The Flame Broiler

The Flame Broiler is the best. I can get healthy food at a cheap price. The service here was great and I don’t have any issues whenever I go here.

I come in here when I’m in the area. Quite possibly my favorite flame broiler. I get the beef and veggie bowl, they never skimp on the beef or veggies. Plus: great view of the trains going by. Not loud at all.

This flame brolier is my favorite. The staff is very friendly and give you a lot of food for your money, I highly recommend it :).

Food is always good but the tiger mom asian lady that runs the joint is always coming across as hostile and angry. Deduct 1 star. She was even that way to my wife when she went to get food there (my wife is Asian too) so this bird clearly dislikes all people equally.

It smelled like burned meat from the parking lot. We walked inside and it smelled more. The cook’s grill was filthy; covered with burned meat and he was scraping it off to fill his orders. Even if it was 7pm, the grill should be clean. We walked out.

They will not place your oder like you want it. Chicken is cold and probably old. Cabagge and veggies were bitter, probably old too.

Was looking for a place to eat for lunch and my coworker pointed Flame Broiler out as we were driving down Orangethorpe. Restaurant was fairly clean upon walking in and it was around lunch time. We did feel kind of rushed by the cashier as we were ordering, seems like she probably has an attitude.
Food didn’t take long to come out, I ordered a half and half bowl and my coworker had a chicken bowl. I added some jalapeños and some of the sauce they had sitting on the counter and it was great. The only thing I find a little difficult was that our bowls were so packed that its hard to mix the meat in with the rice. The rice is packed at the bottom and the meat is packed on top so its hard to mix it together.
Food was very tasty but next time I will get it to go so I can bring it home to mix it in a bigger bowl or container.

No serious complaints
This is one of the better Flame Broilers in the area. There are quite a few and they range from terrible to great — this is a solid 3 star middle of the road location.
They get the food right here. The meat is cooked, which is sad that I appreciate that, but I’ve been to a few where the beef and chicken were definitely undercooked. They make sure your bowl is packed with food. You won’t go wrong with the good.
The service is the biggest gripe — the asian lady that always seems to be working at the counter is less than friendly. She makes me feel like she’s doing me the favor of taking my order. And I get tons of coupons from this location in the mail, but bring one in and it seems like her head will explode — I get the «How dare you try and save .50cents here?!»
IF you can ignore that and just focus on the food, then this Flame Broiler will work just fine for you.

I have been going here for years. They have always had good food, and portions. I have been to a bunch of Flame Broilers, but this is my favorite.

Dine in and get an «Chicken Veggie Bowl» and you get LOTS OF veggies! It is awesome! Great service, good food, and it’s healthy and fast! What more could you ask for?!

I HATE cooked cabbage! I always order my bowl without the cooked cabbage. This is the ONLY Flame Broiler that has charged me 50cents to remove the cabbage from my bowl. That’s right, they made me pay for food I’m not even going to eat. RIDICULOUS!!! Based on this alone, we won’t be back. There’s another Flame Broiler less than 3 miles away.
The service could have been better but the food tasted like all Flame Broiler food.

The food is the best of the flame broilers in the area, my chicken/​veggie bowl is always perfect. However, customer service (friendliness) could definitely use some work… that includes the overtly religious music (annoying).

Of all the flame broilers near us, this is our favorite because they are quick and pack the bowls!

A great alternative for lunch. They are quick, but not friendly when it comes to substitutions. That’s okay because the menu is fine and you should be able to pick something you like. Unlike some other FB’s this one usually doesn’t have overly dry chicken. All in all a great lunch stop.

This particular Flame Broiler has been our go-​to take-​out spot for our weekends over the last five years. It’s «The Works» bowl, with an array of fresh-​cut veggies — seriously delicious — and marinated chicken and beef, that’s kept us fans during that time. At $ 5.95 a bowl, «The Works» is a superb value that’s as consistently flavorful as the sun is hot.
Can’t say I’ve seen any service issues, since we’ve only dealt with the shy but very friendly Grace, the owner’s wife, who’s provided us consistently fast service with a nice smile. Keep up the super work, staff at the Orangethorpe Flame Broiler!

Nice quiet place, fast service, good food for on the go.

Workers here are not so friendly. Also they don’t seem to like customizing my order a bit, like putting the sauce on the side and stuff…
Oh, well, there are so many locations, taste quite similar, why should I go back to this location?

This flame broiler is one I go to quite often (1 – 2 times per week). The quality of the food is good and portion sizes are good too. The only thing that makes it 3 stars is the lady at the counter can be so moody. She’s not very friendly and when you pay her she rarely says thank you. Not a huge deal but it would be nice to see her smile and thank you for your business, especially when you visit 4 – 8 times per month. Overall well kept store, plenty of forks and sauce so you never have to bug them.
They’re pretty fast with service too.

Lady at the counter needs to smile more. I thought she was going to slap me while taking my money. Food was fine, but the lady scares me a bit. :(

First of all… don’t go before 10:30a, I was hungry and eating sunflower seeds all morning wasn’t cutting it so i held out until 10:30 and decided I better eat some real food.
One of my friends at work said let’s go eat… and I said let’s go! They suggested Flame Broiler and I’ve always wanted to try it so off we went. I had the ½ beef and ½ chicken plus medium drink for $ 6.46 (or something like that). If you wanted to exchange brown rice for white rice you could, just have to pay $ 1 extra (which is worth it for eating healthy)
The bowl was enough food to fill me up, but if I’m ever starving, I’d go for one of the plates. The best thing I like about this place is they ask you if you want onions (they don’t just put them off and expect you to take them off) and they don’t put the sauce on for you, they have a dispenser of their Magic sauce and you can put on as much or as little as you want. How great is that… you don’t have to ask for sauce on the side!
5 stars… the place was clean, plenty of parking (maybe cuz I went at 10:30) hahah and prices are decent.
