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.

If you're looking for a delicious tray of spicy chicken, then this is certainly it. The tenders were crisp and juicy, and I probably could've gone up a spice level from medium. Fries were good, and the bread was nice because I could make little tender tacos. No issues with the quality of the food. My rating is lower on cost effectiveness. Comparing it to the hot chicken place I go to all the time back home in Pittsburgh, Dave ties on quality but loses on portion size at the same price point. Nine bucks there gets me three t... read more
A good fast casual experience. I would highly recommend adding honey to the sliders! Love that they provide extra pickles and sauce without you having to ask. They also let you order different spice levels in a single order. I got the two sliders meal with one medium and one hot. (Note that the hot is a significant step up in spice from the medium!) Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating (dog-friendly) with umbrellas. The servers were very friendly and enthusiastic. (Shout out Laura M!)
Best fast chicken we have ever had. Very clean, respectful and nice staff. Manager makes sure everyone is having a pleasant experience. Chicken and food is cooked perfectly and amazing. Will make this a frequent spot to come back to.
We visited this location and found it to be absolutely superb. Despite the higher prices, it is worth every penny😉 I highly recommend this place! Everything was awesome, even the employees🎯
I think I know what a good service is today. I ordered a reaper spicy tender and the lady that does the cashier was really nice. After the meal, I told her that it was really spicy and she insisted on giving me a milkshake for free! Great food, great service + good environment!
