Rice Junky is such a pleasant surprise! The food is flavorful, fresh, and served in generous portions. Everything tastes well-balanced and satisfying. The staff are friendly and the service is quick, making it perfect for a casual meal or takeout. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to!

The drink selection was limited; soda, water, and a few Korean drinks in bags. The drinks in a bag would need ice that way it's not too sweet.
I ordered the kimchee tuna triangle sushi. That was really good!
My husband ordered the bulgogi Kimbap and the meat was super dry. The bulgogi kimbap was packed inside of a small box and about 10 pieces.

Really neat place and friendly staff. I ordered the beef bulgolgi sandwhich thinking it was interesting. Wet mushy bread and salty bulgulgi was gross. I'll try something else next time but I'm afraid to try any more of their sandwiches.

This spot is super tiny but busy so ordering ahead is a pro tip. There are not any tables for eating, just a counter.
I enjoyed the egg-salad sandwich with ham, cucumber, corn, and buttered wheat bread quite a lot. The pork bulgogi onigiri had great flavor, and I was quite impressed by the inventive wrap that separates the nori so that it doesn't get damp.
I was not quite so excited by the bacon kimbob, in part because I like my bacon crispy and this wasn't quite there. It's also quite dry.
Other Rice Junkies in the Bay Area have a specialty wrap with macaroni salad and a range of sauces, but this seems to be the first one that they're experimenting with toast-based items more. I did not try the Issac toast, which is their signature item here that features an omelet inside of bread. I would go back to try that.

I really wanted to like this place. I think it’s got great decor (efficient in how they used the space), hardworking staff, and is incredibly instagramable (both in terms of the wings on the wall while you wait and the way the food is presented and packaged).
We ordered a bunch of items: fish cake kimbap, onigiris, rice cakes, the combo Issac and the bulgogi sandwich. The onigiris and the kimbap were probably the most appetizing - but nothing extraordinary. The rice cakes were also okay, but a little pricey for its portion size. The sandwiches, however, felt like they were constructed for the snap/gram: great colors and great variety of items stuffed in. Taste-wise, I think it tried too hard to mix in western flavors and was a little too greasy. The bulgogi sandwich almost tasted like a Philly cheesesteak but with very sweet beef. Meanwhile, the jam/sauce of the Issac sandwich similarly took away from the overall sandwich. Great for sharing, but probably too much as an individual meal.

I am not sure how to describe how I feel about this place because the combo issac toast that I ordered is something unique. After ordering this twice, the only thing that I can say that this is a good sandwich. Especially at the price it goes for ~8.50 (can't exactly remember) and with tax its goes for about 9.37.
The only flaw that I can say about this sandwich is that it can get messy to eat so watch out if you need to make a good impression.
Note: Take out only so plan accordingly where you're going to eat. The parking lot can get filled up easily since its in a plaza filled with a lot of other businesses.
Would I come back? I definitely would.
To people who are expecting the same rice junky menu from the other locations, this place's menu is different.
This is a cute little take out place with fresh yummy Kim bap and onigiri but Korean style. And great sandwiches. Tteboki was very good.

Absolutely loved their egg Kimbap—fresh ingredients and very filling. But their sandwiches were a bit too saucy for my taste... I would still come back to try more varieties of Kimbap. :)

Excellent food and quick service. We ordered the smoked salmon sandwich, combo Isaac, ham and cheese Isaac, and the beef kimbap. All had good flavors and tasted fresh. Finally was able to try this place. They close early at 3pm so we never got a chance to try it. So glad we tried it today for an early lunch. Good price for the food. Most items were between $5-8. We will be returning to try their other items. Highly recommend.
The best! If you want good Korean food, this is the place.
