The Flame Broiler

Really this ain’t even a kids bowl. Every other flame broiler i go to gives you a decent size bowl. Except the one in ladera heights and the one in westchester. So sad these are the ones by my house. Go figure it’s the same cooks.

My favorite lunch place around.
It taste healthy to me, the chicken feels like it’s not filled with fillers like other fast food places.
Simple menus, everything taste fresh, what’s not to like?

Chicken portion was very small and kind of burnt the bowl was not filled all the way.

I used to be fond of their chicken veggie bowls. I was excited to know there was a location opening across the street from home. I usually purchase at the USC location. NOT THE SAME. The chicken taste like the gas they use for the grill/​broiler. It’s terrible I let one of the employees know and they couldn’t return my $$. Lefty name and number for the manager due to my concern. It’s been about 1 month and I’ve never heard from them. Two thumbs down.

I came here tonight with my friend Joey. We both order 2 chicken bowls and where cooked by Martin and served by him really scrimp I was disappointed at my chicken bowls !

What I like about Flame Broiler is your food is made to order, you don’t pay extra for brown rice and the veggies are steamed. Their tasty «magic sauce» doesn’t hurt either.

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE! You will only get half the bowl. I love flame broiler but this location sucks! Talk about being skimpy on the food. When I go to the inglewood location they definitely give me my money’s worth but I got back to my office and I was shocked to see what little food I had. Too bad because I was excited that I had a flame broiler near my work, but I will not be wasting my money at this location. Also, this location doesn’t have the kimchee like the inglewood location. Even the girl next to me was shocked to see how little there was in her bowl and we both agreed that the Century location is SO MICH BETTER.

Let’s start off with the fact that me and my gf waited about 15 minutes for two bowls, and there was no one else but us, so the wait was a bit ridiculous. And then we drive away just to find out that our bowls are half full, with very little rice and vegetables. So that was a bummer, it didn’t even fill me up. And then when I finally sit down and eat my half filled bowl, the chicken and beef were burnt to a crisp. Had a horrible over-​charred taste to it. I do not recommend going to this one. Wish I could get a refund, instead this bowl is going in the trash.

I stopped by this place on my way to Airport where I usually work. I used to own a restaurant and I am qualified to make a fair review.
I asked the waitress what the best food they could offer. She recommended chicken with veggies plate so I ordered that. Oh boy! First it smells horrible. I hesitated to even try it. But I said let me try it anyway. It is not going to kill me. I tried it anyway. It tasted terrible. I throw it in the trash. The chicken was old spiced very poorly. Absolutely no flavor. It makes me hate eating chicken. I usually eat grill fish or grill chicken. I even asked her for fish. They do not serve fish at all.
At minimum the meat has to be fresh and black and pepper would do the basic.
I am a very reasonable and fair minded person. But they have be careful what they serve to the public. I feel they also have to earn my business by serving the best they can.
I would not recommend for anyone.

The Good: quick, affordable (not cheap), decent sized portions, chicken cooked and tasty, vegetables crisp, sauces good, customer service friendly.
The Bad: I’d have to stretch here…
The Ugly: place was unwelcoming, poor layout design but clean and spacious.
Will return soon

This is my third time going and I am noticing a lack of constancy in the bowls. The location is clean and the customer service is mediocre. This will probably be the last time I come to this location.

The food was like always amazing. However the restroom was «out of order» definitely threw out whole game plan. Smh disappointed in you Falme Broiler.

Flame broiler has good food but the service needs to improve at this new location. Unprofessional and too much casual convo between employees.

I always stay safe and get their chicken plate with brown rice and veggies. The sauces are a must with your order most definitely. Especially the Magic Sauce, magical things happen to your taste buds. Also for people that are trying to eat healthy, this is a great place for that as well.

Its cool… i go when its what i want. I often fiend for it and have it like 3 days in a row at times. I used to jus think it was okay but have actually fallen in love with the place. Its sometimes dry so i get extra sauces… but yeah it works for me without a doubt.

So, FB is one of my spots. It’s tasty, healthy (chicken/​brown rice, easy onions + a lil ‘magic sauce’) & when they have specials –it is a good deal. I was initially pleased Re: FB in Ladera — initially.
1. No specials. Bad idea, that’s how they got me hooked. Wilshire/​Normandie had $ 4 chicken bowls. Adams/​Fig — $ 5. Downtown had the punch card so eventually you get whatever free. This NEW location had nothing, so a chicken bowl is $ 7.20!
2. No Sriacha
3. Slow as all get out. Seriously? Its chicken & rice.
Then, it was a lil charred. Maybe we coulda shaved a few minutes of the wait time.
The people are nice enough

I came in today, probably the 6^th location I’ve tried for flame broiler. Two observations:
1. The cook absolutely burned my chicken to a crisp, I didn’t eat half of it because it was charred beyond repair. Big negative.
2. This location is a little bigger than I’m used to but they had no a/​c, it was really hot inside. They had fans running but it didn’t do much.

I always get the works. Usually go to the one in westchester … So happy there’s one near me now.

So far so good at this place. I love the angus beef bowl. They also have «magic sauce» which is amazing. Great service and I have never had to wait very long for an order

It’s good for what it is. Cheap. Fast. Relatively healthy.
