Rice Bird NYC is a charming restaurant that serves a variety of Japanese-inspired dishes. Their rice balls are a standout, with a perfect balance of chewy rice. The onigiri selection is impressive, featuring options like meat and surf and turf. The tea service allows customers to adjust the sweetness to their taste. The clay pot dishes and ginger sauce are also recommended. The menu is broadly Asian, with offerings like Taiwanese fried chicken, Malaysian chicken curry, and Thai pork jowl.
The staff is very friendly and remembers returning customers without being intrusive. They maintain a respectful approach, which enhances the dining experience. Customers have praised the delicious onigiri and the fresh, high-quality ingredients used in the dishes, including dumplings, spring rolls, edamame, and the flavorful General Tso's chicken. Many have noted the generous portions, making it an affordable and satisfying option, especially for NYU students. The cozy vibe of this small mom-and-pop spot in the East Village is appreciated, and it's a place worth supporting.
