Interesting. I got the house special, if you will. Katzu chicken with a sweet brown sauce on a very different type of rice based roll. Got the house fries, as well.The chicken was great; pounded evenly thin, breaded beautifully and cooked perfectly. The sweet brown sauce was okay. The bun/roll was perplexing. I've eaten lots of rice based bread products and this was definitely new. All I could think of was like 'gelatin bread.' It was cooked and firm-ish, but had a mouth feel that I didn't enjoy.The fries were shoestring style and were also cooked perfectly. The house style seasoning was also interesting; definitely a little sweet for me. I'm guessing that the fries are coated in curry powder, dried seaweed and maybe sesame? It was sweet!The presentation in a lunch box was nice; there were holes cut to allow steam to escape, so your food doesn't get wet.I'd return but would try different items.

The pop corn chicken is amazing. We got a small but it was more than enough for 2 ppl to share. The gochujang sauce that comes with the bowls is more on the sweeter side than spicy so if you have a low spice tolerance I think you can handle it.Parking: Meters are $0.25 per 30 minutes.

This is a fun place for a different take on traditional Asian street food. Really enjoyed the bulgogi steak and salt and pepper chicken.Vegetarian options: Let's of options to make things vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: Went with a friend who has celiac disease. They were incredibly responsive and careful with his gluten free needs.Parking: A bunch of metered street parking. And a large public lot next to the building.Kid-friendliness: Lots of different options that would be good for kids. In a fun atmosphere.

My wife and I came here for a quick bite so we got the Bulgogi Steak Rice Burger and the Popcorn Chicken (Large). Prices were alright with the burger at $11.50 and chicken at $9.The burger was tasty and the sauce was just enough where it wasn't a mess or made the rice bun soggy. The popcorn chicken was a bit dry and didn't come with any sauce. I tried the duck sauce but didn't go well together. Ended up taking bites of the chicken with the burger for the sauce.The place was full of teens when we went. Decor is bright and modern. Food came out pretty fast and was brought to our table.

This place has the best Boba I've ever had in my life! First, the food is amazing even if you don't get Boba you should try the food the negative thing about the food I didn't mean like the rice burger, but I hadn't had it in so long. The service is amazing when I finished ordering they already finished my boba. If you are in the area you should go here it is the best!

Hot dang these burgers are yummy. They're kinda the best, esp the chicken katsu. But whatever you get, the house seasoned fries are AMAZING!

Try the fries! Best fries in the area. Thin, crispy perfectly seasoned. Bubble tea is good. Bowls are full of flavor.

Food was amazing! I adhere to the blood type diet outlined by Dr. D'Adamo and Courtney White in their book, "Eat Right 4 Your Type", and it is hard to find fast food that can fulfill these diet requirements. But this place did it (I think) thanks to the rice buns (for the most part; I didn't ask about the other ingredients but I will be coming back to find out anyway).Service was wonderful -- always happy to see young, competent ladies working professional services of some sort. Especially because I am an alum, I like to wonder whether these are current Wellesley College students which makes me all the more inclined to continue investing in this food joint.Atmosphere is nice for the most part, but obviously because of its high quality food and customer service, the place is quite popular and crowded during lunch hours. I think next time I will order it to go and eat in the park or something because the seating is a little too close for my taste.Will be coming back. Thank you!Dietary restrictions: Not perfect for the blood type diet if you are type O but probably 1000x better than choosing McDonalds or Burger King if you really want to eat out.

the bubble tea at rice burg is underrated! at first, i hesitated on getting bubble, but turns out it was worth it! i got the lychee tea with popping bubbles. it tasted just as good as other bubble tea chains, and had the perfect sweetness. rice burg is perfect for a quick lunch or drink - i was in and out within 5 minutes. street parking is available right in front of the restaurant. next time i definitely want to try out their rice burgers. i'm interested in seeing what the hype is all about! overall rating: 10/10

This was my first time having a rice burger and it was pretty good. I ordered a chicken katsu rice burger, bulgogi steak rice burger, house fries, and salted cream black tea. The rice bun itself did not have much flavor. I did wish the sauce was more evenly distributed and that there was more of it on the chicken katsu. I would have been nice if the chicken was tossed in the sauce. The way it was packaged all the sauce fell to the bottom as well. The bulgogi in the bulgogi rice burger had more flavor on each piece of meat. Both rice burgers were decent, although I do wish there was more sauce on both.The fries were nice and crispy and the flavor was great as well. The seasoning could have been distributed a bit more evenly, but flavor was great! The salted cream black tea was really good! It was a very good price as well. Only $3.90 for a medium (note: boba would cost an additional $1 extra). The service was great and ambiance was good as well. They do have a bathroom. The menu also has vegetarian options!
