    I love this place, the food is very healthy and delicious. The place is very clean and spacious. All very hygienic. Somewhat difficult to get parking. But it's a great place to eat.

    Quality food prepared well. Good size portion and chicken kabob platter was very tasty. This location began to get pretty busy around 12:30p.

    Ick this place used to be so good, but I ordered today and it was horrendous. Giving two stars instead of one because the baklava was really good, but the rest of the food just tasted really bad. I used to love the braised beef, but it tasted so odd this time. The falafel was burned too and the honey nut feta had a weird flavor. It didn’t used to be like this, so I’m very sad to be writing this review!

    We had the best time here at Rice! The Coral Gables location was fantastic and the service was divine! Coming from Canada, we greatly enjoyed the help and recommendations from Pierre, he was so kind and very welcoming! As well, the food was so delicious, a tasty and unique take on Persian dining, we loved it! Would surely come again for the wonderful food and service from Pierre and the team!

    Delicious! I had a salad bowl here two days ago, and I'm always happy when I find something that I crave so soon after. I find that it's healthy, varied, and especially tasty!

    After recently one of my many trips to Rice, I decided I need to write a review for this place because it really deserves to be highlighted. The food at this restaurant is consistently great, and Pierre and his team always provide attentive service throughout. Rice offers a satisfying menu with flavorsome dishes that are consistently good. The ingredients always taste fresh and feel they are prepared on made to order basis. The service provided by Pierre and his team deserves recognition. They're always attentive and make sure we have everything we need. Overall, Rice is a great choice for a meal out. The food is consistently enjoyable, and the service provided by the team there adds to the dining experience.

    I visited this place today for dinner 🥘. I ordered Vegan 🌱 Protein Bowl. It was so healthy & delicious bowl with enough quantity. I recommend this place for this bowl.

    Came to visit the umbrella art display and discovered Rice Mediterranean Kitchen. The food is truly fresh and very healthy. A great choice for dieters or health conscious eaters, the menu offers choices for those who enjoy meat, are vegetarians and for the Gluten free crowd. Don't let the name fool you, you don't have to have rice with your meals, simply substitute for a generous bed of one of their 3 salad choices. Their hummus variety is very tasty and the additional toppings are plentiful. I chose the chicken breast for one of my protein choices and it was very tasty. They also feature organic fountain drinks and flavored ice teas and lemonade, however they do not have any sweetener for their unsweetened ice tea. Fortunately I had stevia in my pocket. The restaurant is very clean and the views are nice. I'll be back to dine there.

    Excellent food. I had the Chicken Joojah special. The chicken was one of the best tasting I have ever had! Delicious lunch with the family in beautiful Coral Gables.

  • 5/5 Walid 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing spot for that Mediterranean craving. Service - It was quick and great. Cleanliness - tables were consistently whipped down and washroom was quite clean aswell. Food - During my short trip to Miami I made sure to visit this restaurant as many times as humanly possible. I ordered the bowl - all carb options were great my fav was a mix of lentils and brown rice. Meats - slow cooked chicken and bruised beef were the best. All the Hummus offered were amazing but my favorite was the honey nut Hummus. All toppings were fresh and delicious. One recommendation I would make is to get the Hummus and sauces on the side. At times there can be just to many flavors at once. Then add to your liking.

    We ordered catering for a meal after a funeral mass. Isabel Hurtado, catering manager, was helpful and efficient. Pierre, the manager of the Coral Gables restaurant was extremely accommodating and respectful of the circumstances. The delivery was made exactly at the time requested and the food was well packaged and the appropriate temperature. The food was very good. They made a difficult time so much easier. Highly recommend.

    First time here! Rice is an excellent, healthy, authentic Mediterranean restaurant. It’s your typical choose your bowl or kabobs, base options, choose your dips or spread, and protein. I had a falafel salad bowl with greek yogurt, carrot tahini, hummus, and black lentil base. Food was delicious and low sodium. Recommended!

    Our first time here and we loved it all. Ordered the rice and salad bowl with fluffy basmati rice, hummus, honey nut feta, carrot tahini (yum), roasted veggies, avocado, lemon tahini dressing and more. Delicious!

    My husband and I went here for dinner this evening. As my husband was finishing the payment, I asked him to ask for tap water. The lady who served us got some cups but seemed hesitant. There was another server sitting next to the cashier who said something to her which was said so we couldn’t hear. I asked the lady as I was about to walk away if there was an issue, she pointed to the bottled water and said we have bottled water for a dollar. I looked at my husband as he was taking the food off the counter and had finished paying. My husband spoke and said tap water is fine. Both the lady behind the counter and the other cashier looked at each other sort of judging us. This was uncomfortable and not expected as we had just purchased two full meals and tipped. The food was very yummy, absolutely no problem with the food. There were no roast vegetables available which was disappointing but they gave me more meat. There was plenty of seating inside and outside. The tables were not very clean but it was okay.

    Delicious and healthy! Chicken wrap with sumac sauce is super tasty highly recommend! I also loved the cookies Staff was amazing too

  • 1/5 Shafiul Hasan T. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a disappointment. The amount was very little compared to the price. Just take a look at the pictures. Also the taste was not good at all. That tenderloin kabob tasted like boiled in water with some salt and vinegar. Will never recommend this restaurant to anyone.

  • 5/5 Niurka P. 2 years ago on Google
    great place for a quick bite, definitely good food. surprisingly my biggest recommendation is to get the ice cream, it's light and tasty, I absolutely loved it and will definitely suggest you give it a try.
