Lucky boy burgers used to be pretty good. But in the last year or so, it's gone down hill. I'm not sure if it has new ownership but since they put up the new digital menus the food has suffered greatly. The chili has a weird gray color to it and it tastes more like a thick gravy. The staff is more concerned in getting the order fast instead of getting it right. My wife and I used it to really enjoy the food there, especially for a quick meal. But we probably won't be going there any longer. read more

I really love this place. The breakfast burritos here are so massive, taste really good and also had some zucchini. I've yet to try much of anything else so I'm not sure if the rest of the menu is as good but the breakfast burritos are a must-try. Options Ham Bacon Chorizo Sausage Zucchini totally shareable ! read more

The quality of the food has gone downhill. I know they're known for their breakfast burritos... But, I don't remember it tasting mediocre and bland from way back when... The ratio of hash browns to choice of protein to scrambled eggs, is off. There needs to be an equal amount of each component and more seasoning to their food. Salt and pepper is the way to go. Service is good when it's not busy. The seating area is never kept up or cleaned during the late night hours into the night. read more

Unlucky! I can't believe all of the hype over this place. The rude, angry cashier took my order while making a look on his face that reminded me of my own look while I was watching the opening ceremony of the Olympics yesterday. This place is a dump. Finally after sitting there listening to a concert volume speaker shouting numbers every second, my tasteless burrito arrived. It looked like a flat pillow from motel 6. It was so loosely wrapped that it fell apart immediately. I could have filled my pillowcase at home with mashed potatoes and saved the time not to mention my eardrums from this poor excuse of an inedible food shack. The only reason I gave it 2 stars and not one is because they have Mr Pibb there. read more

A go to spot since high school. I lived out of state for 19 years and would fly back just for their famous chili cheese fries. Great staff this is an iconic place with great food. read more

Portions are HUGE! Highly recommend you to share the burrito with someone if you are not a big eater. My friend and I shared a carne asada breakfast burrito but they charged an extra $4 because that is not one of the breakfast burrito options. Breakfast burrito options are ham, chorizo, sausage, and bacon. Next time I come back here, I definitely want to try the sausage breakfast burrito! The burrito itself was very flavorful but since I got the carne asada, I wish it has cilantro and onions in it too. Not a big fan of the chili cheese fries as they were pretty dry and nothing too special.. so I probably wouldn't get that again. Aside from that, I'd come back and try other items! read more

My #1 spot for a breakfast burrito. The food is delicious and there's lots of options to choose if you're really hungry.

Bomb! Best breakfast burrito in the area. Zucchini fries extra fried with ranch, can't go wrong. Service is stern and on point can go in our pjs to pick up food. Chill vibe with lots of options read more

Love their breakfast burritos! I'm guessing it's their most popular menu item as everyone was getting it. It's packed with a good ratio of meat (bacon, which wasn't too fatty), potatoes, cheese, and eggs. The burrito has nice grill marks on it. My only complaint is the salsa that comes with it isn't spicy at all. I took the burrito home and added some avocado which made it extra delicious! I did see the inside seating is open again. read more

Had to stop by here to try their breakfast burrito after seeing a video about them on Instagram. We came by later at night, and it was still busy here! Definitely a hot spot. We ordered their famous breakfast burrito with bacon and sausage. This burrito is HUGE and loaded with good portions of egg and potatoes. Definitely a 5 star for the size of the burrito, but I gave it a 4 star because of the quality of the burrito. It had decent flavor, but there wasn't anything INCREDIBLE about how it tasted. They also didn't combine the ingredients well, so you would get a bunch of bacon in one bite, and then none in the next few bites. Plenty of indoor seating options, and a decent-sized parking lot as well. A decent choice to grab your breakfast burrito fix. read more

Super cool place, looks like it's been here a long time, and one look at the menu tells you why. Something for everyone and sort of classic California counter food. A mix of Mexican influence, lots of classic American thrown in, with vegan and vegetarian options too. While we were in line, the lady in front of us (love SoCal friendliness!!) recommended the breakfast burrito, which had meat, eggs, cheese, bacon, and French fries(it's a SoCal thing); and could be ordered with avocado added! Oh yeah, it also comes with a side of delicious salsa!!! It was enormous! Weighed about 2 pounds. I managed to eat the whole thing but this could easily feed 2 normal humans. Forget about ordering sides, bacon? It's in there, Fries? It's in there! LoL Indoor and outdoor seating, very quick service and a great, friendly, local vibe. Good place for a quick filling lunch. read more

Lucky Boy - The mega pound Breakfast Burrito! - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

Look no further for the superstar of all breakfast burritos! These stuffed, thick, meaty, burritos the size of a small rolled-up throw blanket will render all other breakfast burritos simply unworthy. A longtime Pasadena staple with another location closer to the 210 freeway, this gem is located on Arroyo Blvd. across from a Trader Joe's. This location features its own parking lot and indoor and outdoor seating. They also take phone orders and credit card. Is it fancy by any means? Not at all, but the real star of the show is the aforementioned breakfast burrito. Filled to the brim with your choice of meat (but get the bacon! Don't even think about getting something else), eggs, cheese, and hash brown potatoes. If you're a purist, ask for the hash browns on the side. If you're the type who appreciates deep fried veggies of any kind, try their zucchini fries with ranch. Yes, it counts as a veggie in my book! So overall: The good: Huge portions, decent pricing, and the best breakfast burrito you will ever have! Free parking, takes credit card, and indoor and outdoor dining options. Also takes large orders in case you want to feed your whole team! The bad: Lines and wait times can be long during peak meal hours. Call your order ahead if you don't want to wait. The ugly: For such a busy restaurant, they've only got one small individual restroom for customers to use, and it requires a staff member to click it open for you while you stand by the restroom door. Wish this was a little bit more convenient. read more

The restaurant has a small parking lot or street parking. You order at the windows outside and for us newbies you pick up the food inside. I tried the fried zucchini and famous breakfast burrito. Zucchini comes with ranch and perfectly crisp and oh so good. The breakfast burrito is huge and packed with eggs, cheese, potatoes, and bacon paired with a salsa. Everything was tasty. read more

Meet the owner a few years back. Only to find out that he has passed on. Life long customers. Our condolences to the family. read more

I've had this place bookmarked for several years and finally had the chance to see what the hype was about Lucky Boy's breakfast burritos! We ordered the "famous breakfast burrito" with ham. When I picked up my order I was so surprised by how hefty this burrito was! It is loaded with hash browns, eggs, meat, avocado, and cheese with a side of salsa. You can easily split this burrito among two people. Hands down the best breakfast burrito I've had, and I would gladly drive an hour to get another one. It was super busy right before the Rose Bowl game but there surprisingly wasn't much of a line to order food. They seem to be quite efficient! There's also a small parking lot in the back and plenty of free street parking around the area, which is a bonus. TLDR: This is the best breakfast burrito I've ever had and I can't wait to come again! read more

Lucky Boy - Famous Breakfast Burrito w/ Ham - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

First of all...hot! The space is hot!!! I've been here many times but today was disappointing. Picked up some fries and they completely skipped my order. I had to ask about my order- that wasn't as big a problem for me as the wait time and quality of the fries. The fries alone were tragic- flavorless and both overcooked and undercooked I ended up tossing the whole thing. Their chili fries are fire! As well as their breakfast burritos but just plain fries is challenging. I really wanted the chili fries but thought the plain fries would be quicker. 20 min wait and I guess the jokes on me for ordering plain fries. read more

Post hang over breakfast burritos. Get the breakfast burrito. I mean, try everything. BUT you should know, in case you don't, that Lucky Boy is known for their burritos. I ask for easy hash bc they go heavy, but it's a personal call. I've been coming to Lucky Boy's since HS. Expect a line, but a fast moving line. And you can easily place a phone order ahead of time. I'll end it here since I'm starting to rhyme. Team Lucky Boy's. read more

Came on a Tuesday evening around 10PM and it wasn't that busy. You order at the window inside. We got our food within 10-15 minutes. This place is known for their breakfast burritos and you can easily tell why. They pack it with so much and it's so good. The salsa was bomb dot com. I put that in every bite. The fish burrito was pretty good too, made 10 times better with the salsa. There's a parking lot next to the restaurant. read more

Lucky Boy - Bacon 1/4 Lb. Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

If you're from the LA area then of course you've heard of Lucky Boy. They're consistently voted the best breakfast burrito in LA, despite being in Pasadena ;). The breakfast burrito is a monster and made perfect to how I like it. I'm not a huge fan of egg heavy breakfast burritos and this is far from it. It is filled to the brim with bacon and hash browns with the perfect amount of egg. The only thing that was missing was some tapatío to douse it in. I highly recommend it. What you may not know, is that their pastrami sandwiches are also excellent. It is very heavy on the meat but if that's your jam you will be more than satisfied. I went on Christmas Eve, but it was not at all crowded. You order from the window and have the option of sitting inside. The interior reminds me of the early 90s McDonalds decor which was a huge throwback for me and activated all the nostalgia receptors. read more

Lucky Boy - Breakfast Burrito - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

Husband had what he calls the best patty melt he has ever had. It was the perfect combo of crispy toast and juicy beef. I had a Turkey burger Patty, no bun and it came with tomato and lettuce. It was perfectly grilled and juicy. Great flavor. Son got the pastrami burger but complained that the pastrami was cold and it was disconcerting. The fries were solid with good flavor and crisp. Daughter got the cheeseburger and said it was 4.195 stars. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was the side of rice. It tasted like cheap dish soap. First bite, tasted flowery. I tried it again. Yup, soap. You order at the counter and there are tables right in front. We chose the tables in the back because we had our dog with us. Definitely worth a try. I hear their breakfast burritos are amazing! read more

Super busy with blue collar and office workforce. That's how you know the food is going to be delicious!

The burgers/fries Etc are all amazing as well! read more

I've need coming here for years and love it still! The breakfast burrito is my go to, but I like it w bacon and sausage. The salsa give it that nice added touch, too.

Lucky Boy's known for it's famous breakfast burritos in L.A., so it has been on my list for quite a while. It's just...so far from where I usually visit. So when I found myself in the area, I didn't hesitate on coming here! Although Lucky Boy itself clearly is one of those local joints with a bit of everything, I would not be swayed and got the famous breakfast burrito. It's literally labeled as such on the menu! Anyways, it was filled in with potatoes, eggs, sausage, and bacon from what I could tell. Now I usually prefer my breakfast burritos to be more egg-heavy rather than potato-heavy, but I really liked this one. Simple, yet tasty and filling. It could have had a tad bit more flavor, but throw some of the salsa on and you're fine. Service is fine, no complaints here. So is this breakfast burrito the best I have ever had? No. But certainly worth the trip since I was in the area. Not sure I would go out of my way for it though. read more

Alright MFs. I have the final say...the Breakfast burrito is a GEM. Anyone else who says different is ridiculous. What's there not to love about eggs, potatoes, sausage, ham, and bacon? Plus the portions are generous and if you want extra flavor, the salsa (although not spicy) is delicious and tasty. Lastly, let's be real. It's $20 to eat anywhere now. Stop being cheap. read more

Lucky Boy - Breakfast Burrito, 3 Ways - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

So crowded and so hectic upon walking in. the service is quick - you order at the window and they call you within about 10 minutes. Ordered the Bfast burrito vegetarian which meant they added avocado. It's massive and very very filling. However because of the heavy carbs inside, it would have tasted better with some sauce/salsa. The salsa they provided wasn't my favorite so I'd recommend adding your own hot sauce or adding their chilis. Fries are amazing so yum and hot. read more

Hadn't been in the area in a while and wanted one of their breakfast burritos. Although the size of it is massive, the overall taste was not good. I don't understand how a breakfast burrito can be so bland even with their salsa. In my opinion, the burrito at top burger, although smaller They do a better job of blending the ingredients and just taste way better. Big waste of $12. Another pet peeve of mine for this burrito was that all the ingredients or clumped together so it was either a bite of all egg all bacon or all hashbrowns. They should've done a better job of blending everything together so you get a little bit of everything in each bite. read more

There's a constant flow of people ordering at the counter, a tell tale sign this is the go-to spot in the heart of Pasadena. read more

Lucky Boy - Bacon Breakfast Burrito - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

I come here every time I'm craving comfort food in the mornings. I'm a breakfast food connoisseur and usually pretty picky about my burritos. Yesterday, I came in and ordered my usual supreme breakfast burrito half sausage half bacon and it never fails me!!! I also love their breakfast plate from time to time. Pancakes are large, and super fluffy. Bacon is perfectly crisp and not too salty like most. They also cook the eggs perfectly. 100% delicious and bang for your buck in Pasadena !!! read more

Food was a 10/10. Unfortunately, Mario at register 2 was extremely rude and lacked basic customer service

My girlfriend and I live within 10 minutes of Lucky Boy so we come more often than we'd like to admit. This has become our staple for a breakfast burrito and something we crave often. Typically I get the sausage breakfast burrito and my girlfriend gets the bacon. If you're feeling up for a side I recommend the Zucchini Fries. Not only is the order HUGE but the texture is perfect. An order of 2 burritos, zucchini fries, and a large soda came out to $37. There isn't a lot of parking but there is neighboring street parking. It does get crowded, especially on the weekends, but it's always worth it! read more

Came here cuz the breakfast burrito is served all day and we rarely get up early enough for breakfast. The burrito is indeed huge. And the primary complaint of potatoes being flavorless is true. However I wouldn't say it's necessarily a deal breaker since the meats are very salty and you can season with their house salsa and ketchup. The one tip I would highly recommend is the cook of the potato. The hash should be crispy not soppy like mash potatoes. Chili cheese fries were delicious, could use a tad more chili but still good. They have their own parking lot with plenty of parking and even offer curb side pick up at the back parking. Note: no street parking on arroyo after 3pm. read more
