What an amazing experience! The restaurant was spacious and beautiful, the wait staff were accommodating and efficient, and the food was delicious, reasonably priced, and large-portioned! My partner and I ordered the spicy basil pad thai, khao soi, vegetarian dumplings, summer rolls, and mango sticky rice, all of which were excellent! I'm usually not much for going out to eat these days (owing to high prices and low quality), but Rice Violet showed me again what a great dining experience could be.

Vegetarian options: Plenty of great vegetarian options and even soy-based meats!

Hands down one of the best massaman curries I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a lotttt. So flavorful, creamy and with great textural variation. I can’t wait to come back again!

Recently tried this place for the first time and went back again the same week! The food is yummy and inexpensive. A major plus is the service—the quickest I’ve ever experienced. The staff are also nice. I had nooo complaints either time I visited.

The samosa pockets are delicious! I had the Worcester volcano (purple rice only) the first time I went and ordered it again the second time. 100% recommend.

I bit into a screw that was inside a eggroll. Rice violet used to be a fan favorite in the house but I’m cautious now. I’m glad I didn’t swallow the screw on accident.

Very good food and a kind server. Lots of Vegan options. My girlfriend had a very good pad see ew, which they made with kale, an interesting twist. Very enjoyable though.

This was the BEST “crazy noodles” I’ve ever had. Sooo yummy. My UberEats driver delivered the wrong meal so I picked up mine and the staff were so kind and the food was still hot.

It was a really nice place to visit with friends. The food was delicious(better than chashu Ramen:p). I tried the tofu pad thai(They do NOT have halal meat unfortunately) and that was excellent!Quick service, nice staff, and delicious food.Ideal time would be on weekdays 12-3 as that's the lunch hour and prices are much lower. I rated their atmosphere low because there's a lot of background exhaust noise, which ws a bit frustrating, but apart from that, it was good.Do try the candies at the counter. They were awesome too.

Vegetarian options: Tofu

Dietary restrictions: No halal meat but they did have vegetarian options

I get takeout from Rice Violet on average once a week at least. I am obsessed, I never get tired of it. I've tried a variety of menu items and all of them have been excellent. The Khao Soi is my favorite. Great portions, you get a lot of food for your money and everything is reasonably priced. When I have dined in the service is always amazing. Favorite place in Worcester!

Dietary restrictions: I have a gluten allergy and they are always very accommodating. Most menu items can be modified to be made GF and the menu is clearly labeled identifying the safe options.
