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.

Mini chicken sliders were perfect! The fries could have been more hot and fresh, but I picked up the order 15 mins before closing. Mac and cheese is decent, I would skip next time though
