    Food is fantastic; I always visit because I really enjoy their spring rolls and sticky rice. They are fresh, delicious, and very healthy. However, the service leaves much to be desired, as the staff often seem impatient and show little interest in customer care.

    Spring rolls with beef, chicken and shrimp

    It was fantastic! Loved that I could build my own rolls and try most of the proteins. My favorite was the beef. The staff were nice and efficient. Everything inside was clean and neat. Liked the peanut sauce. Will be back!

    Food always tastes fresh , fresh spring are always the best in this hot weather, service is nice and courteous, I've come a few times here and it's always consistent, you have your selections of items that you want in your rolls , they also have banh sandwiches as well as bowls the weekends can be hard to find parking I'd recommend going the weekday, there's seating inside as well as outdoor.

    chicken and beef spring rolls

    I got to try Paper Rice for the first time this week. Immediately, I was greeted by their friendly staff. I was hesitant about the 3 rolls not being enough. To my surprise, I did indeed feel full and even shared my 3rd roll. I chose the chicken and beef option. I love both, but beef was my favorite. The food was good and it tasted so fresh. They keep the place clean and the service was fast. There's plenty of setting at Rodeo. I will be returning in the near future.

    I like how the beef bahn mi sandwich is a bit on the sweet side, but the second time I tried it, it was a little saltier. Nonetheless, this is my new favorite sandwich spot! A local acquaintance brought me here, and always gets extra mayo on it...which is good, but it's a little too saucy for me. I think the ratio of the fillings is super proportionate, and the packaging is so cute. I've kept the sticker, and think their concept is really simple and clean. It definitely beats Lee's Sandwiches or Banh Mi Che Cali (even though that's one of my all-time favorites), when it comes to quality and atmosphere.

    Wow this place is amazing. It's located inside rodeo 72. The service there is great. They're very friendly and helped me through the ordering process. I tried the beef and chicken spring rolls and they were delicious. I would definitely recommend. The only downside is I do think it is a little on the pricey side but it is worth it for sure.

    love getting spring rolls here. it's super healthy and you can customize literally everything that goes into it. i love the tofu here, which is surprising as i'm a meat eater. the meat is good too, but i love how light and healthy the tofu is, well seasoned and cooked. the little crisp eggroll inside gives an amazing crunch. like a little salad roll. always roll thru here with my coworkers and we love to sit outside on the beautiful patio. such a vibe!!!

    Delicious fresh custom spring rolls! This place is like the chipotle of spring rolls where you can choose what you want inside and they quickly make it in front of you assembly line style. Compared to other similar dishes, price is a tad high at 3 for $14.75 but for the quality and being able to customize a bit more it's still acceptable. Grilled beef was nice and had a char flavor and the shrimp crispy roll inside was a fan favorite! Some folks in our group also tried the garlic shrimp and said it was fresh and plump. Loved the house dipping sauce; it's a flavor explosion and the perfect kick from the spices. We also tried the peanut sauce and citrus sauce and both were also super flavorful depending on your mood. Since we ordered 3 sets we noticed some slight inconsistency in how many toppings they put on since it's just them eyeballing. One had two little mints and like 5 bean sprouts but didn't want to be difficult so just let it be. The employees were ok but we felt when we first entered they almost looked annoyed that customers came in to order as it was empty inside. Was not a top customer service experience but I'm more of a food taste person so not that big of a deal especially considering they looked like high school age. I'll still likely have this place in my lunch rotations!

    The concept of building your own spring rolls is great. I will say, they are a little stingy with the filling but the taste is great. I tried the pork, beef, and chicken. The meat was perfectly flavored but the beef was my favorite. The employees are all really nice and the line goes by pretty quickly. Will definitely try again.

    Pork belly, chicken, and shrimp
    Mr. Juan D.

    While out in the Whittier area with a buddy, we decided to finally check out Rodeo 72, the new food hall that's been buzzing all over Instagram. The first spot that grabbed my attention? Paper Rice. And let me tell you--this place is not just a clever name. It's a full-on flavor experience. I tried three rolls: chicken, shrimp, and pork belly. Each one was packed fresh, rolled tight, and stacked with balanced flavor. The ingredients tasted crisp and clean, and the texture was spot on--especially the pork belly, which was next-level. But the real MVP? That spicy sauce. It's bold, tangy, and just the right kind of heat. Not "send help" spicy, but the kind that wakes up your entire palate and makes you question how spring rolls ever existed without it. Customer service was on point--friendly, quick, and helpful. The overall vibe of Rodeo 72 was upbeat but not overcrowded, which made for a chill eating experience with just enough energy. Paper Rice honestly feels like Chipotle but for spring rolls--custom, fast, and way too easy to become obsessed with. Can't wait to go back and mix up some new combos. This spot is a must if you're in the area!

    I was so excited when I heard paper rice was opening in Whittier! I love their spring rolls so much but Pasadena was a little far for me. Their spring rolls and sauces are chefs kiss and tastes very authentic. I also LOVE their xoi chien (sticky rice patty) that I cannot find anywhere else. SO crispy and the flavor is yum! It's filled with pork, shrimp and mushrooms, a must try! For dessert I got their Vietnamese coffee and Pandan mochi Bundt cake. The coffee was strong, just how I like my Vietnamese coffee. The Pandan cake was soft, chewy with just the right amount of sweetness, SO GOOD. Their staff were friendly and efficient. There's always a good vibe One of my favorite places to eat!

Since there are multiple locations, we debated between the South Gate and Whittier spots because they're both about the same distance from us in Montebello. For our first visit, I'm really glad we chose this location. The shopping center is huge, so finding parking was easy, even though the area was busy. When we walked in, the restaurant was pretty crowded. All of the booths were occupied, and only a few tables were available, so we waited about five minutes while a staff member cleaned a booth for us. Once seated, we looked over the menu and ordered the egg rolls and garlic truffle fries to start. For our entrées, we chose the ribeye pho and chicken pho. The server was kind enough to offer me a sample of the salted coffee. I had already had coffee earlier in the day, so I didn't order one, but I'm glad I tried it because I'll definitely be getting one next time. Instead, I ordered the cucumber limonade. Overall, we had a great experience. The staff was friendly, attentive, and checked on us throughout our meal.
