The food is always fesh, delicious, and plentiful. And the hot saki is a special spicy treat. Tonight, my partner enjoyed a hot saki while I delighted in an Austrlian White Wine of a Pear Muskato varity that crisply complemented the fish appetizer, sushi roll, and entre I chose. My partner enjoyed a Spicy Thai Pineapple Shrimp entre that he reported to be just right on the spice he loves to have firey and super flavorful. My stomach these days cannot handle much fire and spice & that was no problem at all. The chef adjusted my Thai Seafood Special Delight in Spicy House Brown Sauce to a tasty House Brown Sauce without the bite but with lots of luscious flavor. Yum! I could not eat it all of course, so I'm going to be in heaven all day tomorrow with our leftpvers. And the real treat of the night was the Naruto appetizer featuring chunks of various tuna & other fresh fish bites wrapped in cucumber with veggies and fruit, Wow! I was delighted. And the "Oh, My God" sushi roll was delicious as well. Still I am surprised at how the Naruto turned out to be my favorite spot light of the meal. The owners, chefs, servers, and all staff look out for their customers needs with genuine care and attention. I really like all of the employees in this business, which very much works like a close family. Rice Box is our favorite Asian Restaurant in Denver. And we love the variety offered in this casual dinning environment that features (1) a long bar for drinks and watching the sue chef's skills, (2) movable cozy tables for 2 or 4 that can be pushed together, and (3) booths that include booth table combos along a front and back wall, with table portions that can also be pushed together for medium to larger size parties. Food and beverage-wise, there's something for everying in this welcoming environment. I love it! read more

Idk how this place only has 3.5 stars, the portions are so good and such a good deal. Dinner specials are 10.99 and lunch specials are all $8.69, where else are there deals like that? Wonton soup had 5 wontons inside, for $2.99... that's an insanely good deal. This place is fire, everything comes out so fast too read more

Food is incredibly fresh and always tastes great. We have dined in and done take out. Always hot!

The decor of the place is really cute and I think like all the lights and decorations amazing. The service was really great. They offered some candy and they even threw it through in something free for the wait. I ordered some noodles with dumplings and rice. The noodles and dumplings were great however, the rice was just so watery. if you want to go to a better restaurant I recommend going to the one next to Food Lion. read more

Everything is overcooked. There is no customer service. I never eat in here; only take out.

Rice Box - Thai Basil Shrimp - Asian Fusion Near Me - Denver, North Carolina

I wasn't going to bash this place because they have good food, but this time I found a long black hair that was actually cooked into a grain of rice. I don't have black hair, i have blonde hair. I wasn't concerned about the money, but I wanted to call the store and tell them about it so no one else would have to pull someone elses hair out of their mouth. I called the store and the lady who answered the phone was incredibly rude and nasty and wouldn't even let me get a sentence out without yelling at me, I hadn't even told her what happened and she just started yelling at me for no reason. So, if you decide to eat here or order, beware and look out for nasty hair and rude people. read more

Amazing quality, fresh food, good service and great atmosphere. We enjoy our meals there every time! Best sushi place in Lake Norman.

Service was horrible. Was trying to celebrate my son's birthday. The lady at the counter was consistently rude to us and rushing our order. I asked for Coke but was given Pepsi. Didn't even say they only had Pepsi. Got my wife's drink after getting a refill and wouldn't let us see the check before paying. I would not advise anyone going here. There are better take out places and dine in near by. read more

I was really hungry for Chinese food. We found this rice box restaurant. The place is empty! The food was nasty! The beef pepper and fried rice was so bad! Fried rice has nothing added to it. It's so bad! Waste of money! Do not ever come here!! The lady who took our order was so rude. She has no manners! Appeared irritated that we came to order!! Over all, the service and food was extremely bad read more

I had high hopes for Rice Box. But it did not meet my expectations. I am still searching for a very good Asian restaurant in Denver. The food was not very good. I ordered Thai Basil Chicken from the Signature Menu. It was 75% cabbage and no basil. The taste was just okay. I like cabbage but not this much! My wife had the Roasted Cashew Nut Chicken. She liked it but said she would order something different next time. The interiors were good and the service was acceptable. It was odd that we were asked three times for drink orders - twice from the same person. She was not paying attention. It was not busy. We were one of two parties in the restaurant for dinner. read more

Service was terrible and ordered a jasmine tea and it was fine till I got a refill and was green tea. My food was so hard it almost broke my teeth. Would not recommend. read more

So far Rice Box has been the best restaurant we have been able to find locally within 25 mins of us. The food was so good and tasted fresh. The flavor was near perfect. Baby and toddler friendly. We had our newborn, they have car seat sling seats, and our 2 year old with ASD. It was a nice calm and clean environment so our daughter was nice and relaxed. She tried to use her chopsticks and had lots of fun. She even tried a piece of sushi. read more

There food is amazing I go here all the time. Family owned business, and service is great.

The food was bland. I had hibachi shrimp with vegetables, this was served on a pile of white rice with a strange flavor, the shrimp was cooked on the hibachi and was very dry, the vegetables had almost no flavor except the broccoli which was almost raw. My wife had vegetable fries rice which was almost without any flavor. The person who greeted and served us was almost rude. read more

Absolutely love and recommend sushi if you're in the lowesville/Denver area. They're so sweet! I came a little after closing not knowing the closing time. They made me my order, gave me a free sweet tea. So sweet! read more

Food was delicious! I really enjoyed the Vegetable fried rice. My husband had a bento box that he loved.

Horrible!!! Not only was the food absolutely disgusting, it was also flavorless. Not only the sushi but how do you screw up beef and broccoli? See photos posted! Also when someone calls and asks what time you close and you say 930 and we specifically ask if we're there around 8:45-9 o'clock can we get seated and you say yes and then we show up and you have no indoor dining and just freaking stupid ass take out ......that is ridiculous, learn to speak the freaking language and give accurate information! Can't believe anyone eats here, nothing we ordered was good, in fact this was the worst Chinese/ sushi we have ever had! read more

Rice Box - Horrible excuse for sushi! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Denver, North Carolina

My family and I have been going to the rice box for probably about 8 years now. We have been to sushi restaurants all over the area and any state we go to and the rice box has been one of my all time favorites (so much so we drive 40 minutes one way just to go there) We have never had bad service, everyone is also so kind and quick. I have 3 kids and they go out of their way to make the experience enjoyable for them also. The atmosphere is wonderful and the food is even better. I recommend this place to anyone who likes sushi and I will continue to go for years to come. It made me sad when they closed down the dining area but I'm so glad it's opened again!! read more

We have ordered takeout from here quite a few times since moving to Denver, really out of desperation to have some Asian food! They are an Asian fusion restaurant, but not sure what they primarily would say their specialty is? We have tried the Thai and the Japanese. It is definitely not either of those! Maybe it is the Chinese? But we do not really eat Chinese food. The food that we have got was not close to be in comparative to other Asian fusion restaurant serving similar things. Do you not get the pad Thai! I have attempted it a few times, and I am not sure what I was given, but that wasn't it! We are so limited on options here, I wish that this was a good option! Two stars for the free donuts they often give! read more

Food is fresh and delicious! So refreshing to get a great meal. We try to eat here at least once a week.

The food was really great-Mongolian beef, 3 sushi rolls and miso soup. We had the lunch specials. Prices were fair. There's a full bar too - we had tea as it was lunch. Our waiter was quick, polite and thorough. The place was clean! read more

I have been eating here for several years and have looked the other way regarding their zero personality staff because I like the sushi rolls. Today was pretty much the last straw at this place. I came in with my wife and sat at the table. We were there for nearly ten minutes, and no one had even brought us a menu. The waitress/owner finally showed up and realized we had no menu and brought them over for us without taking a drink order. We then sat there for another twenty minutes, completely being ignored by the staff. There were only four people in the entire restaurant besides us. Then, to make it worse, four people walked in, and the owners son ran over to their table with menus and took their drink order. We then sat for another five minutes and finally got up and left. Unbelievable... read more

The food was absolutely disgusting. It had no seasoning. The texture was mushy noodles on top of more grilled vegetables than it should have. There were four pieces of grilled chicken which were also tasteless and on top of everything else wrong with the food the server was obnoxious , rude and condescending. Do your self a big favor and stay away from this slop chute they call a restaurant. The prices are also out of line. For the prices they charge the food should be better but it's not. Stay away and find another restaurant. read more

Updated review. We went last night and had another night of lackluster food. Service was kind and fast. The food is just inconsistent each night we seem to visit. read more

We ordered takeout. The food was delicious. The servings were more than ample. The woman who waited on the cash register was somewhat short with us. We have ordered here before and will return. read more

Rice Box is really good and they are stepping up their game!! I ordered the crab Rangoon and let me tell you they are giving Rice Bowl a run for it! Everything we ordered was hot and delicious! Roast pork egg foo young (not on menu) write it in! Scallion Chicken- so good! Chicken egg rolls Wow! read more

Came in tonight and no one is here. Was kind of skeptical but as soon as we came in, we were greeted and immediately given our menus. We sat down took a quick look and was asked for our drinks. Was able to get drinks and appetizer orders in and received within 5 minutes. Both our edamame and potstickers were fresh and seasoned so perfectly. We placed our entree orders and it came out within 10 minutes. Portions were perfect size, and the food tasted amazing! Husband got the orange chicken with white rice and lo mein, and I got the hibachi chicken with white rice. The server was so attentive that we didn't feel the need to go eye searching. Yes, we understand we are the only ones in so it should be expected, but you would be surprised at how some places cannot provide great customer service even with one customer. Overall, great experience, plan to visit again! read more

I live off doing doordash. Came in today and sat down to wait for an order to be ready. The lady brought me a sweat tea while I waited and gave me the tv remote to watch whatever I wanted. Very nice people. read more

Ok, something has went seriously wrong at the restaurant. It used to be average but the last three takeouts have been super awful. Wrong orders totally, leaving things out, hot sushi, and tofu instead of chicken????? Chicken tasted frozen and slimy. This was the last trip for a while from me. read more

I went to Rice Box yesterday. A large party of around 12 or so patrons was leaving when I walked in. No greeting, just seated. I ordered the Bento box. Substituted egg drop soup for the Miso soup ($2.00 xtra). The soup was the best part of the meal. It needed salt and pepper. I had to get up to ask for salt and pepper. The pepper shaker was DIRTY. I seriously almost walked out because it looked so nasty. I like crispy noodles with egg drop soup. There again, I had to get up and walk toward the register to make this request. The food in the Bento was ok. Chicken was very tender, almost slimy. Egg roll was not hot, nor was it crispy. They had it 1/2 in a cup of sweet/sour sauce. Crunchy shrimp roll had lettuce in it (is that normal?). Just a pea size amount of wasabi. Not enough for even 2 bites of sushi. Again, I had to get up and make that request. I was the ONLY patron in this establishment. The younger lady was not friendly. Neither was the 2 boys working there. There was a young woman, an older lady, a man and 2 high school boys working. They were all sitting eating their food. There was also a man who worked there eating at the other side of the restaurant. 5 people working. I'm the only one there. Never one time asked how my food was or if I needed anything. My check was $26.74 (beer was $7 can). I did not leave a tip. Such a disappointment. read more

Saw an ad online or TV for this restaurant. Thought we'd found a great new place to try out. We should have known when we went on a Friday night date-night, and there were plenty of seats available. The food was bland. Sweet & sour chicken was the best of what we ordered. Neither of us finished our meal. Broccoli chicken had no flavor, california roll was acceptable, rice was under cooked (crunchy), .. We will not go back! read more

There were 5 of us for dinner tonight. Everything that we ordered came out separately. Two of us didn't get our food until the other three were finished with their meals. The sushi rolls were very loose...you could tell they were prepared quickly. The food tasted good otherwise the overall rating would be a one. We don't eat out a lot and service is super important to me. The server never apologized for the delays and seemed to avoid us. read more

Scam! Tried to order for DoorDash pick up and was told that my order was supposed to be ready at 7:50 got there at 7:50 and was told my order was still cooking. Waited an additional 15 minutes for my order, finally left and they marked my order as ready. When I went back at 8:10 they said my order was still cooking. They should do door dash if they are not prepared for it. They definitely tried to take my money. Beware read more

Great food and service. The food was delicious and I had the orange chicken. Overall great experience.
