Very solid Hainan chicken spot. A few tables inside for dining in. It appears the majority of their customers order takeout. Food is served on paper plates if you dine in. They have great scallion oil sauce which makes the dish perfect. It was so good, even my 10-yr old almost finished his own whole plate. The salt & pepper wings are a must try and seem to have a hint of curry flavor. read more

Oh my gosh this establishment was the first time I tried Hainan chicken-- and with the support and words of my girl friends, I was so excited to try it!! Hainan chicken is a poached chicken that comes with seasoned rice and assorted toppings/sauces. I ordered the Hainan chicken plate with the option of Dark Meat Only. The plates come with complimentary chicken broth and wow! That broth was so hearty and delicious. It was more flavorful than any other chicken broth I've slurped!! The chicken was juicy, soft, and tender and paired so well with the rice. The rice was like no other. You could tell the chicken has been tenderized by slow-cooking for so long. The amazing part of this dish is the fact that you could do so many different steps to really elevate and step up/enhance the flavor. There's 2 sauces on the side and the broth is perfect to add on as well. One sauce is spicy with a kick but has great hints of ginger while the other sauce is like a garlicy lime-basil taste. I loved them both. Definitely try them out and don't be afraid. They really make the dish become more amazing, turning a simple hearty meal into such an astonishing meal. I loved everything so much and ate until I was full. The portioning was great for the price and we felt like our moneys' worth was put in for the experience. The area inside is casual and great for a quick eat-out. I noticed lots of pickup orders go out. There's street parking available but it can be hard if there's no spots. read more

My wife loves Hainan Chicken, so this is the place I go to please her palate. Upon coming home, our grandson was at our house after daycare, so I wanted to feed him the Hainan Chicken to see if he shares the same likes as my wife. I was surprized that he really enjoyed the food and liked the green ginger too! Although not a picky eater, he certainly had a good appetite after a long day playing and learning at the daycare facility. I would enjoy more occasions like this to see him for dinner and enjoy his company. As for the restaurant, the service is relatively fast and the food was prepared fresh. I would certainly consider visiting this location more, as Hainan Chicken never gets old in our household! read more

Love the fried chicken! The sauces are great but I had to try all of them to figure out which one I like the most. The rice however is the most addictive part of the meal. The broth soup that comes on the side has no business being there. Skip that every time. Highly recommend this place over any other Hainan chicken restaurant in LA. I recommend eating it at the restaurant than to go. Especially if you're getting the fried chicken. read more

Cluck2Go has THE best Hainan Chicken in the area. I drive about 15-20 minutes just for their Hainan Chicken. We usually get the Combo A and it's definitely enough food for two hungry people. With the small eating area, I wish they served everything in anything other than paper plates and containers. I think it's just a waste, but we didn't come here for the cutlery. As you can see, the Combo A comes with everything you see, including two big containers of rice and chicken broth. We always get dark meat and it is delicious. They offer the green and red sauce, but we just love the green sauce of oil, ginger, scallions and salt. My favorite part of this meal is combining the peanuts with each bite. They mix the peanuts with red pepper flakes, fried garlic, salt, pepper, sugar and their secret ingredient that makes your mouth literally tingle...prickly ash oil. There are other menu items, but the Hainan Chicken is what they are famous for... I just love this place and wish it was open later some days when I just need to scratch that itch.

A solid spot for hainan chicken. I've only ordered take out, so I cannot speak on a dine in experience. I order the skinless half chicken combo A. The rice, chicken, veggies and soup are so yummy. The staff is friendly and there's plenty of seating to wait when I order my take out. read more

Ordered takeout and it was very good. Got the dark meat and side order of broccoli. Very tender chicken. Sauces were very good as well. read more

Great food and great value for the money. The garlic sauce in the regular Hainan chicken is fantastic. Service is fast and friendly.

We order from here consistently because their Hainan chicken (A+) is that good. It's tender, flavorful, and juicy. They also are not stingy about my favorite green onion sauce like other places. When people are in town, we always order the family pack here either combo A or B and it's always a hit. Parking can be found on the street easily but try to go anytime before 4:30pm if you can. Servers are all delightful and easy to speak with. Place is clean and well kept. read more

I recently placed a to-go order with a friend and accidentally entered a $0.05 tip instead of $5 during checkout without realizing it. After the transaction, a staff member pointed out the small tip and asked if I would be willing to run another transaction to correct it. While I understand it may have looked like an oversight and I appreciated them bringing it to my attention the way it was addressed felt a bit uncomfortable. I believe most guests would prefer not to be directly confronted about tipping, especially in front of others. That said, the food and service were good, and I know mistakes can happen on both sides. I just wanted to share this feedback in case it's helpful for improving the guest experience moving forward. read more

Great casual spot for Hainan Chicken! I had seen the Rowland Heights location before and finally tried this location in Pasadena. Cluck2go reminds me of Taishi Hainan Chicken in Redondo Beach which I used to frequent often but the sauces here are more Chinese flavor profiles versus Taishi. We tried the fried, dark and white meat chickens. The white meat was dry but others were good. All chicken are boneless. As for the sides, the peanuts are really good with a hint of sweetness and the cucumbers are not that spicy. Also got the sesame fried chicken wings to go so I still need to try them. The fried chicken only comes with the red sauce but got to try the green sauce with the steamed chickens. Both are good as you can taste the ginger in them. After eating, I noticed that they didn't give us the dark soy sauce dipping sauce but maybe the soy sauce on the table is all it is -- which was empy so I didn't use any? And... I don't think they have a parking lot in the back so we parked on a side street. I wish they would use non-diaposable plates and cups for dine in but I know they get a lot of to go orders and dishwashers cost money. read more

It's next to a game store that I frequent. It's a quick and commercialized version of traditional Hainan Chicken Rice. But hey, the real thing takes WAY longer at home if you're doing it from scratch. Whatever process they are using to speed things along is great. I like the texture of the chicken. The wait times are short and the place is clean, what more can you ask for? read more

Holy cow this place is so good!, **again writing as I'm eating cause I couldn't contain my self.... Food: 15/10 definitely breaks the 10-point scale cause WOW, this is the best tasting chicken I have had in a very long time (I've had a lot of chicken so don't worry, I am qualified to say this LOL ) Service: Quick, friendly, efficient Ambiance: Definition of a "hole-in-the-wall" place, and seems like they mostly do to-go orders, but we still opted to dine-in. Plenty of street parking as well! read more

Bought the family pack. The chicken was moist and flavorful. We enjoyed having a second meal since the portions were generous. Service was friendly and quick. Would order from here again. read more

As a Singaporean, I'd say that the chicken rice here is legit. Definitely better than savoy. The rice here is flavorful and the chicken juicy and tender. The ginger and hot sauce is great too. The only thing missing from an authentic experience is the dark soy sauce for the rice and the light sesame soy sauce for the chicken. This beats savoy hands down. Will definitely return again when I'm craving some good chicken rice. read more

I love my hainan chicken. This spot does it well & is great for to go. The sauces are so good & a must for every bite. My favorite is the sweet soy sauce. I ordered the meal for two which includes 2 rice, 2 chicken portions, cucumber, peanuts, soup and sauces for under $40. So worth it! Interesting they serve everything on paper plates... but that doesn't stop me from coming. Food is delicious!! read more

Food so amazing but eventually they will get all your money because you can't stop going back. Order the family meal before 7pm and just eat it for days. If you dine in get FRIED!! Wow. I eat here at least once a week. read more

EconomicalGenerous portionsA savior for broke students One day, I suddenly craved for Hainanese Chicken Rice. I found this Hainanese Chicken Rice restaurant located in Pasadena, and although the space was small, it was packed with customers. I ordered one serving of dark & white meat Hainanese Chicken Rice and another serving with all dark meat. The chicken-flavored rice was not only incredibly flavorful but also came in an extremely generous portion. In the end, I couldn't finish all the rice as there was just so much of it! The amount of chicken they served was also quite generous. Personally, I preferred the all dark meat option because the chicken was more tender. While the white meat wasn't too dry or tough, there was still a noticeable difference when eaten together with dark meat . The complimentary sauce they provided was the perfect complement to the meal - tangy, sweet, and spicy - it went amazingly well with the chicken and rice. Even though their tableware wasn't fancy, the quality and quantity of the food left me satisfied . I'll definitely return to this Hainanese Chicken Rice restaurant . read more

I'm thrilled to have a Cluck2Go nearby; it's hands down one of my favorite Hainan Chicken spots! I've had the pleasure of trying both the dark and white meat, and my recommendation is to go for the dark meat. The chicken is completely deboned, and the rice is cooked with chicken broth! Plus, they serve it with pickled veggies and a side of chicken broth, making it a real bang for your buck. Sure, it's not the fanciest joint and a tad small, but honestly, the real draw here is the scrumptious Hainan chicken--that's what brings people in! Service is great, and the convenience of parking all around the block is definitely a plus. No complaints here! read more

I ordered the combo A with dark chicken for dinner. The combo is a really good deal for two people. My order came with two bowls of rice, two bowls of chicken soup, 1 bowl of spicy cucumber, and 1 bowl of peanut. The chicken was soft and nicely sliced into bite sizes. The rice was soft and flavorful. I like that I could taste the chicken in the chicken soup. The cucumber pieces were seasoned with just right amount and not too spicy. I also got the chrysanthemum tea and it was really refreshing. There is one restroom in the back. Plenty of seating inside. It gets busy and crowded during peak meal time. I parked in the lot behind the restaurant. read more

Came here around 5 pm right before the dinner rush. The food came out pretty quick. I got Combo A which comes with a soup, half chicken, rice, garlic peanuts, spicy cucumber. The chicken also comes with some pickled veggies, and two sauces. This combo is for 2 people and we were full after we were done. This combo is nice because you get the peanuts and cucumbers as a bonus for sharing with someone else. The soup has a very hearty flavor. The rice is pillowy soft. We got the dark meat chicken which was really tender and flavorful. Add on your favorite sauce and it's packed with flavor. The spicy cucumber was nice and crispy. The peanuts had a really nice seasoning and added a nice texture to the meal. read more

Cluck2Go is known for their Hainan chicken over rice. What I like most here is the fried Hainan chicken, and in fact I think me and my dad ate here for Easter one year haha. Fried hainan chicken is not as common as regular hainan chicken so if you have not tried it before I recommend you do! The restaurant is very popular among college students in the area and is doing good business in a space that hasn't always been easy to survive as a restaurant (I believe it used to be a frozen yogurt place and a Filipino place and a pizza place before). read more

Food: Really authentic. Recommend the regular set (black+white meat). Service: It's a small shop and very crowded. The staff is very helpful. Ambiance: Casual. read more

We ordered combo for 4 through doordash. Everything was tasty, chicken was moist, lots of sauces.

OMG!! This place is absolutely amazing! We went today (4/13/25), and I 1000% recommend it! I'll admit, I was a little hesitant at first--I'm super picky when it comes to Hainanese chicken, especially after having some of the best back when I lived in Asia. But wow... this place seriously delivered! The server was kind, helpful, and very well-mannered. The food? Incredible. The soup was so flavorful, and the sauces were spot on--each one added the perfect kick. Everything was seasoned just right and tasted authentic and comforting. We ordered one fried, one mix, and one all dark meat--and let me tell you, we devoured everything within minutes after a long day at the flee market, so no photos this time (sorry, not sorry)! If you're a Hainanese chicken lover, this spot is a must-try! read more

They used to give side dishes with the whole chicken meal but it's still a solid deal. You now get a whole chicken, 2 rice and 2 broths- they're consistent and I appreciate that! read more

I really want to rate this 5 stars. But I've had Hainan chicken rice from SF bay area that was better. So I can only rate this 4 stars. Having said that, that best Hainan chicken rice I've had very delicious chicken rice and Cluck2go's rice is much harder. Chicken wise, I think cluck2go is better. Chicken is very tender and soft. Flavorful and juicy. Perfect timing on cooking. The red sauce has ginger in it and the green sauce is ginger. I wish the red sauce has a little spiciness and without ginger. Otherwise, all the sauces are ginger base an read more

I absolutely loved my fried chicken plate. It was so simple but so delicious. Very nice delicate flavors. So comforting.

A great place for Hainan chicken! I like getting their combos if I'm sharing with a few people. The chicken is juicy and flavorful! Personally I think the rice can be kinda hard. Chicken soup is great as well. Easy to call in or order online. Food usually comes out pretty promptly. read more

What they want pristine $20 bill. read more

Parking - For parking I parked across the street and walked over. If I remember correctly the parking was free. There are some spots in the area where you have to pay for the meter so be prepared and bring your coins. Hainan Chicken - The whole dish came with a portion of your choice or dark or white meat, soup, picked veggies, rice, and two sauces. The chicken is so tender and has the right amount of salt on it so it's not to overpowering. The rice is so yummy. You can tell that they added a generous amount of chicken fat to it when they cooked it so the rice is more flavorful. The soup was good soup I would say. Let's talk about the sauce though. The orange one is sweet, tangy and a bit spicy. I loved this one a lot. The green one is more savory. It tastes like ginger, green onions and salty. If you dip the chicken in both these sauces and then eat it, it's the best of both worlds.  Do they do dine in? - When I went during June, 2022 they had the option to dine in or do take out. The space to dine in is very limited though since the store is on the smaller side. They have about maybe 3-5 tables open for dine in. If you do go dine in though I suggest you go in a smaller group of less than 5.  Overall - I would say that this place is fairly good. I would come back again if I am in the area and craving some Hainan Chicken. read more

since COVID I've only ordered takeout/delivery here. Still my go-to Hainan chicken place in town. I finally went back to eat-in recently, and none of the previous problems were there. Actually, quite a good experience. Food still solid. My group ordered comboB which was plenty of food for 4, easily feed 5 if you're not super hungry. You get "1 chicken worth of meat" as opposed to a whole chicken. They ask you if you want white/dark/both and its the same cost no matter what you pick. You get 4 chicken rices, 4 cups of soup (broth with a bit of garnish only, which is how it should be), a sautéed green beans dish (good), cucumber salad (also good), garlic peanuts (great),4 green and 4 red sauces, 2 sides of pickles, and of course the chicken. Everything is served in takeout containers, and sweet soy sauce is on the table. The place is still small but clean, service was friendly and quick, and there's street parking free out front. Service is much improved from my previous visit years ago. Pricing is very reasonable too, can't complain really. Happy to give them 5/5 now. Ive had it in several places around town and they're the only ones to deliver the whole package, consistent, tasty, and good value. If I had to nitpick, their green sauce could use more scallion but its still good. Not quite the Hainan chicken rice from Singapore, my benchmark, but about as good as it gets around here. This is not fine dining, or even fast casual. Its more of a takeout spot that has some seating, barely more than a counter-service place. so given all that, its great for what it is. read more

So good! There are plenty of hainan chicken places much closer to me than this one so I never go to try it until I was recently in the area and this one totally stands up to some of the best! The interior of this restaurant is very mom and pop-- nothing fancy and quite small, but the chicken, rice, and sauces are all excellent! For some reason, they don't include one of three sauces, the sweet soy sauce, in to go orders if you don't ask for it, so that is something to note. Otherwise, great food and great portions! read more

Came here because it was literally located just a block away from PCC (Pasadena City College). Apparently the owners of Cluck2Go used to own Man Chan Cuisine in Rowland Heights (now converted to a secondary location for Cluck2Go). This is one of three Cluck2Go locations (Pasadena, Rowland Heights, and Arcadia - Diamond Bar location is closed) in LA county. Hainan chicken recipe was originally from Man Chan Cuisine, but the owners went through development and worked on the improved recipe for Cluck2Go. [Parking]: There's a small & free rear parking lot behind the restaurant, but you'll have to walk around the building because there's no back entrance. [Menu]: This small restaurant has simplified their menu since COVID started and only sell Hainan chicken (regular or fried) rice, few appetizers, and selective drinks/desserts now. [Amenities]: The staff was friendly and placed a to-go order. There's no shade outside of the restaurant and it is an indoor dining space only. I eventually just stood outside for 15 minutes and eventually got my order. *** Fried Hainan Chicken & Rice (fried Singaporean-style poached chicken and chicken rice. Served with pickled veggie, and sweet chili sauce, $12.99): The combo also came with soup and it was such a savory & killer soup. Chili sauce was alright, but fried Hainan chicken wasn't too shabby and pickled veggie was excellent too. *** I would totally come here if they only sell chicken soup, but unfortunately you can't order it as a la carte. Call me crazy, but I think Hainan chicken at Savoy Kitchen has a slight edge over Cluck2Go despite the 5-star worthy soup. read more
