“We ordered delivery and we loved our bowls! One of us ordered steak bulgogi and white rice. One of us ordered fried chicken katsu with fried rice and garlic aioli. The pork and vegetable fried dumplings were great but we liked the vegetable the best because they were packed with flavor and variety. The flavors had so much depth and we also loved the side salad. It was the perfect amount.”
“I love this place. Food is amazing and the employees are so sweet!”
“I ordered through UberEats and everything was amazing and they left me a sweet note.”
“They are so amazing look at the kind note not only is the food top tier but so are their hearts”
“Delivery was early, my food was warm and delicious BUT the delivery was everything! The driver “handed” me my food in my hands with a very warm smile, told me to enjoy and when I opened my bag…any obstacle that I faced to this point just went away…🥹 thank you for the little things, for taking the time to share such a special note and drawing…it really brought me to a center in my city. #i❤️chicago 🚊☔️🍚🍣”
“Great place to dine right at the place. Great taste and variety.”
“First time coming to Rice n'bowl! Saw their ad on Instagram! Amazing! Worth the hype. We had the salmon and garlic butter fried rice 🍚. It was really delicious & filling! Even the salad 🥗 & dressing was soo good. Also had the bao-nut! Yum! Perfect way to end a meal. Definitely recommend it! 😁”
“Saw this place on UberEats today and decided to try it out - when my order arrived, the very first thing I pulled out of the bag was this lovely handwritten note. What a great first impression! There's no way they could have possibly known this, but Baymax is one of my favorite characters...ever? It really boosted my mood and I genuinely want to thank whoever wrote that note and drew that tiny Baymax because it made my day :`) For my food, I got a small crispy orange chicken, crab rangoon, and bao nuts. Everything was fresh and delicious, and the portion size was perfect to leave me satisfied. I don't know exactly how to explain it, but this meal was genuinely comforting to eat. The note added such a cozy, homey vibe - it made the whole meal felt like a warm hug from a friend. Simple but delicious. My first time ordering, but definitely not my last!”
“I ordered off UberEats and was pleasantly surprised by the lil wholesome note the staff hand wrote. Food was delicious, and I can't wait to try them in person at their location when I'm able. To the staff who decided on sending the note, thank you 🫂and I hope you get a raise.”
“My very first time ordering from Bowls of Rice, and I’m so glad I did. I got the grilled salmon bowl with garlic butter fried rice and aioli sauce—and let me tell you, that bowl was delectable. Flavorful, well-balanced, and satisfying from the first bite to the last. What made it even better was the cute little note that came with my order—a thoughtful, feel-good touch that instantly set the tone. Thank you for the food and the care. Peace and love to the team—may you continue blessing taste buds everywhere. I shall be back.☝🏽”
“I can’t stop raving about this eatery. I still haven’t been to the actual location just been ordering through Food delivery, but their food is delish, The steak is always cooked perfect to my liking and the customer service is unmatched ! 😍 Order the steak bowl and shrimp bowl with chicken potstickers. The steak bowl upgrade was A pleasant surprise as well as the Nutella Rangoon! As well their little notes of joy included in every order I’ve made just brings my appreciation full circle!”
