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.

I'll kick it off by saying I'm not very good with spicy. I like it, however my mouth just doesn't cooperate. Started with mild tenders and sandwich to gauge. Everything was fantastic. I'm still baffled how they get all of the flavor you associate with spicy food into a seasoning that isn't hot! Mild had no heat for me just great flavor. That being said the jump from mild to hot is night and day. That hot tender was also delicious and not initially that hot but boy did the heat creep up on me. Not only did it creep up on me i... read more
Nice looking spot, my favorite joint for Nashville style Hot Chicken will always be "king of the coop" Tampa. This was surprisingly good especially for something considered a fast food stop. My only 2 complaints are waiting for your order. Even on non busy days in the dining room after you order and pay, they give you a pager when your food is ready. Both times at non busy periods it was almost 15 minutes to get my order. Both times I went, the cashier had the personality of a cactus. Very edgy matter of fact and looked like... read more

Very good chicken! This is like a spicy, southern Raising Cane's. The food was very yummy, they allow you to pick your own spice level so everyone's happy. Service was very fast and friendly.
Excellent flavor! Just the right heat and sweet. Wait was a bit long, due to the grand opening, but was well worth it. Definitely be back.
Damn good chicken & it's affordable. Definitely worth a stop by if you haven't given it a try. Chicken is crispy & crunchy on the outside, tender on the inside & packed with flavor. Pull up!
The food is FANTASTIC!! My favorite is mild tenders and substitute cole slaw for fries. Ordering online is easy & you have the option to add or delete items from your order. The staff is very friendly, too, which makes this an awesome addition to our Tampa area.
Chicken pieces are big! I am use to thinking sliders are small portion for kids. These are full size pieces. It wasn't dry. The Mac and cheese is good. Place is clean. Hot was not hot. The one thing I wish they did was change the oil more often.
One of the best chicken places I've ever been to. Slider is so good and the sauce is a must on the food. Fries are crispy and fluffy. Staff was nice and had the food done relatively quick. Hot flavor was a perfect spice for the chicken. I would definitely recommend going and checking this place out. Number 3 is a must.
