This is my new favorite Asian takeout place in Milwaukee! Everything was packed with flavor and the portions were huge! We ordered a small chicken with broccoli (still enough for two meals), an order of crab rangoons, a small order of chicken fried rice, and an order of sesame chicken. I thoroughly enjoyed everything! The crab rangoons were filled with lots of cream cheese mixture and the chicken wasn't chewy. We also placed our order for takeout in the store and it was ready in 15 minutes! I will definitely be back! read more

Delicious food, great prices. Excellent service, always a friendly service. My husband is a picky about his Chinese food and he loves it!

This place is sort of a whole in the wall in the middle of a strip mall. It would be very easy to miss if you didn't know about it. I called my order in ahead of time and ordered the most basic thing...a large chicken fried rice. It didn't take long for it to be ready, probably about the time it took me to get there. The service was okay. They were in the middle of something when I walked in so it took a few minutes for the server to ring me out and serve me my food. When I got the food home, it looked like your basic Chinese food. Nothing special. There were peas, onions, and carrots in the fried rice. I didn't see any egg, which I love in my fried rice. It tasted just mediocre and needed soy sauce to really help it out. In conclusion, I didn't really enjoy it and I don't know that I'd ever return. If I could give a half grade, I would probably rate it lower than I did. read more

Great hole in the wall/casual Chinese takeout. Everything we've had has been great and fresh. Very reasonably priced and very friendly! We had leftovers for days! read more

I would like to give them 3 & 1/2 stars. We had 4 different lunch specials. Could of used a bit less rice and a bit more of the meal. Spring rolls and crab ragoons were also tasty. read more

So we have been getting food from Eat Rice for a number of years for a total of about 25 times. The food is very good but the service leaves much to be desired. As it is only a take out business there only service is timely take out times. Now for the past several years we have been mostly frustrated in this regard. Tonight was a prime example, we ordered the food via phone at 5:30 and were told 60 minutes. Now we know from previous experience that we leave the house at the time they tell us the food will be ready. We are about 10 minutes away so tonight we actually left about 10 minutes later than the time we were told we got there and were told 10 more minutes however it was almost 25 minutes later we left with the food. This type of bad estimate of time has been going on for a few years but this was one of the longest delays. I think we are going to try a different place next time. read more

Best food ever! Wouldn't go anywhere else for takeout! The owners are wonderful! It is not a place to sit and eat, to small.

Eat rice is one of my local go to for Chinese restaurants. As far as the restaurant you are only able to take your food to go, they just have a couple of chairs set up by the door. They definitely fill each container to the top and everything is made to order. Downside is definitely the wait time. Everything is usually at least a 30 minute wait. Just went during the week and called at 6pm and was told it would be 45 minutes for two items. When I got there right at 6:45pm had to wait an additional 12 minutes to get my food. My meal was great and will go back again. read more

Was looking forward to some good rice and magnolian beef. Rice was mushy and no magnolian beef but some chicken side. Writing this review to remind myself never to go there again. read more

Really liked my Hunan Beef lunch special. Next time getting friend rice instead of steamed, but everything was good.

Food is amazing! Can't speak enough about how good it is. Portions are such an amazing value.

Been coming here since they open quite a while maybe 10-15 years and never had any complaints! Always friendly always hot always so good no matter what u order! It's a little place with some chairs so u can wait for ur food! On the weekends average wait time is over an hour but so worth it!! Never any issues with the deep fried food which we have had issues elsewhere! There kids when not away at school help on the weekends! If u watch fresh right off the burner ready to eat hot and don't mind waiting for great awesome food than this is the place for you! They are always busy but with a smile! read more

Great food at decent prices. Trying something new each time we go. Portions are very large and made fresh in front of you. This has become our go to place for Asian food read more

Horrible. Worst Chinese food ever. Never go here. Food tasted burned. No flavor. Bad bad bad.

Got crispy orange chicken and it was amazing! You got a large portion and it was so fresh & yummy!

We ordered garlic and orange chicken, Szechuan pork, pork fried rice, chicken lo Mein and crab Rangoon. Everyone was delicious and it's lasting us three days worth of meals! The woman at the counter was so kind and timing was good (phone order) they only needed about 5-7 extra minutes when I got there - happy to wait for fresh food :) Is it 5 stars because it's gourmet? No- but we did love everything we got! read more

Food is ok, but service is seriously slow here. Called in an order and still waited 40 mins. Busy place, but not that busy. Ridiculous actually . Average tasting food with slow service equals no return trip here. Prices were a little high for their menu also. Would I recommend it?? If your favorite place is closed, then yes. Otherwise, skip it. read more

Great food! Can never go wrong with their menu items. Wait was quite long, but they checked in with me often to give me an update. Would definitely get food from here again! read more

Excellent food. I do steamed vegetables and pan fried noodles....fresh veggies and NOT overcooked

Until the mom and pop restaurants get clued in that Americans of today want authentic/native preparation of their homeland's food, we will continue to get the sad, gravy laden Chinese food of the 1950's. Now, that being said, Eat Rice, although having a lot of the aforementioned gravy, is indeed, as other Yelpers have pointed out, one of the best Chinese restaurants in the area. Instead of taste, though, I'm going to talk about content. 1. Most Chinese restaurants, whether dine-in or takeout, provide too much rice with their dishes. You end up filling up on the rice and your main dinner has to be refrigerated as leftovers. Then, you have to make more rice the next time you want to eat the leftovers, but you always end up making too much, so now you have leftover rice that goes with nothing else in the fridge or gets thrown out. Am I right? Well, contrary to the directive that is this business' name, you are given the perfect amount of rice to go with your dinner. The only way you will have more is A) if you ordered extra or B) you just don't like rice very much 2. They don't skimp on the size of the cuts of meat, from chicken to beef to shrimp, you're getting chunks of meat, not fingernail sized pieces. See my picture of the shrimp? As big as a fortune cookie! 3. You're getting the meal you paid for, not a bunch of vegetables (celery in particular, ring any bells?) with a piece or two of meat thrown in. Also, you aren't getting crap veggies. My dish had carrots, broccoli, mushrooms, chestnuts, bok choy, green peppers, squash and cabbage in it, but more meat than any of the vegetables! I called in my order and was given a wait time of 30 minutes. In reality, it turned out to be closer to an hour, but I really didn't mind because when I got in, I saw that there was only one person cooking. I'd rather have to wait longer to eat than take a chance that I might be eating half cooked food, especially chicken. When I got home, we dug in. Hubs had the Szechuan beef and I had the Dragon and Phoenix (General Tso's chicken and garlic-y shrimp) both were good, in my opinion (hubs thought his was bland). We also had pork fried rice (standard) and he ate 2 pork egg rolls, which he said were mostly cabbage. Almond cookies were 3 for $.80 and fortune cookies were free (I got a little greedy and grabbed six, but I LOVE fortune cookies!). Overall, I would say it was a good amount of food for the money spent and the taste was better than average. I would go back again to try something different. As usual, I couldn't eat my whole dinner, so I'm eating the leftovers as I write this review. The amount of leftover rice is perfect. 102/2015 read more

Honestly, in the Franklin/Greendale-ish area this is the best friggin Chinese you'll get. That "other" place on 76th closer to Rawson just isn't this good. The problems I can see is this ridiculous name: Eat. Rice. What? Ok... ? And the location isn't providing any favorability -- can't friggin see the joint. But it's quite good. Lunch specials include free soup! Don't forget to grab the extras on the table, they don't put stuff like sauces etc. in the bag for ya. Yum. Really fresh tasting egg rolls! read more

Hot and fresh every time! Best Chinese around- everything is always delicious. 10/10 recommend!

Not sure what all the hype is about very basic bland Chinese food. Portion for the price is excellent but I'd rather have more flavor. Plus I ordered chow mein and they forgot the noodles completely... everything was pretty fresh however. I'm not sure I will try this place again but possibly a different dish next time. If your looking for decent portions for you buck this is it. If your looking for over the top flavor and authenticity this is no. read more

A great place to satisfy your Chinese food craving. They have great options, and they taste great. The lunch portions are very generous and a good price. Only reason for the four stars is because of the amount of time it can take. If you're ordering lunch, make sure to call in way ahead. Also, if you're ordering a couple hours before they close, be prepared for them to be out of the more popular items or be ready to wait a long time. read more

This is so far the best Chinese-American take out I've had in the Milwaukee area. I wish it were closer to my house. My first experience I called in 10 minutes before closing time, not realizing it was 10 minutes to closing time. I only realized when I showed up 15 minutes later to pick up and they were closed and cleaning up. They didn't hesitate or complain in the slightest when I put in my order and the egg foo young and orange chicken (or maybe it was General Tso's chicken) was pretty good. It's in a strip mall, and the place is the size of a large closet but who cares, they have good to-go Chinese-American with friendly fast service. read more

Stumbled upon here via Yelp and wanted to try out something with value. This place is located in a stripmall and going inside, this place is strictly take-out only. There's a small fridge with refreshments, and a table set with plasticware, fortune cookies, and sauces. Chairs are setup for you to sit and wait for your carry-out. I ordered the chicken and broccoli, the chicken lo mein (this place doesn't have Cantonese-style noodles) and chicken fried rice. Me and the kiddos enjoyed the fried rice and chicken lo mein. I liked the chicken and broccoli as well, kids are just picky eaters. Overall, the food was A-OK... nothing really knocked my socks off. I'm giving this place an extra star due to the friendly and fast service of these peeps. They were accommodating enough to give us some paper plates for our take-out back to our motel.

Walking in, I could smell dirty grease. The lights were almost all off, and the walls were incredibly dirty. There is one table, and a few chairs, and nothing more. We placed our order, and waited 20 minutes. We weren't given any soy sauce (used to it being put in the bag at other places) and were told that fortune cookies were .80 each--none included with the meal. Brought the food home, and the best thing we had was the plain white rice. Fried food was extremely greasy. Stir-fry meat appeared to be sliced deli meat. 3 shrimp in a dish that contained shrimp. With all of the No 1 Chinese restaurants, Panda Express and Wong's Wok, you can easily do much better. read more

I've been coming to this place since 2016 and it has not disappointed once. Food is always prepared fresh and is consistently great. The service provided by the family is always phenomenal. I'm all about small business support and this place resembles all I support by providing great food and at a reasonable price. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

So many good reviews. But not from me. I was quoted 20 mins on my food. I've now been waiting over an hour. It was my first and last visit. I'll stop anyone who say they want to come here read more

After reading reviews & being recommended by friends, I decided to give it a shot. I got the General tso combo and egg drop soup mixed with wontons. The General tso was pretty good, could've honestly been a little more crisp in my opinion. The soup kinda annoyed me. I was expecting more flavor from it sense it smelled to Sooo good, & they were stingy with the wontons. Ordered a large soup to go & there were only 2 wontons in it. read more

Meh, it's alright. I've had better, but I've definitely had worse. Full disclosure here: I really like Thai food; so much that it's ruined Chinese food for me. Compared to Thai food, Chinese food is bland and boring (at least in Milwaukee; read Vladimir's review). None of my food was overcooked or mushy, but it was BLAND! I ordered Szechuan beef and tried my wife's General Tso's chicken. Both dishes are supposed to be spicy (they even have a * indicating that they are spicy). I suppose I could have asked for extra spicy, but if it's a spicy dish then there should be some kind of a kick. I got nothing! We also ordered pork fried rice. It was O.K.,nothing special. This place is pretty much pick up only (they have one small table inside). They have packets of soy sauce, duck sauce, hot mustard sauce etc. that you need to pick up yourself before you walk out. You're gonna need them. Prices are very reasonable with good portions. We ordered two dinners,pork fried rice,two egg rolls and some almond cookies (for 3 people). The bill was about $33 with tax. Only two of us ate it and it took us over 2 days to finish it. We were told it would be ready in half an hour. We got there 20-25 mins. late (We always allow extra time no matter where we go) Good thing we did, we still had to wait 5 mins or so. Not a problem for us, but worth mentioning. I can throw a really good stir fry together at home and after this incredibly average dinner, I'm definitely inspired to do so. read more

Make sure you have an hour or possibly longer to wait. They're gonna tell you 30 to 35 minutes but that will be far feom the truth. We didnt even place a big order! I saw the young man put up our order next to the rest and we were 4th. After spending 30min looking at funkopops we got to sit for another 30 mon watching people order and leave with their food. Get it together eat rice or at least be honest about the wait times so i dont have to get yelled at by my diabetic father...... read more

Came here today based on Yelp reviews and all you Yelpers came through again! Yum! First, I skimmed over the reviews before I arrived and didn't notice that this is primarily a take out place. So, for my laziness, I am sitting at the restaurant's one sad little table. Eat Rice is a take out place to the point where there isn't even hot tea. Only cold drinks, oh well! I had the General Tso's lunch special and an order of Crab Rangoon. I'm picky about both of those items and both at Eat Rice were super good! The Crab Rangoon was hot and gooey. The General Tso's wasn't very spicy but it was very good. The lunch special comes with white or fried rice and soup. I had the hot and sour soup and I ate every drop! With a drink, my total (for a ton of food!) was less than $10. I agree with a prior review that I think they'd get more business with a better name and a better location. That being said, they must be doing pretty well because the owner was predicting the orders of obvious regulars as they walked in the door. I'll be back here for sure! read more
