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.

#2 costs $15 for 2 Sliders and 1 fry. No drinks. The chicken is good but not great. It tastes like every other hype fried chicken slider. The spicy mayo type sauce was really good, I wished I had more. The location has an outside pickup window for app orders so I didn't even get to go inside the restaurant.

Decent food, a bit pricey. Ordered a pickup order. Certain cafeteria food aesthetic. Order was made faster than the estimated time.

The workers were great and the food came out quickly. The store is very spacious and clean. I got the spicy chicken and it didn't really taste spicy. After awhile I felt the outside of my lips tingled, but it wasn't spicy. The chicken was fresh but didn't amazed me. The seasoning on the chicken was a bit on the sweeter side in my opinion. Overall I would come here again.

2.5 stars. It was okay. I ordered the Dave's #3- 1 Tender and 1 Slider. Positives: The service was friendly and fast on a busy weekday lunch. The restaurant was nice and clean. I LOVED the fries--super crispy and well seasoned. I also enjoyed the sauce they give! And if you ask for more they'll give it to you!! Also if you're a pickle fan they also give lots of pickles. The chicken pieces are also pretty big too. Cons: Thought the chicken was way too salty. Everyone else in my group also agreed that it was too salty. I al... read more

I'm a fan of this chicken, and the place is nice and clean and the peeps nice and friendly. I stick with lite mild and its perfect for me and I like that the spices are a dry blend as opposed to saucy which keeps it from becoming a "hot" mess. I'm never a fan of french fries but these with the spice and ordered extra well done were excellent. I'll for sure go here again.

Chain for chicken sandwiches. Pretty good chicken and fries but kind of pricey for a chicken sandwich. Lots of parking but may be busy as the city sports has a lot of people going. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating as well.
