I first discovered Chicken Day last June. One of my daughter's friend's moms brought it to a swimming pool party, and at first, I thought it would just be regular party food. I mean, chicken is chicken, right? But the moment I casually picked up a piece of boneless chicken and took a bite, a little alarm went off in my head. "Wait a minute... what is this chicken?" It was completely different from any boneless fried chicken I had ever eaten before. The outside was perfectly crispy, while the meat inside was unbelievably soft, tender, and juicy. Boneless chicken can sometimes be dry, tough, or overly greasy, but Chicken Day's boneless chicken had the perfect balance. Crispy and crunchy on the outside! Soft, moist, and tender on the inside! After one bite, I could not tell whether I had come to a swimming pool party or a private fried chicken tasting event. I was supposed to be watching the kids play, but somehow, my eyes kept drifting back toward the chicken box. And that is not even the end of the story. There is one thing at Chicken Day that you absolutely cannot ignore. Their house sauce. This sauce is seriously dangerous. At first glance, it looks a little like Korean sweet and spicy fried chicken sauce, but once you taste it, it is definitely different. It is sweet, slightly tangy, savory, and somehow makes you want to keep dipping piece after piece. Honestly, this sauce is so difficult to explain. The more I try to describe it, the more confused I become. It tastes a little like Korean seasoned chicken sauce, but somehow better. It tastes familiar, yet completely special. You dip one piece lightly, and by the next piece, you are completely covering the chicken in sauce. There is really only one conclusion. You simply have to try it for yourself. The moment you taste it, you will understand why I gave up trying to explain it. It is one of those flavors that your tongue understands before your brain can find the right words. When you dip the crispy boneless chicken into that house sauce and take a bite, it feels like a small festival is happening inside your mouth. You tell yourself that you are only going to eat one piece, but suddenly you have eaten two, then three, and before you know it, you are quietly watching everyone around you to make sure nobody takes the last piece. I discovered Chicken Day by chance at a swimming pool party, but ever since that day, I have continued thinking about the soft chicken, the crispy coating, and that unforgettable house sauce. And now, while writing this review, I want it again. This is becoming a serious problem. The more I write about this chicken, the more my mouth seems ready to leave the house and head directly to Chicken Day. I guess there is no need to think about dinner tonight. I am going back to Chicken Day to buy more chicken! Perfectly crispy boneless chicken with incredibly tender and juicy meat inside, paired with a house sauce that is almost impossible to describe but absolutely impossible to forget. If you have not tried Chicken Day yet, you really should. But be careful. Once you try it, you may develop the same serious side effect I now have: Thinking about Chicken Day even while writing a review about it. read more

I ate more than I anticipated to eat, because it was good? Is it Mary's or a conscious meat that they use? No.... and that part is obvious while eating it. Was that chicken in the dumplings???? The soy sauce drowns out that thought for sure. French fries and chicken tenders are also on par with fast food but for late night it will do. It does make me feel like I should have warmed up a frozen Trader Joe's entree and called it a night and not have had regrets. But it is what it is. 2 stars at best from me. read more

Chicken had great texture and flavor. Wings were a little small and pricey compared to some other korean fried chicken places we have been to. Here we paid $20 for 10 wings (it came with a small side of coleslaw and a small side of radish). The lady who rang up our order was super nice and the chicken was made pretty quickly, and fresh! We took it to go. We ordered Korean spicy chicken for the flavor, but it tasted more like sweet and spicy. The atmosphere was cute, clean, and simple with some good Kpop music videos playing on the tv. Overall we really enjoyed the flavor of the wings. read more

I liked it. Had a craving for some KFC (Korean fried chicken) and met up with a friend here. Inside is simple. They have a few tables and there's another small patio area with a few tables. We got the Korean pepper and garlic wings. I liked em. The Korean pepper had a nice spice that doesn't hit until after. The garlic was good too, lighter on sauce. We also got the kimchi fried rice and some fries. The kimchi fried rice was good, had a slight spice to it. Fries were standard. We also got some beer and soju. Service was ok. There was easy underground parking beneath the shopping center. If you got a KFC craving, definitely check them out. read more

When going into a Korean fried chicken joint, you have to expect to pay a premium for the chicken. Chicken Day is tucked into a small strip mall off of Western. Luckily we went on a slower Sunday night so there was parking on the upper lot. The menu is surprisingly simple and has many offerings. We opted to get the sweet and spicy wings, cabbage salad and the chicken soup. The wing sizes were really huge which justifies the price for the 10 piece. Can't really mess up a cabbage salad and they gave you a lot, but for the price, it seemed excessive. The coup de gras was the chicken soup. A whole chicken, just about the size of a Cornish Game Hen in a mild broth. But the surprising part was the way the chicken was cooked. They stuff the cavity with tons of garlic, what looked to be a chestnut...in the broth itself was a ton of green onions and what looked like a long root of some kind. There was some rice in the broth but the best part was this; as you tear apart the chicken, all of the garlic, green onions and chicken skin create a stronger broth taste. It got better as you reached the bottom of the soup bowl. Bathrooms 10/10 Ambiance 9/10 Service 9/10 Food 9/10 Cleanliness 9/10 Value 8/10 Will I Return?

I love this place because of the honesty of people works there. My old friend from school flew from DC and he wanted to go out to lunch so we went there. Parking can be bit challenging but it well worth it. I was absent minded today because I forgot to drink my Celsius drink. Well the lunch was lovely and my gizzards were crispy. I left my Louis Vuitton wallet there by accident since my friend picked up the check. When I was in Pasadena, I realized my wallet was missing. Then I called this business and the lady said she has it and told me not to worry and take your time. And I went back and there it was. Cash & cards everything was in tact. I really appreciate the honesty of people works there. I recommend this restaurant, 100%!! read more

Cannot emphasize how amazing the chicken was and how absolutely juicy it was. So incredibly tender and juicy and perfectly crispy/crunchy with a nice thin batter. Definitely coming again and definitely recommend giving this place a try, much better than bb.q chicken. We tried the soy garlic drumsticks and it was so flavorful and delightfully garlicky. We also tried the carbonara which I enjoyed. It wasn't quite an Italian-style carbonara, but still very delicious and I really liked that the sauce wasn't too heavy. Linguini noodles were perfectly al dente. read more

The chicken is delightfully crispy and served piping hot! Plus, the pricing is incredibly reasonable, providing enough food for two people to enjoy. I'm looking forward to returning next time! read more

Friendly people, and the original chicken was perfectly cooked, if not very interesting, with a thin crispy batter. The coleslaw that arrived was barely a large tablespoon, in a 2/3 empty container. They added $7 to deliver 3 blocks away and would have tacked on another $4 if I didn't pay cash, so overall not the best value. Next time will try a more adventurous menu option. We split a half chicken two ways and had to get up and cook more to feel satisfied. read more

I have been a regular for years and I enjoy their Korean spicy pepper chicken & fries. I think the owner or the chef may changed, but the taste of the chicken and the portions changed a lot.

Casual digs in a fun KTown shopping center. Seems like a fun place to grab a beer and have chicken. Chicken could be better; crispier, more flavorful, of better quality, etc. For the price you pay you're better off going to visit Mr. Gol Tong down the street for his chicken instead read more

Drove all the way here just for the rice hamburger for them to tell me that they no longer have it. However, it's still on the menu which really sucks.

Chicken Day was an absolute treat for chicken Lovers! This place has a great quality of fried chickens, and even their appetizers, soups and their rise dishes as well!

And the staffs are really kind and friendly! Their service was excellent!! If you guys love chicken, this is the one you MUST go! I guarantee that! read more

looking for some good korean fried chicken? this is not the place to start While they have a decent sized menu and some good sauces for their chicken, the chicken itself is not crunchy, nor is it juicy.

I frequent this place, and the quality has been really hit-or-miss. Sometimes you get fresh, crispy-looking chicken, but other times it's soggy. It seems like they re-fry already cooked chicken to save time during busy hours, kind of like KFC does. I've never seen a Korean fried chicken place do this before. :( Hard to recommend. read more

I usually order the Korean Spicy Pepper combo and the Sweet & Spicy combo and that'll feed around 4-6 people. The lady working there brought out chilled glasses for the beer, and the service is always lovely. The lady working there is super cute and attentive! The first time I went, they served the biggest drumsticks and wings I have ever seen. Unfortunately the chicken size is not always consistent, but I don't fault them for it. We got the spiciest level and it was too much for me- but still enjoyable! Definitely one of the top Korean fried chicken joints in LA-- phenomenal service and THICC juicy chicken meats with perfectly crisp yet saucy breading. read more

3 stars because the guy who took our order was really nice and accommodating, and the honey lemon drumsticks saved my appetite. I'd give the food a 2 or less. I got the kimchi pancake, which was way too sour and tasted like fish with ketchup. Didn't have a palatable flavor. The chicken we got wasn't crispy or crunchy like I was expecting of korean fried chicken. Everything was drenched in sauce. The drumsticks were juicy, but the taste and texture of the breading was too off-putting to finish. Just makes me sad because I spent $75 dollars, and I feel like I got robbed. read more
