I came here for the Uber Eats deal and it was so good. I felt like everything about this meal was amazing and the fact that they give you different sauces and hummus and the chicken and the rice and they have that buy one get one free deal makes it so worth it. The service was absolutely amazing. The food was ready and prepared when I got there, and there was so much seating and ample space inside, and I felt like it was very good location with it in a walk ability of so many different places. read more

This review is solely based off of Doordash $12 meals experience. Rice Mediterranean Kitchen offers via Doordash $12 meals which include salad, Hummus, pita, rice and your choice of meat (braised brisket, chicken, spicy chicken, or falafel). We opted for the braised brisket and the regular chicken. I also added an order of falafel. Pick up was super easy. I showed up early before they opened up for service and they were just cranking out plenty of Doordash orders. The ambiance was organized chaos. They definitely have a system down packed. For the $12, I feel you get a good value. Both the chicken and braised brisket were moist and everything else tasted very fresh. It also comes with Sumac sauce which adds a nice zing to the meal. My only drawback would be on the falafels. They seemed a little dry to me but I'm no falafel expert by any means so maybe that's how they usually are. Highly recommend Rice as a good value option for Doordash especially for the $12 meal deal. read more

My husband and I came here on our first night in Coral Gables. We love Mediterranean food and didn't want to deal with finding a sit down restaurant so when we found this fast-casual spot with great reviews we decided to give it a shot! We pretty much had the place to ourselves since it was later at night but it seemed like they were getting a bunch of take out orders. The lady was incredibly helpful with creating our custom meals and everything tasted so fresh! I loved how you get so much food and so many choices for a great price. I felt full afterwards and also felt productive because it was healthy too. This place is absolutely worth it! It's in a beautiful location! read more

I checked out this Mediterranean spot and loved everything about it! The chicken was juicy and grilled (a little on the burnt side on the end of the chicken but it was still good and the braised steak was so tender and full of flavor--it just melted in my mouth. The sauces were amazing too--super tasty and added the perfect touch to every bite. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. Can't wait to come back for more! read more

This restaurant is great for building your own meal. From the different types of rice, to hummus, veggies, to chicken, meat and sauces. I definitely recommend this place if you want to have a good mediterranean meal with either family or friends. There's a set menu and a build your own option. The lady serving us was very nice advising how to build our own bowl. The atmosphere good and the music not loud at all. There's paid street parking. read more

I've been ordering Rice from Uber Eats for about 6 months. This is the second time I select their BOGO free meal and they only make 1 meal. The first time this happened, Rice said I needed to complain to uber. So I did, only to be left with no solution by Uber. This second and last time this happened, I called uber right away, with the same result. I went over to the Coral Gables Rice, and asked them if this has happened to others. They replied yes, like it's a very common thing. I asked to speak with their manager, but they were off duty. I asked, if uber isn't taking responsibility, and the establishment is using uber to make sales, but knowingly defrauding customers, who should take responsibility? They kind of shrugged and said that it's Ubers fault. In conclusion, I'd say uber probably has more fault, but Rice knowingly continues to promote this BOGO and not deliver on their part. I never leave a review, but this was one of the times I have to let others know about how to avoid getting duped. read more

Went in for the first time and saw they offered kabob fries which was your choice of meat or falafel, fries, and a salad. It was on the menu and when I asked for it they said fries would be a separate item and extra cost. It seemed like the person taking my order was confused with the menu options even after I tried pointing to it on the menu. She still gave me the regular platter and at that point I realized I was not going to be able to order what I wanted after attempting several times. The food itself was very good though. If I try this spot again I will definitely order online instead to avoid any confusion during the ordering process. read more

Looking for a quick Medi Bite look no further! RICE never disappoints with their chicken platter, rice and salad!

Rice is a great spot to grab a quick and delish meal in the gables. My coworkers recommend it and it did not disappoint. They have the option to make your own bowl and add as many toppings as you want, which I enjoy because I get to mix and match different items. The service was friendly and will be adding it to my go to lunch spots! read more

This place is very similar to Cava, which I'm very much addicted to. This is why I gravitated to them. Nice note for the other cava addicts. As it relates to service, the line moved very quickly. The prices are fairly decent given the area ($15.70). Lastly, but most importantly it was nutritious, very palatable, and satisfying ie good option for a quick lunch any day. read more

I am giving this place one star because the customer service was extremely poor. The food itself was okay, but the service ruined the experience. I ordered a falafel plate, but the person taking my order insisted that I had ordered chicken instead. I corrected him three times and clearly stated that I wanted falafel, not chicken. Despite that, I was still served a chicken plate. When I pointed out the mistake, they initially argued that I had ordered chicken. Eventually they agreed to replace it with falafel, but the whole interaction felt unnecessary and frustrating. A simple correction without the argument would have made a big difference. read more

Terrible service and always delayed. My order was more than 30 minutes late and it was a pickup. Awful and not coming back. Top it off they lost my order. read more

One of the best Mediterranean food I've ever had Specially their chicken is so juicy and tender. I highly recommend this place.

Very good portion, clean and happy staff and good character. Ambiance/decoration is pretty

The service and food at RICE are great! The prices are fair. Yanelis is friendly and serves us with care and attention to give us a fresh and nice portion. The AC inside the restaurant needs to be adjusted. It's always warm so sometimes we have to eat outdoors. You can eat a fresh and tasty meal at RICE! read more

This is one of my favorite lunch and dinner places. Not very expensive. Food is tasty, and filling. I usually get a bowl with double veggies the bowl Portions are good. I've also tried the chicken and steak kebabs these portions I find are too small especially for the price. I've also had the lentil soup which is also good. read more

Instead of shouting on social media or posting online, I reached out to Rice Headquarters- never heard a word except a defaulted "THANKS for reaching out" response. Met my siblings here in Coral Gables, had not been together before the restaurant, but we all 4 became sick right after eating. Within 2 hours, we all four were really sick, which lasted about 5 hours. I went into great detail and took my time to sleet corporate of a possible issue- no reply. Not only did we get sick but the total non caring attitude, has all of us doubting our loyalty to the kitchen. so many good companies out there, where customers matter. touché read more

I been frequenting Rice well before the re-branding, when it was known as Rice: House of Kabob, and have witnessed their growth across the metro area. Referring to the Coral Gables site, this place has good Persian food and is located at a nice spot along Giralda Avenue. However, all it takes is for one action to tarnish years of patronage. That action was taken by an employee at this locale, which completely took away any interest whatsoever in this place that offended me so greatly that I would not eat there, even if I were given whatever I wanted for free. On Friday, April 19, 2024, I went to buy lunch at Rice that consisted of a vegetable soup. I ordered the soup and I got it, but I got not even a spoon to accompany it. So I asked the woman on-duty if I could have a spoon and a piece of bread to accompany my soup. She looked at me as though I were asking her for a free meal and said no, that if I wanted any bread, no matter how small, then I needed to pay for it. This raises a bigger question of where are we as a society? A successful restaurant raking in big-time is so petty and miserly so as not to even give a piece of bread for a soup. Every venue I have been to that sells soup offers either bread or crackers of some kind to use as a dip. The fact I asked for a small piece or two to accompany my soup, really is degrading enough as it is. To be told by this employee that she couldn't give even that and that I needed to buy an entire pita bread round is offsetting. I have seen a lot of parsimonious actions done by restaurants and eateries but this by far takes frugality to the next level. Naturally, this ordeal took away any appetite I had that day and caused me to not enjoy this soup. I will never visit this location again because I do not want to spend my hard-earned money at a place where people think as selfishly as this. The action of this woman is shameful and really paints a negative picture of this location, and the other sites owned by Rice. read more

Can't give a full 5 stars bc i ordered it for delivery on Uber eats. Therefore, I'm not sure what the service/environment is like. However, ordered the chicken and rice with added avocado. Once i opened the box, i realized the ratio of chicken to basmati rice was not split evenly. I wish there was more chicken so beware. I did not get any sauces because the flavor alone was good but you might want to add salt on the rice! Overall, the food was fresh and i have no complaints. I would order again and order kebabs with the cucumber tomato salad (i forgot the name). read more

Very clean and light eating but the serving size is plenty. I ordered the sirloin kabob and it came with rice but I had the option of putting salad with it.. The meal was satisfying but I didn't feel heavy after. I wish they had drink machines vs having to select from bottled products but that's no complaint..just a wish.. read more

They let us try samples of things we weren't sure of and were very kind. The prices are great considering how much food you get. Our meals were huge! Everything tasted great and we left full and happy. Highly recommend Rice! read more

2nd update! WOW. They asked me to delete my bad review, the one mentioning mold.. When I didn't delete the reviews, they deactivated the gift card!!!!!!! So not only does this place gladly sell molding food, they try to force you into keeping quiet by ONLY offering a partial refund if I remove the reviews FIRST! I can't believe instead of saying "try our food again and then maybe you'll change your review" they really said "since you won't delete your review, we're taking back the $40 gift card." What a SHADY business. Do not trust them with your money or health. HORRRRRRIBLE UPDATE: so they contacted me, ignored me for 7 days, then sent a $40 gift card and demanded I remove my reviews..... talk about UNETHICAL AND SHADY BUSINESS!!!!!! PHOTOS ATTACHED. They even sent me the link to one I could vomit, literally. I spent over $100 on food for it to all arrive with a MOLDY container of hummus. I don't know about you, but I'm not eating anything that came in the same bag as that, and unfortunately all the food was in 1 bag. I called them 3 times, no answer after ten minutes each time. Absolutely pathetic restaurant. If you're prefilling your hummus then PLEASE MAKE SURE ITS NOT MOLDING. Disgusting. read more

TLDR: a Mediterranean twist on the bowl concept. ___ I used to go to RICE about once a week when I lived in Miami. Back then they were only doing kabobs and while a bit pricy they were so amazing! They've shifted the concept and expanded and while the kabobs are incredible, the Bowls are also great. You can still get kabobs and I recommend them for sure. But the customization and ease of the bowls can't be beat. You start with a base, protein, toppings, hummus and finally sauces. I went with: Rice Beef Veggies (tomato, onions, cucumbers) Sauces (go with their homemade cream based sauce) Hummus (had a carrot one and regular) The bowls are huge and filling. I couldn't finish mine. Overall it's some great tasting food and you can come often and always try something new because of the hundreds of combinations you can make. read more

This restaurant is just fine. A few things I really don't like 1) no tap/ice water available. 2) weird setup where one kind of food is offered to the left (bowls) and the other to the right (plates). Rice was excellent. Sirloin kebab was super disappointing. Oily and generally flavorless. Chicken Kebob was nice, as was the hummus. The biggest issue is just the "vibe" the place feels weird and has too much competition in the area to be so unfriendly and uninviting. read more

Simply put: a fast-casual dream come true. Besides the fact that the location is spacious and beautiful, the food is genuinely REAL good. Previously the House of Kebabs, the new revamp situated this restaurant perfectly into the modern age of convenience. The build-your-own style we all know and love meets delicious Mediterranean food. Walking up to the counter you can tell the options are plentiful! First stop is the base; wraps, grains, or greens. Next up the spreads; my favorite is the honey nut feta, but ranges from hummus to baba ghanoush to carrot tahini. But don't worry you can pick up to three scoops. Now for the best part, the protein. My favorite go-to proteins are the roasted vegetables (which are actually SOOOOOO good) and the spicy chicken. But to be completely honest, it's all amazing. The beef, lamb, falafel -- no matter what you get, you won't regret it. And lastly, the TOPPINGS. As many as you want! Chickpeas, tomatoes, olives, onions, amongst others. And the sauces/dressings, oh man. Go for the spicy sumac, it's by far the best one. This is definitely a local lunch favorite. You can expect it be pretty busy from 12-2pm on weekdays. Best part is the price is also cheap for the amount of quality food you get. Located on the popular giralda strip, make sure to pass by! read more

Rice Mediterranean Kitchen - Build You Own Grain Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Coral Gables, Florida

Perfect food every time. Pierre is great at the front very personable . Always fresh tasting great flavors

Great food served fresh. Healthy Mediterranean options, so you can't go wrong. They need to add a soda fountain.

Rice is where your bowl dreams come true. Who doesn't love a good bowl of deliciousness filled with a creation that's unique to them? This is a fast casual spot that doesn't skimp on flavor. You can select your kind of bowl- grain, greens or my personal fave greens & grains! I love the basmati rice but there are other grain options as well. Next up, pick your spreads- from hummus to baba ghanoush to sumac - there's something for any flavor profile. Then you select your protein- I love that all options are the same price (except for lamb, that's $2 extra). After that you can add AS MANY TOPPINGS AS YOU WANT. This is where the bowl really comes to life as you can add all the veggies you desire and finish with one of their dressings. My favorite is spicy sumac. The loaded bowl comes out to $12. This is a great price for the portion, and honestly you can make two meals out of this one serving. You can also try a pita instead of a bowl, but I have never been ever to stray from creating my own bowl. This location features stubborn sodas as well as local craft beer and wine, too. Super spacious and very clean location on giralda. read more

Came to the area to see the Umbrella Sky Project but left craving more food from here! First of all, the service was amazing! Andrea was the person that assisted us while choosing what to put in our bowls & she provided the best customer service I've ever had. Seriously. I've never really had much Mediterranean food before so the dipping sauces, protein, toppings, & finishing sauces were all so foreign to me. She let us sample anything we wanted & even offered her personal favs. Everything was amazing, I actually had a hard time choosing. Her help was much appreciated & good service makes such a difference in a dining experience so thank you, Andrea! Now with all the choices, sometimes putting a bunch of our favorite things together doesn't mean that it's going to taste amazing. BUT this was the one instance it did. I had the hummus, carrot tahini (I think it's called) & the Greek yogurt sauce. I had half brown rice & half artisan salad. The slow roasted chicken. Then topped it with some cucumbers, onions, & cabbage. This was all in a bowl and it was DELICIOUS. I had two extra sauces on the side but I didn't even need them. The dipping sauces provided more than enough flavor. To top it all off, I loved the aesthetic of the place. Very modern with the great touch of the community table underneath a display of Edison bulbs. I loved it & I seriously can't wait to come back. read more
