This is my go-to if I'm eating in the food court because their tofu bowls are good and come with a lot of tofu. I do think it's still a little pricey though

By far, the worst fried rice I've ever had! The terrible taste and smell of that thing which they call it "butter"!??? How about adding some seasoning, sesame oil and soy sauce to your so called "fried rice" instead of "butter"!

If I had a dollar for every time this place failed to open on time, I could probably retire soon.

Used to love this place and want to come back every weekend (and trust me, I would) but they changed the menu and got rid of my favorite dishes. A huge loss but the new food isn’t as good tbh. Probably not coming back.

I will not be returning to buy food here or recommend to my work colleagues. The front server on cashier this lunch (12pm) was incredibly unprofessional. I could see my spring rolls on the counter wide open. No one was around apart from me and my colleagues. I asked her if they were my spring rolls and if I could have them. She said yes they were mine and that I would have to wait for her to bag someone else’s food. I asked her again if I could have my order as the box was wide open and already sitting there 3 minutes for no reason as it was not busy! she gave me a dirty look a number of times and handed my spring rolls and sauce to me without a bag. Disgusting customer service! And trying to serve me cold food!Please train her in customer service or get rid of her. My colleagues and I will not be returning.
Fusion places are always tricky—it’s hard to replicate and mix multiple cuisines well—but Rice Crook does a really good job and I’ll be back! I’ve lived all over East and Southeast Asia my whole life and liked how this place fused flavors from across the region. The rice bowls are my go-to, and while this place isn’t cheap, the portions of meat (protein) are generous. The popcorn chicken was tasty (and would be stellar if even more crispy) and I tried the “mystery item” and was not disappointed! (Hint: It was a combination of some of the other menu items/options.) The location is also family friendly and spacious, in the Ballston Quarter’s roomy basement food court.

The old menu and food was sooo good. I would eat here all the time. They've recently changed their entire menu and sadly its just not what it used to be. The food is much more bland. Bring back the old menu!
