This is a great sushi place in the Cross Lanes area. I'm coming back to WV from Cali so was trying to figure out how the sushi is here and thankfully Teaghan at Rice Bowl helped me choose the West Virginia roll and it was divine. Crunchy shrimp on top of avocado and crabmeat tempura with eel sauce and a special tangy sauce. Delish. Great lunch specials. Today, I got the hot and sour soup, it's perfect in the fall and winter days plus they make fresh homemade wonton crisps to go with it. I love the tuna sashimi. It's excellent and fresh. I crave it all of the time. read more

We ordered 3 sushi rolls and orange chicken tonight. It was awful! The sushi was warm, even though we live close, and the seaweed was very thick and rubbery. Couldn't even eat it. We will not eat here ever again. read more

The food was excellent. I ordered the orange chicken extra spicy and the waitress even brought me extra chili sauce (Very thoughtful) the wife ordered chicken with garlic sauce it was a little sweet for her but she liked it. The waitress was wonderful and sweet. It's a quaint little place. read more

Ordered a bowl of soup, hush puppies, and hunan chicken. Soup was great as usual but my chicken came out cold. I told the waitress and the cook came out to argue with me. I handed him a vegetable was almost frozen and he said it was as hot as they could get it. I then said just charge me for the rice. He said he would have to charge me for the meal I did not eat and that he had taken from the table. I said he may have lost a customer and he said quote "I really don't care ". read more

This place has changed for the worst, the employees at the cash register don't care... or can't be bothered to get off their phones to help you... I called because they forgot two sides of crabrangoon and you would've thought I was asking them to redo my entire order, four minutes later I was so frustrated I just decided I didn't even want the sides and I will not go back. Then we get home and my wife's general tso tasted like freezer burnt garbage! And that was the quote her! Ridiculous when your orders are normally between $50-$100 read more

The best Chinese food around!! The owners and staff are very friendly! This is our go to place when we are in the Cross Lanes area!

Great long time spot for yummy Chinese. Very clean and inviting. Went mid week to great service and a varied menu. Don't judge this place by the silly name, it is a great place to go in the Kanawha valley. read more

Rice Bowl - Hunan beef - Chinese Near Me - Charleston, West Virginia

Try the onion pancakes. Absolutely the best app with a great sauce! For my main meal I ordered the General Tso's chicken with fried rice and it was really good. Only reason for four stars instead of five was the service. I would have liked my drink refills more timely and without having to ask. read more

My mistake was ordering Pad Thai from a Chinese place, through DoorDash nonetheless. What I received was the poorest attempt I've ever encountered in my life. I'm actually embarrassed on their behalf. I'm the type that very rarely wastes food, but it went straight into the garbage can. There was nothing Pad Thai about it. The noodles were complete mush and inedible. A few tiny salad shrimp, no cilantro, no lime, no sprouts, and NO PAD THAI SAUCE?! I think there was some crushed peanuts, but couldn't be sure if that's what it was. I may have been able to look past all the missing ingredients, but the noodle mush was just too awful. Never again. read more

Went for the Christmas buffet. Everything about the trip was great!! Good food, good service!!

I have always really liked the food here. It is fresh and tasty. When eating in, the wait staff is always friendly and attentive. However, today, I wanted to order a small salad with my sushi roll and was told I had to buy a full size salad. I asked why I couldn't buy one like you get with the combos. The waitress went and asked somebody and they refused to sell me a small salad. I don't get it. read more

Me and my brother love going her the sweet and sour chicken are great would recommend.

Second time picking up from Rice Bowl, same as last, disappointing. The beef with garlic was more vegetables than beef. It was also very bland with no taste. The spicy "korean" mustard for the spring rolls is water down. They have changed up their menu or cutting corners to save money, far cry from what it used to be. Conveniently location, sadly will not attempt to try again read more

Ordered here for Christmas dinner, and they were extremely busy, which we totally understand. The food is usually pretty decent for the price. We ordered 1 pu pu(?) Platter, 3 Singapore Noodles with Curry, 3 egg rolls, 2 spicy California rolls, and 1 avacado roll. It was $73.88 The prices on the website are out of date so the price was a bit of a shock. They also failed to give us a receipt when we asked as I wanted to check what the price of each of the items were. They also crushed a sauce when bagging the order in front of my husband. We ordered a pu pu platter, and received 1 each of chicken wing/leg (dried out and hard to chew), beef on a stick (flat and hard like jerky-good flavor but hard to chew), crab Rangoon(nice!), beef rib (which was amazing) and an egg roll. The Singapore noodles with curry was pretty good but kinda dry. It was mostly noodles with very little of anything else. This is something we order everytime and this has continued to become more noodles and less substance with time. I love sushi, and the California and Avacado roll ingredients were amazing. I would like to have a good amount of rice on them, and have the rice not be overcooked. I don't think I would have such a problem with anything if I felt it was a good value for the money. I love this restaurant, but since covid we've seen a dramatic increase in prices while the food quality and size has been reduced. I think this is something happening everywhere, but shrink portions OR raise prices, not both. read more

Good food, great people!! They play rock, I would like to hear traditional Chinese music. Also the store items in the Buffett tray in the open. That's just minor things that would make it better. But, it is clean and tasty. I'll keep returning. Service is great, the people are quick and kind read more

Great spot in Cross Lanes! It was pretty busy, but our waitress was very nice and attentive. We had the crab rangoon, which was hot and full of flavor. Then I had the orange chicken, which had a robust sauce with a nice touch of citrus and a bit of spice. My companion had the sweet and sour chicken, which was nice but could've used more veggies. So glad we checked Yelp on this trip, because we never would've found this great spot! read more

Absolute best Chinese food around. Quality is second to none. Blows everyone else away. A little pricier than some, but worth every penny! Noodles, rice cocked just right. Crab Rangoon is on point! Can't recommend enough!! read more

My favorite Chinese in the Charleston area. I have found they are usually in a hurry preparing food to go. My most current order I asked for the creamed cheese wontons. If they had paid attention they would have noticed that the cream cheese mixture was missing out of the product. read more

I just spent 80 dollars on a meal that was completely flavorless . Over the last two years I have tried and tried to eat here but every time it is awful . The only things that were good was the hush puppies and the crab Rangoon . I will not be giving this place another chance . read more

My absolute favorite Chinese restaurant! We've been going here for many years and usually order take out. The food is always hot, exactly what we ordered, and packaged well. We have moved away from the area and when we come back to visit, this is one of the first places we come to! read more

The food is good but if you order online and choose to pay with cash they will not start cooking your food until you actually walk in to pick it up so you will be waiting about 20 minutes but if you pay online with a card it will be ready when you arrive. read more

I don't normally compain about trivial things, but this is BEYOND insane!! We have been CRAVING chinese lately and finally decided To go get it this evening at Rice Bowl (pickup only and they call your name and put the bag on a table for you to get it). I called at 5:34 pm while almost to the cross lanes exit from hurricane. I then got to Cross lanes and in 10 minutes, i moved MAYBE 1 car length. I called Rice Bowl back and told them i wanted to cancel my order. The lady that answered checked with someone and told me my order had not been made yet and that it was fine. I turned around to come back home. About 15 Minutes later, I received a call and the man said i needed to come get my order because they decided to go ahead and make it. I told him that i cancelled my order before it was made and i wanted my money refunded. He told me he was NOT going to refund my money because he went ahead and made it. I reiterated what the other woman told me and he said that it didnt matter because they made it. I told him that what he was doing had to be illegal!!!! He told me that he had my credit card information and was still going to charge my card and would NOT reverse it! I told him i was going to report him to the BBB!! He said that was just fine and hung up! THEN he charged my card!! I was flabbergasted! I have contacted my bank and reported a fraudulent charge and going to contact the BBB as well! Just sharing in hopes that others don't give them any of their business! We had wanted to try their restaurant before and never did. Now i'm glad we haven't!!!! Thank goodness Taste of Asia is opening tomorrow! read more

Checked out Rice Bowl for dinner tonight. They recently opened their sushi area and are offering a wide array of creative options. We ordered the Mi So Pretty, Paradise, and Pink Lady rolls. To our surprise, the rolls arrived beautifully presented on a sushi boat. The Paradise roll had the addition of fresh banana in it and the Pink Lady had sweet mango. Super different. They also offer the pink soy paper which is a nice alternative to the seaweed wrapper. As a nice surprise, they included a sampler of a sushi-style jalapeño popper - tuna, cream cheese, and a spicy drizzle. Yum! We were very full. Two rolls were probably plenty but the third roll provided us with a little variety. We had leftovers. Closed the order with a half dozen of their delicious sweet hush puppies with honey butter. Those are for later when I am less full! ;). Best of luck to Andy and his family! read more
