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.

Food was great! Definitely one of the better places around to get chicken. Service was fast and friendly. Dining area was clean. Not a tin of menu options but it wasn't a bad thing. I want my chicken place serving chicken, not sushi. Only 1 bathroom working and wasn't the cleanest... 4 out of 5 stars. Will definitely eat here again.

First time customer ordered online pick up was a breeze I ordered the slider and fry combo medium heat thought it was amazing, nice amount of heat and cold slaw. Wife got the mild. She was impressed also by the nice sized slider, slaw and pickles. Also got a side of chicken nuggets to sharewith the dog. All in all I thought the chicken hit all the notes tender, juicy right amount of slaw,crispy crinkle cut fries with just the right amount of salt. Would definitely hit them up again good food, good value.

I stopped in on a quiet Tuesday afternoon for some lunch. I ordered a medium single slider and small top loaded fries. The fries were better than the slider as the 3 chicken pieces and crispy fries were actually hot, whereas the tender in my slider was barely room temp. With the time that the order took to come out, you'd think the tender would be at least warm. My order was for "here"/eat in, but they were both oddly boxed up. 

Business response:

Appreciate your detailed feedback, Diana! We'll share your notes with the team—sounds like we missed the mark on that slider temp. Hope your next visit is spot-on!

I got the combo with a tender and slider. Both were medium level of spice. Unfortunately, I couldn't detect any level of spice or heat. Maybe I should have gotten hot or the hottest spice level to be able to get the heat I was looking for. Otherwise, the chicken was crispy and not dried out. However, I felt like I needed to dip the chicken and slider in the sauce that was included to get flavor. Lastly, the fries were nicely seasoned. All in all, not sure if it was memorable enough to come back... 

Business response:

Thanks for your honest review, Jae! Sounds like we didn’t hit the spice level you were hoping for—maybe a hotter level next time will bring the heat!
