A favourite from my college days to current working days, The Flame Broiler is a little take out counter with a simple but delicious menu. When I first visited, the options were beef or chicken, bowls or plates, with or without green onions. Now you can choose vegetarian options, all white meat, short ribs, kids' meals, or a smaller bowl size. My coworkers and I joke that they must put something addicting in their teriyaki because we actually get Flame Broiler cravings. Luckily, their service is usually quite fast, but definitely call ahead if you are in a big hurry, because the line can get ridiculously long at lunchtime.
My usual order there is a chicken bowl with green onions, to which I add extra little containers of teriyaki and hot sauce and a side of jalapenos. My boyfriend usually has the larger beef plate with onions. He also likes the short ribs, but be aware that sometimes they run out of those later in the day.
