, I was looking for some recommendations. Vanessa, who took my order was very nice and did a really good job explaining the different options and I opted for the mild chicken sandwich with a side of Mac and Cheese. Both were good and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The only thing missing was a cold beer to wash it down, but if you take your food to go, then you can solve that problem on your own.

Dave's hot chicken was great food and even better service. Miranda is so kind, friendly and professional. She greeted us with a genuine smile, was patient as we took forever to order, I then needed a cup for water and then I asked for a spoon, etc. each time I needed something she was so kind and happy to help. I tried to tip Miranda because she went above and beyond what most fast food staff would do but she refused. Please give her a raise. She is very hard working! The dining area was clean and the music is great!

Elizabeth was fast, friendly & knowledgeable. The kale slaw was a good healthy option. Unfortunately the Chicken was not crispy. They have additional seating inside that is less busy than the front area.

Flavor has been consistent each time, tried every heat level and I'd say my favorite flower level would have to be Hot
