Chicken Shops near South Pasadena, CA

“El pollo loco is always a great place to go when you want Mexican like food.. I typically get the chicken nachos..it used to be 5.00 and now it's 9.65? Not sure why.. probably changed it.. maybe the chicken.. I don't know.. but the people are always nice.“

“10/10 Best KFC spot, I've been coming for more then 10 years, people at this location are great. Always top tier KFC compared to other KFC stores. 19 times out of 20 food is server on time or earlier shown on the app's timer. Any mistake made is taken care of very fast and the workers are always very nice about it. Love this spot and all the people there“

“I'm here just about every other weekend to get takeout for the family. The Indian flavors really come through in an exciting way. The rotisserie chicken is one of the best I've found in LA, and it's not even the best chicken on the menu. Anything with beans are a must-have.“

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?“

“Fantastic korean chicken, made to order with fresh ingredients. The chicken was delicious and clean tasting - no greasy feeling afterwards.

The owner took the time to talk to us (visitors from Philly) and make fantastic food recommendations for surrounding area. Stop by for the food and stay for a nice conversation!“

“Second time here! First visited after a show at Teragram Ballroom. Here tonight for the Month Bar which is right next door. If you’re from around here or there for shows, please check this place out!

Beautifully crispy chicken and their loaded fries are fantastic. Will be back soon to try new items.“

“Fabulous chicken Sando!!! Absolutely delicious. Everyone is ALWAYS SO FRIENDLY. I try and go as often as I can. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“AMAZING!! THE BEST PLACE IN SOUTH EL MONTE!! TRY THE LOMO SALTADO ANDA THE TIKI FRIES“

“Relax atmosphere, awesome service and good food!“

“Ordered this place on doordash and it was really good. Theres no ½ and ½ button on doordash but i put it in the notes and got half spicy half soy. The wings were fried perfectly. Rendered dry sky and moist well cooked inside. The soy garlic and spicy Korean were delicious. Not too sweet or artificial tasting. The side is what i would describe as a “deep fried side chex mix” it was onion ring, fries and hand cut potato chips. This was a delight and solid market differentiator. I got 8 wing halves total and the website describes the order as 1lb ranging between 6-8 wings. For the price, i liked getting the full 8 wings. Will be a regular.“

“The workers there are very nice and the chicken is sooo crispy and amazing I loved the service and how fast my food got ready i took it home and I live 30 minutes away and when I opened the crispy fried chicken it was still the perfect temperature and still so crispy there sunset sauce and ranch is also soo amazing.“

“It is the best vegan restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. Unfortunately there isn’t one where we live. But anytime I am in CA we always go to the one in Riverside.“

“I ordered a cheeseburger, fries, and a cold drink. The burger was served hot and fresh with a perfectly toasted bun and a juicy, flavorful patty. The fresh vegetables, melted cheese, and delicious sauces created an incredible combination of flavors. Every bite was satisfying and clearly made with quality ingredients. The fries were crispy, golden, and seasoned perfectly.

The service was quick and efficient, and the staff ensured everything was prepared exactly as ordered. The restaurant was spotless, well-maintained, and offered a comfortable dining environment. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were fair for the quality of food and service provided.“

“Chicken is tasty. My only question is why you can only have one flavor per order? We would have spent $60 for the large order to try four flavors. Were told that's impossible. Hello? Even WingStop is capable of delivering multiple flavors in one order.“

“I was looking for a new Chinese fast food place. I was worried about the dishes not being fresh. After looking for some reviews, I found this place. I decided to give it try.Staff was friendly. Menu was pretty clear. The dishes looked good and appetizing. I got the 3 items combo. All tasted good and fresh. I'm happy with the quality which is really important to me.I definitely can recommend this place!“

“Great customer service. Great food. Employees doing really good job.

I feel bad for employees because they have to deal with some really rude customers sometimes.

“Hidden Gem in Pasadena! Very Yum!“

“Tried Dave’s Hot Chicken and it was really good!
The chicken was super juicy with a crispy coating and strong flavor. I got medium spice, which was perfect🤤🤤🤤❤️❤️

Sliders were the highlight, fries were just okay. A bit oily, but definitely worth it for the taste.

Overall, a solid spot for spicy chicken 🍗🔥“

“This place is amazing. Great ambience and all workers were kind and gave Me great customer service. Honestly this place has the best chicken sandwiches and tenders hands down better than raising canes.
The milk shake is phenomenal way better than in n out. I definitely recommend y’all to try this place at least once.“

“Came for the codfish Sando which is available in limited quantity daily. Staff are really friendly and will help you along with your order should you need any help with your order. The fish burger is really good and the tartare sauce they put on it is amazing. Can also order a side of the daybird sauce that they have and it has a really good umami flavor that goes very well with the fries. Would be back again to try the chicken Sando too.“

“This spot sells mesquite grilled chicken as a street stall. Prices are reasonable and their seasoning is SO good. Very good street food.

their chicken was charred and cooked perfectly, still juicy with each bite.

Included is: Grilled peppers, some salsa which was light and easy to dip, grilled tortillas, pickled peppers and onions, Spanish rice, and some of the best beans I've had. Beans were smoky sweet and flavorful with chicharron inside.

Would come back for some bomb grilled chicken that's for sure!

Entire chicken and all the sides were only $23. Cash or zelle accepted

“Absolutely delicious food. Competitive prices, and welcoming atmosphere. The servings were generous; You will not leave here hungry. I highly recommend this establishment and look forward to my next chance to dine here. 👍🏻👍🏻“

“My experience at Ace Burger today was nothing short of amazing! I ordered the chicken tenders, fries, and corn on the cob, and everything was a perfect 10. The chicken tenders especially stood out—they had the perfect amount of spice and breading. On top of the fantastic food, the woman who made the food and the gentleman (I believe they’re the owners) were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful. Their kindness made the visit even more special. Wishing much success to this wonderful place!!

P.S. Food was so good I forgot to take pictures 😂❤️“

“Best service and food, we stopped here on our vacation. Best customer service and really great food, we had burgers, tacos and chicken. Everything was GREAT. I forgot to mention the French fries, they are the BEST fries I've ever had!!“

“One of the best chicken sliders I’ve ever had. The honey based sauce is to die for. The food slaps hard. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.“

“Just Wonderful Place To Eat At“

“Really good Peruvian Food we had the whole chicken 2 of them and 3 Lomo saltados with rice n beans homemade flour tortillas nd all the sauces they had were really good. Delicious grub..“

“I’ve been coming to Savoy Kitchen for a long time, and it’s still one of my go-to spots in the area. We ordered a spread of classics during our last visit, and while the food is still generally good, a few things felt a bit different this time around.

​The Hainan Chicken Rice is what put them on the map. The chicken itself remains incredibly tender and juicy, and the trio of sauces still hits the spot. However, the chicken-to-rice ratio was definitely off on this visit—there was a mountain of rice but a pretty small portion of chicken. More importantly, the rice lacked that incredibly rich, savory chicken broth flavor that used to make Savoy stand out from every other spot. It tasted a bit more muted than before.

​Luckily, the other dishes we tried held up their end of the bargain:

​The Bread: Served fresh and nicely seasoned, though it was on the denser side rather than being light and airy. Still good for snacking on or soaking up extra sauce, just heavier than expected.

​Chicken Pasta: A comforting, simple dish with plenty of tender chicken strips tossed in a light, savory broth.

​BBQ Chicken Pizza: Generously topped with thick slices of chicken, red onions, and plenty of melted cheese.

​Savoy is still a classic, and the meal overall was satisfying. I just really hope they bring back that signature richness to the chicken rice and balance out the portions again!“

“I have been coming here for over a year
2-3x week . Adriana y Adela always treat me great . Greet me by name and prepare my food amazing . I appreciate how clean they keep the restaurant and their energy they bring to this restaurant.“

“Great food priced right! One of our favorites places to eat at’“

“The chicken was freshly prepared with a light, crispy batter. I must admit I would've liked a bit more seasoning on it. My husband wished that there would've been an onion and pickle option for his sandwich, but the hot sauce helped. The place was very clean and well stocked... including the bathroom🎉. My server was kind and helpful... which I needed since I'd never been there.“

“*YUM* is all I have to say!! We adore this place, and friends who have moved away always beg to go here for chicken when they come home to visit. The chicken falls off the bone, their fried tofu is to die for! ������. You cannot go wrong here! But pay attention to their hours. They close mid-day for a few hours.“

“los tacos de cabeza son los mejores que he probado.Las salsas son muy ricas. El agua de jamaica deliciosa!!!!!“
