Rice and Oak Reviews
Excellent brisket fired rice and curry. I was disappointed no one called the cops on my 1 year old as she is extremely cranky and mean.
We've been wanting to try this restaurant since they opened up and we finally went there for my birthday dinner, with my in-laws. The food is absolutely delicious and service is impeccable. Everything we ordered was outstanding. They even surprised me with a birthday dessert and song at the end of our dinner. 10/10, would recommend. We will definitely be returning!
I was looking for a new spot for dinner to celebrate my birthday and it was suggested for me to try this restaurant's. From the moment I walked in until dessert I had the best experience. Great food, great energy, everyone was very attentive and the food was amazing. Hope to be able to come back and try again!

Rice and Oak in Dripping Springs offers a delightful dining experience with delicious food and attentive service. The restaurant is praised for its outstanding dishes, including the brisket rice bowl, brisket pad Thai, and brisket masaman, which has been recently updated with crispy strings of fried onions or potato straws. Guests enjoy the great energy and cozy ambiance, although the narrow space can make conversation difficult when busy. Service is generally very good, with some reviewers noting it can be slow at times, possibly due to being understaffed. The restaurant also makes memorable moments, such as surprising birthday guests with desserts and a song. While the menu is impressive, some mention the brisket could be a little tougher and that certain staples like Thai Green Curry are missing. Overall, Rice and Oak is considered the best restaurant in the city, providing a unique blend of flavors and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps customers eager to return.
