    Korean cauliflower
    Elise M.

    The Korean cauliflower at Rice Is Right is just about one of the most delicious food truck foods in the history of food trucks. That sauce. That crunch. Truly so delicious. The Good Lot is a great place to enjoy an afternoon outside if the weather is nice. We also really enjoyed the mango rice pudding and dumplings. Service is a little on the slow side but that's no biggie when you're enjoying a draft beer and sitting in the sunshine. Keep making those awesome cauliflower bites, Rice Is Right! They make the world a better place!

    I previously managed events for a very large multi-family complex (read: apartment complex) and had the pleasure of working with The Rice is Right as one of our vendors for Food Truck Fridays and other such events over the past several years. As such, I also had the joy of being able to consume food from many food trucks during that time, and The Rice is Right was definitely one of my (and our residents!) favorite places to order food! My go-to order is the Korean Fried Cauliflower with Rice Cake Skewers, but there is not a single thing I tried here that I didn't enjoy. In addition to being utterly delicious, the food is freshly made, and promptly available for pick-up. As a customer, both personal and professional, I cannot recommend The Rice Is Right enough and highly (12 out of 10!) recommend checking them out! Thank you, Sang, for being an amazing vendor and for making some of the best food in Austin!

    Korean fried chicken
    Bryan M.

    Delicious food at a great price! I got the vegan egg rolls and the Korean fried chicken which came with a scoop of rice and coleslaw and was very satisfied. The chicken were cut into big chunks and had a sweet and slightly spicy sauce on them which paired perfectly with the coleslaw. The egg rolls were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Dip them in their sweet sauce and it was a perfect bite. Along with the rice, the price was also right! Definitely give The Rice is Right if they are in your area!

    Bulgogi and Korean fried chicken mixed together

    It's rare I pick up food from a place I haven't looked up on Yelp yet but being that I was in a pinch and I love going to the food truck park, I picked this food truck. Boy did I hit the jackpot considering I didn't check reviews first! Note I got two different dishes but I mixed them together so hubby and I could try both which is why it's mixed together in the pic. BULGOGI BOWL: 9/10 Flavorful and not overly salty dish. I eat Bulgogi pretty often and at some places, it can be dry, but it's moist here with the perfect amount of sauce. KOREAN CRISPY CHICKEN: 10/10 Delicious without tasting unhealthy. I don't know if there's Bonchon in Austin but this is a step up from it. Taste more authentic and fresh without too much sodium. The guy taking my order was very nice and helpful in making suggestions and he said the food would be out in 6 minutes, which I thought was very specific lol but he was right, my food was ready to go super fast. Highly recommend this place and eating at the park here because the vibe is so cool! I've been here twice in a week and looking forward to coming back!

    Stir fry
    Missy J.

    Wow is this food amazing!! We got the vegan egg rolls, fried cauliflower, stir fry and fried chicken meal. All were soooooo yummy. The fried cauliflowers a must try! We didn't expect it to be great reading it off the me you but a review said how good it was so we decided to try and and will def get it next time too! The flavor was very good. The chicken and cauliflower had the same sauce, I think, little spicy but I'm a huge wimp and enjoyed it! It was at the hedgehog brewery, another must try place. I will definitely be back!

    Korean Fried Chicken Rice Box
    Karen Q.

    I visited this food truck during an event at Austin Beerworks. They have several options for rice boxes including a vegetarian and vegan option. They also serve small bites as well. Overall, great mix of items within the rice box, the Korean fried chicken was tasty and the price was reasonable.

    Korean fried chicken with rice and gingery coleslaw
    Katie S.

    The Rice is Right is an amazing place for Korean fried chicken! The flavor of the sauce is spot on. The first time I tried it I skipped on the slaw, but I quickly realized I was missing out when I tried my husband's. The slaw is gingery, fresh, and compliments the chicken perfectly. Try the chili oil on the chicken and with the pork dumplings!

    Korean fried cauliflower rice box! Gluten free and vegetarian.

    The gluten free Korean fried cauliflower is so good! I keep driving way out of my way to come get it. I order ahead and it is so quick and easy to just pick it up and go!

    BKK Thai Street Food - Coconut Shrimp

    BKK Thai Street Food

    4.7(11 reviews)
    2.3 mi

    The most authentic Thai food in the area. My go-to has been…read morethe Pad Kra Pao and the coconut shrimp. It can run on the spicier side, but that's exactly how the dish is supposed to be made. We've been back more than a handful of times now, and it hits the spot every single time. The service is great and the location is peaceful which is perfect for enjoying a meal outdoors with friends.

    I have been wanting to try BKK FOOD TRUCK for quite some time. Since it has been a dismal rainy day…read more-I decided to give it a try. I ordered an appetizer as well as 3 main course dishes since there was 3 of us here for dinner. I ordered Fried Tofu with Peanut Sauce. I must say I've been searching for the texture and flavor of the same dish that I ordered in Houston a few years ago. I've ordered it numerous times but never found one that duplicated what I remember as so very tasty. Well-this time I hit the jackpot!!! It was the exact taste and texture with the perfect peanut sauce accompanying it. It was fantastic!! One of the entre'es was Pineapple Curry. I chose Shrimp as my protein for an up-charge. It came with a good quantity of white rice. It didn't denote a spice level but when I dug into it -there were some beautiful shrimp swimming in a red curry. I felt it likely it would have some heat and it did. The heat came at the back of my tongue but curiously it tasted so good I couldn't stop eating it!!! It had some grape tomatoes (I think) cooked in it. I didn't care for the flavor of those -?over ripe?- There were a small quantity so I didn't let it stop me. I did take frequent sips of my cold drink in between my bites. The second entre'e was Fried Rice with scrambled egg and peas&carrots&onion. My son chose Chicken Breast as his protein. He doesn't eat veggies so I requested they didn't add them. When we examined the dish they had indeed removed them. He was very impressed and said it was delicious. The 3rd dish was Drunken Spicy Noodles -which was made with Thai Basil and Peppers. I requested the Thai Basil and Peppers be held and advised we wanted no heat in that dish. My husband doesn't tolerate any spice-even black pepper. His dish looked lovely with sauce covered noodles and lots of thinly sliced beef on top. I served it up. Sadly, he immediately advised me it was too spicy for him. I took a piece of broccoli & a small piece of beef and sure enough when I ate it there was enough spice that my tongue and mouth got hot & numb from the spice level. It was actually too much heat for me too. I actually looked at the ticket for the order that was attached to the bag and it clearly had indicated no heat, no peppers and no spice for that last dish. I did withhold a star due to that. It was evident that our food was prepared and served hot as it was still quite warm when it was delivered. I felt that indicated good service. I can't really speak to the setting, I am familiar with that area of food trucks, but since we had delivery, it really didn't apply. I definitely would try BKK again, but next time in person as I feel like you can't clearly communicate in an online order regarding specificity to your requirements for your food.
