I enjoyed a very good one half pound burger from Fat Burger located inside Hurricane Wings. The…read moreburger is known as the "Kingburger" and cost $11.49 plus tax, but to add cheese, they charge you another $2.59 plus tax extra. I was not happy about the extra fee. It's just one slice of cheese that averages about .40 each, according to a national average. At any rate, the burger was very good. The half pound patty offered a good quality beef flavor and had very good texture as well. The lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pickles were all fresh and tasty. I had it with no sauce. I was pleased that they toasted the bun well. Well done. It was a very good burger and the service was good, too. The lady who took our order had a good sense of humor and was friendly. There's a lot of seating at this place.

When I called in they told me to email the business and they would send me a refund. I would've been fine with a free drink or something closer to the value since I kept the fries and the roll tacos are more expensive. I emailed and didn't hear back. Today I ordered fries and they never made my order it wasn't until the third time I checked on it that they realized they never made my fries. Which were skimpy to say the least. I don't know if it is because they were rushed but $23 for fries and a bev is wild when they give you half a tacos worth of meat. Probably won't be coming back here.

Not here. It was like a breath of fresh air honestly. Shouldn't have to beg for more toppings on a build-your-own pizza. And on top of that, I just discovered the other day that the draft beers are $5 here too. What? Shhh, don't tell anyone ok? Oh wait... It's in a pretty small space in an ever-changing area, Otay Ranch mall. So many options here at this mall, it seems none of the restaurants or fast casual places are really crowded anymore, which is a good thing. I'll be back for the beer and the pizza in no time at all!

I have to applaud the creativity here. I ordered a pizza that normally comes with ranch on top, but…read moreI asked for the ranch on the side instead. Apparently, moving it from the pizza into a small cup is considered an "extra" and comes with an additional charge. So let me get this straight, I already paid for the ranch that's included with the pizza, but if I don't want it poured on top, I have to pay again? That's a pretty impressive business model. The pizza itself was fine, but policies like this leave a bad taste. Sometimes taking care of the customer over a tiny cup of ranch goes a lot further than squeezing out a few extra dollars. Do better, Blaze Pizza. Common sense and good customer service shouldn't cost extra.

Not only does this place have delicious chicken and meat combined with rice and veggies but also a great vegetarian option too. I have a couple vegan and vegetarian friends who hardly come out to eat with me because not many places have a lot of options for them. I love this place because its let me connect with my friends in the eating out atmosphere again and they love the food as much as i love mine. You walk in and the smell is just sensational all the food is prepared freshed and you can tell the difference, i really like there chicken it has this stone oven taste about it im not sure how to explain but it is amazing and just juicy! read more

Flame Broiler offers a delightful dining experience with flavorful, nutrient-packed meals. The "The Works" plate was a hit - tender grilled chicken, steamed rice, fresh veggies, and a delicious signature sauce. The generous portions left me satisfied and energized. The restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients and sustainability is commendable. Whether you're health-conscious or simply love great food, Flame Broiler is a must-visit. read more

This place is amazing, but today the guy working the counter on Nov 4th at 230pm was the most difficult guy to order from. I believe when you skip on vegetables and cold slaw, I should be able to get a little extra rice. My buddies bowl was only half full, and the guy said it's extra if he wants more. read more

Seared Ahi Tuna Bowl (8.5/10): This bowl had so many layers of flavor and came together really well. The onions added extra depth, and the brown rice paired perfectly with the seared tuna. The sauce was light and did not overpower the dish and it had a teriyaki like taste. It is actually a mix of ponzu and sushi sauce. The kale, radish, and edamame added a great crunch and texture. Portion size was also solid and filling. Service: Very nice and efficient. Ambiance: Clean space but a bit small. A lot of people seem to order takeout so there is a steady flow of grab and go customers coming in and leaving. If you dine in, it still has a pretty chill and casual vibe.

The server was polite, though being a food truck we only interacted for a moment. The truck appears well-lit and clean with an easy-to-read menu. I'm not giving five stars only because of the menu. I looked up their menu online beforehand when I was deciding where to eat, just to find when I got there that only a few of their menu items were in stock. Ok, understandable. But their prices on the truck were so much higher than what they advertise online. The chicken shawarma, for example, is $9 on their website and $14 at the truck. The Falafel wrap is $7 online and $12 at the truck. They essentially gave everything a $5 markup which made me feel like I was being ripped off. Easily fixed if they update the website or honor their advertised prices.
