This is my go-to place for inexpensive Asian food. They are cozy, low key and great for a group. They aren't crazy busy because they are off the beaten path. I had the realization that I've never had a bad experience here. And that's worth noting. If the owner reads this, thank y'all for being so accepting of the lgbt community read more

Good food and a lot of it. Nice atmosphere to sit down and enjoy your meal. Customer service was great each time I visited.

My husband & friends took me here for my birthday!! First of all the service was absolutely amazing everyone was so kind and positive!! Honestly the food came out fresh and delicious, I can't even explain how mouth watering the coconut shrimp is. The ambiance was very soft and inviting it was not loud whatsoever and the overall aesthetic of the restaurant was beautiful! Best dining service hands down! read more

Rice Box - E3. Coconut Shrimp - Sushi Bars Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

Decided to use a credit on DoorDash and this place had some good reviews if you really read through, and I'm glad I went for it. I decided to be adventurous and ordered 3 different things. - Alaska sushi roll, 5 of 5, best I've had in this area, and cheap too! Seattle and Japan spoiled my taste for sushi, so I rarely get rolls. This was great for a simple roll in the US - cheese wonton, 3 of 5, only because it got a bit soggy on the trip, I can't blame them as it's 15 minutes away - Hibachi fried rice with shrimp, chicken, and beef, 5 of 5, big shrimp and tons of meat, very well made This may become my new go-to for asian takeout read more

Lots of flavor in a tiny location. Very easy to order some quick and tasty food. The server/cashier was helpful and knowledgeable which is always a plus. My noodles were still good reheated the next day for lunch. Can't say enough great things about this small box that packs some big flavor. read more

Was craving cheese wonton so I decided to try it out. The prices are ridiculously cheap and the portions are good for the price. The taste is soso. It's not like the greatest but it ain't so bad. I would so go back for a cheap meal. It was a meal for 5 and we had a lot still leftover. 2/5 Orange chicken Had a strange after taste. We weren't a big fan. Maybe too much orange peel? 3/5 General Taos Chicken We liked this one much more than the orange chicken. It really tasted similar to the orange chicken tho but just without the odd after taste. 3/5 Cheese wonton It was a nice size but was more chewy than crispy. The inside was alright. 3/5 Beef fried rice Wasn't bad either. Was light on the beef tho. 3/5 Noodles with shrimp It was alright. Surprising had a lot of shrimps, which was a plus. 1/5 Boston roll All lettuce and a tiny scrape of shrimp 4/5 Alaska roll Pretty good. Was salmon, avocado, cucumber 3/5 Eel roll Tiny, flavor was alright read more

The menu for this place during quarantine is absolutely beautiful. I have been ordering at other places during lockdown, and this place was impressive. A full menu, lots to choose from, and happy with what I saw. I ordered some egg rolls, Lo Mein, Wonton Soup, Moo Goo Guy pan, and a couple other menu items for other people. (This was for a family of 6, lol). I went to pick the stuff up and reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was because I ordered my stuff at 6:05pm. I was told at 6:55pm my order would be ready. I showed up at 6:53pm and I called to let them know I was there. They told me to go through the drive thru to pick it up. Well, there were 2 cars ahead of me. By the time I picked it up, I was 7:33. I wasn't a happy person considering I had a bad feeling that food would've been cold. Fortunately, the food wasn't cold. On my way home, a dump truck in front of me stalled in the middle of a one lane road, and I slammed on my breaks. Guess where all the food went?? Yes, on the floor. Wwwwaaahhh!! Well, someone lost a little sauce out of their container (never did figure it out but no one complained). To my surprise the food was still warm, and everything was pretty good. I was a little worried about trying the Lo Mein though. It was red like spaghetti. Lol. It didn't taste that way, but it make you wonder. The only thing they didn't have on the menu that I really wanted was crab Rangoon. Over all I was happy with the menu, food was pretty good, and I would be back again. read more

Hole in the wall that is located fairly close to the UA-Huntsville campus that definitely attracts the students to sushi rolls, hibachi plates, and Chinese dishes. Hot sour soup and the hibachi plates are good. There are plenty of meat and veggies on the plate. The restaurant signage on the outside definitely needs a makeover. Amazing service that are quick on their feet makes me want to visit again when I am in town on a lost day read more

The food was decent but it all "came up" once I saw this "lil guy" climbing the Bamboo decor upon my exit. read more

Rice Box - Orange chicken - Sushi Bars Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

The food taste great! Great options for vegans and vegetarians . Service is great, and the atmosphere is relaxing.

I must say. This place looks absolutely horrible on the outside... and it'll make you feel regret before you even go inside, but on the inside it was very well maintained. The food was really good and generously portioned. It's hard to find a place with the value you'll receive here for the price in todays economy. Unfortunately they were understaffed in the serving department, but we were patient. The food made up for it. read more

I desperately want to love this place. I'm not sure if I just ordered the wrong thing, or just an off day for lunch. We called it in for pickup. I ordered the Hibachi Rice Box Combo Lunch no rice extra veggies. The veggies were great. Great variety, however it wasn't the typical hibachi sauce or veggies. It was really oily and the sauce appeared the be oiled based. The Beef (steak tips) was the best protein. The chicken was actual diced chicken breast but had a almost dry taste. Lastly the shrimp and scallops, were a complete no go. The shrimp didn't seem very fresh, and the scallops were the size on a half dollar and roughly 1/4 of an inch thick and super rubbery. The sauce that comes with is like a take on a Yum Yum sauce. It reminded me of a warm ginger dressing. The inside had a musty smell almost as well, and the sushi counter was cluttered with items on top and the "fresh fish" inside the cooler on display did not seem super fresh. When we come back I will definitely try the teriyaki beef with extra veggies, or the beef and veggies with sauce on the side. read more

They are wonderful and don't mind me bringing my own gluten free soy sauce and cooking with it. I get hibachi chicken. Super good with fried rice I just bought a gluten free oyster sauce and can't wait to bring it to have other safe food choices. My kid loves the food too. He's not gluten free and loves the scallops. They have seaweed salad and lots of appetizers. The restaurant is pleasantly lit with lamps over the tables and plays soft relaxing music. read more

Asked for the worker's recommendations for two entrees and two sushi rolls. He suggested the honey sesame chicken and the General Tao's as well the California roll and the Philadelphia roll. One out of four were tasty. The two entrees were hardly distinguishable from each other, with the sauces having such little flavor that my friend and I who were sharing all the items kept joking that we could hardly tell one dish from the other! They felt like highly-breaded, scantily-meated, microwavable meals you get from the frozen food section at the grocery store. I will say the sushi was better--the california roll was kinda meh but we rather enjoyed the Philadelphia roll--smoked salmon, cream cheese, and avocado--so in the unlikely event of a second visit to Rice Box, I'll get the Philly plus another sushi roll. Overall, we were both disappointed. Indeed, it was the first time I'd ever seen my fat friend NOT finish his meal! read more

The rating of 3 stars does not reflect the number of times I have eaten at Rice Box, both this and the Florence location. This is a terrific restaurant for a quick bite to eat in or to carry out. I have tried over 75% of the items on the menu, and have never been too disappointed in the quality and consistency of the food. The dining in experience is also fantastic, with a very low key environment to enjoy your meal. The reason for my 3 star rating is that their food is very normal as far as Asian food goes. They take no risks when preparing their food. This allows them to provide a very consistent experience, but not a very exciting one. Overall, I would recommend Rice Box to anyone looking for a quick meal, but would point you elsewhere to get an exciting meal. read more

Rice Box - A2. Pork Egg Roll A12. Seaweed Salad E11. Triple Combo with Garlic Sauce - Sushi Bars Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

I stopped in yesterday to get a bowl of sesame chicken with white rice and a pork egg roll. Not sure why the chicken was red, the chicken itself was low quality and a little chewy. The broccoli with the entree was pretty unappetizing (broccoli being one of my favorite vegetables), the eggroll was nice n crispy but there were some weird spices that my pallet did not enjoy. Over all i was NOT happy with the food i received, i honestly took two bites and had to throw it out because it was such a disgusting meal. When i walked into the restaurant it smelled like dead chickens and rotting food. The lady that rang me up was atleast kind of friendly. The online ordering process was the only thing that went smooth. However half the entrees dont have pictures on em ): read more

I'm not sure why they got bad ratings in the past. Maybe because I didn't go through the drive-through. The food was delicious and the portion sizes we're large. Also, I had plenty to take home for lunch. The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. The bathroom was large and clean and there was plenty of parking. read more

I ordered from here because it was one of the few places open on doordash. The honey sesame chicken & pork egg rolls were both delicious. However, I did not touch the rice. The brown rice was 2 separate colors/textures in the box which was very unappetizing. I would order again, especially for the egg rolls. read more

This rating is based upon my drive through experience and the quality of my food. I decided to try this place out after leaving the car wash since it was nearby. I ordered the Teriyaki Chicken & Shrimp. The wait was about 10-12 minutes or so. The food was piping hot except in the center of the dish which was quite cold. The amount of time I waited should've definitely granted me a thoroughly heated meal. The teriyaki sauce was a bit bland and not rich enough. There was more veggies than meat which wasn't a deal breaker but I did pay extra for more meat. I've definitely had better in the area. read more

Rice Box - Teriyaki Chicken & Shrimp - Sushi Bars Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

I love Rice Box. My family does as well. Out of all the fast food and American dining places and buffets, when I ask my wife and 4 kids where they want to eat, Rice Box is number 1. Great staff, great food, and great atmosphere for dining. And we ask the waitress to show us how to use chopsticks and she literally took about 5 minutes to go around and help everyone use chopsticks and we always ask for chopsticks now! read more

Great food. Would recommend. Their service is wonderful. The inside is great and pushing a great environment.

Ricebow is a weekly choice of ours.. As always the honey sesame tofu was delicious, now this is the kids choice as well.

Does not look the best from the outside or inside decor. My wife and daughter met me here for lunch. They has some sushi and I a beef and pepper dish. All was very tasty and served quickly. read more

Good service. The teriyaki chicken was just so-so. The vegetables and chicken were cooked perfectly; it's just that the sauce was way sweet, and too syrupy for my taste. The food was also just drenched in it. The rice was so-so. The won ton soup was good. read more

I give 'em a four and a half. Anybody remember when Guthrie's chicken restaurant opened years ago, with searchlight beams in the sky visible for miles? Rice Box is where Guthrie's was. I think there was a Rolo's express or something here after that. It's like behind the Logan's Roadhouse on University Drive in Huntsville. The building has been greatly remodeled. Outside it is brightly colored, like a little pagoda or something. But inside, it is an elegant Asian restaurant, with black lacquered furniture. I liked our waitress. "I do not speak much Engrish," she volunteered. That's true. But with a little prompting, she did fine: My wife told her that we wanted to split our meal. "Sprit?" Share, I explained. Anyway, the food was very good to excellent. Check this place out. They also have a drive-thru. For music they were playing some American pop oldies. Not bad, but I'd have preferred some soft Oriental background music. read more

This restaurant chain came recommended to me by a friend. Upon arrival, I was more than skeptical...the place looked like an old chicken tender place and even had a drive-thru. Actually, I very nearly had my lunch mate keep on driving. Judging the book by its cover, I know. The inside was nicely remodeled in the typical 'Asian style' often found. On to the important stuff: the food, which was quite good. My lunch mate and I tried the general tso chicken and some sushi. I won't say it is the best Chinese or the best sushi, but it was better than just good and I'm taking into consideration that you can get both of those better than good items in one location. I like the variety option. Plus, the lunch special sushi is a good deal. My only real complaint, which is disheartening considering the name if the restaurant, is that the rice was extremely subpar. I got the fried rice...and it was simply overcooked, soft, flavorless brown rice with bits of egg. read more

So, I like to try different local sushi places when I travel. I'd dropped someone off nearby & found Rice Box and decided to give it a try. I pulled up on a Sunday at noon & only two other cars were in the parking lot. That should've been the first sign that the place wasn't that good. I walked in and stood up by the hostess stand, waiting to be seated. A gentleman by the sushi bar asked if I was ordering to go or dine in. I told him that I was dining in. He said that he could help me at the counter. I skimmed though the menu & saw a lunch special that was two rolls for $7.99. Decided to get that. I ordered the spicy yellowtail roll and salmon & avocado roll. The cashier told me it came with a salad & miso soup. I paid & he told me my would be right out. I sat at one of the tables & waited. The restaurant had an odd smell, a mix of musty, cleaner & some kind of fragrance. About 5 minutes later he came over with my food all packed up in a bag like it was a to go order. Oh well. I took the food & left. I decided to eat the sushi in the car as I waited to pick someone back up. I open the salad & put some of the ginger dressing on the salad. The lettuce must've been pretty wet because there was a lot of water in the bottom of the salad container. I didn't try the miso soup because I don't eat miso. Onto the sushi. The two rolls featured a lot of fish, salmon & yellowtail. The fish on both rolls was warm, which made me very nervous. The smell was also somewhat fishy. Usually the fish in sushi is chilled because it's been stored in a refrigerator. I think this must've been sitting out for a while. It also had a shine to the fish. I took a bite from each roll & decided to through out the rest. I really wasn't in the mood to get food poisoning. I'm writing this review a couple hours later & hope that I don't get sick. There are much better options for sushi. Don't think because this place has a drive thru that it's a fast place for sushi. A fast place for food poisoning maybe. read more

Run they have roaches'! I'm too disgusted to even have to type this... the food portions were great, the people were very nice, but the roaches (one crawling up the wall by the kitchen) which the man up front tried to kill and remove in a napkin discreetly (but I saw him) and the big grown on that crawled across the counter when my husband got up to pay the bill. I am totally disgusted... we paid for our food and will never ever return. If it were left up to me we would have NOT paid. Unacceptable. read more

This is one of our favorite sushi restaurants, not only because of the great food but their great prices. Rice box is normally not too busy and you'll ever have to wait to be seated. Food usually comes out pretty quickly, our food came out a little too quickly. The staff is always pretty nice, we have never had a real problem with them. We did find a piece of plastic in our salad today (Reasoning for 4 stars). When the serves walk away from your table they go sit in another booth and eat right in front of you. This place is not fancy at all. The music is very loud and it's a mix between today's hits and K Pop. They only have maybe 2-3 servers but this place never gets super busy. All their beers are 99 cents after 3pm Wednesday-Friday. Food overall is pretty good. read more

Pros: Fantastic prices, especially considering that this restaraunt is very much similar in taste and quality to Stix/ Shogun type establishments where the Hibachi meal is prepared in front of you. I was very happy that we were a able to order two meals, and sushi for about $30 ($40-$50+ elsewhere). Hibachi Beef, Hibachi Steak, Sushi Special (including two rolls, salad and miso soup). Overall, our meal was prepared quickly, and nicely arranged. Our waitress was very courteous and provides good service. Cons- it was VERY COLD (39 degrees according to the thermostat) in the restaraunt, they would not turn the heat on, and it smelled as if the establishment may have a few leaking/standing water issues. This is my only con, and i'm sure they're working on things. read more

Pretty good for sushi thru the drive thru. I ordered the lunch sushi special. With tax was $8.71. I tried the spicy tuna roll and the crunchy shrimp roll. The spicy tuna roll was really good and had a good kick. The crunchy shrimp roll was ok. They used imitation crab meat instead of shrimp. Ginger salad and the miso soup was good. read more

We had the opportunity to visit the Rice Box last Wednesday, to the our pleasant surprise the inside was really nice. Great ambience, and the waiter was nice. We shared to appetizers, cream cheese wontons and steamed potstickers. The wontons were a little on the sweet side and should have been on the dessert menu but still good. The potstickers were however awesome! The only suggestion I have is to get the fried compared to steamed. The filling is awesome but the outside can give a strange texture to some. As our entrees we both got the fried rice. The fried rice was just ok, but adding the dipping sauce from the potstickers took it to another level. Overall I gave it 4/5 stars, I could see myself going back read more

Inexpensive is the good thing, quality is the bad thing. You get what you pay for here. If you pay for cheap sushi then you get cheap sushi. Bland, tasteless, and the rice was severely over cooked. It reminded me of the quality you get from gas station sushi or the kind you get on your way out of Kroger. read more
