Tasty food, their menu has been the same for many years and I am here for it, but portions are getting smaller and smaller, i remember when they used to serve the two item plate with a complementary miso soup. Prices are reasonable but they don’t have the dine in service they used to like not offering their dine in food in a foam plate and plastic disposable cups for water.

Musubis are good and teriyaki is a hit but their poke bowls are not it. Too salty! But everything else is pretty good. Been going here for a while now service is great but sometimes I’d go and they’re closed. Idk but still worth a try if you’re looking for something to eat, probably just not the poke. But maybe it’s just the preparer.

Our family has eaten here since the early 2000s and this was one of our go-to locations for cheap and delicious food. We haven’t been here since 2019 but it seems like the taste/texture has dropped 🙁
Food/Taste/Flavor: 3/5 – we ordered 2 combo plate and a sushi roll. The pork and chicken katsu were pretty dry and the sauce was fairly salty. The vegetable tempura surprised me since it’s much more American ingredients than Japanese and included items such as carrots and green bean (imagine my shock and disappointment when I bit what I thought was a sweet potato…. but it was a carrot?!?! T_T). Recommendation to ask if you can get the sauce on the side for chicken teriyaki since it’s a bit sweet. The chicken karaage (fried chicken) was delicious and juicy when we first opened the box but became hard fairly quick as the food cooled. The salmon avocado roll was really good with lots of salmon! The South Bay Firecracker Roll had a nice kick but we probably wouldn’t get again since it really is just spicy tuna on a California roll with some spiciness on top. There’s not much alvocado in the either of the rolls and they were a bit wonky. Wasabi doesn’t have any kick.
Ambience: 3/5 – took the food to go. The restaurant only has 3-4 tables to eat at and one of the walls was just stacked with boxes. Looks like some remodel or design has changed in the past few years
Service: 5/5 – cashier was extremely friendly and let us take our time to make our order. Her quoted time of about 15 min was on point!
Value for price: 4/5 – this place has increased in prices but it’s still very reasonable and one of the cheaper locations. Unfortunately, the quality/taste/texture has dropped

Great little place, guys there are friendly and welcoming, wings were delicious, rolls also were good just wish portions were a tad bit bigger my only suggestion the rolls with the jalapeno is if the jalapeno were slightly roasted just to soften then up then put on top of the roll that would be a game changer but over all place is a “repeat ” for us.

Great value for great food! We ordered a 2 and 3 combo meal with 2 karaage, 2 rolls, and vegetable tempura and we had plenty of leftovers with just 2 ppl eating! I recommend their karaage, sesame chicken, and the Philly roll! The owners are very friendly and we thought the food was delicious! I used to go here as a kid, 20 years ago, so I’m glad to see Rice Things is still around <3

Service was great and quick. Food was hot and tasty. Especially the teriyaki beef and potato salad. It was fresh. Not that fake stuff. Cost of food is reasonable too.

Amazing Japanese food for fair prices. The quality and portions are worth every penny. And it’s so good I’d carry bags of pennies to pay every time if I had to.

Came here for my first time for takeout lunch. Ordered three combos for me, my cousin and my niece.
My combo included a California roll, chicken teriyaki, and veggie tempura.
Everything was good and they give you a lot of food. Service was friendly.
Would I come back? Maybe. Not the best Japanese food that I have had. But also, not the worst.

Update:
When George owned rice things it was different. Just like when Sandy owned Rods .. it was different.. The boulevard has changed. Like so many of the Old trusted on Artesia, Merchants have sold out to substandard operations and owners… THIS IS ONE OF THEM.
Be prepared for a substandard menu disguised as the old menu, and an extreme millennial staff were customer service is offered in Smiles NOT service. Smiles and excuses for slow kitchen staff is not cool. Waited 50 MINUTES for a simple 2 item combo!! This restaurant is so worried about Uber eats and grubhub order cancellations that any walk up orders are considered secondary…
This is a horrible restaurant principle.
You’re better off going somewhere else in this neighborhood… Or stay at home and order Via online services because this restaurant is not appreciative of your local business… sad right
Enjoy Redondo….
There are so many wonderful things about Rice Things! For many years they’ve been exceptional in customer service, food quality and most importantly COST!!!
You can’t get a better deal!
Great sushi, great chicken, great beef!
Super clean environment and the outside patio is perfect for relaxing while enjoying a great meal.
Located conveniently in the “date-night Center” of North Redondo.
