I know Lucky Boy has a loyal following, but it just didn't live up to the hype for me. It wasn't bad--it was just okay. The burger reminded me more of Burger King than a legendary local burger stand, and the zucchini fries were surprisingly bland. Even the ranch dressing was disappointing, especially compared to Original Tops, which I think does it much better. The portions are huge, but I'd rather have quality over quantity. The one thing that really stood out was the pastrami. That was excellent and easily the highlight of the meal. Overall, I can see why people like it, but I'd choose Original Tops every time.
Heard a lot of great things about this place from my co workers and decided to give it a try. My expectations were met and I was pleasantly surprised. It looks like it is a hole in the hall kind of place, but it is massively popular with a lot of foot traffic. It must have been spread by word of mouth and for good reason. Service: they are very very quick with making the food. You order outside and pick up inside. Ambiance: there is plenty of space for parking as well as the restaurant itself. Lots of seating inside and some outside as well. They have a bar for you to get sides, utensils, and Togo stuff. Food: they are famous for their breakfast burritos, I ended up getting a burrito two ways with bacon and sausage. It was HUGE! It was bigger than my forearm and the food was so so good. The sausage was whole and juicy, the bacon was crispy and not burnt, the eggs were moist and flavorful, and the tortilla was warmed on the grill. The portions are MASSIVE the burrito can definitely be shared between two people. It ended up being $14 but with it shared between two people that comes out to be $7 per person so very affordable. Overall, this place is very good if you're in the mood for a breakfast burrito. The quality is fantastic and the price is amazing.
The streak fries were hot and fresh and burritos were pretty big, but lots of tortilla. Nothing spectacular that I would come back to. They also charge for extra salsa.
I've heard these breakfast burritos are the go to if you want a breakfast burrito and that statement couldn't be more right. This is a burger joint with a diverse menu, including one of the biggest breakfast burritos in town. I got my burrito with bacon. The burrito comes with hashbrown style potatoes, eggs and cheese - you get a choice of ham, bacon or sausage for your meat (or have it without meat). The bacon was crispy and remained crispy when I reheated my other half. Not only is the bacon crispy, the burrito has a generous amount of it! Oh and the other plus - the tortilla does not come wet and soggy and remains in perfect condition if you have leftovers. The burrito comes with only one salsa and to be honest, you really do need two for such a big burrito. I'm a green salsa girl but I asked what I should go with and I was recommended the red one (the green one is supposedly spicier). The red salsa did not disappoint other than I needed one more for my whole burrito (there's no kick to this salsa but it's tasty). The burrito itself isn't bursting with flavor on its own and it requires the salsa to compliment the other ingredients. But, who eats a breakfast burrito without salsa? There is ample parking in their parking lot and there's seating both inside and outside. I will definitely be returning to satisfy my breakfast burrito craving very soon and if this is what you're looking for - stop reading reviews and go get you one at Lucky Boy (it's served all day).
Super yummy! This is a great burger spot. My burger was pretty yummy and I loved the chili cheese fries. My husband got a pastrami sandwich and it was huge. The sandwich was loaded with a ton of pastrami! So we took the extra pastrami that was falling out of the sandwich and put it on top of the chili cheese fries and that was super good. I loved the pastrami way more than the pastrami from The Hat. It has a different and better flavor than other pastrami I have had. It is a bit pricey but I do think these are typical prices now since inflation and everything is just more expensive these days. We paid about $36 and got a large drink, a large chili cheese fries, a pastrami sandwich, and a cheese burger. Super yummy and I'll definitely be coming back. This will be one of my go to burger spots
This is our first time at Lucky Boy and we our trying their delicious items on thier menu especially their famous pastrami. Friends were telling me go to Lucky Boy in Pasadena and try their burgers and especially their two popular items their breakfast burrito and their famous pastrami. Then I heard pastrami I told my wife let's go Lucky Boy and try their delicious mouth-watering pastrami. We arrive there and step in the restaurant and look at their menu displaying on the screen,we look and found what we looking for the pastrami we order it and side salad and two drinks. The interior of the restaurant is really nice with awards and pictures of Pasadena and pictures of Lucky Boy through the years. Couple minutes later they our number my pickup our meal,I notice the pastrami was pretty big but the aroma was overwhelming smell of pastrami. Unwrapped the pastrami smell fantastic it was cut in half then I give the other half to wife. I took a bite of my half pastrami I say to my wife OMG so much flavors in the pastrami and very juicy. The juices of the pastrami is so good,the meat was lean and have some fat but fat is good it bring flavor to pastrami that make so good. My wife love the pastrami and enjoy it. The side salad was very good. Overall we enjoy the pastrami at Lucky Boy we will come back for more pastrami sandwich or try different items from their menu.
Juicy and tasty hot pastrami sandwich. Open until midnight, perfect spot for post workout bites, will be back for sure! Grab a seat where you can hear the dude yelling out pickup order numbers, free entertainment, haha. Iykyk. Note: items on the video menu with pictures do not appear a second time on the list menu, so you kinda have to look at both.
I tried the breakfast burrito with sausage, egg, cheese and bacon! It was $14. Burrito was large enough to feed 2 people. The eggs are cheesey and there's a generous amount of the bacon. There's a free parking lot. There's outdoor and indoor seating available.
We saw so many videos about the infamous breakfast burritos at Lucky Boy in Pasadena that we decided to check it out for ourselves. My kids and I brought our appetite! The burritos were huge and filled with so much bacon, hash, and scrambled eggs. If you don't want bacon you can order your burritos with sausage. The service was quick and their staff were very helpful.They really know how to keep the line moving.
Lucky Boy A patient of mine was recommending this place as a good breakfast spot for breakfast burritos. I am a big breakfast burrito advocate. I do like them a certain way, though. I gave this place a try early in the morning. Plenty of parking before 8am on a weekday. It had very retro diner vibes and the service was very quick. The burrito was massive, and it was pretty good. I only wished I could choose more than one meat, I ended up with bacon, which was extremely crispy. The potatoes were a bit overwhelming for me. You'll definitely be full after this meal!
i was here for the breakfast burrito since i hear so many good things about it - but it was rather disappointing. the portion is good though! the surprise was the zucchini fries which i'd come back for again, and maybe try their burgers!
I visited this location on a Sunday. The venue has a small private lot so parking is doable. There is also street parking if the lot is full. Ordering is done outside via a window. The menu is vast as it has breakfast & lunch options. I opted for the famous breakfast burrito with bacon & a lemonade. I was not prepared for that burrito. Size is comparable with chipotle. The burrito comes with a side of salsa which was nice. Indoor seating is also available with traditional diner booths. Self serve ketchup, pepper, napkins, & peppers are available as well. The burrito was a 9/10 for me as I felt it needed a bit more seasoning. Overall, a very yummy burrito. The staff were open to questions & very kind. It can be a bit loud as the venue can get packed however the venue has a nice selection of music ranging in genres which was a plus. I def want to come back for the zucchini fries & to try one of the burgers.
I read the reviews on Lucky Boy and had to try this place. It did not disappoint on food, staff friendliness, & customer satisfaction. For years I passed this place and never noticed it, but learned from another customer it's a staple for locals and more. Order outside and pick up inside. Tables outside and inside. I ordered the burrito (avocado, lettuce, cheese, & pico de gallo). It was delicious and huge like others stated. I used their fork for size reference. My husband had their pastrami ruben. We both took 1/2 of ours home. Definitely will return to try more on their menu!

Thank you Lenzzel! we appreciate your business. We hope to have you…
Established in 1961, Lucky Boy has received numerous accolades for Best Breakfast Burrito in Pasadena. It's huge and can easily be two meals. They have an extensive menu featuring breakfast dishes, Mexican specialties, burgers, sandwiches, salads, tasty sides, and even Vegan & Vegetarian items. The food is hearty & the prices are reasonable. I mainly come here for the onion rings & fried zucchini. It's been years since my last visit, so I stopped in for onion rings. You order at the counter outside and pick up inside. (There is indoor & outdoor seating.) The onion rings are prepared fresh daily, made from their own recipe, and come with house made ranch that is bomb! The serving size was generous (even for a small $8.05) and they were hot, crispy, & not greasy. Dipping them in the ranch was the extra special added touch. *Private parking lot or street parking. read more

This is an iconic Pasadena location that's been around longer than I've been alive. While the fries are good and the burger is solid, there is nothing special here to set it apart from other local spots. The staff is standard and the vibe is your typical retro stand. $20 for a burger, fries, and a drink. The value doesn't justify the hype. It isn't a bad meal, but it certainly didn't earn my praise. read more

Ordering came on a Friday around 10:15am you know this place is loved heavily by the community! Their breakfast burritos live up the size hype especially in this economy! The burrito is legit as big as my face elongated! Food came out fast too! The inside tells so much history! The burrito its self was pretty bland definitely recommend adding a side of ranch or another salsa! read more

Nostalgic, comfort food is what its giving. I used to gather with my friends when I was a school girl and we used to put money together to share a burger and chili fries and this took me back! We had a cheeseburger, chili fries, taquitos with guac and of course classic milkshakes! They were so delicious. Lucky Boy is known for their breakfast burrito but there's so much more! read more

This morning, I saw a breakfast burrito online and wanted to eat a breakfast burrito, so I made a commitment to come here and drive up through the wavy 110n freeway to get a burrito I haven't had for close to a decade. I gotta breakfast avocado burrito and the person I went with got a sausage breakfast burrito. It felt like they put an entire avocado in my burrito. It was hot and steamy all the way through and the salsa just makes it so delightful to eat. The sausage breakfast burrito came with 5 whole pieces of sausage. In addition to the main ingredient, there were crispy hash browns, eggs and cheese in the burritos. Plus they were like maybe 3 times bigger than what you'd find at a typical breakfast burrito joint. All for $11.90 in this economy? I feel that pricing is better than practically anywhere in LA for a breakfast burrito nowadays. The service was quick and attentive. There is a diner to eat in with a patio. If I could've ate more, I would've got more things. But it's definitely worth going here to get some extra large, hot and steamy breakfast burritos for sure! read more

Thought I reviewed this sometime ago! I've been here at least 4 times in the last year. It's been consistent every time- clean, quick, fresh & hot food! You can order at the outside window. There's seating in or outdoors. It's a bit pricey- regular sized fountain drink is $3 and side of fries $5. Zucchini fries very bland. Would be good with seasoning salt & garlic, but you get a very big amount. Fries are good standard ones. read more

Breakfast burrito is absolutely massive and a good deal for $12. I only ate half for breakfast and had the other half for lunch. Order came out 3-4 min after ordering which is pretty quick considering how many people were there. Very generous on the bacon and it's super crunchy! The potatoes were a little soft for my preference, tots would've made this thing perfect! The salsa was just mid. read more

We came by in the afternoon and got a bacon breakfast burrito and a sausage breakfast burrito. We wanted to try the chorizo one, but we came after 10:30am -- next time! The burritos were huge. Lots of potato. Fillings are not evenly distributed so each bite is a mystery. Straightforward diner experience. The booths were cozy. Seemed like a nice place to sit and yap. read more

Thanks Maggie! Glad you all had a fun time!
First time here.... Been wanting to come since I saw them on IG. Didnt realize you ordered at a window and hoped for seating inside. My mom was really craving a hot dog and they had them on the menu, so she got that. I ordered the carne asada burrito with guacamole and cheese. I thought I ordered the breakfast version but I did not. We also ordered a med French fry. The fries were bomb! The hit dog was a good size, and she really liked it. Ok, the burrito was huge and stuffed! It had rice, beans, carne, cheese, guac and pico. I could only eat about a quarter of it. The carne was sliced, not chopped as I thought it was be, but good flavor and tender. The gentleman at the window was very nice, but I felt rushed...especially since it was my first time- I had questions. We went in and grabbed a table and waited no more than 10 minutes for our food. Overall, great place and delicious food. Will definitely go back. read more

Delicious pastrami chili cheese fries here! Some of the best around. It was my first visit here and i saw people on tik tok talking about them so got on the metro and took a trip. You can catch the blue line all the way to the fillmore station and walk one block here if you want to save gas and time driving in traffic. But yes the pastrami with onions they put on this plate is top notch! You can get a large or small. My picture is the small and is enough for one person to eat! They are famous for their breakfast burritos but that will be for another day when i come back. Crew here is pretty nice. They have outside and inside seating. They have a bathroom in the back which is a bonus. Overall i had a good experience here and would come back. Pastrami Chili cheese fries 9.0\10 rating! read more

Been coming to this spot on Saturday morning after the gym for years now. It's always the busiest during this time simply because of one thing: their famous breakfast burritos. So this review is only for their breakfast burritos, and not any of their other menu items. Pros: - Large. They stuff a lot of egg, potatoes and your protein in there. You will be full after you eat one and you'll probably have to skip lunch. - Salsa. Their red sauce is delicious and they give you plenty of it. It's not too spicy at all; just enough heat to spice things up. And it tastes fresh. Cons: - Inconsistent. Sometimes the potatoes inside aren't crisped enough and are a bit undercooked. Bacon is often overcooked and will just about wreck the inside of your mouth. - Cut the sausages please. Instead, they just lazily stuff the uncut links inside and there's an uneven distribution of the meat. You'll need to take 3 or 4 bites to get your first taste of sausage. - A little pricey. Not the best breakfast burrito I've ever had, but definitely solid and filling for sure. read more

Small ish parking lot and can get busy in the mornings/ at noon. We came Saturday before noon around 11 and just beat the rush. The portions are big but one thing that caught me off guard was how different my burrito was from my friends. We both ordered the bacon burrito and there was such a HUGE difference in ingredient potions, idk how it could've happened even if they were busy. That would be the only con especially since I wouldn't want me burrito to be majority potato /: Overall it's a basic spot where you can grab something to eat and still be satisfied and not expect a ton read more

I've been coming to Lucky Boys since high school--almost 25 years now--and that's about the strongest endorsement I can give. For all those years, I've been loyal to one thing: their legendary breakfast burrito. It's every bit as good as the hype, and it's kept me coming back for decades. Today, though, I finally ventured outside my comfort zone and ordered the grilled chicken club on sourdough. All I can say is: wow. It was absolutely phenomenal. The chicken was perfectly grilled, the ingredients were fresh, and the sourdough tied everything together beautifully. I couldn't believe I'd been missing out all these years. Lucky Boys is famous for their breakfast burritos, and rightfully so, but don't make the mistake of thinking that's all they do well. Their menu is packed with great options, and if the grilled chicken club is any indication, they consistently deliver quality across the board. This is one of those rare places where you could genuinely eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day and never get tired of it. After nearly 25 years of coming here, Lucky Boys is still one of my favorite spots in Pasadena, and it's as good as ever. Highly recommended! read more

Breakfast burrito craving net. Though maybe there's more egg and potatoes vs. sausage.... Still yummy and giant. For what you pay plus the salsa, Ismael this a regular spot. Super simple inside an outside, it's definitely a smaller party situation. Or as always, pick up! Parking is alright. Not a ton but enough. Service is fast and friendly. Perfect for a super simpler hole in the wall local joint. read more

Absolutely filthy. The food isn't half bad. I ordered pastrami fries and although the fries were super soggy, there was a thick layer of melty cheese topped with juicy, greasy, meaty pastrami. The side of ranch was the cherry on top. But my god. This restaurant is disgusting. Sticky floors, sticky counters, sticky tables, dirty seats, trash on the floor, overflowing trash cans, bathroom covered in lord knows what, this place honestly needs to be failed by the health department. read more
Originally opened in 1961, this spot is most famous for their breakfast burritos and burgers. They specialize in quick, casual, large sized to-go orders, however, there is an area where you can eat inside at one of their many booths. I have been here a few times and every time, even if there is a line, I never have to wait long for my order. There is a large free parking lot attached so parking is really easy and plentiful. They have a very large menu with all sorts of different options on it, but for this most recent visit, I got the Double Cheeseburger with avocado and loved it. The patties are really well seasoned, and they threw a ton of avocado on it which I loved. It's just a really great comfort food option and really hits the spot when you're in that mood. I also ordered a bowl of their Chili, and really liked it. It's one of the better versions in the area and I would recommend if you are a fan. read more

This is a place that is a Staple of Pasadena. Been here for so long. It a diner with a great Breakfast Burrito. That they are known for. Their portions are big. And it a great bang for your buck. You can get it to go or order in. You have to walk up to the window to order. The 3 meat Breakfast Burrito and the Pastrami sandwich are my favorites here. They are fast to get your meal out. The worker are helpful and courteous. The place is casual. So you don't have to dress up. There is plenty of parking around the building. So you don't have to pay for it or walk far. Breakfast and lunch time always had a line. So get there early. Or just go for dinner or a late dinner. Usually a bit less of a crowd. But every day is different. But the food is always the same. read more

Ask the Community - Lucky Boy
Do they have beer battered onion rings?
Lucky boy has their own recipe for their onion rings which are famous since 1961. They do not use beer.
Did the bacon change? The last couple of times getting the breakfast burrito the bacon had a sweet taste to it
I ordered the sausage burrito but don't think they change out the bacon.
How's the rueben sandwich? I was just at the arroyo Pkwy location and I was informed they don't have it?
It's actually a Classic Rueben. And it's very good.
Will you be open the morning January 2nd 2023?
I've eaten there on New Year's Day after the Rose Parade in past years, so I'm almost certain they will be open.
Wait, so can we order breakfast burrito's all day or only until 10:30am??Thanks in advance🙏🏼☀️
Breakfast Burritos should be available all day, only Chorizo stops being served by 11am.
Help me decide, fellow Yelpers - for my first time, should I go for a breakfast burrito with pastrami or pastrami chili cheese fries? Are the burritos still served all day…
Get the breakfast burrito HALF BACON/ HALF SAUSAGE and pastrami fries on side!! The burritos are served allday, the signs just old like the owner lol!! Get an orange bang or horchata while you're at it!!!
Does anyone OG from Pasadena know if this is the same Lucky Boy from the late eighties/early nineties that made bomb ground beef tacos? I'm headed down south next week and I need to know if I should detour!
yes it is original lucky boys
Are breakfast burritos all day? my life depends on this answer just FYI
Yes, all day! And it's not cash only. They accept card. I paid with card today. Chip and all.
Can you get the breakfast burrito without meat or are they pre-made?
Made to order. If u want no meat ask for no meat.
