Braised Lamb Platter (C)
Elita K.

I was hesitant to come here for lunch because $20 seemed a bit steep for a bowl but honey, it was worth every penny. I used to order from Rice in the past when I worked on Brickell but I don't remember it ever being this good. This place knocked it out of the park: immaculately clean, great service, fresh and FLAVORFUL food. Even the value bowl is generous and more than enough to fuel you through your work day. And that braised lamb???! Worth every penny of the upgrade.

I love this place downnnnnn the food is always so good and fresh and flavorful also always running deals on Uber Eats so I frequent here a lot lot 10/10

Value Bowl
Bisan A.

Rice is one of my favorite fast-casual restaurants. It offers good, flavorful, clean food. This time around, I got the value bowl with a scoop of protein. For my bases, I got basmati rice and greens, a scoop of braised beef, tomato sriracha hummus, feta, and sumac, and some other toppings like onions and cabbage. Everything tasted fresh and was filled with flavor. Nothing else to really say. Great as always!

This is like a chipotle of Mediterranean food but in a good way. Their service is fast and portions are large. You can keep it healthy with the options you choose. Good when you are on the boulevard without wanting to pay the touristy prices. The place is quite roomy with plenty of tables. Restrooms are clean and well maintained. No parking onsite but there are garages near by.

Chicken & Pollo Bowl (Gluten Free)

I walked right into this business and got my order very quickly. Staff were friendly this time. There are many places to sit inside. This is a quick service restaurant. However, you can tell everything is very fresh. So many healthy options. I got the chicken bowl and wow, I'm blown away. It's so tasty. The vibe here is casual but comforting. There are also places to sit outside. The location is great! I'll definitely be back.

I really wish there was a location closer to where I live in Plantation! I was in the area and needed to grab dinner before going home. While browsing food options I saw Rice was nearby in Las Olas and I could place an order online! Parking Tip: I parked at the Las Olas City Centre Garage, and drove to the side of the building closer to E Las Olas Blvd and made my way down the side stairs. Directly across the street is YOLO and just a few feet to the right from the stairwell exit is Rice! To get back to the garage, enter the lobby around the corner and head to the elevators on the right. There is a desk attendant if you get lost. This location is beautiful and well-designed giving it a fresh vibe. My meal was being packed when I walked in and I waited a few minutes which gave me the chance to snap some pics. I got the vegetarian bowl with falafel, roasted veggies and black lentils. It was so satisfying, filling, and delicious. I crave these bowls every so often and I know if there was a location closer to me I would have one at least once a week! Very affordable price as well. If you are looking for an alternative to the typical mixed veg and grain bowl, give Rice a try, I promise you'll love it.

Horrible Do Not recommend for group orders at all! My office did a order almost $500 and not only did they leave out an entire order upon delivery but they falsely advertised the chicken breast and when I went to exchange or get something else they completely denied. I asked for store manager and they said there is NO MANAGEMENT at this location. So the staff is pretty much making their own rules and bias discretion on who/which customers get quality customer service. I'm very disappointed with this place as they are reputable but this location is a flop.

Rice is a nice addition to the area, particularly when you're in the mood for a casual but delicious meal. You order at the counter from a variety of platters, bowls and salads. The build your own bowl options are great--the braised beef was delicious and I really enjoyed the whipped honey feta. I would suggest getting the basic bowl and adding one protein, as it was plenty of food. My husband ordered a platter, and he ended up bringing much of it home. The portions are very large!

5/5 fast casual in Downtown Fort Lauderdale I got here on a Tuesday after work, a time when most restaurants are completely desolate, but even then Rice Mediterranean kitchen felt quite welcoming. As soon as you walk in you can see the menu at the top, which is key for fast casual restaurants to facilitate service. Pick a bowl, a salad, the like. The service was kind and attentive - even though we were interrupting the quiet time at the restaurant they immediately shifted to taking our order. The real kicker is the food. If a fast casual spot can't serve fresh food fast that also quickly leaves an impression it's beyond saving. Rice Mediterranean passes the test by a wide margin with a generous selection of ingredients for every custom bow, alongside serving typical Mediterranean dishes like Falafel, Kubideh, Chenjeh. Their assortment of toppings and sauces is sure to keep you coming back to try all the combinations as well.

Not many people are familiar with Iranian food, and that's unfortunate. Iranian food is very…read moredelicious and it is in its own category. It is not Indian, Lebanese, or Turkish, but something in-between. If you like to try different food and flavors, you must try it, and the best place to try authentic Iranian food is Kuluck. From the ambiance to the staff to the service, it is second to none. But most importantly, you have to go there for the flavors. You can try kebab over rice (definitely get Kubideh or beef kebab I think is on the menu), or if you want more of a comfort food, try one of the stews. Ghormeh Sabzi (Beef & Green Herb Stew) is a must for a first timer, then you can try Gheyme (Yellow Split Pea Stew), Bedemjoon (Eggplant), and Fesenjoon (Chicken Pomegranate Stew) I can't name everything you must try. Start from the top of the menu and move down in every visit, or I guess alphabet order is another option I promise you won't be disappointed

If you like Persian food, I recommend you give this restaurant a visit

Service was friendly, attentive, and helpful with recommendations on the menu. It appears they used to have a buffet but no longer and that is sad. It was also unfortunate that the one dish we were hoping to try, tahdig, they were out of. The grape leaves were standard good. The "bread" basket they put on the table seemed never ending. It was just layers and layer of thin tasty bread/pita type. I was torn between two of the stews and asked which the waiter recommended. Without hesitation he said the ghormeh sabzi, so that is what I ordered. It did not disappoint. I couldn't exact describe or compare it to something else, but here's what it says on the menu: Traditional Vegetable Stew Made with Fresh Chopped Parsley, Cilantro, Chives, Fenurgreek and Chunks of Beef and seasoned with a blend of Dried Persian Limes It was different and tasty and definitely something I would order again. The chicken kabobs were juicy and plump and flavorful in a very simple way. They have a small store attached through a door in the restaurant where you can find many Persian food, spices, teas, coffees, and treats. Looking forward to coming back to this restaurant.

We started with the Baba Ghanouj which was out of this world, The garlic yogurt (I think) and pickled vegies made it that much more special. I had the lamb Shish Kabob and my friend had Chicken Kabab both with kabsa rice and we both loved it. The kabsa rice was so tasty and aromatic, loved the cardamon. The portions were very generous, enough that we had enough for dinner the next night. What topped the dinner was the fresh baklava, so many delicious varieties. We bought a lot to take home. The young man who waited on us was so friendly and accommodating, and had a wonderful smile. Service was impeccable and we had a few nice discussions of language and culture. Once again young man, welcome to America. We will now be regulars. What a gem!

Inside the style is middle eastern art and decor. They have a large menu and lunch specials are available durning weekdays. Everything that I had tasted fresh and delicious. The complimentary pickled vegetables and pita was a nice touch. For food we decided on the Shishbarak, which is an interesting combination of meat dumplings, in a creamy yogurt sauce. The Shishbarak is a very hearty dish that has a cozy warm texture. The vegetarian sampler is mix of many of the traditional favorites. However, the standouts are definitely the grape-leaves, and the babbaganou Service was good but they only had one person that was working the register, waiting tables, and bussing food. They could definitely use extra wait staff during restaurant peak hours. Make sure you leave room for dessert! The desserts are delicious especially the baklava.

There are about 10 tables but you don't feel cramped at all. Erik our waiter was fantastic, when he heard it was our first time there he was really helpful as far as suggesting what dishes to order and explain all the different sauces they had. We decided to get the hummus and the Barg Sultani platter which included a skewer of filet mignon and a beef and lamb skewer. You can either have rice, salad or half and half of each which is what we opted for. We also got a Chenjeh skewer which is marinated beef tenderloin chunks. The hummus was fantastic! It was so flavorful and it was served with a delicious thin bread that reminded me of a tortilla. My hubby that really doesn't care for hummus couldn't get enough of it. The meats were so tender, like melt in your mouth tender. It was delicious trying the different sauces with them. The sauces included a spicy Miami Heat, garlic cilantro, garlic sauce and sumac sauce and a yogurt sauce that reminded me of tzatziki sauce. I'd say that out of the three the beef tenderloin chunks were my favorite with the filet mignon coming in a close second. The rice and salad were the perfect sides. The restaurant was spotlessly clean and as I mentioned, Erik was an amazing server. Jennifer helped out as well and we also got the chance to speak with the manager, Robbie. Great staff that made our restaurant experience even better. The only downside is I feel the prices for the platters were a bit expensive. It's not a dealbreaker though and we will definitely be back!

It was really flavorful, and we finished it wanting more. For our entrees, we had the Lamb Chops and the Seafood Tagine. The lamb chops were great.
