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.

After about a year of driving by and wondering how the hot chicken was, I recently made it by and grabbed some takeout--the #4 slider meal. I've had both the hot and medium levels, and there's quite a difference in spice level even though it's only one level up/down. Moving forward, I'll be going with the hot level which for me, is right on point. It's a great fast option if you're in the area, and chicken itself was very flavorful/was crispy.

The tenders were juicy and not dry at all, but the medium wasn't spicy in the least? And it was really salty so I don't know if they put too much paprika or cayenne pepper or what, but it got saltier after each bite. The sauce tasted good though, reminds me of raising canes. Fries were way too salty. Wait time is alright. My stomach started to hurt after the first tender so idk if I would come back.

Delicious, Crispy Hot Chicken! The fries are always on point here crispy outside and soft inside. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and the slaw is delicious and refreshing on the sandwich.
