The Rice Box

Super cool place. Super vibey. And great food, pretty massive portion sizes too. They had terminator 2 and aliens playing on the tvs and it really fit the sci-fi aesthetic as well. Love this place. Cool Houston gem.

The atmosphere and service was great. The food was good, but a little pricey. I got the lava bun and it was more dough than the filling. I wish they wouldn't charge you for every single sauce. They do give you soy sauce and this terrible "duck sauce", but I would rather have sweet and sour sauce to go with the egg rolls instead of that "duck sauce". Overall, cool place with great vibes to be at for almost Asian food.

One of the best impromptu dinner decisions we've made in a while. With all the futuristic decor and glowing 5 star reviews, my expectations were high and they absolutely delivered. The food was SO good. We placed an order using their app which is super easy to maneuver. It didn't take long for our order to be ready. We ordered the Sesame Chicken, House Fried Rice (26oz), and wings tossed in sweet and sour sauce. We also added some General Tso and Sweet Chili sauces on the side. Everything was packed with flavor and served in generous portions. It was perfect for two adults with leftovers to take home. RB (The Rice Box) has the vibe of a cool after-hours hangout with great food, a chill ambiance, and a place you'll want to visit again and again. Can't wait to visit again soon.

First Timer- The Ambiance, was very nice and spacious. The staff, was very nice and helpful and the service was pretty quick. The food, I wasn’t impressed. I ordered the rice noodles with shrimp, vegetable eggrolls and the hot & sour soup the noodles in my opinion needed more flavor/seasoning and the soup was luke warm and definitely needed more seasoning. And I was super excited when the cashier said “free refills” my excitement was short lived when I tasted my soda and it was flat, Nooooooo! But, again the staff I encountered was great!

So I ordered from the rice box as I normally do however I order a little before closing through Uber eats as it’s just at the next light. Normally I’m pleased food is normally hot and tasteful. tonight I was not and I’m not sure if it’s because they were closing but if that’s the case just refund the money and don’t make the order I literally paid almost $45 for Yang Chow Fried Rice “Beef & Shrimp” Extra Spicy as well as Lo Mein “beef & Shrimp” extra spicy my Lomein literally tasted like it had absolutely no spice at all just soy or whatever brown sauce they use even the broccoli was bland and shrimp extra extra white they over do the beef which was dry and old looking and put very very little shrimp. like I normally like their food however tonight I wasn’t pleased. The rice came extra spicy but the noodles they could have kept especially paying almost $25 for something that doesn’t have anything but a soy taste with no type of spice at all. Also paid for extra duck sauce and left in the notes as I always do. To please have the cup replaced with the packets as I do not like the cup duck sauce they provide it is absolutely nasty to me. It will go in the trash. They absolutely didn’t follow the instructions for my lo mein and still sent the nasty cup sauce instead of packets. In the past 3 weeks I promise Ive ordered there at least 10 times I have 2 uber eats account so whichever phone I grab is the account I use. I’m so disappointed that because they were closing they didn’t care about the customer enough to prepare the food as listed on the order. Lomein and rice also came barely warm and very dry looking as if it was already sitting there and they added spice to the rice and forgot to add it to the Lomein. Yeah they may not receive my business for quite some time. If yall are at the next light as I’m on memorial Dr @ Sheppard and I have to put my food in the microwave to heat it up. I’ll order else where. I wish this food was as heated as I currently am.
