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.

Very solid. Service is okay but food is good. A lot of food given. I recommend to the chicken lovers.

Food and customer service was great!!! The only thing I had a problem with was the way the chicken made my stomach feel and the way it came out. Honestly some of the best chicken chicken I have tried if they find a way to fix the stomach problems I would gladly eat here every day.

We ordered this for lunch at my workplace and everyone thought it was really tasty. What I liked the most was that the spice level was very accurate and caters to all levels of spice so that was really cool. I would definitely recommend trying if you haven't already.

Food was OK but definitely didn't live up to the hype. Chicken was juicy but lower on flavor than I would have liked and the fries were pretty soggy.

GET RID OF YOUR PLASTIC BAGS!!! Service could definitely be improved but I guess it's worth it cause the it was all delicious. Vibes are weird but no biggie if you are just trying to get a solid fried chicken sandwich!

I was so excited watching this place being built out. Someone really invested in this spot. Unfortunately after the third time I gave them a chance, I couldn't do it again. Not bad. But definitely not good. I bought all of my employees lunch from them the last time. The best praise I got was that it was "alright". Several, meaning more than three of them, didn't enjoy the food at all. Oh well. Lots of chicken in town, but not from here.
