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 JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and opene... read more

Food was very good. We had the Cauliflower and the chicken, both were tasty. Food was ready quickly. I liked the old music!
One of the best chicken places ever! It's simple but hits all the flavors! The service was above and beyond. Incredibly friendly and kind. Also a very clean restaurant. I'm definitely coming back!
Ordered ahead. Inside was very clean. Service was quick and fine. Food was good. I went to the E Ridge location.
Closest thing to Nashville hot chicken you will get in this area. Once you get to the extra hot, it's painful.
I had initially ordered fries unseasoned and the wait was a bit long, I had just assumed that it was because they were unseasoned but Jojo was super sweet and ended up giving me a free milkshake for the wait! The food was very good as well!
Not a fine dining establishment by any stretch, and it's always insanely busy. That being said, the food is worth the hype, fries are just overseasoned. Music is too loud, and combined with the industrial acoustics reflecting off concrete and the sheer amount of people in here, you can't hear anyone else you went with. But I'll be back for the chicken
Awesome food here. Ordered the regular, Nashville style, and also took the reaper challenge of which required a release form to be filled out. Flavors were great, Dave's sauce is no joke. Fries were seasoned a bit too much, but still good. Would def and will def go again.
Ordered the sliders (hot and extra hot), took a bite, was disappointed for a sec but smiled the second that heat crept up on me. I really like this spice blend they use, having lived in Louisiana. Also ordered the 10-piece bites (no heat), and they were delicious. The parking lot was packed, especially with the coffee shop next door, so the drive thru was much appreciated.
We were curious after passing by this restaurant several times. The food is good overall. I ordered fried cauliflower and the rest of the family ordered the chicken. In total we spent around $80-$90 between meals and drinks. The portions are huge and in many instances can possibly be shared. The slider, much to my surprise, was enough for a meal. The star of the show was the kale salad. It was fantastic. We also ordered shakes. They were not good and pricey for the quality. You will find far better at Shake Shack or Abbots d... read more
