August 23 · Felicia RoseThank you Yelp, for inviting me to the Elite Experience & Bowl Bonanza at Ricemill! This cute little downtown eatery is serving delicious hand crafted and build-your-own Asian bowls. They use fresh ingredients and homemade sauces offering shrimp, chicken and pork for proteins. You can have it over rice , noodles, or fresh greens and they have plenty of gluten-free and vegan options as well. The staff was friendly and welcoming offering to assist if needed I chose to build my own bowl with steak and shrimp over noodles in the caramelized scallion sauce topped with sweet and sour eggplant, zucchini, anoki mushrooms, edamame, purple cabbage and sesame seeds. It was delicious and good for me too! You have to try their different flavors of rice pudding and homemade strawberry and watermelon lemonade. Thanks again Bailey for inviting me an please support our local businesses.
April 20 · Victor MannThe grand opening was an amazing experience. Located in at the heart of Phoenix, Texas, Ricemill has decided to bring an unique Asian fusion to the fast casual dining scene. The style of service is efficient and especially for those who wanted to grab a quick bite. I especially enjoyed the Szechuan Mala Steak bowl, taking that all too-well-familiar aromatic Szechuan heat and incorporating it into a variety of fresh greens.The service is great and the staff members are respectful. The store embroidered an aesthetic palette of orange and beige, adding onto the great food with a warm and inviting environment. The portion is especially fitting with the price, you can be guaranteed that you are getting more than what you are paying for. I very much enjoyed my experience here and would come again! Thank you Ricemill!
March 22 · Ming Rui Yang (༺Mingymars༻)The famous fruit sandwiches are premade fresh every day. They were only an hour open when we arrived and only had 5 left, strawberry and green grape. So they indeed sell out fast. And was heavenly ti eat. It was gone too fast. Google maps was crazy getting us here. It took us to Washing street, we wandered to elevators. Found a lobby, got directions to go back down the stairs. Google should have taken us right there but actually you should walk to 2nd street side of the block and, halfway between Washington&Jefferson you'll find Rice Mill. We found metered parking the next street south of Jeffersin for $1.50 an hour with a 4 hr time limit.
June 13 · Eileen L. SmithFood is delicious! Portion size is great, sauces are a great taste and combination. Staff is friendly and helpful. Loved the build your own bowl ❤️ Their soon to come desserts will be delicious! Definitely come back soon 😊
