When you want the best Crispy Chicken you've ever eaten, Top Restaurant is your answer. They have an extensive Asian menu with authentic home recipes. All items are made fresh, as you order. To work here, you must be a family member. They guard their recipes and preparation techniques carefully. They take personal pride in every meal that they create. These are a few of the meals that I like to order… mixed BBQ chicken katsu, teriyaki chicken, spam rice, fried rice, spring rolls, gyoza pork, beef and chicken. The hamburger and the cheeseburger are exceptional here.  The menu is so varied that I think I could eat here everyday for 6 months without repeating a dish!  Located just east of Allen Avenue, in a small shopping area. The parking lot is always available. I am usually able to park right in front of the restaurant. I like to call ahead and order. They are extremely busy some days and times.  I enjoy supporting this great family enterprise!

Delicious. No dine in available, but I recommend eating it asap. Chicken katsu curry, fried chicken, and the spam musubi were fantastic. The lady operating the register was very nice. Was about 20 minutes from time of order to pickup. 10/10 gonna go back. All the sauces were great too. Definitely give it a try if you're near by

Ordered the BBQ chicken and chicken katsu combo with an egg and spam musubi. Everything was prepared just the way I expected, and the result was delicious. It's a must try!

Great friendly aunty that reminds you of a family friend. Good food as well, the crispy fried chicken was especially delicious as well. Just remember there's no inside dining.

Hi ,
I have been going since about 2012. I love the food and owner Lily and her husband are so nice. I hadn't been in a long time , so went today. But i usually order the Indonesian rice or Loco Moco (comes w lots of gravy , rice and macaroni salad ) , and Thai iced tea but wanted a cheeseburger today :) only thing is i miss the indoor eating. Otherwise i would go , at least every other week. :)

Fantastic! Other places should visit here and take notes. “Top” is literal, this is the best chicken around.
