Ended up getting the pastrami chili cheese fries and it was absolutely delicious even though I wasn't able to finish it, the overall service and atmosphere is family oriented and very friendly. Thank you ! read more

I've previously had good experiences with their famous breakfast burrito, but the one I got today was horrible. It was a sausage burrito, and there was a whole sausage link inside that wasn't even cut. The bigger crime was that 1/2 to 2/3 of the burrito was just potatoes. I don't think I'll go back anymore... read more

The famous BREAKFAST BURRITOS here at Lucky Boy is not the same! Same prices and significantly LESS eggs! Sign of the times with national egg shortage I understand, but they either need to "charge more money" for "eggs" and keep the ratio of the breakfast burritos the same; or run the risk of unhappy customers. People will notice in time. I love Lucky Boy and will return, but I won't be ordering their breakfast burritos. read more

Lucky Boy - Bacon Avocado Breakfast Burrito with BARELY any EGGS. - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

My gosh! This place is STILL impressive! They are the only ones who give full sausages in your breakfast burrito! We ordered 1 egg sausage burrito, taquitos and chili fries for ~$30 and it was enough for both my husband and I to share for brunch AND dinner! Come on! You get the biggest bang for your buck here! I appreciate how consistent they have been throughout the years! Never a disappointment when I return. read more

/)/) ( . .) ( づ breakfast burrito is pretty solid. Too much egg for my liking. Way more eggs than protein... it tastes like an egg burrito. Asada burrito was good but the meat was too chewy and dry... Onion rings are too bready and dry. Would not recommend. Please skip it was not good. Zucchini fries were okay. Would get them again though. Order comes out pretty fast and parking is easy! read more

Tried this place based on comedian Bobby Lee saying it's his favorite, but we were both fairly disappointed. Long story short, the staff are friendly but shout and speed everyone through like it's a manufacturing line in a factory, the annoying loud speaker announcing orders every 60 seconds is on max volume for no reason at all and makes it not enjoyable to eat there, and when you get your food, literally nothing is seasoned and it's all bland as heck. I can only speak to the veggie breakfast burrito but looking at other reviews, it seems like this place doesn't season or flavor anything and they probably rely on the meat sauces to give all the flavor which is sort of lazy cooking strategy. It was a bummer tasting nothing. The positives, the portions are huge and the food came out pretty quick. read more

Gigantic burritos, friendly staff, quick service. I went to Luckys during my commute and was pleasantly surprised. There are a ton of breakfast burrito variations (including vegan)! I got the vegetarian burrito with salsa verde. It was so big I ate half for breakfast and half for lunch. Next time I'll ask for the hash browns to be slightly crisper! read more

Only had their breakfast burrito, but I will say, it was very tasty, fast to get, and large! I liked that they put alot of meat and the potatoes are cooked perfectly. There isn't a drive thru, but they do have seating inside. I personally wouldn't take someone on a date here as it is not a fancy place, but definitely for take out. read more

Ambiance super casual! You order outside at the window. It's a walk up. There are tables to eat st outside but also inside as well. Parking spaces are pretty tight. It's a busy location so make sure to have your order ready when you get up to the window. I picked my food up inside but some people picked their food up from the pick up window outside. Condiments napkins and utensils are inside We ordered our breakfast burritos to go. They pack these burritos with lots of bacon and sausage. My husband ordered all bacon, both were delicious!! This place has been around for years and has consistent quality! Definitely recommend! read more

Breakfast burritos here are hefty and huge! Classically packed with all the staple ingredients-- fluffy eggs, cheddar cheese, layers of hash browns, and your choice of breakfast meat (sausage, ham, or bacon). I only wished the sausage had been a bit more tender; it was plentiful but dense. On its own it leans on the milder side flavor-wise, making it a good choice if you prefer something hearty and not overly seasoned. read more

The portion is great for the price. The burrito is massive and they do not hold back on the meat while keeping everything balanced so nothing is too overpowering. The bacon was so good and I would say this is above average for a burrito. The chili cheese fries were very tasty and the fries were not overly soggy. Such a good combo and I barely finished it all so I would recommend this meal for two people who get full easily. read more

I was craving Lucky Boy since I haven't had it in about 4 years. So when I was in the Pasadena area, I stopped by to get pick up some deliciousness for lunch. I ordered the famous breakfast burritos. I ordered one with bacon and one with sausage. The size of the burrito is pretty much the size of your forearm packed with lots of sausages and bacon. It might be a little bit expensive but you definitely get what you pay for. I also order their chili cheese fries, which is a must because I saw it on almost every table. It was so cheesy and delicious. I also got their onion rings and their zucchini fries. We enjoyed them both as well. The only thing I didn't like was that they only gave you one red or one green sauce for your burritos and if you want extras, you would have to pay for it. If you're ever in the area, definitely stop by this local gem. read more

I've been coming to this humble stand-alone for years for one item: the breakfast burrito. The huge flour tortilla is stuffed evenly with all the breakfast goods: eggs, potatoes, cheese and bacon! The eggs are quasi-scrambled and fried to perfection and ingredients are evenly distributed across the tortilla, so you taste everything in each bite. But the best part is the salsa they serve on the side. It's spicy, tangy, chef's kiss good! You can order at the window or go inside. It's pretty small inside. There might be a little wait for your food and that's because they're cooking it up fresh. The wait is never terrible. The food is always good. Great spot for fast enough food. read more

My boyfriend used to come here when he was little, so on our trip to Pasadena we stopped by to get some brunch. He got the chili cheese fries, which are his favorite! They were really good. I got a sausage breakfast burrito, it wasn't the greatest, the sausage wasn't cut up inside so there was a lot of whole pieces of sausage in there and no pico de gallo which i definitely need in my breakfast burritos. They seemed to have a lot of stuff on the menu, so I would be curious to come by here and try something else! read more

I trusted the recent 5 star review raving how it's "still" amazing, but I should've trusted the recent photos showing the inconsistent portions in the breakfast burrito. Honestly, I thought to myself that maybe I'd be the fortunate one to get a great meat, egg to hash brown ratio but unfortunately I was the unlucky one. The full size sausage is just one, maybe two of the sausage tiny links from Denny's (not actually from Denny's but giving you an idea of what it looks like) The hashbrowns and eggs lacked seasoning (see photo). We waited a few minutes at the window to ask for green salsa since they automatically gave us red salsa and walked away just as fast as they set the food down. Finally when someone came back & we quickly asked for green salsa, he very rudely and abruptly said they were out. He made it seem like it was the most annoying question to be asked. Tip: tape a piece of paper on the window saying "no green salsa today" then you won't have to be bothered by questions. My boyfriend said the burrito would be worth it if it was under $10 since it is very large. (It was right under $12 for 1 breakfast burrito so idk how that yelper got 2 for $16.) For the value (under $10) it would be worth it, but for taste, I'd probably pay $7 since I'd have to season it heavily myself. They also charge extra for more salsa. I care more about flavor than portion size. I ate less than half cause every bite was just disappointing. The hashbrown gets seasoned on the grill but they put tons of hashbrown on the grill that only a portion ends up getting the seasoning/crisp so hopefully you get a good scoop. I had a $5 breakfast burrito in Santa Ana be better than this (forgot the name but it's near city hall and they have a $5 burrito sign on their lawn) I've also had $11-15 burritos (Huntington Beach- (Succulent & Boardriders) & (Long Beach -EggBred) that are way tastier with better salsa. Boardriders doesn't charge extra for salsa. Succulent does, not sure about EggBred. Succulent's salsa is the best out of the 3 though, but all 3 salsas of Boardriders taste great. Lucky Boy's was packed with people. The lot is tiny, but we got lucky to pull in as someone was leaving. I've no idea what everyone else ordered to make it a packed house, but the breakfast burrito is not worth the hype. If you live in Orange County, don't waste your time driving all the way out here. read more

Very down to earth place that's always popping and busy with customers coming and going. Served delicious breakfast burritos. Huge and super filling. I suggest never eat one whole in one sitting, you'll feel so heavy and regret it after. Instead, split into two! Their chili cheese fries look yummy too. Gotta try that next time! They also serve other things like burgers and salads and fries. Pros: -you order from the outside window -self serve condiments and water refill station -fast order, fast service, they're all about throughout with good food -plenty of seating inside and outside -small but free parking lot Cons: -extra salsa is 50 cents each read more

We have always enjoy the food but the afternoon young staff is extremely rude and dismissive. These guys are slow and even have time to lean on the counter and chat away. This being said while the place is packed with customers waiting on food. I counted three customers that asked for things and the staff just ignored and made it seem like they were being bothered with questions. Management needs to look and address the lack of customer service skills. No simple hello or thank you was ever heard at any point. read more

Lucky Boy is located on Arroyo Pkwy right across Trader Joe's. Been hearing about their double patty melt so I decided to try it out. It was pretty good, though I wish I'd have tried a triple. The grilled onions on the toasted buttery rye bread gave it a very flavorful profile. Cheese on the patties were melted perfectly. Parking is plentiful in the back and lots of tables available inside and outside. Service was fast and the guys are nice and helpful. I'll be back to try a triple. read more

Worst cheeseburger I've ever had. The meat patty was sad. Full of lettuce. I got the avocado bacon cheeseburger and it was just not it. Clumps of avocado and a shit ton of bacon that I think they forgot it was supposed to be a cheeseburger. Threw the whole thing away. One star for the chocolate shake that fulfilled me or else it would be zero. read more

So happy I found this gem on yelp while in the area. The breakfast burritos were so delicious and so reasonably priced compared to other establishments. The burritos were HUGE and service was excellent. $32 for a large Orange bang, 1 bacon and 1 bacon & sausage breakfast burritos. The restaurant was clean and they had a great playlist going on the outside patio. Highly recommend! read more

One of the greatest bacon breakfast burritos around. This place stands ten toes down on these burritos! If you get here early your able to get in and get out. But if your here after 8 be prepared to wait, It gets packed fast. Order at outside windows only a lot of people stand around inside but they only take orders at outside windows. If your going to Pasadena try this Pasadena staple. read more

Lucky Boy - Sauce and a pile of bacon is what I love to see. - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

Travelled from Ventura County on a Lucky Boy run to satisfy a Chili Cheese Fries craving. Expecting a box of goodness, it was a disappointed. The bottom of the cardboard box was soaked in fry oil that had seeped through the Chili Cheese Fries container. When I opened the box, the cheese was a hard mass rather than stringy and hot. The fries were half fried, warm rather than hot, and uncooked crunchy. They were white rather than golden brown. This was not the Lucy Boy Chili Cheese Fries I had waited for. read more

The breakfast burrito is solid. I like how the potatoes were cooked to perfection it melts in your mouth with every bite. They load it up with bacon too. The salsa is delicious not too spicy just enough of kick. I thought there was going to be avocado on it from the pictures on yelp so if you want avocados order it. The breakfast burrito definitely needs it. What was a kill joy was they barely put any ice in my orange bang so it was warm and kind of made it undrinkable. They have interior seating and outdoor seating. I really appreciate how clean it was despite it being really busy. There's lots of free parking they have their own lot. read more

Heard this was a good place for a breakfast burrito but was underwhelmed. You order outside through window and picked up inside. Good amount of seating inside and some tables outside. Quick service. Ordered the carne asada breakfast burrito. Came out very hot but burrito was very bland. The carne asada had no seasoning and tasted like just beef flavor. Tender and good portion but would like some spices on it. The potatoes were soft very few pieces that were crisp. Fluffy egg and melted cheese. The salsa did not have much flavor and was watery. Pastrami chili cheese fries were good. Chili was meaty and lots of melted cheese. Would have to try out other breakfast burrito places first before coming back here. Interested in the chorizo but it is only available before 10:30am. read more

This place is a good breakfast burrito spot but not great. Not sure if I buy the hype given its local legend status. Indoor seating is limited and they definitely aren't trading on ambiance. I think this is more of a "to go" play but you can certainly eat there. I got the works and added avocado but honestly would take the breakfast burrito at Farmer Boys over this place. Worth stopping if you're in the area but wouldn't go out of my way. read more

It had been a good number of years since I was here last and burgers sounded really good. We used to come here quite a bit, back in the day. There was a long line so it looked promising. Unfortunately, it wasn't the same and the family and I were disappointed. Fries were a bit stale, burgers were just meh, and the club sandwich was probably something I just shouldn't order. The bacon was overcooked and stale, will not be ordering again. I think we will wait a bit to come back. read more

Stopped by this small Mexican spot for breakfast burritos and it hit the spot. I got the bacon and the sausage burrito -- both were huge, packed with lots of eggs and potatoes, which I love. The meat really brings the flavor and the red salsa is a great addition for a little spicy kick. The eggs and potatoes themselves could use a bit more salt, pepper, or seasoning -- they're pretty bland on their own -- but honestly, for the sheer size and the fact that the salsa and meat add so much, I don't mind adding a little extra salt and pepper myself. They make the burritos pretty fast and the staff were really friendly. The place is on the smaller side with booths inside and there's a small parking lot behind the building. Definitely planning to come back -- breakfast burritos all day is always a win for me, and I'd love to try some of their other menu items next time too. Great spot if you're craving a big, hearty breakfast any time of day! read more

Breakfast burritos are available all day and the portion size can easily be shared between 2-3ppl/burrito. I opted for a no meat, avocado substitution breakfast burrito. I didn't realize how much potatoes they put in the burrito..no wonder it's so filling! -1star for the sheer amount of potatoes. The flavor isn't anything worth raving about. -2 stars for the service. They weren't too busy on a Wednesday morning, but I felt the older gentleman that served me was dismissive and quick to assume--didn't let me finish my sentences and cut me off multiple times. He definitely made a lasting impression as I immediately checked Yelp to see if there were any other complains about the service. read more

I was re-introduced to Lucky Boy this year. I came here years ago for breakfast, but hadn't been back since. And wow what I was missing. The portions are huge. No picture can do it justice. A single order of fries is easily enough for a family of four. My go to order, the classic BLT, has a massive stack of bacon. Probably 6-8 slices on it. My kids wanted cheese fries and I ordered the cheese on the side, and they gave us like half a block of cheese. We air-fried the leftover fries at night with the cheese and it was amazing. Service is always great. The restaurant was under construction, so things were a bit chaotic last time I went. But they are always pleasant and fast. I would definitely check it out. So much to choose from for lunch, and the epic size breakfast burritos that will fill you up until dinner! read more

Came here late night and the breakfast burritos absolutely hit. Perfect after-hours spot when most places are closed. The burritos were loaded, fresh, and satisfying, eggs cooked right, solid portions, and everything wrapped up tight with great flavor in every bite.

On a recent trip to SoCal I revisited some of the places I used to take my kids on the 60s and 70s for burgers, onion rings, etc. My sister was by my side during this visit and we shared an enormous and very delicious pastrami sandwich and the craveable onion rings. The taste has not changed despite the decades that have passed. No wonder you're still here! Thanks for allowing me to relive my memory and to have it be as I remembered! read more

Best breakfast burritos ever! Lucky Boy's Breakfast Burritos are huge and guaranteed to make you addicted!

Being honest good was not fresh fresh. Flavors didn't hit the spot the location is at a good place good views. Service was fast and easy.

I'm gonna say it.... The best burger in Pasadena! BACON AVOCADO CHEESE BURGER AND MAKE THAT A DOUBLE PLEASE, also 2 sides of ranch. Yeah you can get fries, I prefer a chili cheese dog w/ extra onions next to my burger. Like the perfect combo. Burger and dog what can go wrong??? This is honestly the best burger in town, so much going on between two buns. Juicy, chargrilled, fresh ingredients, and SUPER BOMB! Bacons so crispy! The ranch is one of the best! Oh! Can't forget the breakfast burrito. TOP TEIR, it's like 12 smackaroos for a burrito now, with your pick of bacon, sausage or ham! Wanna be bold get all three! It's heavier than a new born baby! Ha! And don't forget their salsa and chilis! That burrito can feed two people, then again there's me. One burrito please, with fries! Been coming here just over 20 years and nothing has changed. Service is decent, food is perfect. They got indoor/outdoor seating. Old school booths that give you that retro diner feel, and to top it off they got some cool decor and one of the dopest hats with their logo on it. Had to get me one. Really a treat! read more

Lucky Boy is a classic Pasadena establishment. This is my go to for breakfast burritos, but everything else I've tried has been good as well.
