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.

There are some clear pros and cons to this restaurant or I would give it a 5. First the pros: the food is FANTASTIC! I had to think about it for about a second when deciding that this is the best chicken sandwich (they call it a slider and I have no idea why because it is much bigger than any slider I have seen) that I have ever had! Don't let the hot fool you because they have everything from no spice to super hot. I got mild. It comes with pickles, slaw and the most fabulous sauce I have ever had. Yes, better than C... read more

I was skeptical but the food turned out to be quite good! The service was great. Workers were very friendly and helped us decide what to get since it was our first time there. Typical college town restaurant with kids coming in and out. It was clean, the food was came out quick and hot and everyone was friendly! Can't ask for much more in a small, quick service spot near campus!

Hands down the BEST Chicken sandwich I've had in a long time. The whole time I was eating it I was like damn. I'm surprised it wasn't more people lined up it was basically empty! Their menu is simple but very easy to order from. I had the one tender and a mild chicken sandwich. It was so good and the right amount of spice. Their Dave's sauce is literally so good. The fries were perfect and the seasoning on them was bomb. I will definitely be back.

Chicken sliders are actually huge! One is more than enough. Chicken tenders are huge also. I prefer medium to hot-it is quite hot. Fries and shakes are great

My order was good, I chose the Sliders. The chicken was hot, seasoned well ( the menu is accurate on spiciness) Service was efficient and cheerful. I did not try any of the sides, Just the sandwiches. The menu is very limited, which is probably helpful to focus on predictable quality The prices were pretty steep, probably would go elsewhere if I was desperate for 2 small chicken sandwiches for 16 dollars. I get it, theres inflation and quality ingredients arent free- I personally dont value a chicken sandwich that highly I... read more

We came in and placed a to go order. My initial impression of the restaurant was that it was very clean. The team members demeanor was overall the highlight. They were friendly and out going. We got home and came to the determination that they put the wrong chicken on certain sandwiches, despite the labels being correct. I ordered my own chicken and my husband got hot. They definitely switched the chicken on our orders. Mine was much hotter than his. We were unable to switch, because he got she's on his sandwich and I di... read more
