    The second flame broiler I have been to. The food is simple and decently healthy. Just meat, rice, and veggies. The flavor is good and does not leave you feeling bloated. The staff are very friendly but the food comes out slowly. Seems like they are not sustainable, only 2 people working and not that busy. The interior is large and clean.

    Meal with very little protein. Ridiculous

    Disappointing experience. The food tasted fine, but the portion size was way too small for the price. I left still hungry, which shouldn't happen after a full meal. Definitely not worth it unless they improve the portions.

    Barely any chicken

    This place always short out on the meat. So I go the one on Milton pkwy. That owner have always been very nice and gave good portion but unfortunately they closed. Not I'm back to this location to try again. They still short out on the portion. The meat not even touching the lid. The lady never have a smile on her coughing everywhere. Won't come to this one ever again

    Food

    Food was really good but most importantly the costumer service was the best. Got my food in 2 mins after I ordered. Highly recommend this spot. I've been here almost everyday on my lunch since I work at Big O Tires nearby. The worker Sid that's been taking care of me since I started going here is the very professional and will take care of you. He's one of the main reason I got here.

    A big ball of rice stuck together

    I've been to a lot of flame broilers and this is probably the worst that I've been to. The cashier is always super unfriendly. No "hi how are you" or "thank you enjoy your meal". Just zero dialogue, which unfortunately I've also noticed at other fast restaurants in Irvine. I've encountered two different cashiers and they have both been like this. The interior of the establishment is also fairly uninviting. Although I suppose I'm not there to hang out. There were a few fruit flies at the sauce area and hovering around the sauce nozzles. Last, the food isn't very hot and always feels like it's been sitting there for a while. Also, my rice was completely stuck together in a large ball. That's pretty off putting.

    For the record, I give this place a solid 2.5 stars. I normally don't give 2.5 stars even for fast food establishments but this really did not meet my expectations. I went in expecting a nice hefty bowl of rice and chicken but came out with a portion size I was not satisfied with. For 10 dollars, I would expect a lot more. Also, the chicken here was relatively dry and didn't have much fatty parts (could be a good thing and bad thing, depends how you look at it). Also wish there were more vegetables. A 1:1 ratio of rice to vegetables with the chicken they provide would honestly keep me satisfied and happy. Overall, I think if you wanted to eat healthy, I would rather go to Chipotle where you can get quality chicken with lots of vegetables.

    The flame broiler's advertising makes it seem like it's all about healthy food that tastes good, but I'm not convinced. The portion of chicken was pretty small. I do normally have a pretty big appetite, but I'd still definitely consider this portion small. The chicken was dry, but there wasn't any fatty meat or skin. So I guess not super great tasting meat but healthier than most other fast food places. The teriyaki sauce was good, but it was a bit overdone and got a lot of the rice underneath soaked in sauce. I'm not sure how healthy it is to be drenching rice in teriyaki sauce. There were no vegetables included in the bowl even though there are veggies in the picture provided for online ordering. Not a super balanced meal, just chicken and rice. Pretty mediocre in my opinion, and not really worth $8.

    This guy so nice.

    This location is awesome! Friendly hard working staff. They always get my order right. The location is also always clean, during the work week it does get popular during the lunch rush. No complaints here.

    Honestly I didn't have high expectations due to the low reviews but I was pretty surprised at the…read morefood I got. Popcorn chicken- so this is definitely not the popcorn chicken I'm used to. They use a wet batter to coat the chicken instead of the potato starch so it doesn't have the outer panko-like texture. It also doesn't have any five spice taste. Despite this, the chicken was very moist and delicious. Paired with their spicy sauce, it was actually quite addicting. Fried oyster mushrooms - delicious, juicy and crispy. I'd get this again. Fries - this one is a pass for me. It's crispy on the outside and mash potato textured on the inside. Not too greasy but nothing too special for me. Orange chicken sandwich - this wasn't what I expected at all. The orange chicken sauce is very watery and I could barely taste the sauce at all. It just tasted like a slightly sweet chicken sandwich. The chicken was juicy and the slaw they added had a good crunch to it. Overall it's enjoyable but I'd probably get the regular chicken sandwich instead. There's two kiosks for ordering and items were made to order.

Easy to use although I did have to ask the worder how to apply the BOGO special and she said they just make you two when you order one! We got the BOGO fish cakes, the popcorn chicken and a box of regular chicken. I wasn't a fan of any of it. The coating was too sweet for my taste. Chicken was nothing great and the sauces we got tasted like something from a fast food place. The portion was pretty good though, esp for the free box of fish cakes and the popcorn chicken. My guy really enjoyed it though so giving 4 stars due to his happiness with it!

I ordered a 3-Item Plate, and it honestly looked smaller than what a 1-Item Plate used to be. The portion sizes across the board were extremely disappointing. The Orange Chicken was mushy and soft instead of crispy and fresh. The Beef & Broccoli contained only three small pieces of beef with mostly broccoli. I also paid the additional $1.95 upgrade for the Cantonese BBQ Brisket, and the portion was so small it was hard to believe. To make matters worse, the brisket was dry and lacked flavor. Even the rice portion was noticeably smaller than what Panda Express used to serve. I understand that food costs have increased and prices have gone up, but charging more while serving a fraction of the food customers used to receive is not acceptable. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling ripped off. There are plenty of restaurants offering better quality food, larger portions, and enough leftovers for a second meal. If Panda Express continues reducing portions while raising prices, they're going to lose loyal customers like me. Very disappointing experience.

Lizzie guided us through the menu and highly recommended the Blackened Chicken Pasta, which was delicious. For our side, we ordered the sweet potato fries with cinnamon seasoning. When they both checked in on us, we mentioned we were a bit surprised that the cinnamon seasoning contained sugar. Because we are pre-diabetic, Lisa immediately stepped in with a solution. She recommended switching to the plain sweet potato fries instead and made a whole new batch for us right away. Her quick thinking and care meant the world to us! The high-quality service didn't stop there. Lizzie thoughtfully asked if I wanted a strawberry lemonade refill to go, which made an already great night even happier. Everything we ate was absolutely delicious. Beyond the food, the ambiance was perfect. They were playing a playlist of 60s and 70s oldies and disco music that completely transported me, bringing back the wonderful feeling of being a young kid again. Thank you, Lizzie and Lisa, for making this birthday dinner so memorable. We will definitely be back!

I also enjoyed my Southern salmon as it had a nice sweet tangy sauce. This time around I tried one of their cocktails, a strawberry spritz. It was refreshing but the glass was sadly small.
