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.

The restaurant is open and airy. The service is a little on the slow side and I thought that I Only ordered a chicken sandwich. The food was hot and the pickles were hardy but compared to Hangry Joes Hot Chicken in Waldorf, Md there is no comparison. The sandwiches are small, the chicken breast looked like a chicken tender in size and the portions of shoestring fries are small for the cost of $15. The sandwich had no flavor but the fries were seasoned perfectly. Sadly, I couldn't spend that kinda cash to eat here.

Good flavor, hot was plenty of heat. Me and my daughter both got the meal with one slider and one tender. Sliders are bigger than a typical slider you would think of. The Dave's sauce was good and a must for the fries for sure. Service was good. Ambiance was basic but the inside was very clean.

Our company always buys us lunch to show appreciation and we get to choose a place we would like to try. This one was new to us and let's just say better than chic fila chicken. You get to choose your heat preference and the sliders are a great size! The chicken was so good and not dry at all. Pretty tender but not fatty. This has to be the best chicken sandwich I have ever tried. It did not leave you in a food coma or bloated right after. It was the perfect platter to keep me full all day. They also have slushes that look a... read more

These chicken sliders were so delicious. Im usually not a cold slaw fan but on this sandwich, with all the spices from the chicken. Then, the pickles. It complimented well. I got medium and hot. Both were delicious. But I definitely enjoyed the medium better. The flavors were just right and so was the spice. New found favorite spot. The cheese fries could of been better. Overall, delicious.
