“ Excellent Thai food in tired busy setting. Service is good but paper napkins on a Saturday night are disappointing. ”
“ Rice is one of our favorite go-to places. They have a diverse menu with something for everyone, including the picky eaters in our family. Everything I have ever ordered has been great, and the service is consistently good. The fried green beans are a must-try! I was skeptical at first, but now I can't go there without ordering them! They also have a stellar drink menu and a very nice covered outdoor seating area to enjoy in nice weather. ”
“ First time here for us since we moved to Treasure Valley in June. We came on a Saturday just after noon and there were only a few other customers. We were told to seat ourselves. We sat at a table with nice antiquish chairs near the sushi bar. Brandon was our server and he did a really great job taking care of us. Very nice, professional, and attentive. We both ordered the miso soup and chicken Pad Thai at a 2 spice on a scale of 5. It was delicious, the right kick but still able to enjoy all the flavors. The sweet and sour taste was really yummy. We live in Star and it has an Asian restaurant that we aren't impressed with. We will certainly be back. ”
“ Have eaten here a few times. The service has always been fast and efficient. They can get pretty busy and putting in a reservation is a good idea. Large portions and expect to take some home. They even have containers for soup. It's not too loud and easy to talk across the table. ”
“ Our favorite Asian restaurant in Eagle! Susie gets the asian chicken lettuce wraps and I always get the Thai basil noodles with shrimp - outstanding! ”
“ I've never dined inside here, I just got takeout but the food is pretty great based on my takeout experience! I got a lunch portion of the general's chicken with brown rice and a very delicious tempura shrimp roll that had cucumber, cream cheese, avocado, jalapeño, Sriracha and honey lemon sauces with adorable little slices of lemon.. yummy! I highly recommend getting that roll if you like shrimp and sweet, spicy and citrus-y flavors. I feel lucky to have this place located in the same plaza my workplace is located and I will definitely stop here when I'm in the mood for Asian cuisine from now on. ”
“ The ambiance is great! Always clean, welcoming and warm! The food never disappoints, price is right in the perfect price point for what you are getting. They have a kids menu which is amazing! The drink menu is good. The outdoor patio is nice for spring and summer. Take out works fabulous for a busy night. The curry is delicious! Two people can normally share an appetizer and one meal. ”
“ Food is ok. A wide ranging menu. Service is good.A good place for lunch or a casual dinner. Rice has just about any type of Asian food: Japanese, Chinese, Indian, Thai, and probably a few others. A huge menu. Not really my preference, but it does mean that everybody will find something to eat. I think that the food is getting better over time. Still not great, but the noodles are pretty good. Even some of the curries are good. Haven't tried having spicy food or sushi, and that might drop the score... Desserts can be pretty good, but have also gotten not-quite-ripe mango. Happy hour martinis are a great deal! ”
