Saw this place on social media and gave it a try. There’s a million items to choose from. The food was delicious and super fresh. I ordered the walnut shrimp fried to perfection — they had a light airy crisp to them and just the right sweetness. I also ordered the house fried rice with shrimp. The shrimps in the rice were fresh and deveined and a good size. All rices come with an egg roll. I was not a fan of the egg roll or the sweet and sour sauce, personally didn’t like the taste. I wish they had alcoholic drinks other than just beer and had more variety of teas. I would definitely return.

I have been waiting to try this place since I moved to Houston and I am glad I did. My boss decided to buy us lunch and we picked this restaurant and doordashed it. I am a vegetarian and they had many options.
I picked the curry rice with cauliflower. First of all the portions were great. It was flavorful, spicy and tasted amazing. I also had hot and sour soup which was amazing too. Everything had so much flavor and I can’t wait to try other items. The only thing I would change is maybe cutting up the cauliflower so the pieces are smaller instead of leaving them big and remove the limes. Other than that, it’s my new favorite Chinese spot.

Having eaten at Chinatown a lot lately, I was in the mood for some bad Chinese. Not like bad tasting. But something like Panda Express Americanized level Chinese food. Enter The Rice Box. I had seen their menu many times passing by. And I saw they offer many Americanized dishes. I might have even ordered from here once a long time ago. I can’t remember. But it wasn’t memorable if I had. Sticking with my mission, I decided to order the General Tso chicken. I debated between Lo Mein and Fried Rice as the side. I decided the greasier the better, so I went with noodles. First off I have to say the egg roll was hot and fresh. Kudos for that. Nothing better than a crispy egg roll. Next the chicken. It was ok. Not much flavor though unfortunately. It was kinda like having COVID all over again. There were a lot of tiny crunchy bits too. I think most people wouldn’t like that fact. But I actually like those bits. It’s just like Long John Silvers which throws all those crumbs in at the bottom of your takeaway bag – I love those. And there were a lot of them too. As for the Lo Mein, I couldn’t really eat much of it. I mean, I think it tasted ok for what it was I guess. But I didn’t care for it. Maybe the fried rice would’ve been better. I know my kid would love something like that though, so I decided to take it home. I always like to try the fortune cookie to see if they’re stale. It wasn’t! Portions are solid. servers were prompt. Huge long line. But if moved fast. Very retro in feel. One of the 3 screens had on Empire – so extra star for that. Very cool. Location a bit hard to get to being in the basement of a workplace. I think they cater to the office folks.

Honestly it was not that great. The flavor is unique and not in a good way…lol. the chicken-dry. The broccoli- flavorless. The noodles- over seasoned. Seems they couldn’t find an in between. The quantity is very good but due to the quality I wouldn’t say $14 of my money was worth it. Noodles in the carry out- also not a good idea, very messy.

Have only been here once, but off that one visit have nothing to complain about. Did a quick pick up order of Beef Teriyaki and Orange Chicken and the portion sizes were generous, we were satisfied with both.

Some of the BEST Chinese fast food around! Never been disappointed with anything that I’ve ordered from the s have shrimp fried rice, orange chicken, beef noodles, and the green beans with shrimp! The sweet chili sauce is to die for too! ❤️

Incredible food! I always order either the general Tso’s chicken or orange chicken. You must order the friend rice over the steamed rice, it’s worth it. Great beer selection. The nitro tea is also delicious. Great service, everyone is super friendly and they’ll take good care of you.

The atmosphere was nice! Very small eating area! I would suggest taking the food to go! If you like pics, it’s a spot for nice pics! The food was tasty and they also had sparkling water!! Price of food was reasonable and a hefty serving!! I only went for the experience!!!! Parking is a headache!!

Really cool concept with a fun play on the to-go box that opens into a plate. The flavors were really good. I like that they maintained the approachability of Americanized Chinese but done at a high quality.

Coming from NC, this wasn’t what I was expecting. The atmosphere is definitely a great vibe and the service is top tier! I wasn’t a fan of the food but hey I’ll give them another try.
Now go there &.
