    Lamb over rice
    Dale S.

    Not sure why we have never tried this place before last week, but I can confidently say that if you are looking for good flavor and value, Rice & Spice is worth a shot. Like many other reviewers, I recommend ordering ahead so your food is ready when you arrive. The business is like a grocery/deli and the staff has always been nice. They did leave the cheese off of a cheeseburger that was ordered which was a bummer, however when we asked for no jalapenos on something, they remembered that. In the last week we have tried a few of their burgers and a lamb over rice plate and although the portion size and presentation could use improvement, the flavor and value was good. We will be coming back more often, I am sure.

    L to R: Chicken Over Rice (~$8) and Lamb Over Rice (~$8).

    Rice & Spice doesn't look like much when you pass by, but they do have a decent selection of food here. I stopped by with a friend for lunch one day around 3pm. After checking out the menu, we decided to split the Chicken Over Rice (~$8) and Lamb Over Rice (~$8). Both dishes come with rice, salad, and a can of soda. It's also served with white sauce on the side. It took about 10 minutes to prepare our food, which wasn't too bad. It is A LOT of food for ~$8. I think this ended up lasting me 2-3 meals, so it is well worth the cost. The yellow rice is fragrant and the meats were well-seasoned. I enjoyed the salad and white sauce too which really brought the whole meal together. If you're in the Lodi area looking to grab a quick, cheap meal, Rice & Spice is a solid option!

    Chicken gyro
    Leanne S.

    Chicken gyro was so SPICY I licked my fingers when I unwrapped it and my lips and top of mouth instantly started burning. When I called and asked why it was so spicy they said "We put chili sauce on it ". Menu doesn't state that. Only tzatziki sauce. When I mentioned that they state it's spicy and they said "why?"Biggest waste of $10 with a tip. I have been leery of going and should have stayed away.

    Naan Kabob- such good flavor
    Del S.

    So- I can't believe it took me so long to try this place out- If you're looking for a good quality - low cost satisfying burger- look no further. I had seen pictures that others had posted and knew I wanted to try it. Recommendation- it would be better to call in your order before picking up- everything is freshly prepared- and that way you don't have to wait. If you're looking for Middle-Eastern, Indian or Asian food- seasoning or spices, come here. Super friendly workers that gave me suggestions on making some of the more traditional meals i.e. Seekh Kabob and Butter Chicken- (takes practice) Anyway, when I got home- hubby and I split all of the items so I could get a taste of everything- delicious delicious and I will definitely come back. (My favorite? The Jalapeño Burger combo comes with a soda and yummy fries) looking forward to trying all of the other things Be back soon

    Ok so Michael and I went to this store in Lodi to get a bite to eat and some pizza for tonight's party! First off we ate the loaded fries I had spicy chicken Michael had the philly cheesesteak I can not recommend them enough and I'm so full! Second the pizzas look and smell amazing and the prices were awesome! Third..... THIS IS A FULL BLOWN INDIAN INGREDIENTS STORE!!!!! Everything India I could ever want and things I didn't even know I was missing in my life was there. I will be spending a full paycheck there when I go back to work!!!

    Beef Strip Burger
    Tiffany K.

    The food here is consistent and satisfying. The burgers are my go-to's; I highly recommend the avocado burger and my friend is a big fan of the beef strip (beef bacon) burger. As for the wings, they're not the best wings I've ever had, but they are definitely the best halal wings I've ever had! The BBQ sauce on the wings are the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The wings are also big, which is a plus. Rice & Spice has definitely expanded their menu since I first started coming here and I have yet to try all the new items. Also, I suggest ordering your food over the phone ~20-25 minutes ahead of time. Enjoy!

That's a tough one to beat, but Guantonio's might be our new go-to spot for wood-fired pizza! The dough and crust were incredible. Great texture, great flavor, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. And almonds on pizza?! Brilliant. It sounded unusual, but it absolutely worked. Before the pizza, we took a chance on the melon bruschetta, and I'm glad we did. It was refreshing and paired really well with our wine. She had the Nero d'Avola "Rosa di Lupo" 2025 by COS from Sicily, while I had the 2024 Assyrtiko by Perlegos Family Wines from Lodi. Great combination with the food. The atmosphere is intimate and inviting. I'd definitely recommend making a reservation through the Resy app, especially because seating is limited. Parking is also very limited, and since the restaurant is in a residential area, be mindful not to block driveways or park in front of someone's home improperly. We got lucky and pulled right into a parking spot. My only criticism was that we felt a little rushed during the meal. There were a few moments when plates were removed without much acknowledgment, which made us feel like we needed to move things along. We actually wanted to stay longer, order more, and try additional items so we could experience more of the menu. It wasn't enough to take away from how much we enjoyed the evening, but a slightly more relaxed pace would have made the experience even better. That said, the food was excellent, the pizza was memorable, and overall we had a great experience. We're already looking forward to coming back and working our way through the rest of the pizza menu. Maybe we'll grab the patio next time. Definitely worth checking out if you're in Lodi area.

We've been wanting to try this spot for a while, and since their other location is closed in Sacramento on Tuesdays, we finally made the trip to Lodi and wow, it was absolutely worth it the wait and Abdul that helped us was cool. He had a good sense of humor. We were coming back from Monterey and all of us were hungry. We ordered quite a feast: (3) chicken tikka wraps without lettuce 8 piece chicken tikka 8 piece chicken malai 6 regular naans + 1 garlic naan Tandoori fish order Tandoori chicken pizza Chicken tikka masala rice plate Every single item was flavorful, mouth watering, and cooked perfectly. The chicken tikka and malai were tender and packed with flavor. The naans were soft and fresh, and the chicken tikka masala rice plate had that rich, comforting sauce that was creamy smooth you can't stop eating and dipping your naan into. The tandoori fish was a standout smoky, well seasoned, and tender. They give a lot of meat inside the wraps. The tandoori chicken pizza... let's just say we couldn't even wait to get home. We ate a slice in the car because the smell alone was too tempting. That's how good it was. We took everything to go, the quality was top tier! You can tell they care about their food and flavors and wanting their customers happy. Abdul kept letting us know the status of our order and took care of us with chutney and ranch. If you've been thinking about trying Smokey Grill, don't wait.... this place delivers on every level! Ask for Abdul, he is down to earth nice guy. 5 stars!! Thanks Abdul!! Photos are attached
