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 food is not good. I got food poisoning after I eat it. I would not come back here anymore. I threw up 2 times around 7pm today (8/24/2024). I am not coming back here anymore! Please do not go here unless you want food poisoning!

I was starving, so I tried this today. It was horrible. The flavor on the chicken was not good at all. The french fries were OK. I am sad that I decided to get this for lunch

Food . Fries were mediocre at best. Chicken Slider: Good bread, nice flavor and texture breast. Good extra condiments. Cooked perfectly. Atmosphere: Horrible. Loud brassy music much like you would find in a bar. Flat surfaces everywhere bouncing the sound around. Chairs are metal and not comfortable. Not made for a relaxed meal but sometimes designers are just visual.

The absolute longest wait every time. It doesn't matter they always say "someone called out". The order today from the register took 33min. It's absolutely crazy.

Slowest service I've seen for an empty fast food restaurant. Waiting 20 minutes for two tenders to come out.
