The crispy hainan chicken is the way to go! The white meat was a little dry on the regular hainan plate. Bone broth and Yu choy were great add ons. Overall super delicious

This is on the second floor of the mall close to Nordstrom and past Din Tai Fung. My friend and I came here bc we heard good things about this place. I got the Chicken Noodle Soup with Crispy Hainan Chicken. Honestly, I didn’t think it was anything special. The broth and noodles tasted like something I could get at a cheap Chinese diner. The chicken was pretty good though. There was a generous serving with the chicken. The skin was crunchy and crispy, and perfectly cooked. The meat was juicy.
Parking: It’s inside the Santa Anita mall so there’s lots of available parking.

The all white Hainan chicken with rice was so bland, chicken was just steamed chicken breast, the rice was regular white rice , not authentic at all.

Very good chicken. Hainanese crispy chicken rice was delicious. Highly recommend!
Ive eaten here twice. The first time wasn't memorable and the second time was memorable for the wrong reasons, as the chicken tasted like rubber the second time around. I'm sure it's just a kitchen issue but that shouldnt happen like it did.

It's ok. It use to be better pre covid. Prices went up and they do not take cash only credit cards.

Not sure if there’s a change in management or what but it’s different now. Rice and chicken is so plain. This is one of those restaurants that just don’t taste good anymore after the pandemic.

I love LOVE this place. Especially the crispy version. A must if you're in the mall.

No cucumbers and no soup. The rice with chicken portions depleted. The dark meat are chewy with tendons and hard flavorless rice, which is not typical to the old Side Chick I’ve had multiple times. I see the ownership change along with the menu changes. It’s not the same anymore. It was super yummy with the brown containers.
