Ohh Im so happy i found this place!! My friends and I always have lunch around this plaza and we tried this place the first time today. Such affordable price for amazing volume if food! Im usually still hungry at most of lunch place but this place’s regular bowl made me full. And they are relativeley healthy. Meat and veggies, brown rice etc. Tofu option is great. Love the selections of sauces. Staffs are friendly and cheerful. We will roundup our friends and come back here again for sure !!!

I love flame broiler and come here often because it’s a healthy option near my job. But I’m giving 1 star because I don’t understand why they advertise wings and never have them defrosted. I would get these EVERY TIME I order, but always get answer that it would take 15-20 minutes to get the wings defrosted. Why why why do you not have them cooked!? Why are they on your menu or on the advertised stand out front as a new menu option of you obviously don’t want to sell them. I’ve never even been able to try them once because I’m not going to wait the 20 minutes of my 30 minute lunch break for them to be defrosted.

Placed an online order for 12:15pm. When I arrived at 12:22pm the order ticket was still sitting at the register. They made it about 5 minutes after I arrived, which I don’t mind waiting. The problem I had is with the food. I had a mini beef bowl and the beef was tough and chewy. I didn’t even finish my bowl. I think they changed their meat distributor, this beef now is like a thin shaved beef. The staff seemed really disorganized. There was grayish looking chicken sitting on the grill that looked questionable… overall not impressed, go down the street to Surf Brothers.

Out of pricipal I have to warn people. They are charging well above posted prices. Add 20-21% to whatever they advertise on the menu. See pics. Was on the road all day so decided to grab a quick Angus beef mini bowl for my dog for $5.60 and and a regular half and half for $7.35. Was charged [before tax] $7.10 and $9.25. If the prices changed that is one thing but you need to tell people, otherwise get up on a ladder and fix it. One star was from my dog…she didn’t notice and 2 because we ate it all. Minus 2 stars for management/ownership.

I really like the food here, but I do wish they had a little more flexible hours… Such as being open on Sunday. I’ve not eaten here more often than actually getting food here just because of hours of operation.

Update: I felt compelled to come back and update my previous review. We’ve given this place another chance, and I’m happy to say that it was worth it. They’ve made great improvements in the areas that were lacking, and the food is good!

Small but nice and clean. Staff is a little hard of hearing and get distracted easily. The part that through us off was weighing out the meals on food scale. Don’t get me wrong I’m not looking for a overflowing amount of food but for $10 a regular bowl I expect a little more. They weren’t even full spoons of protein.

The food is great but haven’t been in awhile because they close too early for us to have dinner. They used to clise at 9:00 , but this 4:00 stuff is ridiculous! We live over on the other side of Vista and made the trek over here to grab it when we wanted and then all of the sudden one day they started clising at 4 and have not returned to regular hours. Beyond disappointing!

Like the food. Little pricey but it’s a healthier option than other fast food options. I gave it 3 stars because of the service. Many times we call our order in. When they tell it will be ready in 20 minutes, it never is. We’ve even given a few extra minutes and they are always just starting it right when we walk in. Then they are never open on Sundays and close early on Saturdays. Google shows they are open until 7pm but I showed up just after 6pm and lights were off.
