We got the brisket pho to share since one is usually enough for us. This time it was really good so good we could've eaten our own and we had eaten three hours ago mind you. We also got a flan. That was also really good. The food came out quickly. The area inside is really nice too. read more

Went here this past Saturday to try thier Vietnese coffee and food, both are sadly very poorly made and tasted horrible! The guy that was running the place was so rude and nasty! I wouldn't recommend this place fpr a dog to eat at!! No stars and will never return! I hope it shuts down!! read more

BRUHHH I had this a while ago I don't even remember what the hell I ordered it was something beef or whatever but the people working there were so sweet and I took that stuff home with my mom and bro I literally pounded whatever the hell I got it went DOWN it was so good I think it was like rice and beef or something I didn't like the sauce that came with it but I'm white so that's probably not a them problem. GREAT! read more

One of our favorite places! It's tight inside so we always take it to go! The food is always the same and amazing!

I haven't been here in a VERY long time. They have changed a lot about the place. Mainly it is now counter service with a lot more to go activity than in-restaurant dining. But the food was just as tasty as I remember! And now with numerous pho places in town-- there is competition for being amongst the tastiest. The staff was kind and attentive. We thought the food was super tasty... and the restaurant, despite being modified to be more counter service is still a lovely little spot. Nothing super special but it has a little charm. Good pho! Good summer rolls! What else do you need? :) read more

Best Asian food around!!!! Food was fresh, and Bernard was awesome. I love coming here!!

Excellent Vegetarian Pho! Fresh ingredients! Loved the carrots, broccoli, and celery! Spices were delish! 13$ without tip! You could get tofu but I didn't want that! Highly recommend! Restaurant was clean! The lady who helped me was nice ! read more

This used to be a place we stopped every time we passed through Lancaster. Definitely not the quality I remember. My fried rice was tasteless -- no punch of garlic or first sauce I could detect -- and I had to douse it in Sriracha to get anything out of it. The taro pudding held up (and is still amazing and green) but I remember the food being way more flavorful. The seating space is still nice (though small) and at least service was fast. Thing I'm moving on to other restaurants in the area. read more

Bernard and Alys... EXCELLENT! Rice & Noodles staff provides the most personable service. They remember every customer by name. Food is amazing & nostalgic. It reminds me of home cooked Vietnamese food. Hands down best restaurant in Lancaster! Ps. Restaurant is very clean! read more

Rice & Noodles - Vietnamese Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Summary: Delicious and refreshing Vietnamese Banh Mi and other dishes at great prices. Love their traditional Soda Chanh and Soda Chanh Muoi drinks! Loved this place!!! We visited Lancaster for the first time and were so glad we found this place for some satisfying Banh Mi!! We loved them so much that we went back for more before we left Lancaster! Currently, this spot is only doing takeout and curbside pickup. They have another spot in the city that is dine in. Wait time for food is pretty fast, about 15-20 mins. Their Banh Mi's are served on foot long thin baguettes. At first sight, it didn't look like we would be full from them, but I was satisfied after I finished a whole Banh Mi. We ordered their BM 2, BM 5, and BM 7...All were fantastic and highly recommended! read more

I think it's one of, if not the best Vietnamese restaurants in the area. Truly fantastic food, with a hipster vibe. They also sell macarons! I've never ever had a bad meal here. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. read more

Authentic Viet restaurant in town! The pho and summer rolls were amazing! Family owned restaurant with amazing service.

If I can't get downtown to Sprout this is my go to. Being that I hate going downtown and dealing with parking fees it's my go to place more than Sprout. They are the same company with the same menu. Worth the trip every time to both of them. I recommend the CM2 & AP4. read more

Rice & Noodles - Vietnamese Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Enjoyed a hearty meal twice already. It's a bit of a distance for me but when I'm in the Lancaster area, I will stop here. Everyone is courteous and the food is quick and delicious. Though it has a fast food feel the food is not. They are cooking in a visible kitchen behind the counter. read more

Dined alone and was comfortable in doing so. Service was friendly. It's a small restaurant and I felt fortunate, that seating was available. Get the lime iced tea. I'm a big tea fan and this tea, was perfectly sweetened and the lime, refreshing. Ordered a plate of vermicelli noodles, thickly sliced homemade sausage on top, accompanied by lettuce leaves, fresh basil, sliced cucumber, pickled julienned carrots and a sweet sauce. I sausage was flavorful. Originally, I didn't think my meal would be filling, but it was amply portioned. The only downside and it's minor, is that I wish the pickled carrots had more zip, to them. read more

Have to try asian food even in Amish country! I ordered the seafood stir fry noodles and was disappointed the seafood came in a container of soup and the noodles was separated. I would assume when you stir fry..it's dry and you stir fry the seafood/noodles together! I also ordered the caramelized fish. The host of the B&B I stayed at loved it so much, he tried to get the recipe to duplicate it! It was delicious, a hint of spicy, a hint of sweet glazed. Went excellent with rice. Not a bad spot for dinner and would've love to try more of their items. read more

Great, clean restaurant. From the outside it looks unassuming. But it's super busy inside because the food and service are great. Order at the counter and be lucky to find a seat. Food comes out fast. Beef pho was really hearty - perfect for a cold day! Pork noodle bowl was great - tender grilled pork bites over noodles and salad, with a fish sauce drizzle. Super good. They were very accommodating to those with small children as well, as the restroom is heated and has a clean changing table. Extra points for this kind touch! read more

A long-time favorite. All of the food is fresh and staff is always friendly. The vermicelli noodle bowls and spring rolls are our go-to!

Food is very good! Quick service. I ordered online and it was easy for take out. Everything was wrapped very good so when we got home it was all good. read more

On a trip out to Lancaster, we came across Rice and Noodles, a little Vietnamese restaurant on Lititz Pike. Having been disappointed with international food in this part of Pennsylvania, we couldn't help but think, how good is a Vietnamese restaurant going to be way out here in Lancaster? The answer is; very good. Outstanding actually! For our meal we went with the Banh Mi Thit Nuong which was grilled chicken (they allowed us to substitute out the pork), green onions, garlic oil, crushed chili peppers, Chinese radish, julienne carrots, and nuoc mam sauce. We also got the Ga Xao Xa which was chicken sautéed with pineapple, garlic, cilantro and tomato and served over pan fried rice noodles. Next was the Bo Kho which is a rich and thick stew containing chunks of beef and carrots over a bowl of rice noodles. Then we got the Com Bo Luc Lac, which is stir-fried beef and yellow onions over white rice. Finally, we got a beef and a chicken pho. Once all of the food was served and the wonderful aroma hit our nostrils, we dug in like savages. I was seriously surprised with how bold their flavors were and I was wowed by all of the delicious dishes. Everything was outstanding, top to bottom. It was a truly superb meal, one of my favorites from our trip. Pricing was reasonable, 4 entrees and 2 Pho's was about $70. Service was fine. Overall, five stars for Rice and Noodles. Highly recommended! Summary: Food - 5/5 - Super delicious, bold flavors, very enjoyable. There are lots of options on the menu. Atmosphere - 4/5 - Minimalistic, but clean and pleasant. Service - 5/5 - Hard working staff, not a lot of chit chat (which I prefer actually) and the food was served quickly. Value - 5/5 - Outstanding value for the price. Portions were very generous. read more

Highly recommend this place. Authentic FRESH tasting food! I've tried a few different things on the menu and they were all delicious! The Pho and spring rolls are my faves! I wasn't sure about the sandwiches until my brother got a few different ones to share and I was pleasantly surprised. They're so flavorful and tasty! It's a small restaurant to dine in and the parking area is a match for the dine-in area. I've done both before and would still recommend them either way (eat in or take out). read more

The restaurant was take out only with car-side delivery - not sure if it's the norm or due to COVID. Their menu had a wide selection with super reasonable prices. I ended up opting for the Tai Pho and was pleased with it. For the price of the food, I would definitely recommend! I'll probably be back to try their other menu options. read more

I've never had a terrible meal. Love this place just as much as their sister location Sprout. No criticisms here, other than the fact that I don't get here enough! The vermicelli salad bowls are my favorite! You can't go wrong with the fried tofu or the chicken. And please do yourself a favor and add the egg rolls! Hands down one of my favorite places in Lancaster! read more

Rice & Noodles - Vermicello pork salad bowl with two egg rolls to top - Vietnamese Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

As an asian this is by far the worst pho I've had in my whole life. Just go to Pho Pasteur 3 if you want real pho

Best there is with service like family. This is a 5 star restaurant without the 5 star prices.

Food was good a great healthy option vs traditional Asian food. Food was fresh restaurant very clean.

Service: the service was good and very quick. Friendly staff Food: the pho was average in my opinion. The broth was tasty but the overall ingredients inside were subpar compared to some of the other local Vietnamese place. The spring rolls and fried tofu also were not as good as some other places in town. Overall the food was average read more

I sabotaged my boyfriend into eating this food. Well, not sabotaged, but he's not so adventurous when it comes to food. However, he got hit by a nasty respiratory bug while at a work training, so I went in search for some comfort food to go. I admittedly do not have much experience with Vietnamese cuisine. I've had pho before, but that's about it. I figured some nice hot soup would do him well, and found Rice & Noodles not too far from our hotel. I ordered us a few things, because I wasn't going to lose out just because he was sick. Bo Kho: A spicy beef and carrot soup. I ordered this with egg noodles. I loved this way more than my selection. It was a flavorful heavy broth; he added sriracha for extra kick. The beef was very tender. Large was a HUGE portion! Hoanh Thanh: This was my soup selection. A lighter broth with wontons and pork slices. It wasn't that it was bad; my boyfriend's was just so good that I was disinterested in this. The pork was a little dry, but soaking in the broth helped. Bun Bi Thit Nuong: This was also a winner! Vermicelli salad with shredded pork skin and pork chunks. This pork was flavorful and tender. Loved the dressing on it. We got it with the egg rolls, which were tasty and fresh. Jasmine tea with lime: Amazing! I saw it on the menu and wasn't sure about getting it until the take out order in front of me ordered one. It's the best limeadesque beverage I ever had. The employees I encountered were pleasant and answered all questions I had. I was surprised how busy it still was at 7:30 on a Monday. Dining area looked very clean but small. Prices were very reasonable for how much food we got. The food was absolutely delicious. I also liked how everything was packed separately (as in the noodles/toppings from the broth). I was a little disappointed in the amount of toppings we both received, however. I'm not exactly sure what ours were supposed to come with, but we didn't get any limes, jalapeños, bean sprouts, and barely got any onions and cilantro. We did get sriracha and a spicy chili paste, though. Not a deal breaker, and something easily remedied in a dine-in situation. I would not hesitate to stop here again. I think I got my boyfriend on the pho bandwagon, AND he felt a lot better the next day. Can't wait to explore more of the menu next time I'm in town! read more

Food is good, but nothing particularly delicious or special. Reasonable prices and ok service. The banh mi we ordered surprisingly didn't come prepared with jalapenos, cucumbers, or cilantro. When we requested some, we were charged another $3 and had to add it into the banh mi ourselves. The beef pho was 7/10. Not the worst experience or food by any means, but of the Vietnamese food I've had, this admittedly isn't top of the list. read more

Perfection every time! I love this restaurant! The food is what it is all about. Service is prompt and courteous. The dining room is small but always clean and inviting. read more

Our family has been customers at Rice and Noddle's since they opened. Their food stays consistently outstanding throughout the years, and the owner is very personable. They are very knowledgeable about food allergies, especially regarding gluten-free food. Please note that they only do takeouts. Highly recommended if you want high-quality Vietnamese food. Don't forget to pick up a Vietnamese coffee. It's super good! read more

I am so surprised that this restaurant can get nearly 5 star with almost 400 people's review! Their food is actually not so good! We order wonton soup, Pho(P1), and pork chop rice. The pork chop has a smelly flavor. The wonton soup isn't like the picture I saw on Yelp. That one is filled with wonton, but when I got mine, come on! Only a few MINI-sized wonton! And for the pho which is the spirit of Vietnamese food really disappointed me! The beef is so dry. The basil and bean sprout is not fresh either! Sigh read more

Rice & Noodles - Pork chop rice, wanton House Special Wonton Soup, and Pho(P1) - Vietnamese Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Passing through Lancaster this morning and this one popped up as one of the two ethnic restaurants in my bookmarks that I wanted to try. Silantra doesn't open till noon on Saturdays, so we wound up here, around 11:00 am. There are stairs on both the front and back entrances, not good for the handicapped. Through the decor I could see an attempt to give this place a hip and modern feel albeit ad hoc. Still, this eatery felt clean and pleasant. The metal utensils were placed inside plastic! I came specifically for one dish, the Bun Rieu Cua (thanks Carissa!). I couldn't find it on the menu, but the waiter who took my order guided my attention to the postcard on the table number holder (see Photo). I was in luck because this is a seasonable dish and it was available today! It came within 10 minutes. I thought the bowl seemed a bit on the small side, maybe I was hungry. It was hot but I liked it piping hot, so I flagged down a waitress to have it nuked for 1-2 minute. And then it was perfect. I've never had this dish before. The tamarind soup base was very tangy and tasty. They also gave a generous serving of the crab/pork meat balls. The fried tofu added an interesting texture to the bite. At the end I was more satisfied than I thought I would. My son ordered BM #5 Banh Mi Thit Nuong (seasoned pork) and he loved it. The bread was especially crispy and fragrant. The signature banh mi pickled daikon and carrot made any given bite salivating. And the chili sauce on top was better than Sriracha!! (Yes, I begged my son to give me 2 inches of the goodness.) Service was superb. We were attended several times by our inital waiter, and by the time the meal was over, we were attended by all of the 4 wait staff. Minimum charge for credit card: $5 A solid four star rating! read more
