It's great that we have a Laotian eatery in Albuquerque. However, there isn't much for vegetarians…read moreto eat. Drink-wise, I got the highlighted signature Coco mango shake with oat milk (whole milk in the original) and that was good. The boba was tasty but undercooked. The rice boxes don't have a tofu or other non-meat option unfortunately. The vegetarian spring rolls are nicely crispy but bland without much vegetables in them. The papaya salad has fish sauce. I got the pandan mango sticky rice. The color is really fun and the rice is pretty tasty and cooked nicely. The mango is underripe. I would have liked more coconut milk and had it somewhat soaked into the rice.

Third time trying rice box. The first time was great! Food was great and it was clean, but that may…read morebe because it was only opened a few weeks. The 2nd time, service was okay and food was okay. The chicken wings were tiny, they were more like nuggets. The place was dirty and so were restrooms. The 3rd- service was ok (rude younger girl but polite younger guy), food was fair but it took a long time to come out. They were also out of most food and it was only 3:00. The place was dirty, we cleaned our own table with wipes we had. The restroom was disgusting!!! There was pee all over the floor, poop, and blood in places it shouldn't be and the sink was filthy. I took pictures but decided not to post them because the restroom was disgusting! We had high hopes for this place and gave it 3 chances, but we will not be back.

Grabbed some new years eve dinner here. The place was empty when we showed up, but a few tables…read morefilled by the time we were leaving. What I loved here: Big portions, their rolls are masssive Ginger tea (a whole lot for $3) Great staff, attentive and friendly The tom kha soup!!

Did not disappoint....great Saturday lunch spot , college football and Sushi!!! Can't go wrong!!!…read moreDelicious and delightful!!

The restaurant is extremely clean! When you walk in the door, every table is set beautifully and…read morethe atmosphere feels very warm and inviting for being a smaller restaurant tucked away by the exit doors ofthe Talin market. Each member of the staff that I encountered was just as nice as the previous. Very welcoming and greeted us with a smile. Their prices are reasonable, and the food was absolutely fresh. They used white meat chicken in my drunken noodles, and their green curry with chicken was absolutely delicious ! You will be very happy that you tried this restaurant because it is probably one of Albuquerque's best kept secrets !

Ordered the drunken noodles. They add a variety of vegetables including water chestnuts, broccoli,…read morebaby corn, and carrots. I really disliked the amount of water chestnuts in it and they added cilantro which gave it a different flavor than what I'm used to. I also got the Thai tea but it was too sweet. $23 including tip. The staff were friendly and my order was ready in 10 min. Update 2/17: ended up getting food poisoning :(

I've been a regular this for a while now, but I haven't left a review. Sorry!…read more Viet Rice is my go-to comfort food when I'm not feeling quite right. The Pho is The perfect comfort food when you're feeling just a little under the weather. It's hardy, nutritious, and a great pick me up! The broken rice with chicken, even better! I regularly order to go. I don't think I've ever stayed to eat. So I don't know what it's like in the restaurant. But the food you get in a to-go order, fantastic!

Tonight, my wife and I went to Viet Rice for the first time. They've been there for several years,…read morebut we have never gone. After this experience, I can honestly say that we have missed out for a long time. I had their Egg Noodle bowl, with port. Oh, WOW, yummy!!! It had some wonderful season and made it a delight to eat. My wife had their Clay Pot which is a rice dish. It was also very delicious. And the clay pot really kept the dish hot!! The service was wonderful. They came by multiple times to see how we were doing, how we were enjoying the food, etc. We went on a Tuesday, so it was a quiet night. It was very pleasant. I don't know what kind of music they were playing, but I really liked it. Kind of oriental, but modern. We will return as this is a wonderful experience!

I grew up ocean adjacent and so I admittedly have a difficult time with rating sushi restaurants…read morethat are located absolutely no where near an ocean. That's my bias. Sushiya is my goto for sushi in Albuquerque. It is consistently good, or it has been for me over the past six years. The food has always tasted fresh and they make a nice variety of rolls. I also frequent this restaurant with people who are NOT seafood or sushi fans by any means. So they have a nice variety of foods that are not sushi. In terms of the food, I'd always recommend it to anyone looking for good sushi. As for the service, which in my opinion separates the good from bad, it has been consistently good for six years. The service is always friendly. They are attentive and they anticipate your needs. This is a mom and pop place. I remember spending my days at my dad's bakery and coffee shop when I was young. Interacting with the customers and watching the place operate. Well, Sushiya reminds me of those times because they have their boy there who gets to do the same thing. So it's a nostalgic family and personal experience for me. It sets the ambience of the restaurant. People are friendly and you feel comfortable there. Overall, Sushiya has good service, it's family owned and operated. You just can't beat that! It's people who are passionate about their business. You know they care because they have skin in the game. This all shows at Sushiya. So go, check it out! Are you going to be blown away like Marty McFly by the food? Maybe not. But, you'll be comfortable, in a nice friendly environment and feel at home. Smiling people good food, affordable, and worth it!

We stopped by Asian Noodle Bar in downtown Albuquerque and ordered a little bit of everything to…read moretry. Overall it was a really solid meal with fresh flavors and generous portions. We started with miso soup, which was warm, light, and comforting with plenty of seaweed and green onion. It was a great way to start the meal. Next we shared a sushi roll, which was nicely presented and topped with sesame seeds. The roll had a good mix of avocado and crunchy filling, and it came with the classic ginger and wasabi on the side. For the main dishes, we ordered pad thai and a tofu vegetable noodle soup. The pad thai had soft rice noodles, bean sprouts, egg, and green onions, plus a big pile of crushed peanuts for extra texture and flavor. It was savory, slightly sweet, and really satisfying. The tofu vegetable noodle soup was packed with broccoli, mushrooms, and tofu in a rich, dark broth. It was hearty and flavorful, and the broth had a deep savory taste that made it feel like a comforting bowl of ramen. Everything came out hot, fresh, and filling. The portions were generous and it felt like a great casual spot to grab noodles downtown. If you're looking for comforting Asian noodle dishes in downtown Albuquerque, this place is definitely worth checking out!

It had a great ambiance from my short stop inside. I ordered chicken pho and it was nice although it wasn't as flavorful or aromatic as other phos I've tried. I added the sriracha and hoisin and that added to the flavor! Overall a pretty solid pho and a good portion.
