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.

The fries are out of this world! Such a cool spot-- thought two sliders wouldn't be big enough, but my goodness one was enough just for lunch! Chickens a bit thick for the slider bun, but the heat and taste is there. Dave's sauce is 10/10b

So I found this place in NJ last summer. Had a grueling (lol) day of shopping and was starving. This place was right next to Home Goods. I rarely do this but I just tried it without looking at reviews. I walk in and it was packed. I was thinking this is a good sign. It was DELISH!!! I am a lightweight and get the mild. It has just the right amount of kick without it burning your mouth. It's always perfectly cooked and the food is always hot. The staff was pleasant. I have been eating there ever since. I go to the... read more

Uffffff - This is kitchen is: "muy delicioso" I have been dying to try this kitchen ever since it opened up and unfortunately the line was always out the door. Well, today was my lucky - and I have to say that it was worth the wait. The flavor in the chicken is unique and have some cajun flavor to it. I only had one slider (after I finished I realized I could have gotten for that second one) but it was delicious. The combination of the cole slaw, pickle and that chicken, is an explosion of flavor in your mouth. Love it!!!!... read more
