Rich’s Cafe is an absolute gem! From the moment you step-in, you’re greeted with warm smiles from Sunny and her husband, and the smell of delicious hot paninis and Korean dishes. My to-go menu are the mambo sandwich (has a spicy kick), bulgogi bowl (marinated Korean beef with veggies on rice), and bibimbap (rice with seasoned veggies and protein). They open early and the breakfast menu is great as well!
Oh my gosh!Rich's is hidden away but it has some of the BEST sandwiches I've ever had.I had a tuna wrap and my friend had a Manhattan (sandwich).It was good enough to stop conversation.WOW!If you're in the area or especially at the Metro station across the street, pop over to Rich's.You will not be disappointed!

Hey there! Just wanted to share my experience with the Bulgogi I had today. It was good, but I have to admit that for $15, the portion size was a bit small. There was more rice than Bulgogi, but luckily the customer service was great which made my day. Next time, I plan on trying something else and see how it goes. Hope this helps!

They will make your food fresh. Made to order. Good food, good portion, good price, friendly and super kind owner, a couple that is also the staff. They work just by themselves so please don't rush them. The store is clean and pleasant. If not for yelp, I would not find this great place!

The staff are very welcoming and respectful, and they do their best to prepare food. Every time I’ve come, they’ve taken great care with the order. The store is well organized and clean. Reasonable prices, and the menu is very customizable. A reliable spot in Rockville right on the metro!

I go to a high school near by and we have open lunch. It takes us 10 minutes to walk to Rich's but its so worth it. The food is very reasonably priced especially because the portions are pretty big and will leave you feeling full! I have tried many things at rich's, and have loved everything I've tried! The owners of rich's are so polite and very kind to a noisy group of high schoolers like me and my friends. I've had the asian bowl, which is my favorite. I love asian food and have tried many different terriyaki chickens, but this is my all time favorite terriyaki chicken. The veggies in the bowl are flavorful and the chicken is cooked just right. Their sandwiches, I am a big fan of their panini's, are incredible. Sunny, the main lady who is always there when we come in, remembers my order and lets me order the chicken terriyaki panini which isnt techinally on the menu, but is one of my personally favorites I accidentally discovered there. The environment is calming and a nice break from your typical noisy school building, and if you need a snack they have plenttyyyyy of chips, drinks, and candy. All reasonably priced. I cannot recommend rich's more. You will love their food and feel at home there.

A wonderfully delightful little cafe hidden in plain sight. It is located on the northbound lane of 355-Rockville Pike.... just before the Rockville Metro Station. This little gem is charming, accommodating, and so friendly. Just like the "mom and pop" establishments of yesteryear.I requested an "avocado toast" and although not officially on the menu, Miss "S" handcrafted one for me.The best one I have ever had!Please check them out M-F, business hours. XOXO
Found this place on Yelp and saw the picture of the bulgogi rice bowl, and I knew I had to have it. The cafe is located inside a corporate building with a parking garage ($3 per hour). There's a few tables to sit at, and an abundance of drinks and snacks available. There was only one woman working, and she was working hard! She was so sweet and let us know there would be a little wait due to the group that ordered before us. We got the bulgogi rice bowl and the asian rice bowl (chicken). Our food came out piping hot with a side of gochujang for the bulgogi and I believe a chili sauce for the chicken. We both loved our food, the meat was well-seasoned and not overly salty or greasy, the veggies were fresh and delicious, and the rice was perfect. This place is a gem and deserves more love!

Best Bulgogi I’ve ever had, and I’m Korean (sorry mom!). You will not be disappointed by the tender meat and savory-sweet flavors of the Bulgogi Bowl. Trust!My husband and I checked out this cozy cafe on a whim based on Google reviews, and like others have said, it’s a hidden gem.Everything tastes fresh, homey, and of good quality like mom’s cooking. Sunny is so friendly and kind, and you can tell she cares a lot about seeing her customers happy and satisfied.My husband got the Breakfast Special, and the bacon and homestyle potatoes were top notch.Then to top it off, coffee is brewed fresh as a individual pour over.If we lived closer, I’d be here at least weekly. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

Fantastic breakfast place. Parking was a little confusing but it’s downstairs in the big building next to the Metro
