Magic Rewards
Derek W.

I've recently been trying to eat healthier in an effort to better my health numbers after I noticed they had exacerbated this past year. I knew about Flame Broiler, a dime a dozen shop, but I had forgotten they specialized in healthy bowls that are also good for your soul. Thanks to Fivestars, which I found this location while scrolling around on the app, I may have found my new spot for eats that are healthier than burgers and fries. This Flame Broiler is located in Long Beach by the traffic circle next to Cyclebar. I mention this because inside the restaurant, there's actually a stationary bicycle from Cyclebar. Why they did this, I'm not too sure, but I think it's appropriate to have those two businesses adjacent to one another so that way, after a tough workout or a cycling class, you can treat yourself to some healthy eats that don't taste too bad! I was planning to hit up several places that day, so I only got a Mini Chicken Bowl on this visit. The chicken is NAE, which stands for No Antibiotics Ever. They also offer beef and tofu, or you can get the best of two different worlds. I don't like tofu, and I'm trying to avoid red meat, hence my choice for chicken. The cashier then asked if I wanted white or brown rice. Since brown rice is a lot healthier, that's what I went with. He also recited the list of vegetables that would accompany the chicken and rice, and I agreed to have it all on there. The vegetables are blanched, which generally retains more of the nutrients that my body most definitely needs! It took about 2 to 3 minutes before they were done with my bowl. Quite fast! I'll have to try a regular size bowl to see how much longer they'd need to prepare it. The cashier asked if I'd like teriyaki sauce or hot sauce. I wasn't expecting hot sauce to be an option, and I wasn't sure how hot their hot sauce was, so I simply went with teriyaki. He gave me two cups of that, though I only used one and saved the other one for later. He also included a fork in my small takeout bag. There is plenty of seating inside, even with the presence of the Cyclebar stationary bicycle. I sat at a table and enjoyed every bite of that mini bowl! However, I do believe it would have been tough to eat without any sauce as everything in the bowl, including the chicken, was quite dry. I would also say that one cup of teriyaki sauce might not be enough to satisfy your taste buds, so if you do get a regular bowl, try to ask for a second sauce. The walls are adorned with posters that analyze the ingredients in their bowls: The beef is USDA Choice Angus Beef. The chicken is USDA All-Natural Chicken sans skin. The tofu is organic, extra firm and non-GMO. The proteins are charbroiled. The rice is U.S. extra fancy Calrose medium grain rice grown in NorCal. The vegetables are blanched. Wait, didn't I already say this? I can definitely appreciate how they are being transparent in their ingredients so that we, the customers, know exactly what we are paying for. If you'd like, you can also add green onions on top at no extra charge! At the front window, there's also a poster that advertises their rewards program called Magic Rewards, which is different from Fivestars. From looking at their website https://flamebroilerusa.com/, points can't be earned on in-person purchases. Instead, you can only earn points online, which is contrary to Fivestars, which rewards you a point for every order you make in store. It might be a little confusing having two separate rewards programs for the same eatery, but I think as long as you know that one program rewards online orders while the other rewards in-person orders, you should not get them confused. If Magic Rewards starts awarding points on in-person orders, I wouldn't know if you'd be allowed to double-dip. It's definitely something that will be on my radar, however, in the near future. Overall, I enjoyed my mini chicken bowl, and I look forward to visiting Flame Broiler more often whenever I'm in need of something healthy and don't want to cook at home lol.

Regular NAE Korean Spicy Chicken Bowl
Bryan T.

Came here specifically for the Korean spicy chicken and it was not good. Better to order regular chicken.

Once upon a time, this Faerie Queen needed a quick weekday meal. We were greeted upon entry and the person manning the front desk was kind and helpful. The food is simple, rice bowls with your choice of proteins (including tofu), veggies, and sauce. Just what was needed for a healthy version of fast food. The end.

Chicken bowl no sauce with veggies no carrot
Delanie W.

Employees were friendly, made my order perfectly with no sauce or carrots. A minimal wait time.

Dark,  black avocado
Patty M.

Make sure you check your orders before leaving the store. Ordered 2 sides of Avocado with the 2 mini bowls. This is what the avocado looked like when I got to where I was going to eat a few minutes after picking up the order.

Half and half w/ green onions and brown rice
Steven N.

This place has good food and what you'd expect from a chain semi-fast food joint. The place is in a plaza and area where there are a lot of food options, so competition is stiff. The food is not too bad, chicken and beef are good. I personally think the rice is too dry. The workers are nice and I've never had a problem with them. I also like that this is one of the few places that offers a loyalty program for its customers. Honestly, this is one of those places that you can stop by for quick bite of healthy food. But with so many good options in the area, it probably would not be a go-to spot for many.

Chicken bowl white meat
Daniela C.

This flame broiler was very disappointing. I ordered a regular bowl with broccoli and white meat and they gave me very little white meat, definitely not worth the extra $1.50 upgrade charge. Seems like they were being very stingy with the chicken. The first picture is of what they gave me and the second picture is the same exact order from a different location.... You can see the amount of chicken given is very different

My regular bowl half and half you can tell they put effort to retain costumers coming back forsure

Additional thoughts - the ingredients was a step above standard fair that I have had at many other restaurants. It made the food just that much more enjoyable. I can see why they have the Michilin ratings.

Our waiter Karn stayed friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time, which honestly made the experience even better. We ordered the Thai Iced Tea, Calamari S&P, Crab Rangoon, Seafood Medley (medium spice), Orange Chicken, Pad See Ew with chicken, and Spicy Fried Rice with chicken (medium spice). Every dish came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The Calamari S&P was crispy and seasoned perfectly, the Crab Rangoon had a great crunch with a creamy filling, and the Seafood Medley was packed with seafood and had just the right level of spice and leftover sauce for the white rice on the side. The Orange Chicken was crispy with a flavorful sauce, the Pad See Ew was rich, and the Spicy Fried Rice had amazing flavor with a nice kick. The food, atmosphere, and especially the service made this such a great experience. You can tell the team works hard to keep everything running smoothly even during a rush. Definitely looking forward to coming back!

Every dish we've tried has been full of flavor and genuinely worth ordering. Surprisingly, compared to other Thai spots, it's usually not overly packed and honestly I'm almost scared to say that because I don't want it to change. The service has always been great, the food comes out quickly, and the portions/prices feel reasonable. So far, our favorites have been the pad see ew, tom yum soup (medium spice), egg fried rice, fried calamari and the beef BBQ which was so good we immediately ordered a second plate. The mango sticky rice is also really good, but the portion is on the smaller side, so we ended up getting two orders since one plate is hard to share with more than 2-3 people. Parking has been easy for us so far since there's both a parking lot and nearby street parking. Definitely one of our favorite restaurants that's officially in our regular rotation.

On a Wednesday night we were able to walk in and had no trouble getting a table for 4. The aesthetic is the standout feature of the place. The main bar is beautifully decorated and there are spacious booths to eat at as well. My favorite part was the two additional "secret" bar areas! While sitting in the main bar area you would have no idea there are additional rooms. Exploring the other rooms was a fun, unique part of the visit. The drinks were photo worthy as well as tasted great. The bar tender was attentive and adjusted my drink based on how much sweetness I like. The lychee margarita was my favorite because they light it up table side for a fun presentation! The food tasted great and was very affordable priced! Our group ordered multiple items and shared them family style, which seems to be a common approach here. The shrimp fried rice was delicious and my favorite food item. One order was plenty to share between 4 people. Per our server's request, we also tried the cucumber salad which was really refreshing and a great side. I tried the popcorn chicken but honestly they packed a kick and were too spicy for me, so be warned. In sum, the service, food, drinks, and ambiance were great and I will definitely be back!

It's a really small location so it's a little bizarre that service is a bit on the slow side. That said, everything else was fantastic so it's a small sin as such things go. Overwhelmingly recommend this place, just maybe order a lot up-front so you don't end up waiting around for more. It also has 2 speakeasys attached to the "main" restaraunt, but book early as those spots are even harder to get into.

The portions are huge and perfect for sharing family-style, especially with larger groups. They've always handled big parties well, though I'd definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time since they can get busy. The ambiance is probably the one area that could use some improvement, but the food and portions more than make up for it.
