I popped in here after a school field trip craving some fried chicken. I was new here and didn't know what to get so I went with the chicken lunch special that comes with salad, rice and a drink. I couldn't decide on one flavor so she was kind enough to put the sauce on the side for me which was great (thank you!). I love that they gave a combination of white and dark meat, I was worried it would all be wings and it was well portioned. I enjoyed having a little salad with the fried chicken pieces and rice. The sauce was light and gently sweet, a very complimentary dip to the light crispy crunch of the breaded wings. Service was very welcoming and friendly with a very clean interior and the smell of freshly cooked food. I really enjoyed the food here and I'm definitely coming back for dinner with the family. read more

The food was okay, but honestly, I felt the price was way too high for the quality and overall experience. The food was not bad, but it wasn't impressive enough to justify the cost. For the price, I expected better quality, larger portions, or a more satisfying overall experience. Unfortunately, I don't think it was worth the money. read more

We've ordered from Chicken Day in La Crescenta a few times. Some were delivery orders and a couple of times, we picked up the food. Korean fried chicken cravings definitely happen and its good to have one in the foothills. We just happened to be in the same plaza shopping at the market nearby when we first noticed it. We've gotten the original fried chicken wings, original fried chicken drumsticks, sweet and spicy wings and the spicy garlic wings. I've found that the original and sweet & spicy are the 2 flavors I like best for wings. The drumsticks are a little too filling and I'm really in it for the wings. The flavor of the original fried is good and the crunch is even better. 10 pieces of these wings is $15.49 while 10 pieces of the sweet & spicy wings or the spicy garlic is $15.99. The spicy garlic was a little too strong for me. I needed to eat that with a good amount of rice. The sweet & spicy is good on its own. The flavor was not too overpowering. The double fried nature of these wings make for an extra crunch which we all look for... That's always good. We also typically get the pickled radish as a side but at times that is even too strong. Located on Foothill Blvd in the same plaza as Seoul Market and directly next to Sakana Sushi. Parking is in the shared lot or along Foothill. Service the times we ordered in-person was friendly. It seemed like a family run business. Signage out front doesnt really let you know that it's a Korean fried chicken spot. When we first parked in front of Chicken Day while headed to Seoul Market, I did a double take in wondering what type of chicken shop it was. read more

This place is legit for Korean Fried Chicken. We got some chicken to-go with sauce on the side as we were afraid it might be too spicy for our son. We all loved the chicken! My only complaint about getting sauce on the side. There's not enough sauce to dip the chicken into. However, they gave us two containers, but it was so dang good I ran out of that sauce real quick! We'd definitely come back again soon! Next time, I'll order sauce on top of the Korean Fried Chicken. read more

I've ordered their food about three times now. I thought the first two times were good, I got breaded chicken with rice the first time and then fried chicken the second time -- both times tasting fresh. This last time I ordered I got fried chicken in one of the sauces, as I was eating I was turned off by the quality, it tasted old. I ended up throwing up the food, something was definitely off about it. I will not be ordering again. read more

- Korean pepper - it is delicious. Not spicy and not too sweet. It is a good mix and has this good gooey sauce to it. Love it - garlic pepper - this wasn't a hit for me. It was a bit sweet and didn't really taste the garlic honestly. - kimbap: yes it's fresh but ehhh pass. Had better - fries: for the portion of fries versus price is not worth it. It's enough for one person but for 5 dollars - I was expecting a bit more Korean chicken in LA is better but at the same time for the location and not going to La - this place isn't bad. It's a good local option. The only major thing is to only get wings or legs cuz the whole chicken means whole chicken. I saw pieces that I wasn't sure of so unless you actually want a whole chicken chopped up then go for it. Second, service is great and super nice read more

If you're looking for the best Korean fried chicken in town, Chicken Day in La Cañada Flintridge is the place to go! My girlfriend and I visit regularly, and we love trying different dishes on their menu. Recently, we tried their classic fried Korean chicken, and let me tell you--OMG! It's hands down the best fried chicken I've ever tasted. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside, incredibly juicy on the inside, and didn't have that heavy, greasy feel you get at other places. It was pure perfection. Their seasoned and sauced chicken options are amazing too, but this classic fried chicken really blew us away. Everything is always so fresh, and the service is beyond friendly and welcoming every time we go. Plus, the restaurant itself is spotless, which we really appreciate. Don't skip the pickled radish--they make it in-house, and it's the bomb. Most of their combos also come with a side of rice and a fresh salad, which is such a nice touch. Honestly, we can't get enough of this place. Highly, highly recommend it! read more

There might be a good amount of options for Korean food in the foothills, but not a lot of options for Korean fried chicken. If you live around the area, have found yourself craving Korean fried chicken, and don't feel like driving to Central LA or SGV, this place is a godsend. The strip mall is small, bordering the car wash and shares the plaza with a korean market and another restaurant so parking can be an issue. You have to be careful and patient; there are a lot of ajummas who drive slowly and don't look where they're walking. I usually opt to call in, the chicken is made to order, so it can take a while. There is ample seating inside, but I rarely see people dining in, it seems most people order for takeout. The chicken itself is really good, the chicken is fried perfectly, still moist on the inside while being extra crispy on the outside. They have a good variety of flavors and they're all delicious, I usually opt for half original and half either soy or spicy garlic, depending on the mood. Sometimes I'll commit sacrilege and toss the original in some buffalo sauce at home. They also include some pickled daikon on the side. The kimbap is just ok. Unless you're really craving kimbap, I'd pass, and that's fine to me since I came for the chicken after all. read more

I grew up with Chicken Day!! The chicken is so yummy and flavorful and comes with radish and sauce. Defintely reccomend:))

We stopped by this place to pick up Korean fried chicken for a potluck, and the sets of drum sticks and wings, both in the original style and the sweet spicy flavoring, were a hit for everyone. It was easy to order over the phone, and the food was ready for pick up as promised. The staff was meticulous to double check the order at the time it was placed as well as at pick up. The packaging allowed the chicken to stay crispy during transport. The store was small in an equally small shopping center, but it served its purpose. read more

Food and service is 5 stars. A good place to enjoy after school or after sports on the weekend for a hearty bowl of chicken and spicy rice cakes. I like the tuna rice bowls and spicy rice cakes. The restaurant is clean and staff is very friendly. read more

Chicken Day - Sweet and spicy 30 Piece Boneless Whole Size and Tuna Rice Ball (2pc) - Korean Near Me - La Crescenta, California

Fried chicken is highly subjective. But in this case if you don't like their fried chicken there must be something wrong with your taste buds. I tried their entire menu and honestly you can't go wrong picking any of them. Soooooooo good. I mean you literally can't get tired of eating the spicy sweet flavor. My mouth is watering just typing this review. Expect long waits because take out queue is long. Worth the wait. read more

Everything is delicious. Can't wait to eat there again, or take out. Great location, and the seating is just right.

My kids raided the basket of boneless original chicken and then rated it 10/10. The 15 piece size is more than 15 "pieces" and was enough for all three young kids. It comes with a sauce at the table that is not spicy but not ketchup (Korean ketchup?) and they enjoyed it as well. My husband and I shared the cabbage salad which was refreshing - and I didn't see it on the menu- and the garlic spicy which was perfect amount of spicy. Service was super fast, friendly. I think I saw only two women working the register and the kitchen. Very sweet and want to support this delicious spot! The parking lot in front is small but I think there's more in the back. Inside was clean with room to sit. We did not use it but there was a self service Korean dried ramen bar where you grab, and your water, and go! read more

Chicken Day - Garlic spicy - Korean Near Me - La Crescenta, California

Came for a snack and what better than Korean fried chicken. While we didn't expect much, I was pretty happy with what we ordered. We got 12 pc drumstick with 6 original and 6 in their garlic spicy sauce. Along with that, two orders of wedge fries, and a gimbop (tuna). To start, the gimbop came out and it was decently made. Tightly packed and filled with different ingredients. The sauce that came with it wasn't very spicy and could have done more with Gochujung, but oh well. The vinegared daikon that came with the chicken was nicely done. The wedge fries were decently fried too. But the main show stealer was the chicken. I started with the original and the crispy on the exterior and then the moistness and full-flavor on the meat was spectacular. The garlic spicy is pretty similar, but the sauce didn't really hit the same. I think mainly because it tasted like a Mae Ploy dip with garlic flavoring. The chicken wasn't bad still, but the sauce left me wanting a more unique or spicier sauce. All in all, it was a fair surprise to have chicken that nice and we wouldn't mind visiting again for more in the future. read more

Chicken Day rocks! Korean fried chicken is their specialty. The chicken served here is on the SMALLER side, but the quality is great! One can definitely taste the freshness of the poultry. Chicken is freshly prepared and ready in 15-20mins. People that work here nice. Worth mentioning: If you love spicy, "Volcano" flavored sauce is perfect! It has some nice heat and you can still taste the chicken. Their other "spicy" flavored sauces (sweet n spicy, garlic n spicy, and Korean pepper sauce) aren't spicy at all, I'd say more on the sweet side. My favorite is the plain original one. It's simple. read more

I have been by this restaurant a few times when with my wife and I and were going to the jewelry shop next door or the Korean market in the same strip mall. The name of the establishment always intrigued me. What is Chicken Day and what does the name mean? Today I finally went it after ordering a Xmas gift for my wife at the jewelry shop. The jewelry shop owner told me that their food was good so I had to give it a try. The lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful since it was my first time there. The restaurant is clean and bright. I ordered a lunch special to go. It consisted of three full chicken wings in a sweet and spicy sauce (very good), a scoop of white rice, small salad with dressing and a soda. I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken was cooked perfectly. She told me when I ordered that it would take fifteen minutes and now I know why. Everything is cooked to order. That made the wings crunchy and flavorful. I will be back to try their original fried chicken and I know it will be just as good if not better than what I ordered today. Today was a good day for me at Chicken Day. read more

KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN YUMMY! So good! They never let me down. Chicken is always so crispy and tender meat inside and love how much they give. I usually order just boneless plain chicken with spicy sauce on the side or half boneless spicy and half plain with an order of veggie kimbap! This is my go-to place for fried chicken. I crave it more than KFC or other fast food places. Call in and pick up! Very fast and easy when you're on the go! read more

This is our fave Korean Chicken spot. Wings lways cooked to perfection with good sauce. This is our go-to for any potluck.

It's in their names folks - every day can be a Chicken Day! We've got many choices for great Korean chicken in the area but we always come back to Chicken Day. We always go for the whole, bone-in, chicken. Our favorites are Sweet and Spicy, Garlic and Spicy and Korean Pepper Sauce (!!!). The sauce...put it this way, they may as well adopt the trademark "finger lickin' good." It also comes with plenty of pickled radish and napkins, which you'll definitely need. The service was fast (order to pickup in 20 mins.), friendly and the price was right. read more

So let's just get right to the point! I love this place because it has basically one item on the menu. Fried chicken!! You from leg, wing, or thigh. Then You pick what type of sauce you would like. Simple as that! I got the leg and wing..sweet and spicy and yes it's was great!! Perfect little crunch with a little kick of spice in every bite. I also tried the rice cake & gimmalyi this was also pretty good. Lastly I ordered the beef gimbob. I've actually had better but it wasn't too bad. It was a great combination of items to have together! read more

I've been to chicken day many times and their chicken is rather good in the local neighborhood. The chicken is nice and crispy and soft with a crunch. I love the fried over the other flavors, because I love chicken by itself fried. But i recommend sweet & spicy for any new comers as well! The restaurant chicken tastes good but they aren't super consistent in the chicken and its sometimes a lil tough. Despite so, i recommend this restaurant as its one of the better places in la crescenta!! read more

Chicken Day - Korean Near Me - La Crescenta, California

This is a small hole in the wall place in a small strip mall. They have solid fried chicken wings, whole, half, dark, white, whatever your preference with a few awesome sauces to choose from. Next time I will ask for the sauce on the side, it gets a lot gooey and overwhelming. They also have gimbab and two kinds of soup. Parking can be tough, they're competing with another restaurant, a market and a bakery but luckily there's a lot of people taking out and the parking turns over relatively quickly. read more
