I was in the area running errands and noticed this place advertised lunch specials. Thai food sounded good and I was starting to get hungry, so I decided to stop in. When I walked in, I was the only customer. I was greeted by the server and told to seat myself. I planned to order the steamed chicken and rice from the lunch menu along with a side of tom kha soup. After waiting for a while without anyone coming to take my order, I went up to the counter myself since I was short on time. I ordered the steamed chicken with rice (khao man gai) and the tom kha soup, requesting spice level 2 for the soup and 1 for the chicken. I was told the chicken didn't come with a spice level, but the soup could be made a 2. The soup came out and was actually pretty good. After waiting quite a while for the entrée, I checked in and was told they didn't have it. At that point I was confused . I asked what I had ordered then, since I was starving and had no idea what I was waiting for all this time. What Thai restaurant doesn't have chicken and rice in stock? Especially if it's advertised as a lunch special. Long story short, I left hungry. The service was disappointing and the communication could have been much better. I ended up going across the street to Chick-fil-A instead. read more

Sweet Rice - Came here for lunch specials! - Laotian Near Me - Frisco, Texas

Did this place change hands? I've eaten here so many times but today was awful. No one answers the phone. Calls either till to voice mail or the calls are sent there automatically. None of the contact links work. You can't order online. I've been eating Thai food for 35 years and this is the worst I've ever eaten. There's no sauce. No flavor. It's like they didn't even try. There was one table occupied when I had to walk in to order and they were already eating. read more

We had a wonderful experience! Today is my birthday and we wanted to try a new Thai place and we are very happy that we found Sweet Rice. Madison greeted us when we came in and told us we could sit anywhere. We chose a half booth, half table and it was very comfortable. We tried the appetizer rice roll with chicken and peanut sauce and it was delightful. It was a Very light appetizer. For our entrées, we ordered Penang Curry w/chicken and pad Thai w/Chicken at a level two spicy for both of them. We customized our meals to not have bean sprouts or mushrooms and they are happy to cook it that way. Because it was my birthday, Madison offered me a free dessert so we tried the strawberry crepe cake and it was delightful! It came with a warmed up strawberry paste. It was delicious! Five stars all around for everything here tonight. Thank you very much. Oh, and the bus boy was very nice too! read more

Food was good. We found the portion for the curry a bit small. The beef Jerky was just okay. I wish they cut it up in strips. The curry was really good . The noodle dish was also good. The thai tea was really refreshing. Service was okay. read more

A lot of things to really like here if you're in the area and in the mood for Thai! The Tom Kha Gai soup is pretty good. The flavors of the lemon grass mixed with the fullness of the coconut milk always make for a great combo. The Penang curry was also great! I think it goes well with the fried tofu. The crab fried rice was probably my favorite thing there. I'm not sure how much crab was in it but whatever was in it was pretty good. And then finally the pad see ew, which was, for me, the most disappointing thing. I know the menu said something like a house special secret sauce was on it but i didn't expect it to be as sweet as it was. The beef in it was also tough. Just missed the mark for me. So all in all, I would come back here again for the first three dishes but would stay away from the noodles read more

Chicken fried rice, pork riblets, and tom yum soup was our order. Originally I ordered through DoorDash and the option for drone delivery was available and it boasted "no tip" on the app. I thought I would give it a try. The estimated delivery kept changing on the DoorDash app. I called the restaurant and she stated the order was picked up by drone carrier 30 minutes ago. So I called DoorDash Flytrex and they said the department I needed had a long hold and offered full refund. I cancelled and drove to Sweet Rice myself to have the order remade. I absolutely recommend the restaurant! Food was hot and fresh. I will not try drone Flytrex again until the service really takes off and has established a good result. read more

Sweet Rice - PAD KEE MOW DINNER YELLOW CURRY DINNER - Laotian Near Me - Frisco, Texas

Panang chicken was absolutely amazing! I placed an online order and it was perfectly fulfilled.

Did management/cook change within the past year? The food was spectacular a year ago but not that great this time around. Salt and Pepper Squid - forgot that it wasn't good last time and it might have been worse this time Papaya Salad - the best thing we tried that night Tom Kha - extremely sour Glass Noodles - sour and not spicy at all though I asked for a 5/5 Mixed Veggies - meh Servers were nice and professional. The Tom Kha soup took about 20 minutes to come out. I was so excited to take my friends to try Sweet Rice since I remember it being amazing last time. So sad were we all. read more

Friendly server, and the food was delicious! Really enjoyed my meal and will be back soon.

Ordered take out tonight and when i brought my good home it was all incorrect. When i called to let the restaurant know of this, a young man with attitude answered the phone. he did let me re order my food for pick up yet again. When walked in to pick up he was so rude with attitude AGAIN. I asked for an extra peanut sauce because the first order was missing it and he replied when " we don't have any" as i saw all the premade sauces behind him. When i got home and eating my order of spring rolls i saw RAW shrimp in my spring rolls. Ive never seen this before. Lets just say all of my food went in the trash and a big waste of my time to go back They also skimp you on the amount of food you get for the price. read more

Ok, so at this point this is just sad and laughable. After so many attempts hoping it will get better, it hasn't. I try not to write a review, but I think they need to know. I come to this place for authenticity and to support my local Asian restaurants. The quality has just declined to the point where I will no longer return. As you can see in the photo, they went cheap on the cabbage, they used to offer a full wedge, I got the left over cabbage. Papaya salad shouldn't be tasteless either. Also where's the full crabs they used to put in? Portion has gotten smaller and smaller. This was just my most recent visit, previous visits were about the same with food items either missing, incorrect, or they just don't care anymore. Not worth going back. WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU GUYS? read more

Sweet Rice - Just sad and laughable at this point. - Laotian Near Me - Frisco, Texas

Love the Frisco location. Food is always prepared as ordered and tastes great. Portion to priced is also very reasonable.

I am a little torn with the star rating this time, but I will explain below. Food - 4 out of 5 Service - 5 out of 5 Atmosphere - 4/5 - A very clean restaurant that I feel like it is close to Little Elm more than Frisco. This restaurant can be hard to miss. Staff - 5/5 - Unfortunately, there was 2 issues with our pickup order: 1. Papaya Salad - We asked for Level 5 spicy, and clearly it was level 1. 2 Lao Spicy Sausage Combo - Unfortunately, there was a piece of hair in the sticky rice, and I am not really upset at all. It happens. We called back, and they refunded these 2 orders for us. They didn't have to do that, but they did, and I really appreciate service like this. Food - What we ordered: Papaya Salad - Thai Style - $8.99 - 3.5/5 - Docking a point since it was not the level of spiciness that we requested, but the flavor was there. Lao Spicy Sausage Combo ($9.99) - 4/5 - Really good flavor. Again, things happen, but I am not going to take away from the dish. I do recommend this dish. Larb Beef ($11.99) - Lao Style - 5/5 - Did a spicy level of 5 and it did not disappoint. Very good dish. Crab Fried Rice ($13.99) - 4/5 - Level 5 and it was very good. I just wish there was more crab meat for the price. I didn't take pictures since it was a pickup order, and it is hard to make those look appealing. Although there were 2 'hiccups' on our order, they resolved this without any hesitation. I do want to thank them for that again. Would I come back? I would say yes, because I want to know how spicy they make their papaya salad. :) read more

Excellent choice for Thai food. Quiet atmosphere, the presentation was great from appetizer to entree to dessert. I had the Crab Rangoon as an appetizer and Spicy Thai Basil for the entree. My wife tried the coconut mango sticky rice (her favorite Thai dessert) and it did not disappoint. The cost for the meal was a bit more than I expected and watch when you order the Thai Ice Tea... they will charge you 50 cents extra for half cup of ice and $1.00 for no ice! read more

Don't eat here much but I recall how much I liked their steamed veggies. Today I ordered the chicken satay. My husband picked up our order and I'm pretty sure they served me chicken that was around yesterday or the day before. There is no way it was made to order. Super dry, hard, and tasteless. It's a shame! I've been spoiled by places like Tahn Thai in McKinney. read more

Like its name, food was REALLY sweet to the point my mouth felt super dry afterwards. It was overwhelming especially the pad thai. It was disappointing they didn't have the spicy chili sauce-- instead had chili oil. Overall, the taste was too sweet for my tasting. read more

We used to order from here occasionally, I can definitely say after today I will never ever order from here again. I wish I could give 0 star in the app! We ordered calamari and said specifically NO GREEN ONIONS, and this is WHAT WE GET?! Not only it is full of green onions, it has only SEVEN pieces of little rings!!! SEVEN Pieces?!!! with 3 pounds of useless onions and carrots and lettuce .....we called them and they said that's what they serve..... and they raised the price?!!!! This place is DONE and I would not be surprised if they close in 3 months Oh.... By the way, I ordered fried rice and after finishing it , I have to eat a whole bunch of snacks to be full..... you get the idea right? ....." that's what they serve".... read more

Sweet Rice - Calamari, only 7 pieces, and raised price, this place is trash - Laotian Near Me - Frisco, Texas

So glad I found this gem! Food here is amazing and service is great as well. I've been here twice and each time I have left very full and happy. Everything I've tried was delicious but a few of my favorites were the Lao spicy sausage, crabmeat fried rice, sweet rice chicken wings, papaya salad, and shrimp po tak soup. First of all, you must get the Lao spicy sausage with the sticky rice. So good! It comes with a sauce that pairs well with the sausage and rice. The crabmeat fried rice is also an excellent choice and has lots of meaty crab chunks in the rice. The chicken wings were also delicious and had the perfect amount of crunch and flavor to them. We ordered the Lao style papaya salad which was flavorful but I could've done without the raw crab that was in the salad. The shrimp po tak soup was delicious and a nice refreshing soup to accompany our meal. I've also tried the Thai herbal chicken which was basically fried chicken and a sauce on the side. Good but nothing that stood out to me. The crispy fried pork riblets were a little too dry for me and there wasn't enough meat on them. I also tried the panang curry which was good but nothing special. Overall, I really like this spot and I have several go to dishes that I will always order. Solid spot for some good Lao and Thai food! read more

Placed a to go order through DoorDash on April 1, 2020. Ordered mongolian beef, panang curry, crab fried rice and 2 pork riblets. Total $60.57 When picking up, the restaurant said they had no Pork riblet. Said credit would be issued. 6 days passed no credit. Wanted to dispute via DoorDash but the app said "Due to your order history you can't place a dispute" ????? WTH. Filed a dispute with my credit card. Waiting for results. I took picture of their itemized receipt which had no Pork Riblets. read more

We have been looking forever for authentic Lao + Thai food and we found it! Let's start from the beginning when we walked in and was greeted by Kwan the sweetest hostess/waitress! The ambience was laid back and quiet. This was around 6pm on a Sunday evening. Our tummy's growled looking at the extensive options on the menu. After looking at the menu which seemed to be an hour but was actually 5 mins, we opted for the Duck Fat fried rice, Marinated Grill Beef, Chicken Larb, Tum Yum soup and Papaya Salad (Lao style). First off let's talk about how tasty the Duck Fat fried rice is! Not greasy at all the fried rice was cooked in a slight perfection of duck fat, beef, shrimp and chicken. Topped with green onions it was light and savory. Simply perfect. Then, the Marinated Steak. We had ours prepared medium and the flavors of the marinade exploded in my mouth. It was garlicky, oniony, sweet semi glazed sauce. Cooked to perfection. The Chicken Larb was sour, spicy and lots of flavors. it came with lettuce so I can make tiny lettuce wraps to fit our hungry mouths. Better than most authentic Larb I've ever had in my life. And I was born in Thailand. The Tum Yum Soup was light and delicate. The common galangal ginger and spices warmed our insides. Definitely a good starter as they come in lunch portion size or dinner size. And finally we enjoyed all this goodness with a Papaya salad prepared Lao style. The amount of love they put into the flavors to mix this papaya salad was heavenly. Authentic ingredients like how my mom would make it. Overall, you will NOT be disappointed with the food or service of your looking for amazing comfort Lao Thai food. And Kwan goes above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of while taking care of 8 other customers! Kwan is Hostess with the mostest! read more

I ordered here a lot. The crab fried rice hits every time! Great food and fast service. This is a long overdue 5 star review+

Sweet Rice is my go-to for takeout, and they usually have my order ready on time. While there have been a few instances of longer waits, the restaurant is adequately staffed.

We just picked up our take out order and this they packed curry and rice in a horizontal container, by the time it got home in less than ten minutes drive, the curry leaked all through the bag in the car and the other order, it overflowed in to the foil containing rice and barely anything left to eat, not to mention all the mess we have to clean up When i called the restaurant about this, they said this is how they pack lunch orders and they cant help, way to do business, and that our driver was bad, who packs curries like that Never going back again read more

Great service and food. One of the better Thai restaurants in the area. I've tried many things on the menu. I normally do not like anyone's fried rice but mine and my mom's. But their fried rice is great here. The wings, egg rolls, herbal chicken, riblets, noodle dishes, curries and Thai basil were also good. The only dishes I didn't care for were the sweet and sour chicken, pho, and Kao Piak Sen Soup. I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area. read more

Soooo excited to have a Lao food place to go to! At first I was a little confused as why there are 2 Thai restaurants in the same plaza. I love Chilli Thai too, but sweet rice is more Laotian so I'm happy! The kids meal has just an egg omelette with sticky rice, I personally love eating my papaya salad with egg so I was happy!!! They have pho too (just one kind) and one of my sons had that and said it was DELICIOUS! I was unsure at first about pho at a Lao/Thai restaurant, but he loved it! Can't wait to go back and try more! Update---- I have returned with my mama and we had a Lao dish that I can't recall the name of right now, but it was soooo good! My mom also had the lad Na, that wasn't her favorite. But I still love this place. Pretty authentic. read more
