Mini Chicken Bowl
Zarifa A.

Flame Broiler is a great choice for a quick, affordable, healthier meal. During my last visit, I got a mini chicken bowl with brown rice, veggies, and avocado. I enjoyed it and the portion size was perfect for me. If you want more flavor, you can ask for extra sauce on the side but I actually enjoyed the lightness of it as is. They do have a spicy sauce though (I forgot the name), but I highly recommend getting that if you enjoy spicy foods! It has a decent kick to it and it made me bowl taste even better. This location is located in a pretty large plaza, so finding parking was not an issue when I went. It's a fast food place, so everything is pretty casual which is to be expected. Service here is friendly.

Menu + Staff
Yap Y.

The food here is mediocre at best for a quick bite. As someone with a couple years of customer service experience, however, there is one particular staff, Mariam C. , who is unreasonably unaccommodating when taking order. I had asked for a mini bowl with veggies and rice explicitly, and when receiving said bowl without vegetables, had asked to just get the veggies with my bowl. However, instead of being accommodating to a small mistake, she instead retorted that she'd have to charge $5 for a side of veggies ( the bowl itself is $8 ). I understand policy, but holding your ground over simple vegetables reads a little excessive and lead to me having an overall dissatisfied experience. But hey if you'd like to be gaslit on a fine Tuesday, Mariam is your gal! ***side note: especially when she's working, the portion control on the rice and meat is inconsistent, making me question the macros as well.

Located close to the Great Park, which makes lunch easy after sport events. Great chicken bowls and even greater customer service by Keila

Upon ordering, she recommended the Jjampong, which I was a bit hesitant about since it's very easy to get wrong unless you specialize in Chinese/Korean food. But boy, was I wrong! One of the best I've had. Now, starting with the Soon Dae, this might be the first location, besides Garden Grove, that specializes in Soondae and actually gets it right. Yoo's Place got it perfect! The spicy cold noodles were chewy and had the perfect amount of spice. I loved the sweetness that balanced everything out perfectly. The finale was the Galbi Jjim. The meat was the most tender, and the sauce was absolutely perfection. I added cheese, which melted perfectly, but it was a bit much for me in terms of the volume of cheese. Still, it was top-tier. This place should be sitting at 5 stars. It was one of the most pleasant surprises, and so far, the best I've had in Irvine.

The owners are incredibly personable with their guests and although it can be busy you can tell they really care about the quality food they provide. The restaurant is nicely spread out and there's plenty of seating even when it's busy. And even busy it's well worth the wait. (You can avoid the crowds if you time yourself right though!) Please support this business!! You won't be disappointed!

If you're going with a few people, the Braised Spicy Premium Beef Ribs with the flat glass noodles is definitely the move. The portion easily feeds two to three. The meat is super tender and just falls off the bone, covered in a rich, spicy sauce that has a nice kick to it. The flat glass noodles soak up all that sauce, and the chunks of kabocha squash add a slight sweetness that balances out the spicy, heavy beef. Service is super fast. You get your banchan pretty much the second you sit down, and the food comes out steaming hot without a long delay. If you're looking for a quick group lunch spot where you can split something huge and spicy, it's definitely worth coming here.

My friend also let me try the beef bone soup that came on the side, and I had the same impression. After the meal, I felt sick and nauseous from its artificial tastes. The condiments and everything we ordered were also extremely sweet, which overwhelmed the flavors and was disappointing for Korean food. Overall, the food simply did not taste authentic or made with the quality of ingredients I expected. I really dislike leaving negative reviews because I genuinely want to support local restaurants. However, based on what we were served, I cannot recommend this place. The restaurant presents itself as an authentic seolleongtang restaurant, and one entire wall is covered with large advertisements emphasizing its authenticity. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to those claims. I was also confused by the restaurant's name, YiGah, because it sounds essentially the same in Korean as the well-known LeeGa name in Los Angeles. That initially gave me a different expectation of the restaurant. Unfortunately, the food was simply terrible during our visit. I hope they will improve the quality, especially the broth and seasonings.
