Hello, I am leaving a review on Rice Express because I wanted to say how rude the workers are there. They are very disrespectful and do not attend customers how it should kindly be. I recently went to this restaurant and the man who attended be was NOT nice. When I was going to ask what I wanted, before I could ask, he said "What do you want?" I didn't say anything but I did not like the way he said that! When I about to pay, he shoved my food in the bag and threw it on the counter. I left but didn't say anything to him. He was very rude and was just not nice. read more

Very Rude and unprofessional, wanted to try their food but was rejected service even though I was on time before closing.

I have been to many Chinese fast food restaurants all over California and this is one of the best... it is just too bad that I don't live in the area but I definitely will travel to get this food. They use just the right amount of seasoning and salt. Thank you for being nice, too! read more

They charge $1 for refill and the lady yelled it to me AFTER I finished filling the cup. Customer service is horrible, not smiling or greeting customers. Food was cold too. Not the cleanest place read more

Terrible service! Very bad food safety habits! Really? The person serving couldn't get off her cell phone to serve people food? AND WHEN I ASKED IF SHE WAS GOING TO WASH HER HANDS SHE GAVE ME A DIRTY LOOK AND DIDN'T BOTHER TO WASH HER HANDS AFTER HANDLING HER DIRTY CELL PHONE! Total disregard for food safety! I can't imagine how many people get sick from cross contamination from this place! read more

Very clean and super fresh food. It's so much better tasting than Panda Express...plus it's cheaper!! Their fried rice is delicious. Soup is made to order (hot & sour soup is yummy). It's definitely above-average Chinese food (and I've tried many different Chinese restaurants). Plus they give really big portions =) They have great friendly service too. They also have awesomely cheap party trays. read more

Customer service is horrible, walk in and the lady doesnt even smile .she made a mistake and doesnt apologize saying " no u just say chow mein " when clearly we said both said half and half rice and chow mein, so rude never coming back after our first bad exoerince with the same woman, we figured oh maybe the last timr we came she was having a bad day but NO she is just straight up bad at atleast fake smiling read more

I just moved to a new office in Covina and originally wanted Panda Express, but didn't want to drive too far.... So I decided to give rice express a try....................... yep, should have just drove that extra mile for Panda Express. This place sucks! The orange chicken didn't even have chicken in it.. it was just the fried part drenched in sauce. The String beans tasted funny and wasn't cooked fully. The Veggies were soaked in oil or something... it didn't have any crunch to it. Don't eat here. Trust me. read more

I had this place yesterday and I'll I can say is wow!! I really liked it and the portions were good size, will come back for some more!!!!!!! read more

I really was not at all satisfied with the food here, which is disappointing because the selection is pretty good. My order was lukewarm and I could tell it had been sitting out for quite a while. The noodles were greasy and had very little flavor, the rice was very dry and it too had very little flavor, and the chicken I got was gummy from having been sitting under a heat lamp for what I'm guessing was at least a few hours. They give generous portions, I'll give that to them and their prices are low, but beware, you get what you pay for. On top of that all, they were terribly rude. I'm not ever going back. read more

I guess the baby was craving chinese so I convinced the hubby to stop by on his way home from work. I always love the beef and broccoli, but here it was pretty dry. I was disappointed. I also had the mushroom chicken and it was way better than the beef and broccoli. People rave about the rice, but it seemed below average to me. The noodles were just noodles...same ones you get at all the fast food chinese places. Overall, I was so excited to try this place and was left with a blehhhh taste in my mouth. read more

From my personal experiences this place is ok compared to a lot of chinese food places. Yes the employees actually do look miserable and can't wait till they leave. Food is ok but make sure it is fresh because that's when it is the best! read more

Give big portions! The fried rice and chow mein are perfect! not too oily but enough that it won't leave you choking while you swallow each bite. The Veggie Egg Rolls are the BEST!!! read more

Clean place. Costumer service is great. Very nice people there. They give you plenty of food lol what I like most, is that the food is always fresh. I prefer this place over panda express. I have a very picky eater toddler and he enjoys the noodles here. read more

This place is absolute garbage. Went there on a Saturday night, it was around 8.30pm and noticed there weren't many trays with food on them, very few. I could only pick like 2 options. Got broccoli beef and teriyaki chicken and she didn't even put any beef at all, didn't realize it until I opened up the plate. Never coming back and waisting my money in this crappy place again. Pissed that I waisted 8 bucks on this. read more

My husband and I have been going to this restaurant for years. The food is fresh and very tasty. Our favorite dish is the Wonton soup. The place is clean and well-maintained. There is always a steady stream of people going there. I would give it 5 stars because the bathroom is clean but has signs of vandalism which is not painted over. Otherwise, the Rice Express is very good place to eat and you can't beat the prices. The personnel is very friendly and they remember how we order. read more

I was served raw broccoli beef. I could still see the raw meat and raw batter. The guy had no problem giving me my money back the problem was when I watched him dump the broccoli beef I just handed him right back into the main serving tray. I told him that was wrong and he started to take it out and I walked out. Who's knows who else was served that meat or if he actually threw it out. Won't be back. read more

Save your money please this place is really nasty. The food smells and I lost my appetite.

A cheap little place but always clean and good portions. I like the BBQ Pork, Orange chicken, and all fried rice. For $5 bucks you can get a crap load of food and it will hold me over for a while. Alot of places can match this place so if you're in the area it's woth it but not a drive. read more

This is one of those I-only-go-here-because-it's-down-the-street places. Average, greasy, fried, chinese fast food.

The workers look miserable! No courtesy , no hello, thank you, nothing! The food was not fresh and had no flavor. I will not be back here. I left most of my plate, not worth the calories! read more

So on the plus side, the food is pretty good and plentiful. However, if it's anywhere near closing time (even an hour before) and they're out of a certain entree...don't expect them to make another batch. As a whole, it's a good spot. A lot of food and if you're there early enough, several options. read more

Good food. Its better quality than most Chinese places in the neighborhood. The won ton soup was heartier with more veggies. The only thing I didn't like was that I tried to call in my order because I had a large order and whoever answered the phone INSISTED I just waltz in. I spent my whole lunch waiting on pork fried rice. read more

my family over 26 people we ordered Mongolian beef half tray all of us ate out of this pin and it is still full of nothing but onions where is the Mongolian read more

Rice Express - Nothing but onions 26 people eat out of this pan and is still full of onions no meat we will use the leftover onion for soup - Chinese Near Me - Covina, California

this place is kind of a hit or miss. sometimes I go and its delicious but other days like today the food looks and taste mushy and gross. I guess it depends on who is working because it looks like they all make it differently. its a 50/50, either really good, or really bad, no in between. read more

this place is so effing good man. the ladies here are the best and they always load my plates. been coming here since i was 5. people lying about coustomer service is because they are the ones that are rude first and dont have common decency. read more

good ass food, big portions, and fast service. what more can a man ask for? perhaps for the chinese woman (cashier) to not pick her nose as im leaving with my food.. she should really use gloves.. or just not work there. unless boogers are a delacacy. but theyre not.. they just arent.. will i come back here tho? (takes breath..) yes. lol its really hard to find a good chinese take out. if anyone knows of any let me know. the prices are fair and the food was good its just SHE WAS PICKING HER NOSE AS I WAS LEAVING!! i turn around and bam i see her putting her finger down from her nose. -_- sigh.. really tho. let me know if you know a good chinese take out near covina within a 25 mile radius. read more

It's okay. The orange chicken isn't really amazing, but the beef broccoli and fried rice are pretty tasty. It's worth a shot. Then again, you can't really expect gourmet from a fast food Asian restaurant. read more

Food is real good and they give you a ton of food. Price is cheaper than panda but the selection isn't as much as other locations.

No weak Panda Express portions here! They pack your plate full of food. So if you're on a diet do not come here. The helper was really nice, too. read more

The food was fresh and the portions were huge! Nice service and a clean restaurant! I give it a solid A- ! It's nice for a quick fix for your cravings. read more

I like this place the owner always gives me free egg rolls or wontons when I order for my big family. Its good, not the best. But close to home for me. I have had better. I agree with Stephanie on this one. They are nice though to me everytime I do come in. read more

House hunting in the area, we were hungry for some good Chinese food. With habit of only carrying plastic in the wallet, we were searching for Chinese food place takes CREDIT CARD! Rice express takes credit card, nice! They give huge portion, I took home half box of food. Their teriyaki chicken was very juicy and flavorful. I really like their egg rolls as well. Will be back often once I move here :) read more

The best takeout chinese food in the area for price. The service here is reasonable enough to earn 4 out 5 stars, my rating based on value, price, taste, and selection. Most people will get good value here so value is 5 out of 5 stars, price wise 5 out of 5 stars, taste wise 3 out of 5 stars, 4 out of 5 stars for selection. I deducted a star and half so 3.5 out of 5 because the food taste is a tad above average but good compared to others in the area. Nonetheless, if your looking for close place with ok chinese, which a lot of places lack in this area, this is a place to try out. read more

This place a billion times better than panda express if you're looking for good customer service this aint the place for you but the last time i checked friendly employees doesnt equal full stomach you get good amounts of food and their teriyaki chicken is the best in the business read more

The food was alright but the cutmore service was wack. Employees were ignorant. They need to listen more to the customers. I came here with my sisters and they barley listend to what we were asking for. We had a hard time giving our order. read more

I really want to give at LEAST 4 stars because I love their food and how it tastes. I've been here a couple times and nothing bad has ever happened. My visit today wasn't bad either. My reason for the bad score is because I have a big concern with their food handling practices. Before the lady served my food, she was on the cash register handling CASH. Right away, without washing her hands or at least wearing gloves, she went straight to me to serve my food. Now as you read this you might think, "if you really had an issue about this, why didn't you tell her right then and there when it happened?" That's because I didn't want to make things worse or agitate her. She wasn't very enthused to serve my food, and I understand because it's probably closing time or close to closing time. So I decided to just suck it up because I was hungry and I just wanted to go home. I would still come back because for the price and its taste, it's pretty unbeatable. I just wish they re-fresh their safe serving practices because it's just unsafe. read more

All I have to say is that it's the worst Chinese food I've ever tasted please don't even bother coming here!!!!
