Tokyo Chick

I very nice fried chicken place in Pasadena. I loved that their chickens were really crispy. Not sure how they did it but it was still crispy on the second day of refrigerator. The dessert was very good too. It’s jelly with fruit boba. The price was great for the amount and flavor.

If you can’t find street parking, there’s a lot nearby that costs $11 to park. We were promptly greeted when we walked in. The cashier was patient and answered all our questions. It took a bit for the food to come out. We overheard a worker apologize to another customer for the long wait. We ordered the drumstick bento box and a spicy chicken sandwich combo. They give a good amount of chicken and it’s crispy but it had a very oily taste. The veggies in the bento box had a weird taste, almost as if some other sauce got mixed into it cause the veggies on top tasted different from the veggies on the bottom. Also, the spicy chicken sandwich was not spicy and tasted like they forgot to season it or make it spicy. The bread they used for the sandwich fell apart really easily. My husband said it needed sauce to make up for the missing flavor. They have a self serve sauce bar which was nice but we weren’t wowed by any of the sauces. Check in for a free night light or an iced milk dessert with jelly.

Convenient location! Many people pass by cause their mascot outside is eye catching and funny looking :0) Walked here so I can’t comment on parking. Pricing is average (but the wings are a big size, so it is quality). But they do have some money saving techniques like giving out styrofoam plates instead of paper. They have many sauces to choose from and our favorite were Tokyo Spicy (wasn’t that spicy so I could handle it), Garlic Soy, this other sweet one that I forgot the name, and ranch. Their pickled radish was good too. We also tried their home made strawberry lemonade (a drink came with their food) and it was really good! We ordered the signature crispy in 12 wings. They were cooked really well and it was crispy! It def was hot and fresh. The fries were ok, a little over cooked. But a good addition to dip in the sauces or eat while waiting for the chicken to cool off. We dined there and I have to say, they barely have enough seating (only 3 tables and small bar seating style). Also, be prepared for your clothes to smell like smoke after! Like all the other reviews, I agree the employees are nice. The placement of the lighting and fans is awful. It creates lighting where it feels like you are constantly blinking and could get a seizure because the fan constantly moves in a way where it blocks the light for a second. It was very unpleasant. The bathroom is clean and only one bathroom for all genders.

We came here to eat while attending a TKD match at Pasadena convention center, their chicken sandwich is HUGE! Way bigger than the bun, their fries were tasty, the server was friendly and professional, Their dining area was kept clean though they only have 3 tables, they have a big enough area for more table. If you check in on yelp while there, you can get a free chick nightlight.

Chicken was crispy!! I love it! It also comes with fries at the bottom. The sauce was good too! I like the orange colored one, I can’t remember the name. They have different sauces you can try out by the soda machine. The owner is very nice! I ordered pick up and they have cool to-go bags. They are also reusable too. I would recommend this place!

This place specializes in Japanese-style fried chicken, and it’s addictive. The chicken is crispy outside and juicy inside. The meal sets come with rice, salad, and sides, making it filling. The space is small but cozy. Always a great choice

A great fried chicken spot in Pasadena with a fantastic variety of options as well as good service. We came late on a weekend and it was very busy - we were lucky to get a seat. There’s very limited seating, and to find parking close is kind of tough - we parked at town hall and walked over. The different flavors make it a unique experience and you can even get most of the flavors as sauces on the side as well. If you sign up for rewards you can get a free dessert too. We also got a cute tote bag, and we were told if we brought it back, we could get a free Spam Musubi (though I’m not sure how long this deal will last). Overall a delicious Asian fried chicken spot that if I was a resident, would be a common go to spot for me.
