I only get pick up here some can't speak on Atmosphere, but the food...I don't want to say how good it is, either by taste or value, because I want to keep it secret, but I can't! SSSOOOOO GOOD! Be advised if you truly like spicy and I am not talking about fake spicy but the real thing that will clear out your sinuses and make you cry a little bit, then go for the max. Otherwise choose wisely. One of my favorite spots for food. Lately my bowls have seemed packed to the gills which give me 2 servings so I appreciate it. Always tastes fresh. Service super fast. Nice folks as well. Thanks and see you again soon!

Hands down, top to bottom, the best restaurant in the area. Frank, Gabe, and their crew have consistently turned out the same amazing quality meals since the days of the food truck. Have you ever had a year of happiness from food? I've had that 3 times in my long life, and Ricewood is one of them. Their smoked meats stand up to ANY other place in the country. Each one of them is a 10/10, and you can not go wrong trying any of them. If you're looking to taste something different, try the chicken. Perfectly smoked and juicy, seasoned with flavors you'd not expect. Try everything at least once. The bowls are out of this world combining flavors you'd not ever expect. And don't be scared away by prices. This is the real deal, with quality food AND they pay their employees real wages. Order ahead for fast (compostable!) carryout, or walk in and grab a chair. If you are getting a carry out, order a side of meat in addition to your order because the holy scents wafting from your bag in the car will have your mouth watering. Before you know it, you'll be clawing at the bag on the passenger seat like you're a starved raccoon. Having a side of 4 ribs sucked down before exiting the parking lot is a perfect amuse-bouche.

This was the best food that I have experienced in a long time. The pork belly was moist with just the right amount of crisp on the skin!!

We walked in and the music and vibe were a great way to start our Saturday. The owner was working the cash register and was oozing passion. He greeted us with a smile and walked us through the menu. We got 2 rice bowls, medium spice, pork belly and brisket, a side of waffle fries, and 2 drinks. While we waited for our food we heard the staff singing along to the 80’s music and genuinely having a great time. When our food was ready they called us by name and delivered to us, piping hot and smelling great. We got all the toppings on our rice bowls and glad that we did. BBQ was top notch, brisket and pork belly melted in our mouths, great fusion of bbq and asian. Great service, great hospitality, great food. The soda machine was pouring Detroit City Hand-Crafted Soda, made with cane sugar- awesome to see. Winning combo all around. Awesome to see people enjoy doing what they do!

I'm in here once or twice a week. No one is doing it like them. The monthly specials are insane. Try the wings if you can catch them when they're available.
The food here is amazing! Pork is my favorite and the rice bowls are always a go to. Barbecue sauce is great. Staff are amazing. Must try spot in ann arbor

I hadn't realized Ricewood had a dedicated location on the West side of Ann Arbor. Same delicious food and fast, friendly service in the new location but only limited seating inside with a view of the strip mall parking lot. I personally prefer the outdoor seating option of their original location. I went with their pork belly rice bowl with pickled red onions and was not disappointed! I will definitely be coming back!

The food and services were absolutely grate! However I do suggest less sauce or so put inside the bowls, the brisket was amazing. But it was a little too salty. Keep it up!

We ordered catering from Ricewood on 7/19/25 for my daughters high school grad party. As usual, ricewood did not disappoint. Everyone at our party was so complimentary of the food and how delicious it was. This is our go to BBQ place. The one star reviews are crazy. We’ve never had a bad experience.
