    They place has nice fresh food. Prices are decent too and the staff are friendly. Some suggestions to make it a 5 star review: add vegan/ vegetarian protein options, speed up the service just a bit (takes a while even when it's not busy), and improve sauce flavors. I didn't love the sauce on the cauliflower or the Brussel sprouts.

    3.5 STARS I was looking forward to giving Bushfire Kitchen a try especially because they market themselves as serving "high-quality, fresh and locally sourced fruit and vegetables" so we decided to order delivery via UberEats. Unfortunately, for $60 total, the portion size felt pretty small. I'm not sure if it's because we got delivery, or if the portion size would have been different had we ordered in-restaurant). We got the Grilled Chicken Bowl, Salmon Bowl, and a Quinoa and Power Greens Salad. The meat of the Chicken Bowl and Salmon Bowl were a bit too salty for me personally, but overall was decent and I wouldn't mind eating it again. I did enjoy the Butternut Squash of the Salmon Bowl! What was most disappointing was the Salad. The portion size was incredibly small and I was bummed to find it was topped with nothing but canned ingredients - mandarin orange segments you get from a can, canned garbanzo beans and canned beets on top a thin layer of greens, with a light sprinkle of quinoa and avocado slices that also were turning color. I was hoping for ingredients that would be fresh and not from a can so definitely felt let down. I can't speak to the service as we didn't dine in, but in passing by the restaurant multiple times, parking always looked ample and plentiful. I really wanted to like Bushfire Kitchen and am always excited to support and try new businesses in the area, but I'm not sure I'll find myself back anytime soon.

    Surf & Turf Plate (gf)

    The workers were really nice, and there are both indoor and outdoor tables to sit at. You order at the front, then they give you a number and bring the food out to you. It's definitely a healthier style restaurant and I really liked it. Empanadas (beef & chicken): Both were really good, i'd definitely come back for these! Surf and Turf: The sauces that came with it were really good. The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the mixed veggies and brussels sprouts were delicious. The steak was a little tough to chew though. Peri Peri Burger: I wish the peri peri flavor was a bit stronger, but overall it was still a decent burger.

    Bushfire Kitchen just dropped their Japanese spring-inspired menu so you know I had to go try it. The miso salmon crunch bowl was so colorful and has housemade miso glaze on high-protein, flaky salmon, all on a bed of furikake garlic fluffy rice. But let's talk about the Tokyo glaze BBQ chicken sandwich. She's panko-crusted, not deep-fried, juicy, AND comes with cheesy umami parmesan-dusted fries. The Japanese BBQ dipping sauce it came with was to die for. The new miso-glazed broccoli has the same addicting sauce too! Thanks for reading! ^-^

    Thai coconut curry with butternut squash

    This place definitely has home style healthy meals. We discovered it from IG reels and decided to give it a try for dinner. We both got bowls. I opted for a healthier version with veggies as a base and my boyfriend got jasmine rice. Both of us got chicken, me coconut Thai and him teriyaki. Chicken was both juicy and flavorful. I think the real highlight of the meals were the toppings. I got butternut squash and he got balsamic glazed Brussels sprouts. Omg both were so delicious. They also have miso broccoli and Korean cauliflower. We want to try those next time.

    Ordered delivery through DoorDash on a Friday evening. The food arrived fast enough but the to-go box wasn't very secured and the sauce spilled a bit. The food was absolutely delicious in big portions. We had Peri peri chicken with cauliflower and mashed potatoes, Nashville spicy grilled chicken sandwich and lemon cooler cookie. I was surprised at how yummy everything was. They have great gluten free options and they use quality beef and chicken as well! We will definitely order deliveries from here again!

    Cross section of guava cream empanada

    I've been seeing rave reviews for Bushfire so I decided to check them out. Orders are placed at the counter and delivered to your table when they're ready. The staff is professional and efficient but not particularly welcoming. There is ample inside seating which is nicely arranged. There's also a very nice covered patio for outside seating. The food smells amazing as you walk into the restaurant! They offer a nice selection of bowls, salads, sandwiches, and sides. They also have a couple of small cases on the counter loaded with empanadas and desserts. Today I ordered the chicken empanada, their seasonal guava cream empanada, and a side of sweet potato fries. I've been on an empanada binge lately and I was particularly excited to try theirs. The chicken empanada was decent, but nothing really stood out about it. The guava cream one was delicious! I'd definitely get this one again! The sweet potato fries came with a peri peri mayo dipping sauce, which was a nice change from typical sauces. There were a couple of sandwiches that sounded good that I'm looking forward to trying next time.

    New day, new bowl. Today we ate here in person. I ordered the superfood bowl which was delicious! Better than the last bowl I had, and also a very generous portion, it was quite filling and I couldn't even finish it all. I also tried the guava and cheese empanada, very tasty, in fact I shared it with my husband and then regretted it lol because I could've eaten the whole thing! We sat out in the patio which is nice, partially covered and has heaters and fans. Customer service was great, the staff were nice and pleasant to interact with. Overall a great experience.

    BBQ chicken, focaccia, sweet potato fries

    I am new to this place, and my first visit left a lasting impression. The food is fantastic. The choices here not only seem to be healthier, but the food is fresh and high quality. I went with the peri peri chicken, which is a red pepper based sauce, with a lemony taste and a spicy kick over a roasted chicken breast. So good! My wife got the BBQ chicken and it was just a flavorful. A special shout out to their sweet potato fries that were perfectly seasoned with a nice crunch. Other places will have soggy fries but they were amazing here. The other side options are pretty healthy, as I got roasted butternut squash and a home style mac and cheese. Also, my kids loved the burgers. This spot definitely gives higher end restaurant style menu with the convenience of quick walk-in dining. An awesome choice if you are in the Brea area.

    We decided to give this restaurant a try for dinner. Quick and easy order then sit type restaurant. Friendly service. Plenty of beverage options including alcohol. Good 'clean' food, meaning not greasy. Small suggestion, salmon needs salt.

    En Fuego Burger & Roasted Brussels Sprouts
    Sebastian C.

    I've been wondering when they were going to replace Rubio's once they closed for good. Took a while but I was glad that Bushfire Kitchen finally opened up. The restaurants in this strip mall area are all very subpar so I had little to no expectations for this spot. Here's what I have tried: **American Burger: It's a solid traditional burger with bacon. I've had a bite of it cooked medium both times and they have been spot on. (5/5) **En Fuego Burger: I almost always order medium rare for my burgers and that's exactly what I did for both visits. The burger itself is very tasty but disappointed with the spice. I've read several reviews stating that this burger has a nice kick to it but sadly, it doesn't. However, the housemade jalapeño aioli is quite good. I'm generally not a fan of bacon in my burgers but it works well here. (4/5) **Cage-Free Chicken Empanada: Eh, just pass on the empanadas. There isn't much filling and it's definitely not worth the price tag listed. (1/5) **Roasted Brussel Sprouts: I love that you can get a variety of items as a side and not just fries. The brussels sprouts here are delicious and have the perfect balance of flavor. (5/5) I've been here twice during their first few months of being open to test out the waters and I can't wait to be back. The prices are honestly very fair for a casual sit down burger spot with lots of customizable options. The portions are very filling. They have several drink options available including their apple maple refresher, lemonade, iced tea, and Stubborn soda products. As much as I enjoy their food, their overall customer service is quite poor. During my first visit, I could hear the girls working at the front gossiping and not paying attention to the customers. I had gone back to the counter to purchase a fountain drink but I could not get their attention even though they were standing right there. My second time there, when I arrived in line, nobody said a word. When I was leaving the restaurant, I turned around and said thank you but none of the ladies said anything or even made eye contact. You should consider retraining your employees because it doesn't look good from the customer's perspective. I would normally give 3-stars for an experience like this but everything else is good so that's the reason why I'm giving it 4-stars. This spot can easily be bumped up to a 5-star experience if the customer service was spot on.

The arrangement of the tables is pretty sporadic. They could definitely convert the tables into booths with all the space they got, but it seems like they don't get a lot of foot traffic. Parking lot was quite small, but my friends and I had no issues finding a spot. TDLR: Sandwiches aren't worth the price. If you don't care about prices, have at it. I wouldn't come back here purely because our sandwiches took 30+ minutes to come out as dine-in customers. Parking lot is small but found no problem finding a spot.

The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere that truly feels like a neighborhood favorite rather than a chain restaurant, which makes the experience even better. The standout dish for me is the shrimp and scallop pasta with their Italian sauce. The combination of white wine and lemon gives the sauce a light, bright flavor that pairs perfectly with the scallops and shrimp, both of which are always cooked beautifully. One recommendation I'd make is swapping the pasta for angel hair. I think the more delicate texture would complement the sauce even better and help soak up every bit of flavor because trust me, you'll want every last bite. If you're planning to visit Friday through Sunday, I highly recommend making a reservation since wait times can get pretty long. Strong recommendation if you're looking for a stellar local Italian spot with consistently great food and welcoming service.
