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.

First time in, we all got the not chicken, cauliflower bites, husband and daughter did no spice. I got the light mild and it was delicious. They were perfectly cooked perfectly seasoned. The crinkle fries were perfect. We will definitely be coming back to try the sliders and the mac & cheese And service was wonderful fast and very friendly.

Good flavor and size but it's never the same, and you don't get the heat level you ask for Either to hot or not hot enough

Sorry no pictures because there was nothing left for me to take a picture of... the chicken was hot and juicy... crinkle fries with a delicious dipping sauce. I'm a coke fan and loved that they offer coke products. I'm bummed I didn't go for the medium heat... I got the mild heat level... Next time I will get try the medium heat.

We love the food here. First time we tried it, we came three times that week. Our only complaint is the napkin situation. You have to ask the front counter employees for napkins, and they usually hand you only three, super thin tissue paper like napkins. With this kind of food you need more then that, and better quality. First time we tried the drive thru today, and received no napkins. Guess we should have asked.
