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.

Chicken sliders are good as always. I went with the "hot" level sauce. I'm pretty sure that's my limit. They have four basic combo meals, see menu pics attached. I'm not a fan of their fries, which are kind of dull. They really need ketchup. Parking can be dicey as there are a lot of restaurants in the same strip mall. There's also a huge City Sports gym right there! It's clean and fairly well kept. I've always been able to find seating. I think they have seats outside too. Workers are cordial.

The food was great although the first time I tried it I didn't like the spicy one personally I went back and got the no spice and it was so good and buttery. The sauce is great as well and the coleslaw. The vibe is a traditional southern chicken place. 10/10

Generous serving of chicken in my loaded fries. Shakes are real good too, just a little pricey. Overall well seasoned and filling.
