Zankou Chicken - Pasadena

The store/restaurant is very plain looking and not fancy at all. But it can be surprising how very tasty their rotisserie chicken is. The best in town. A little pricey $15) for one medium size whole chicken compared to Costco $5) huge chicken. But the chicken tastes amazing and the white creamy spread is awesome. So to me it is very much worth it.

Did not enjoy my experience here tonight. Oh be been coming to this location for 9yrs and I can tell you that as a local that has been part of this community for sometime I am disappointed. I used to get excited and even drive 5mi to come to this location and enjoy the food that’s here. But man I feel like they’ve spent time to really breakdown your enjoyment of the food and environment. They actually changed what the serve you and the pictures do not accurately display what you’ll get on your plat. Too bad. I wish I could have left here with an enjoyable memory. I give 1 outta 3’s if only just because the food was still good. Gotta pick your game up Pasadena Zankou.

Had a lule beef wrap. $13 total) 25 min wait. I was so disappointed this time. I’ve eaten at other locations but this one really was not good. No flavor whatsoever. Not a pleasant experience. Size is very small.

Still the best flavored chicken in SoCal. Visited the Pasadena restaurant, the Persian flavored flair doesn’t disappoint you. Whenever I need to have a good appetite for chicken I always have to stop by to taste their delicious chicken when visiting Pasadena or Glendale.

We were a family of three visiting from Virginia. I wanted persion food and my husband was looking for showerma searching on the web when found Zankou’s chicken. I’m telling you we were not disappointed. The food is fresh and absolutely delicious the kobideh was so fresh and the shawerma mixed was a chef’s kiss Definitely recommend trying it!
