    Vermicelli - would likely order again.
    Robert C.

    Return or not return? Return. As a general observation, one of the most disappointing aspects of being in North Texas is the absence of any good Chinese food/restaurants. Likely spoiled after having lived in Vancouver, Toronto, and San Francisco. As for Rice Garden, drove by and decided to try hoping once again for almost anything I can be loyal to. This was clearly Americanized Chinese food and worth a try via takeout. Ratings below are in context of what's in North Texas. Prices: Very reasonable and doesn't feel like the many other restaurants who have taken inflation to a new level. Portions: Texas size and should have no complaints. Appearance: Clean Staff/service: No idea as was takeout, but food was packed ready to go within 20 mins of a web order. Food: Slightly bland which I welcomed bc I find most restaurants over oil or over salt their food. Would suggest some modest modifications to improve reception while still keeping food "Americanized" and keeping costs down. Hot & Sour Soup: Needs more black vinegar, as was imbalanced. It was also missing more of the usual traditional things like wood ear mushrooms, bamboo shoots, strips of pork etc but with all of this no way one can sell for $5.99. Nonetheless, the vinegar alone would have brought it home. Sesame Chicken: Ordered white meat (and liked that they had that option with no up charge). Decent flavor, but slightly mushy hence may order extra crispy next time. Vegetable Hot Pot: It was just ok, very non-descript. In isolation reasonably priced, but compared to pricing of other items within the restaurant, it shouldn't be among the more expensive entrees. Kung Pao Shrimp: Ok, non descript, but edible and may/not order again. Also tasted (and looked) too similar to vegetable hot pot. Singapore Vermicelli: Decent, but needed slightly more curry flavor as was slightly on blander side. A small amount of BBQ pork strips (i.e., char siu) to balance out the chicken would have been nice. Will order again. Want to see them do well, and will do what I can to support them.

    Happy to have a Chinese spot in the McKinney area. The service was pretty quick and I think the portions are really filling. The fries chicken was good, the general tsos was really good but the shrimp was pretty ok. Also the rice wasn't the best. All in all I would come back bc of convenience! It's not too bad

    Fried dumplings
    Deborah O.

    I often order here and their food is really good. I especially like the dumplings, jalapeño basil rice and mango slush. Fast service, chill vibes. Not too busy

    Overall very good service, this lady was extremely nice to my family and I. Food was spectacular and had plenty of options even if you're a little picky! They also have a very nice playlist going in the background of acoustic music by modern artists. Overall a very fun and worthwhile experience!

    Crab Ragoons
    Michelle J.

    Walked in to this new restaurant and was greeted with a smile. Very clean and fast, friendly service. We ordered the sesame chicken, house fried rice and crab ragoons! Everything came out hot and fresh. Omg!!! It was all so GOOD! I highly recommend eating inside! Very clean and quaint. My daughter and her husband have found their go to Chinese restaurant and I will come again when I visit!

    Kung Pao

    Hard to find any good Chinese in McKinney area, have to go to East Plano. Stick to fried rice here, otherwise below average.

    Loved coming in! We have had pickup and delivery before and dine in is far superior…read more We ordered a lot of food and had plenty to take home: wide pulled beef noodz, rainbow pan fried dumplings, pepper chicken, even some brown milk tea. All delicious. And the noodles were truly the highlight of the meal. Can't wait to come back and try more of the Chinese menu! Interior is darling, so cute. Includes a patio on the Hub as well. Super fast, friendly service.

    We went around an hour before closing so our experience was overall a bit subpar…read more Ambiance is good, it's trendy and classy but we had a view of cardboard boxes from our table which threw us off. Anyways, food comes out quickly and our server was nice....though we tried calling out to five people to get us a plate and no one seemed to hear us? Ok on the actual food now. Their chili oil is fantastic, I can't recommend it enough with your dishes. Dumplings were soft, and the filling was good. We ordered these beef slices and I would not recommend personally, it left a very bitter aftertaste in our mouth. For the mains, the biang biang noodles were excellent. Very springy, soft and packed with spice. The sesame chicken was decent but I felt that the chicken pieces were too big making it hard to eat. The kung pao chicken was also good, very salty and savory but nothing extraordinary. I understand that they have to close their kitchen but they were fully mopping their floors next to us towards the end which I wasn't a fan of us. I think overall it's a decent spot but I was expecting more.

The flavors just to reiterate.... Awesome! Atmosphere and service totally outstanding, today was our second time and the person even apologized for us not getting the same booth, we were like what??? You remember that and us? Well we are sold and we found the new place for us to invite friend and have family celebrations! Maybe I can not give a Michelin Star but for sure a "Miguelin" star! Thank you all!

Addendum- for some reason my original post did not post when intended but now that I can, still going there and love it still!!!

In all honesty, we feel like they are family, almost like the show Cheers... "sometimes you want to go where every body knows your name".

Even during these times they have never tried to cut corners or even increase prices!! We love you guys and will continue supporting our local businesses!!

    THE GOOD: We both had breakfast and both enjoyed what we ordered very much. The service was…read moreexcellent. All three of the people that came by to refill coffee and water and to check on us (multiple times) were very nice. We were fortunate to arrive at the perfect time for a Saturday morning, as we would find out in just a few minutes, as we watched the wait list grow. This being our first time, we weren't sure of the seating situation. I walked to the back, where the to-go pick up was located, to find that we can sit anywhere and that someone would come and help us. We did, and they did. I suggest you stop in and give Curuba a try. Very reasonable prices, lots of menu choices, wonderful staff, oh, did I mention the coffee? I love dark roast coffee, "Just black, please". This Columbian coffee is dark, rich, smooth and flavorful with an aroma that hits the senses with every taste. If you're a dark roasted coffee fan, stop in for a cup to go. You'll be back. And even better, the coffee comes from Columbia. They purchase it from a local importer (I believe). They provided the url via QR code. We believe in the "Buy local" philosophy. It's nice to see businesses doing business with local businesses. THE BAD: It's a small restaurant. Making a reservation (Open Table) is likely a good idea. We happened to find it at a slow moment on a Saturday morning. OVERALL: We're fans. I'd love to take our friends and family for lunch, or tell them about our new find. However, there are some things better kept to oneself.

    Been wanting to try out Curuba for a while and finally made it in with a friend for lunch…read more I'd like to start by saying that the service is fantastic. The gentleman practically went over the entire menu with us which was much appreciated . We were constantly checked on and felt really welcomed. My friend got a coffee and said it was very good . We also tried the lulo and Maracuya juice . I highly recommend the lulo if you enjoy tart and sweet ( the maracuya was a bit too sweet for my liking ). We started off with the empanada sampler and Marcilla au gratin . Not big fans of the marcilla - way too much dairy . The sausage itself was good, but wouldn't get it again . Our favorite empanada was the calentao followed by the brisket. The chicken was just ok. We both agreed that our main course, the sancocho de costilla was yummy . If you're looking for a hearty soup that feels like a nice warm hug, I'd highly recommend . Overall, worth checking out . I'd come back to try other dishes and grab something from the bakery .
