Attentive, accommodating, fast, and reasonable. I came in around 9:15 a.m. for what was apparently on the lunch menu, but I ate from the available breakfast menu. The menu schedule is not apparent from their website or other menu materials found here or elsewhere at the time of this posting. I have included the schedule here: Breakfast is from 8:00 to 11:00 Lunch from 11:00 to 3:00 Dinner from 3:00 to 8:00

Had a short while before we had to go to a meeting so we serendipitously stopped in. Our waitress was so good and very helpful. Jolene even sung part of the song that is her name. Daniela showed us how to use chopsticks by wrapping them in a napkin in a certain way. We had Vegan Rolls and Cheese Rolls. Dessert was a Thai roll. All were delicious! Service was quick!! The bathrooms were clean. The one thing that could be improved on was the lighting. More lightbulbs needed to be put in the overhead ceiling lights. Also a different font and larger font on the menu would be helpful. The young men who were cooking and preparing the sushi were delightful! The entire staff took pride in what they were doing. We would recommend Rice Kitchen and will be back.

It's official. It was not a fluke that our first visit was amazing. This place is wonderful. We have had the whiteboard special rolls Snow White (not pictured), French Kiss (pictured on right), and Spicy Tuna (pictured on left). Miso soup and salad were tasty and refreshing. Hot and sour soup is different than what I've had in the area. The curry is flavorful without having to rely on hot spice. Save room for the fried cheesecake! Will be back as often as I can.

Hands down the best sushi restaurant in the area. Do not get what is on the menu just ask for a chef's special. They can create some of the best rolls I have ever eaten. The service is always great, the employees are extremely nice and helpful. The owners very customer focused and friendly to talk to. My family and I have been there several times and have never been disappointed. When I want sushi this is where I go!

This place is amazing. Food is delicious Service is fantastic. We were visiting our sick Granny and even she was able to eat a little so glad we found this place.

Very good place nice and clean very nice people working here. Answer my questions about the food . I got the walnuts shrimp and Broccoli it was delicious. I got the appetizers with four different things in it. Very good i could have just eaten that. My husband got the fish dish is so very good. It was good fusion of America, Japanese, and Thai. My husband said it was not spicy but to me it had a kick. If you are in the area or you want to try something different give a try. Its not to from Knoxville. We will be back. Hats off to them.

Rice Kitchen is sooo good! The only problem is that I can’t come here more often! Service is always quick. Sushi rolls are the perfect size and the Chef’s have a great memory of what I like and what I may want to try. Their recommendations are spot on. Highly recommend the Rice Kitchen to everyone.
