When you fan the flames, the hunger will broil
Flame Broiler Cerritos, which opened in January, sent out flyers advertising their Customer Appreciation Weekend on May 21 - 22nd, which had chicken bowls for $5 & $1 drinks. I've been to the Artesia & La Palma locations on a handful of occasions, so having an opportunity for discounted food close to home was something I couldn't pass up.
Ordering goes as follows- Size - mini, regular or plate Base - rice (white or brown), veggies or both Protein - skinless chicken, Angus beef, organic tofu or half & half
I remember food being previously made to order, but now it seems Flame Broiler now pre-cooks their food and stores them in covered warming trays.
Pro - Less time for food Con - Food isn't freshly prepared
Chicken bowl with vegetables, no rice- With a slathering of magic sauce, not to mention the red & green hot sauces, the chicken bowl with veggies proved to be a great weekend lunch. The veggies consisted of cabbage, broccoli & carrots. The chunks of chicken were tender & moist. I would've preferred more to my bowl, but with my request for lots of green onions, I had a meal that was quite pleasing to my palate.
Between the 2 hot sauces, I preferred the green sauce because it had more body to it.
Flame Broiler has several specials posted on the windows, which include-
Tues. Special- 2 chicken bowls $10.99
Weekend Special- $5.69 chicken bowls
Service was good. My order was taken promptly & I had my food in no time. Ample seating, via booths & seats. The Flame Broiler has a spotless interior, which looks like they opened today and not a few months ago.
Parking is in a private lot, with Flame Broiler directly in front of Crunch Fitness. Once Crunch opens, I'm sure Flame Broiler is going enjoy brisk business from health-conscious gym members.
Flame Broiler is a great local option for quick eats by way of their bowls or plates. The chicken was good, and now I'm game to try the Angus beef. With reasonable prices, flavorful food & minimal wait time, I'm sure to frequent this location when I want to get my grub on.

Read moreMy father and I traveled about two miles away from the hotel we were staying in to another Flame broiler on Spring st. in Long Beach. The location was one near the house my parents lived in for 30 years. I looked up their advertised hours and it was scheduled to close at 8:00 PM. No problem I thought, it was 7:30 and less than 15 minutes away. So, when we pulled up and the lights out and chairs stacked on tables with not a single person in sight is what came upon at 7:43, you can imagine our disgust. Were it not for google maps showing one closer to our hotel that was said to be open until 9:00 we would have been sunk and forced to regroup and put together 4 new orders from somewhere else. We made it to this second location and placed our order and paid. Then explained to the worker what had happened, he quickly put our order together apologized for the hassle he had nothing to do with, and threw in 4 free extra sides to offset the sting of the earlier event. That's the way customer service should be handled. We weren't expecting anything or even lodging a complaint, but appreciated the small gesture, it truly...
