    Pad see ew
    Yara F.

    Walked in on a Saturday night with a friend around 7 PM and were seated immediately. We wanted a late dinner to share, and were happy with the dumplings and pad see ew that we got! The inside of the restaurant has a good amount of seating, it's pretty comfortable, and the service was quick!

    Chicken Pad Thai
    Stephon M.

    Pretty solid local spot. Eating in person is better than takeout. All the noodles are great. Service is on point too! Sushi was solid as i had a spicy yellow tail. I recommend the drunken noodles with beef. Ambiance is pretty nice here too especially at the window where you can eat and people watch.

    Vegetable Basil with Steamed Tofu
    Elias G.

    I've been to Sweet Rice countless times and am never disappointed. Usually I go for sashimi, a fish dish, or drunken noodles with tofu. I wanted to try something a bit more veggie-packed, though, so i opted for the Vegetable Basil; it was good! The steamed tofu I added rounded out the dish well with brown rice, and I liked it enough to add to the top of my rotation! As always, it was a bit busy but not loud, and the staff were very friendly; we did sit by the door, so it was cold with the winter wind, but nothing I couldn't ignore.

    The stingy amount of rice that the restaurant allowed me to have.

    Good flavor on the Tofu Avocado Curry dish but horrible with rice. Not even one cup worth of rice.

    Haven't been to Sweet rice in a bit but decided to stop in. Historically we have enjoyed this restaurant, but they must've changed something with their chef or food because we had a very bad experience dining here. Probably will not be back.

    Pad C-U with shrimp
    Olaedo E.

    My mom orders for takeout from here often and there's always quite a few people dining inside when we go to pick up. I really like the pad c-u. It's very tasty. The basil fried rice is good. I always ask for them to make my food spicy and they don't deliver, but the food is still flavorful. Their portions always vary. A lot of the time, the container isn't even full. The sweet sticky rice with mango is my absolute favorite.

    This is my go to Thai spot- it always hits. I get the crispy chicken drunken noodles -highly recommend. Their sushi is also really good and I love the Thai iced tea

    I stopped in for sashimi lunch. Fish wasn't the best grade but edible. I wouldn't mind stopping in again, but probably for their cooked Thai menu. Pleasant staff.

    Panang curry chicken - tasty
    Ronny T.

    Interesting Thai and sushi bar(?j. We stuck to the Thai menu and enjoyed the delicious food. We had the crispy chicken, panang curry chicken, and Thai basil vegetables. Everything was good and I particularly liked the crispy chicken dish. Service was good and the vibe is of a local neighborhood place.

    The food is very good. I usually order the Drunken Noodle and pot stickers. I go there often.

    This is our go to sushi spot! My personal favorite is the sweet heart roll or a spicy yellowtail roll.

    Food is good, just some times you may get more food sometimes less. Usually rice and noodles are reliable, sushi not so much.

I was guided to my party right away, offered warm or cold water, and immediately felt welcomed -- the kind of service that lets you settle in and enjoy your evening. Our server was gracious throughout the meal -- answering questions, checking in at just the right moments, and making sure we had everything we needed. Now let's talk food -- because Zaku lets you choose your own experience. If you want to keep it simple, grab some sushi. If you want to take it up a notch, go for sushi and combo plates. If you're in the mood for something hearty, the entrée options deliver. They also offer wine, beer, and other spirits, so you really get to decide how you want to take flight. We ordered a variety: orange chicken with rice, a combo platter filled with everything from edamame to octopus, and I enjoyed shrimp tempura maki with bibimbap (they kindly removed the beef for me), plus miso soup and a Sprite. Everything was flavorful and beautifully presented. The space is cozy yet lively, giving you room to relax and enjoy your meal. The menu is robust -- so many choices my guests had trouble deciding! Zaku gave great food, great service, and a great experience. I'll absolutely be back.

    Extremely fresh fish with generous portions in a casual, underground space…read more I think this is a reasonably priced establishment for the level of fish (phenomenal) and service (reasonable and attentive, but not like a fancier sit down restaurant) that you get. I am always surprised at how full I am when I leave! I'm stuffed every time. There is complementary miso soup with all of the bowls I've tried, outlined below. I really loved all of the bowls I've tried but my favorites are probably the Sake Aisuru Don and Kuromon Don. I just prefer more salmon to more tuna though, and they're all very good! Food: - Sake Aisuru Don: their classic all-salmon bowl! I loved the larger cuts of salmon, and I was pleasantly surprised that even the more pulverized salmon was flavorful! - Kuromon Don: loved the yellowtail in this! Each fish comes with two pieces (except the mackerel for which there are four), and I liked the sampler style for the salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and izumidai. - Maguro Toro Don: so much tuna! And all such high quality. The otoro was so fatty that it practically melted in my mouth without chewing. - Sake Maguro Hamachi Don: a mix of salmon, blue fin tuna, and yellowtail. I liked the yellowtail in this a lot and found that it stood out the most from the other two fish in this particular bowl!

    Came to Boston for a work trip and really wanted to eat something light and healthier. I loved it…read moreso much I came back twice! I came during lunchtime on a Monday. It was adequately busy but still had seats open. The lunch menu is very affordable! If you can, I'd highly recommend going for lunch instead of dinner. Service was really quick! Received my meal in like 5-7 mins after ordering. Fish was super fresh and I really liked the different textures in the Hoseki Don. I also added in negitoro. They gave me a big clump of it! The second time I went back, I ordered take out so I could eat it at the airport for dinner. I ordered the Sake Maguro Hamachi don, added ikura and negitoro. Again, so impressed with the quality of the fish and the size of it. They didn't skimp out and really enjoyed the thickness of the sashimi despite it only being 3 pieces. It was a very satiating bowl. Cant wait to come back next time again!
