This place has become incredibly hit or miss. You can order a menu item three time and get three completely different dishes when you pick up. I just ordered what was my favorite and got noodles in grey dish water. Not the first time this has happened. This used to be a fantastic neighborhood gem and it’s really slipped into a must-miss.

I recently dined at Rice, a Thai restaurant in DC, and it was a delightful experience. The papaya salad with shrimp was perfectly spicy, and the chicken cashew dish, though excellent, could be even better with the addition of pineapple. While the service was nothing out of the ordinary, the food made up for it. I’d definitely recommend Rice and look forward to revisiting on my next trip to DC.

Went alone and sat at the bar. Great vibes: music was at a perfect volume, lighting created a great environment and staff were nice and helpful.
Food was tasty and came out quick. Perfect for a quick bite (lunch or dinner), a first date or even a nice meal to catch up with friends.

Delicious Thai food in the Logan Circle area. They also have an Asian grocery store downstairs with a good selection of ingredients, sauces, wines, and dinnerware.

We were walking in the area, and decided on trying out their food here. While there was a bit of a linguistic barrier, we were able to convey our dietary restrictions, and ordered the Basil Stir fry.

It was generous in portion, and tasted really good. We opted to sit outside, which was ideal given the weather that day.

All in all, a nice dining experience.

Great Thai food. It was really yummy and the staff was super nice and helpful. We had Happy Hour sushi for each $6 (spicy tuna roll and California roll). It was made freshly downstairs at the rice market. Cute little shop with Asian specialties. As entrees we ate chicken drunken noodles and spicy duck. Both were delicious. Probably one of the best drunken noodles I’ve ever had. Soooo good!!! Go support a local restaurant!

Best Asian cuisine! Shrimp wonton soup def authentic Cantonese style! Best I’ve in USA! Big portions on the entrees. Wish have time to come back try every one!

I’ve lived in the neighborhood for almost 20 years and Rice has been one of the best parts of living here. I was pretty upset when their sister restaurant DC Noodle closed, which was only one block from where I live. Tonight I ventured a few extra blocks and was reminded of how much I love Rice, too.

It’s delicious, the place is very cool, and now there’s a fantastic Asian market in the basement where I can stock up on things I can’t buy at regular markets in the area. The staff has always been professional and friendly to me. Tonight I had red curry and the fried snapper filet. The fish was a little over cooked but the sauce is so good! The red curry is reliable. The green tea margarita was tasty too.
