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.

Fries were very good. Chicken was ok. I asked if I could try a sauce before I ordered so I would know how hot to get, but they said no. The worst part - the bill. Way too expensive for what you get and for how you get it. And I hate the "tip" guilt they give you when you order (and have to get your own drinks, get your own food, and bus your table).

as a first time customer I'd have to say the employees were very friendly, especially the one that served us. and our food also came very fast the chicken sandwich was a good balance of spicy and seasoned I liked how the coleslaw gave the sandwich a nice crunch I've always been a coleslaw hater but coleslaw in this sandwich changed me hating it, as for the fry's they were well done & very well seasoned. the sause was ok it wasn't what I seemed it to be for me it tasted kinda dilly and peppery but for my first time a really g... read more

Great place and just what I was looking for. I really like this place, the workers were all really kind and informative as I didn't know what this place was all about. I ended up ordering the two sliders with fries. The fries are very good and seasoned really good (I'm not really a seasoned fry guy) but they were great. As for the sliders they to were great. I ordered one hot and one xtra hot , I ate the hot one first AND LET ME TELL YOU it was hot , probably on the limit of my hot tolerance. But it had a really good hot t... read more
