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 chicken sandos are amazing! Don't worry if you can't handle heat. I ordered a medium spice level sandwich and it was completely bearable. I would actually go for hot next time. The fries were also so crispy and perfectly seasoned. I can't get enough of the Dave's sauce!
Chicken was tasty and hot. A little salty but fresh. Food came fast, strips were big. The crust of the chicken was very churchy
Fantastic!! So much flavor and so much food! Me and my wife and we had the two sliders with fries. Dry rub chicken goodness!
food was very juicy and tender but my only bad thing about this is they do not give you a bunch of fries but beside that they do give very fresh and amazing food every time i have got it i have never been dissatisfied.
Ordered and paid online at lunch and it was super easy. Got combo meal with one tender and a slider with fries. The tenders were huge and I really only needed one with the fries, which were super tasty. Wish they had some smaller options for tenders because it was hard to eat the slider but I liked the heat level and the order was ready for pickup when I arrived. Also liked the special dipping sauce. The cost was high (IMHO) and came in just shy of $14 before tip. I'll go again and will order the one piece tender with fries ... read more

Business was clean and bright. Good music choices. Nice being able to choose heat level of chicken. Loved the crinkle cut fries.

So excited to finally get some good hot chicken here in downtown Oakland. The menu is reasonably priced for being located in the downtown area. On my trip today, I saw some homeless person going through the garbage cans inside the restaurant. Thankfully one of the staff kicked him out. Yeah, homelessness is a huge problem in the bay area unfortunately. Other than that, I had a good experience here. Can't wait to come back
This place is located in downtown Oakland and it's only been there for a little over 2 months. I got the 2 sliders with one medium and the other spicy and cheese fries. The meal was SO good. I'm really picky about hot chicken sandwiches and I was very pleased. It's not saucy, it's more of a dry rub that has a special sauce topping. The pickles were crunchy and crisp and the fries were hot and crispy. The fries remind me of zaxbys fries but thinner. The slaw in the sandwich added a fresh element. I highly recommend coming her... read more

Looks delicious! Thank you for the awesome review!
Went on an interesting day where Oakland was having a marathon. Found some street parking a block away. Ordered #2 and a side slider. I didn't realize the #2 was sliders, thought they were just tenders lol. The cashier was kind, efficient, and detailed! Got my order within 10 mins. Got it as takeout. The sliders was saltier side but with the sauce it covered the saltiness of it. Fries were ok maybe if I eat it fresher it would have been more crispy. Overall, I think is a good place if you are craving hot chicken.
