They say food tastes better when your really hungry but yikes... I wouldn't feed this to my dog. Extremely disappointed. Food was all soggy, bland and expensive for the quality.

These are fantastic, generous people and the food is good. They were not on the list of choices for evacuees that were given vouchers by the BC Government, but went ahead and showed generosity without being asked and when they did not have to. Made us choke up with tears.

Terrible food here! I ordered the ginger beef and it was the toughest, blandest meat I’ve ever had. My wife ordered the soup and it was awful too. Had more sodium than instant noodles. Do not order from

We had a craving for Chinese food and decided to try The Ricebox take-out on our drive home. When we got home and tasted the order it was such a disappointment. We decided on 2 Single combos at $16.50 each, which included Chicken Chowmein and rice, with the option of selecting one other side. We picked Almond Chicken and Crispy Pork which had a few stir fried veggies. There was so much sauce on the Chicken Chowmein that the Almond Chicken and Crispy Pork turned soggy. The sauce was unlike any Chowmein we’ve had…it was a starchy brown gravy, a bit of ginger along with something that tasted like the oil from frying fish. It gave the chicken Chowmein a very fishy flavour profile. The noodles were soggy with very few pieces of chicken and only a few scraps of cabbage and no other veggies in the chowmein. The service was friendly and we received our order promptly but we won’t be back for another meal.

This is my number 1 go-to for gluten-free Chinese food! Handy tips: they can sub the beef and broccoli sauce for the gluten-free black bean sauce. Truly excellent!

Today was our first time trying The rice box, and we will not be going back. Chinese food from the mall is better. Everything was bland and looked like it was from the frozen food section at the grocery store. Save your money and go to the mall instead for low quality food.

Amazing food and staff! My friend and I locked ourselves out of our car and they helped us greatly! Thanks April, Kim and may!

Service was good but the food was terrible. Chow mein was dry and bland. Sweet and sour pork was just overcooked and chewy bits of meat drowned in pineapple juice. Definitely not worthy of the tip I left.

We ordered online and we're impressed! Everything was delivered hot, and not soggy, or spilled. The delivery girl was super nice, very respectful even though she had trouble finding our address. Will be

I ordered the Spicy Basil special with the beef option for meat, and there was no meat in it, only vegetables and rice. I was really disappointed when I got home and found out. I was exhausted so I really didn't want to go back to the store to resolve it. So I just ate it and went to bed. Maybe I just won't buy food here anymore. Because it would be inconvenient to open the box and check in the car if I got what I ordered before I drive home.
