Hainanese chicken & fried wings, tender, juicy, flavorful rice
"Despite the on-the-go name, Cluck2Go is a casual sit-down restaurant with locations in Pasadena, Rowland Heights, and Arcadia. Aside from a few snacky sides, the menu is entirely focused on hainan chicken, headlined by a traditional poached chicken, as well as a deep-fried version (with options to choose light or dark meat). For roughly $13, you get two rows of soft, supple cuts of chicken delicately stacked, plus half a box of rice. The ginger-garlic sauce is nice and citrusy, and there’s a small container of pickles as well, ranging from tiny jalapeños to slices of carrots. Our only complaint is that the soup here is a bit bland, and not nearly as flavorful as the competition." - sylvio martins, kat hong, brant cox
"A Pasadena takeout operation specializing in Hainan‑style poached chicken combo packages that feel like homemade feasts—whole chicken with cucumbers, brown rice, green beans, chicken soup, and fried peanuts—plus craveable deep‑fried wings in honey garlic or salt‑and‑pepper styles, making large family gatherings effortless with restaurant‑quality execution." - Eater Staff
"A convenient wing-and-chicken counter near Pasadena City College sourcing bird from a local Chino farm, where salt-and-pepper wings shine for their fresh, firm crispiness and bold seasoning; the shop offers multiple locations in the region and is ideal for grab-and-go hits like the wings (with sticky honey-garlic as a tempting second choice)." - Eater Staff
"Despite the on-the-go name, Cluck2Go is a casual sit-down restaurant with locations in Pasadena, Rowland Heights, and Diamond Bar. The otherwise Chinese-leaning menu has a few wild cards, like the French-style filet mignon, but what you’re here for is the Hainan chicken. For $10.50, you get two rows of soft, supple cuts of chicken stacked delicately on top of one another, plus half a container-full of rice. The ginger garlic sauce is nice and citrusy, and there’s a small container of pickles as well, ranging from tiny jalapeños to slices of carrots. photo credit: Andrea D'Agosto" - Kat Hong
