Best Thai food in DC. Such a friendly staff and a cool story for the market downstairs!

We went in on a Thursday evening for a quick dinner. Things were generally pleasant. The restaurant was not particularly full, but did get busier shortly after our arrival. Our waitress was polite without being overly friendly. I was looking for something that was no longer on the menu, but she made some suggestions. Overall, two out of three of our party were very pleased with their food. Myself included. We both had variations of the noodle soup. The pineapple chicken was reported as just being alright—disproportionate with three broccoli florets to accompany the portion of meat.
After getting to go boxes, the table clearing felt rude and intrusive. As to hurry us along. Giving the benefit of the doubt that this was not intentional.

Please be aware that kitchen really closes at least one hour before their posted closing time, I was there 55 mins before and was not seated. That should be made very clear everywhere to avoid wasting people time.

A great place to grab a really good meal, prices are reasonable for DC. Staff are attentive but don’t hover. Cocktails are scrumptious. Be sure to visit the market afterwards!

Good and service were excellent. I had the ramen dish and was very happy. It’s a little bit loud inside due to acoustics. Would def go again next time I’m in DC.

I've been coming to Rice for well over ten years, and it is probably one of the most consistent restaurants in DC. The food is always great. Laid back atmosphere. Tough to find parking easily, but well worth it

Great happy hour and nice mix of Thai food and sushi options. Also a store downstairs you can get grab-and-go lunches around $11-15 and buy Asian staples like curry paste, lemongrass, Soju, and poke/sushi dishes or by the pound.

Rice is one of our go-to spots in D.C. The drunken noodles are packed with flavor, the steamer buns are soft and satisfying, and the crispy wings hit every time. It’s a great option whether you’re dining in with family or grabbing takeout. Consistently solid food and service.

So nice. Kind staff, good food, fun drinks, and good vibes. We had dinner in the patio, and most everyone who passed by said to their friends “this place is great/underrated” totally agree. The shop downstairs is cool too. 5/5

As much as I’d love to keep this place a secret because it’s so good I can’t help how much I like Rice. My go tos are their pad see ewe and pad Thai. You also can’t go wrong with their crab rangoons, papaya salad and spring rolls as an appetizer. If you get takeout they’re reliable and speedy. The downstairs market is also excellent, especially if you need very specific sauces for Asian dishes or a last minute bottle of wine.
