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

Went on a Monday night and it wasn't too busy inside. There were a lot of takes out orders being prepared. It took about 10 minutes for my order to be ready. I ordered the #1 which came with two chicken fingers, bread and fries. The chicken tenders were pretty good. I ordered them mild. They weren't the crispiest or most moist but the seasoning stood out with the touch of smokiness, mild spice and slight sweetness. They were also pretty big but given the price they should be. The fries were also really good. They were cris... read more

Yea- this is good stuff. The bites reming me of chick-fil-a, all white meat with a light fry. The strips are thicker than a frozen tyson, but not quite as thick as a breast you would buy at the super market. Really love the fries from here- nice and crispy and great seasoning. Pickles are excellent. I've done all the flavors up to hot, which was very tolerable, so if you like spice don't be afraid to go at least extra hot. I'll try that and reaper soon, I'm a fan.

Waited a few weeks ti try this place out to let the hype die down and not having to wait awhile to order and get our food. Chicken is seasoned well and the prices are fair for what you get. I will say there is a big jump in spice level from medium to hot- perhaps it was just the piece we got. Mild is good- but no spice on it for those who might think it's southern fried chicken mild spice. :)

Okay, WOW. This is really phenomenal chicken. The tenders are HUGE and juicy and spiced with paprika as well as hot pepper. The heat and flavor were incredible. The restaurant was clean and the staff were friendly and fast. It took less than 10 minutes to get our order.
