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.

Clean establishment, fast service and good food! Stopped in because I had heard about this place but never got a chance to try so I came here and wasn't disappointed! Chicken tenders were so crispy and man, they were NOT kidding about the reaper spicy level. Seriously, only do it at your own risk because it will not be fun for a couple of hours after... but ya know, if you're like me and doing it because you know you can, have fun! 

Business response:

You’ve got us all pumped up over here with your kind words! A massive thank you for the 5 stars. Here’s to more great times ahead!

Another conTender in the chicken game. Big juicy crispy pieces of chicken on soft buns , super crunchy slaw and pickles with Dave's sauce drizzled on it .you can pick your seasoning level from no seasoning to reaper. I tried mild and no seasoning so I can taste the chicken and the sauce and both were delicious. Fries were seasoned nice and crispy as well. Place had plenty of seating , and some fountain drinks. Fast friendly service. Defiantly a good stop for a good chicken sandwich.
