Authentic hole in the wall shop for rice noodle rolls. They also provide a free soymilk drink yum! Servings are adequate portion and very tasty! One plate of rolls was enough per person but I got the noodle to try as well. Noodles are good with the tableside chili sauce and wontons were also well made. We had a cost effective breakfast! Next time I'll need to try the congee. read more

I'm so happy steam rolls are having a moment because they're one of the coziest foods out there, and Steamroll King offer so many protein options. We tried the beef and shrimp steam rolls, and both were outstanding. Just like at dimsum. The real surprise was they also have congee! If you're looking for the ultimate comfort meal on a rainy day or a lazy Sunday, give this place a go. read more

We stopped by for a quick bite to try their steamed rice rolls. We ordered the beef rice roll, egg rice roll, fried mushrooms with garlic, and the dry chili lo wontons. The rice rolls had a great texture, silky and soft. I preferred the beef over the egg. The fried mushrooms were tasty, though the menu photo showed oyster mushrooms, and what we received were regular white mushrooms. The wontons were good, but I preferred the beef rice rolls more. I also liked that dining in comes with a complimentary glass of warm soy milk, which was a nice touch and not overly sweet. read more

I've only been to SRRK 3x since they've opened, and I really dig their rice noodle rolls so much that I've not explored much else of the menu. Everything is made and steamed fresh to order, but there is a thinness and delicateness and quality here that beats out the dim sum places and is among the best rice noodle rolls at this price point. The prices are really really really cheap and is among one of the better values in town for a quick no frills meal. Besides how often can you say something is an incredible value or cheap in Portland these days? At most dim sum places serving rice noodle rolls you usually just get plain, shrimp, or beef. Here I've counted like 11+ variations of fillings which is wild. For instance, where else have you seen corn, chinese sausage, or spam as a filling option before? They had 18 different items in their snack section that were $7.50 and under including wings, takoyaki, fried mushrooms, crab puffs, fried bananas and more. I can't speak to how good everything is here, but that's a testament to how good their noodle rolls are. If you are going to come here give the fresh housemade soy milk a shot as well. read more

It's really cool to have specialty Chinese food like this. I've had steamed rice rolls before, but as only a single item on a long dim sum menu. Having an entire menu of them was quite the experience. We got both corn and shrimp rolls, as well as some fried things. Next time we visit we'll try the congee, which looked good. The soy milk was also tasty. I do wish they had tea, though. The decor is also delightfully 60s. read more

Steam Rice Roll King - Shrimp rice roll and sweet corn rice roll - Chinese Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I liked this place!! Unassuming, your typical mom and pop shop, Steam Rice Roll King serves cozy cantonese eats that are authentic and homemade. Service is friendly and after you are seated you are greeted with a fresh cup of housemade warm soymilk. Not too sweet - perfect for the Asian palate. We got the shrimp rice roll and the beef rice roll. The rolls were not heavily seasoned and were light in flavor. The texture was chewy, fresh, and had a "QQ" texture. Definitely a step up from dim sum places! While I didn't try their other offerings, they look worthy of a return visit! read more

This place is very good! Food came out quick. The rice rolls were so soft and tasty. I only wish that the roll was hotter. When it came out, it was luke warm.

I love the ground pork rice noodle rolls here and the congee. Super affordable, super yum, and there's complimentary hot soy milk too!

Having been away from the Cantonese scene in Portland for a few decades got me worried, but with restaurants like Steam Rice Roll King, I am not as concerned that Portland Chinese restaurants will lose the unique Cantonese flavor. This place specializes in Cheurng Fun, or the "rice roll" often eat at dim sum restaurants. You'll find some great HK style comfort dishes too like Xiduoshi (french toast with condensed milk), very smooth juk, and others. You'll want to try the different Cheurng Fn variations, including the shrimp, cha-siu, and beef versions. Servers are very polite, and the eating space is maintained well. Highly recommended for some good Cantonese style comfort food eats. read more

We ordered; Golden Beef Rice Noodle Salted Bone Congee Salt & Pepper Chicken Tips Shrimp Rice Roll Beef Rice Roll Fried Chinese Donut Wait - It was just the two of us. 40 minute wait. Restaurant was full at 1:00 pm. Be prepared to wait a long time! Service - One gal working. I'm sure she was overwhelmed, but didn't show it. I wanted to help her clear tables. We waited about 20 minutes for the first few dishes. Food -The Golden Beef Rice Noodles had a robust, flavorful broth. Recommended. Salted Bone Congress's was too salty. I would not order again. Chicken Tips are just that - if you like bone and skin. It was ok, but not ordering next time Rice Rolls - Nice "que que" texture. It was good. Recommended. Chinese Donut - Typical greasy fried dough. Rancid tasting. Oil needs to be changed. Overall, I would return and will go right when they open. read more

Ordered take out from here and also got some homemade soy milk, which I forgot to take a picture of. It was delicious and I hear it's free if you eat in store so I'd def like to do that sometime. The steamed rolls are quite good, just a little bland, I would have liked two containers of the sauce for extra flavor. The fried mushrooms were okay, probably wouldn't get those again. The golden beef rice noodle soup surprised me with how good it was! The broth had a lot of flavor and was delicious. Congee was pretty good, the shrimp steamed rice noodles were also a little bland. I added some chili oil to help. Wontons were decent but not amazing. Overall I'd say it was pretty good food and I would still want to try more of the menu, maybe more of the steamed rolls and with extra sauce. read more

Pros: they make really good steam rice rolls, I mean, better than what I had in Seattle, Vancouver BC, Taiwan, and maybe HK! Rice noodles is also decent. Fast service. Friendly staff/owners. Cons: typical Chinese restaurant hygiene (good enough not to get sick but you just know there is room for improvement), wontons are so so. read more

A tasty and cozy restaurant with equally tasty and cozy Chinese dishes, great for a rainy Portland day. PARKING: Small parking lot in front of the restaurant with only a few spaces. AMBIANCE: Fitting with that cozy theme, it's a small restaurant with a small seating area in what seems like a small house. Bright orange chairs and seats make for a vibrant atmosphere. SERVICE: Greeted and seated right when we walked in. They even brought complimentary hot soy milk which was delicious. Cleared our dishes promptly as we finished our dishes. They're not overly friend but that's how you know it's good. FOOD: Salted Bone Porridge: Tasty and with the Chinese donuts it hits the spot when you're craving a cozy bowl of porridge. The pork was a little too salty for me but added good flavouring to the porridge itself. Fried Fish Cake: My favourite. Flavour on the fish cakes themselves was great. Salty and savoury. Good dipping sauce too that added sweetness. Curried Fish Ball: The curry was not super punchy and was a little watered down. Beef Brisket Rice Roll: Brisket was tender and flavoured well with all the good Chinese flavours you'd find in brisket in a noodle soup. Definitely want to try more of their rice rolls. OVERALL: Not too shabby! Would come back to try more of their small plates as well. read more

Love this place! I love coming here when I'm craving rice rolls. So fresh and bouncy.

I was taken here by my friend as she had been raving about the steamed rolls for quite a while, and that got me excited about trying Steam Rice Roll King as well! When we arrived at noon on a Saturday, we found ourselves waiting in line since seating was very limited. When we finally got seated, we ordered a bunch of rice rolls and the staff quickly brought us complimentary hot soy milk which was a nice treat. All the steam rolls were very tender as they were made to order. The texture of the homemade rice rolls was smooth and tender, which is hard to come by in the US. While the rice roll texture was great, the favor was a bit lacking. We ordered several rolls and they seem to taste mostly the same somehow. Also I wish the dining area would be more pleasant. The entire time we felt very restrictive as tables were close to each others, and the waiting customers cramped in the entrance area. Overall, we did enjoy the food and might order take out next time we crave some freshly made rice rolls! read more

First thing's first, the rice roll texture is really delicious and fresh here. Unfortunately it lacked a bit of flavor and needed a lot more soy sauce imo. The shrimp was a little tough and overcooked. Im curious to come back here and try a different meat filling. The bbq noodle soup was decent. The broth wasn't too heavy and the bbq pork was salty enough to balance out the light broth. For $13 it's a great deal for a meal. The atmosphere of the restaurant is bustling. The servers are busy but they attend to you pretty quickly. Really awesome service considering the crowds they pull here! read more

Found the Rice rolls on this side of the PNW! Plus a variety of complementary dishes on the menu! They're experts on the rice rolls - we had the beef and the pork and it was perfect - the meat was blended so well into the rice rolls and the sauce that went over was a perfect combination. We also tried the lo mien noodles and the brisket sauce was a plus. cooler days called for us to add the won ton noodle soup and it hits the spot - the broth was tastefully made! Don't forget to try the Chinese donut plus the congee - it's the perfect pairing! Quick service and beautiful decorations - make you smile the whole time! A good sized parking lot although - definitely support a local business here! read more

If you love rice rolls as much as I do then you have to come here!! Their rice rolls have the best texture! The perfect amount of bounciness. There's a lot of variety you can choose from and customizations you can do to them. We also ordered other things to try like their chicken wings which were so savory and perfectly crunchy. Their salted bone congee was so yummy! They were not lying when they said it's a salted bone but it really fit my Chinese tastebuds. We also tried their wonton soup which was very different than when you think of most wonton noodles soups because it comes with vegetables and seaweed. I love that this place gives complimentary soy milk when dining in. It's the perfect amount of sweetness that went so well with the meal. I highly recommend coming! It can get pretty busy depending on when you come. read more

Came in on a cold morning and the server started us off with warm soy milk, which was super good. The rice rolls were fresh, hot, and honestly some of the best I've had in Portland.

Overall, had a good experience here and I'd definitely come back, mainly for the rice rolls and congee. read more

These are the freshest most bounciest silky rice noodles you'll ever encounter pretty close to the Cheng fun cart in NYC. Honestly we weren't super impressed with the lo mein it was too salty and soggy, I was expecting a little more on the stir fry side. If I was to come here again I would just stick to the steam rice rolls. Also location is kinda sketchy and the inside is pretty small just a few tables. Service is as good as it can be with just one girl working, so be patience. :) read more

I love this place! After the Korean mama craze died down I have been here several times. The steam rice roll king dish is my favorite. It reminds me of Look Fun that you find in Hawaii. I have gotten the regular noodles and the steam rice noodles with brisket and with the dipping sauce it's fantastic. The people taking the orders are super kind and they even offered us a cup of hot soy milk while we were waiting for our order to be made. It was so good especially with the cold weather here. If you're looking for some delicious noodles, I recommend this place. There's a small parking lot so you don't really need to park on the street if they aren't busy read more

Came here because I heard good things. I love me a rice roll. It was disappointing and not good. Service is not quick. For dishes that are really simple and relatively fast to produce, the food took a while to come out. It wasn't very busy when I went, so waiting for 45 minutes for two rolls seemed long. I ordered the egg and bbq pork stone rice rolls. The hostess, server, expediter in one didn't seem to be very organized for being the one to have those tasks. And because this person is the one to do everything, I saw LOTS of cross contamination. Amazing that I didn't get ill. Inside was very kitschy, orange, cold. Refrigerators are part of the aesthetic in this dining room as well. No frills seats and chairs, which doesn't bother me. I come for the food. The rolls were hot so that was good. The texture was chalky, gritty, not smooth-like they pulverized the rice down but not fine enough? It was close to inedible. The only thing on the plate that made these edible was the sugar soy sauce on top. Which they drench the rolls with. Maybe to cover up the terrible texture and taste. I ate some of each roll and did not take the rest home. I ALWAYS take my leftovers. They are making a killing here, but they really need tons of improvement before I will ever return. I will continue to go and get my rice rolls while I'm at a dim sum joint. On top of that they usually give warm soy milk which they gave to me at the end of my meal, so I declined. read more

Came over for a lunch. About 5 parking spaces in the front of the restaurant. And street parking. About 9 tables inside. We ordered a beef brisket noodle soup, golden beef rice noodles soup and preserve egg congee with crispy donut. Ordered a BBQ pork and shrimp steam rice noodles. They have hot soybean milk for you. Pretty tasty. Food came out quickly. And everything is delicious. I really enjoyed the steam rice noodles. So simple yet so delicious. The noodle soup has a lot of flavorful ingredients. The Golden Beef rice noodles soup had a bit of fatty pieces in it. Carrots and green onions top the noodles soup. The food came out hot in temperature. read more

i enjoyed my experience here even though some of the items were hit or miss. they give you a complimentary cup of warm soy milk. it has such a nice flavor, you can tell they make it in house. the beef in the noodles wasn't tender and didn't break apart the way i expected so i was disappointed by that. i thought the noodles and broth were ok, not really special to me. the shrimp rice roll was lacking a little flavor. i wish they had soy sauce on the side so we could adjust the food accordingly. i really liked the barbecue pork rice roll. this one was a little saltier than expected but i still enjoyed it. the worker was really nice and sweet. when you're done you can just pay at the counter. the space is bigger than i thought, and it has a nice bright modern aesthetic. read more

Affordable and quality rice rolls! The GOOD - free HOT soy milk right when you sit down! They had a black sesame flavor the day we went! Stone Rice Noodle Roll - $7.50-$10.50 - as expected, their rice noodle rolls were the best - you can tell they were handmade and high quality - really enjoyed the GLUTINOUS texture - thin and silky, but still held their structure without falling apart - beef was very tender but on fattier side - small to medium sized portion is just enough for 1 person, very good price - wasn't a fan of the type of shrimp they used in the rice roll, it was a little too hard? I'm used to the more soft ones used in dimsum BBQ Pork Lo Mein - nothing to write home about, but for only $9.50 I was very happy! - good flavor and good ratio of meat Wonton Noodle Soup $11 - tasted handmade, no complaints - wontons were a little on the smaller side - not the best I've had, probably wouldn't get it again OTHER THOUGHTS - definitely a hole in the wall type place, very unassuming from the outside - clean bathroom, plenty of parking - reasonable wait time and friendly workers CONCLUSION Quality steamed rice rolls. VERY affordable and will definitely satisfy cravings. I can't think of another place in Portland that sells Chinese steamed rice rolls for this price (besides dim sum). I would come back for the free soy milk, BEEF rice rolls, and try their congee! read more

10/10. Went here despite the negative reviews. I guess the owners read the prev negative reviews and got their act together because the steamed rice rolls I got today were PERFECT!! It hit the spot. Context I went on a Tuesday before noon. I was glad this worked out because I was on hangry energy. Food wait time was 16 mins. Steam rice noodles were super bouncy, chewy, and smooth. The Carbo-'meter went off the hook for me. There was no gritty texture as the rice batter for this was done well. Portions were reasonable too as I got full after one plate (but options are important). The sauce on the rice noodle rolls was a good amount and tasted like savory beef broth and soysauce (it was good). It was definitely not bland at all. I enjoyed the beef rice roll the most (would recommend for newbies) and will try the brisket next. Service was average and they did give me a warm soy milk when I sat down (it was so good). Also note these noodles and the ones from dimsum are slightly different. These are made in a smaller pan so the batter is pushed toward to give a folded look. They are more like street style steam noodles. The ones at dimsum are done in a giant sheet pan and only folded one or two times. So those are more even. Phone will be ringing off the hook because this place is super popular with elders and families. A lot of people order To-go. Seating is simple - don't go in groups of 3 or more it's hella small inside. Wear a coat as some of their seating is by the door. Yes they have a bathroom. The waitress is still young but she's trying her best, you need to flag her down if you need something. She's a bit slower as she's the only one working so have patience with her. They also have house chili oil (ask for this) it's damn good and not bland. Nice aromatic of chili crisp and not too spicy. I shall be returning and praying they don't adjust anything after this. It's perfection!!!!! read more

Rice roll king just recently opened in this location and before them it has constantly rotated through various restaurants. None have lasted very long but I do see this finally being the business that lasts. Every time I've been here there has alway been a decent amount of people and usually a wait. It's a pretty small building. However it is worth it, the food is super yummy and very affordable. read more

I went here for lunch one day and although the food was not bad, I had a terrible experience. I came in at 12pm, and was told that there was going to be a 15-20 minute wait. I was totally okay with it but that 20 minute wait turned out to be 40 minutes, and I was getting hangry at this point. Once we were seated, it took about another 20 minutes just for our order to be taken. Despite being the only ones waiting for the duration of the 40 minutes, all the other tables had their order taken before us (no exaggeration, I believe it's because we were in the back corner). As someone who worked in service, I believe it's only proper to keep track of who has arrived first and treat them in that order. People who arrived after we got SEATED had their orders taken before us because they were ready and closer to the front. AND to top it all off, they serve the food table by table. For example, they will deliver the entire order of a table before they start serving on the next one. So, since our table had our order taken last, we were the last to have our food delivered to our table. This took another 35-40 minutes. The tables that arrived after we got seated (but their orders taken first) had left by the time we got our food. I really tried to be understanding because there was only one woman working the front, but to wait for 2 hours for the service was insane. And, the food was just alright. If you were to go, I recommend going before or after any rushes. I hope they fix the way they do service. read more

We came here for lunch Saturday. There was a steady flow of customers, but no one seemed to wait much more than 10 minutes while we were there. They bring you hot sweetened soy milk when you sit down, which was an amazing touch! The steamed rice noodle rolls are their specialty, and the noodles are perfectly thin and bouncy. You just have to choose the filling: --BBQ pork: 3/5 sliced and slightly dry --sweet corn: 4/5 a unique filling. The corn seemed fresh and held-up texture-wise --beef brisket: 5/5 my favorite--nice and tender and tendon was soft and gelatinous Mixed pork congee: 4.5/5 Good flavor and texture; the meat seemed to be mostly intestine vs. kidney and liver read more

I came to this place via the recommendation of the Korean mama on IG. I think the hype was high because there was an incredibly long wait and they were out of quite a few items on the menu. I would recommend the original only. We tried the Chinese sausage and brisket which I probably wouldn't get again. They will give you extra sauce on the side if you ask for it. Personally, what they gave wasn't enough. I think I'd go again but only to get the original and do take out! read more

Cute restaurant deep in the SE. Place was full when I got here, but was able to get seated fairly quickly. My congee got to me quick, but my steam took a while. Price point is on par Congee - the congee was tasty and there was a good amount of preserved eggs. The pork was minced rather than actual slices of pork meat, which is not what I'm used to, but it's fine. All in all though, the congee was tasty and hit my craving. As an addition, I also ordered some Chinese donuts to go with the congee. It's not a must, but it's a nice addition. Steam roll with Chinese sausage - the noodle texture was thin, smooth, and bouncy. There was a good balance of flavor from the sauce. Could use a little bit more fillings though. read more

We came here for dinner on a Thursday night and it was full when we got there. The waiting list is a bit confusing, as it isn't one, and you have to keep track of who was there before you. There was only one person attending to the tables, which made it more difficult. We were approached a few times, but there were a few groups ahead of us and had to tell the waitress that they came first. Approximately 25 minutes elapsed from when we first arrived to finally being seated. When we finally were seated, we were given menus and a warm cup of milk, which was amazing by the way and brought nostalgia back from when I was a child. This is where having 1 waitress became a bigger burden and we could see why the wait time took awhile. From being seated, another 20 minutes elapsed to finally putting in order in, and then another 20 minutes to getting the food. The rice rolls were really good, but I would skip the noodles and just order rice rolls if we were to come back. We sat for another 10 minutes after telling the waitress we were done only to realize that we should just go up and wait at the front counter to pay. The overall experience was okay due to the lack of service. It would made things go better if they got some more help, but we chalked it up to the restaurant being relatively new. Food quality was decent. I didn't hate my experience here, but I wouldn't be in a rush to go back. read more

It is hard to find good steam rice rolls in Portland besides finding them during dim sum. A place dedicated to steam roll, is a must try. There are quite a few selections of steam rice rolls and steam rice noodles. Although the menu is a bit confusing and needs a little bit more clarification, I was able to meddle through with a little explanation. While waiting for the food, the place is modern and cute. The color theme is gold, green, white and a lot of orange. Orange walls, orange chairs and counter tops. Result: Although as it is fun and exciting to have something different in the Portland area, but there is something missing in the rice rolls. They give too little sauce, I had to go ask for more. The sauce is missing fragrant, just very plain in my opinion. The rice roll is a bit thin, but overall fun to try once. It will take a lot of convincing to go back. Cash or card okay. Parking is tight, small lot. You might need to park on the street when it gets busy! read more

So happy a steam roll place opened in Portland! It's so delicious and the prices are fair. Ambiance is clean and casual, and the service is friendly and quick. Came on a Tuesday afternoon time so no rush and lots of seating. We loved being welcomed with free sweet soymilk to start us off! We ordered beef Chang fen, you tiao Chang fen, sichuan lo mian and wonton soup. Everything was really delicious and authentic, but of course the Chang fen was the star. Thin and chewy, and lots of filling inside. We liked it so much we got two Chang fen to go for my brother. We'll definitely come back to try more flavors of Chang fen and other steam noodles! read more
