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.

Five stars. Highly recommended when you need a quick bite! After a bit of adjustment from my first visit, and what I consider to do better music to eat to, I'd say, that overall this place is a great fast food chain. Serving up a perfectly cooked bit of chicken for El cerrito locals who love chicken sandwiches and sliders, the staff here is very nice and respectful. I have a couple of notes for corporate: 1: Don't play heavy metal music or drill rap. It takes away from the dining experience. 2: Don't skimp on the fries. ... read more
First time here as I was just visiting in town. Food was fast to come out and staff was very friendly. I got a slider and tender combo both hot. Was kinda heavy on paprika but still oddly sweet. Not my favorite, but I think I'd like it a lot more if got a more mild flavor or even spicier depending on what seasonings they use. The chicken itself was very moist and well made. I'd definitely come by again if in the area.
Liked the music and the staff there were really friendly! Shoutout to Rosario and Pet. Food came hot and fresh. Would 100% come here again!
The staff was very welcoming. I love their chicken Seasoning on it. Their milkshakes are surprisingly very good. This place attracts a lot more of the younger crowd, ye they are well behaved.
The chicken was good, although thicker than I usually like. There were a lot of spice levels so easy to dial in to your taste. I liked the slider better than the plain strip. Staff was really nice (shoutout to Linda). Maybe not the best chicken in the bay, but would eat here again
