Best Baklava, Hummus & pita chips in Lauderdale period! Great staff, great location, easy parking and great prices! Your order comes in nice insulated bags too! Hands down, 11 out if 10!

Portions are generous and the food was delicious! Just a heads up that if it’s just you and you’re not super hungry, it will probably be a struggle to finish a full Protein Bowl; I honestly could have shared it.

Guillermo Puig

Amazing food, good portions and amazing employees. All time favorite!

Trent Keller

I love coming to Rice Mediterranean! The customer service is always top-notch — the staff is super friendly and welcoming every time. One thing I really appreciate is that they never short me on the protein. The portions are generous, and I always leave satisfied. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great meal with even better service!

I was really disappointed with order. The kabobs were burnt, awfully dry and the portions were surprisingly small for the price. The food lacked quality and care, and it definitely did not meet expectations. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t return or recommend it based on this order

Excellent customer service and food is delicious 😋 👌 happy to return and recommend to my friends and family

I live in the neighborhood and this is my favorite "casual dining" restaurant in all of Las Olas! It's clean, the staff is friendly and the food is AMAZING & full of flavor. If a place serves bland food, I never return. Rice is 10/10 with seasoning and flavors. I always feel healthy when I eat here too b/c I always get meat + rice (or salad) + veggies only. The portions are big as well! Sure, you'll spend $20-$35 (totally worth it) for an entree depending what you get, but it's appropriate for the fresh / quality ingredients and the area it's in. This is NOT "fast food" but it's way less expensive than all the other restaurants downtown where you have a server come to your table. I can't go 2 weeks without stopping in. I def recommend this place to anyone reading this!

J Campbells

We both ordered protein bowls for lunch and what a wonderful combination of flavors. The portions were big enough so that we could save some for dinner. Everything tasted fresh & the restaurant is a great option for "healthy eats" near Las Olas Boulevard.

This places was incredible. The flavor in the chicken, beef and lamb were perfection. The rice was cooked with love. Hummus was perfection. Love the bowls and will have to come back. Super friendly on the stomach and super flavorful. Really nice spot to hit towards the end of the night

Rice is an excellent place to eat! The food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Gustavo went above and beyond with his customer service, friendly and professional. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for great food and outstanding service!

First time I walked in the guys serving me were very nice friendly and helpful with guiding me thru what to order! Great service and great food! I will definitely keep coming back to eat!

Is always clean , amazing quality and really good service.

Great food and natural ingredients! Would go again!

RICE kitchen is my go to and I have it 3-4x a week. Super fresh food, great and friendly staff and always a good experience. Get the Chicken Joojeh platter with a little spicy sumac and thank me later.

Food was amazing! Freshly made and service was fast and friendly. 10/10 if you want something healthy and tasty

Been coming here since November 2024. We work in Las Olas. The crew of Keren, Yunior, Carlos and Gustavo has been incredible, friendly and very accommodating. We’ve been coming back because of their high level of customer service. Thank you guys and looking forward to see you again on Monday!

This was my first time here but definitely won’t be my last. The staff was absolutely amazing! The food was delicious. We got the chicken and beef kabobs and the falafel platters. They were all amazing. So flavorful. The platters come with a lot of food. I highly recommend Rice Mediterranean Kitchen!! You won’t be disappointed.

No complaints really. The place was clean, the food tasted good, and the people were nice.

Carlos is the best! Great place to eat! Fresh and hot all the time! Authentic flavors and generous portions. Spicy roasted chicken is my favorite! Great staff and fast service! Great rewards program! I come here 3 times a week and definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a protein bowl after a workout! Thanks!

Gustavo and Karen and Alex are AMAZING! My order went to the wrong location and they took the time to call the other store and move my order to this location, even though it was 5 min before closing. Wow! Didn’t expect them to be able to help that much and they went above and beyond. Take notes on A++ service!

Incredible Mediterranean food! The concept is awesome and the food is great. Lots of flavors. Highly recommend this spot.

I got the braised beef for lunch on uber eats. It was a BOGO deal, so 2 lunches for $25. Great deal. The food is flavorful and the pickup was quick

I come here every day because it's next to my job, but honestly on the days I don't work I wish I could still come here. This food is Simply Amazing.

Delicious and fresh ! Great Mediterranean flavors All healthy and big size portions Hope you guys will do well in this location🩵

Great, fresh food. Awesome atmosphere and quick and efficient service.

The food was amazing i never eat food like this in my life and good service !

The food was so good and I love that is in the middle of las olas and you can walk to other places after. 10/10

Absolutely delicious food and you get so much for the price, 10/10

Food was fresh and tasty. Good value for the money for Las Olas area as well.

RICE was excellent—fresh flavors, fast service, and super clean. Special shout-out to Gustavo at the register: friendly, patient, and on point with recommendations. We’ll be back!

Fantastic food, lam and beef the best in Downtown Fort Lauderdale. Highly recommend!

Everytime a come here I feel so welcome with great service and food 10/10

Amazing! First time here and the food was so good fresh!

I love this place , beacause it’s great meal , when i eat this , i full all my day! Gustavo give for me the great servise! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Had a great experience at Rice Mediterranean Kitchen! The staff were absolutely amazing—super friendly, patient, and took the time to answer all of our questions about the menu. The food was delicious, fresh, and packed with flavor. You can really taste the quality, and it’s awesome to find a place that serves healthy meals without sacrificing taste. Will definitely be coming back!

Healthiest food option in Las Olas. Freshly made in front of you with good quality ingredients. Lots of plate and bowl options, reasonable prices and super friendly customer service. The staff always welcomes you with a smile and are really passionate about their service and client needs. Great people, great food. Do yourself a favor and try the pistacho baklavas.

I called to learn about placing my first order for pickup or delivery and got Maui (female) at their Catering line and she was simply AMAAZZIINNGG! So polite, patient, knowledgeable, even a bright charming attitude when I playfull got a bit impatient in a dry way that most people don't realize is a bit playful. This seems like a class act of a company from the website and how she represents them! I have yet to order but I'm sure I'll be a long-time customer.

This restaurant is EXCELLENT: delicious, healthy, unique and well priced! The bowls allow you to mix and match various bases and sauces and dips.. And the employees were very kind and patient as we took forever to understand all the options. I wish they had locations outside of Miami so I could become a regular!

The food is great, the staff is nice, and the ambiance is good. I love it! Will come back again next time 👍

Holy balls guys this place is delicious! We got the chicken and the tenderloin kabobs ... soooooo delicious!

this place is amazing! the food is 10/10. so flavorful, clean for the body, and authentic! the portion size is great, i always have leftovers for the next day. to top it all off, the guys that work here are so great. very kind and pleasant. i leave with a smile on my face everytime, i love coming to rice! would totally recommend

I’m on a ketogenic diet, & Rice Kitchen’s keto bowl is a godsend: very filling, good taste, low carbs (how low? it would help a LOT if they reveal the fat, protein, & carbs per bowl—a task for the company of course, not for the staff at the Las Olas branch). Service always congenial & efficient. My go-to place for a quick, balanced, keto-friendly meal!

The chicken joojeh platter is the ultimate meal I’m fully addicted to it. Sumac sauce is a must.

Amazing experience, delicious food, wonderful people! :)

This place never disappoints. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food is amazing too. Super fresh and tasty. I get lunch from here at least twice a week.

Food was delicious. Sirloin kubideh was fantastic. Hummus yummy. Wish we had this in Cincinnati.

Just moved to the area and tried Rice Mediterranean Kitchen for the first time — absolutely loved it! The staff was super friendly and the food was fresh, healthy, and delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back.

I got the protein bowl. The food was great! I wish it I could’ve added more spice to my plate but it was delicious nonetheless. And such a great variety of flavors that a nutritious and high in protein even if you were to do a vegetarian bowl.

The meats are a little too oily, but the spicy chicken (not spicy at all to me) is usually not bad. All other ingredients are always fresh and delicious. UPDATE: The meats are extremely oily now. The first photo was several months ago, but look at it now (2nd photo). I will stop ordering the bowls.

JD provided outstanding service! They were welcoming, knowledgeable about the menu, and checked in at the perfect times. JD made our dining experience comfortable and memorable. Definitely ask for JD if you visit!

Great value for money. Had a bit of everything and was really impressed with the portion size and it all tasted delicious. Would highly recommend and will definitely have again.

We order take out at least once a week. Food is delicious and healthy! Service and quality is consistent. Very friendly staff. Thank you!

We came here with a big group that needed some help ordering, and the staff was so friendly and patient and helpful with us. The food was great, and the portions were very generous! Thanks!

I’ve eaten here twice and really enjoyed the food both times! I wish I could cook like this. I am not much of a foodie so I don’t eat out a lot but I plan to eat here more often. Thank you for offering GF options 💗 The staff are also very nice!

The owner is really cool he gave me extra sauce for free and the food is crazy good with great portion size

We needed a restaurant like Rice on Las Olas. I’ve lived in the area for 3 years and I am extremely happy to have Rice as a lunch and dinner option. My wife and I came in for lunch and ordered a bowl and a kabob platter. We ate their beef, lamb, and felafel. We also had a serving of soup. The quality of the food and the attention the team gives you are both high. I plan on being a regular customer here. Healthy food options with high quality ingredients wrapped up in a great atmosphere. What’s not to like?

Food is amazing. Love their fresh falafel and spicy chicken. Lentils were great. Spicy sumac is delicious too. Highly recommend. Great value too.

I ordered food delivery and it was delicious. The chefs at this restaurant are the coolest.

Rice is fantastic! The food is always fresh and delicious, the restaurant is spotless and well-organized, and the service is top-notch. Gustavo deserves a special shout-out—he’s always amazing. Highly recommend!

Love this place!!! Super recommended. The food was delicious. !! First time in this location and the service was great.

Im here for work for 5 days. This is the first time I saw this place which is close to the work location My god is so good and delicious Very clean, friendly crew, good food reasonable price Try it, you won't regret it👍👌👌👌 I'm very happy I have found this place See puctures and video they talk themselves 😋😋😋😋

Pricey but if you’re looking for a healthy clean meal in the las olas area that’s ready in 10-15 min from online ordering-this is your spot. The sumac sauce is the reason I order maybe every other week for takeaway. Sumac sauce is the magic here 👍. If you’re looking for value-order the side of protein braised brisket for $3. Get some bread at Publix, slice of cheeses and make yourself a deliciously juicy meat sandwich. Plus the nice young man with big eyes behind the counter is friendly and knows my name- the kind of good service that’s hard to find in SoFl.

Great place to have a healthy meal!!

Terrific healthy and tasty 18 dollar dinner of your choice. We enjoyed the bowl with braised lamb, hummus, and roasted chicken. Pls see the photo.

No matter which location this good never disappoints. Great Service, great food and a laidback atmosphere.

Came here on Sunday for a quick bite before the airport. I had a sirloin platter and it was absolutely fresh and delicious. Highly recommend for a no-frills meal.

I have been coming here for lunch for almost a month. The chicken kabob platter is fantastic.

I absolutely love coming to Rice in Fort Lauderdale during lunch. The food is deliciously prepared with healthy options. The staff is always professional and friendly, especially Carlos. Reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend.

I ordered this for the first time and I must say, although the price is hefty, the food is remarkable. Really quality ingredients and the preparation they put in was worth the cost. The vegetarian platter with falafel was very tasty and fresh.

Yummy and very fresh food overall, but the falafel had too much cumin for me. The staff are VERY kind and friendly!!

Just awesome, we came a party of four with a large order. We were helped by Carlos and his team. Place was spotless, kitchen spotless, the guys follow kitchen protocol. Food was fire the beef and chicken is the best. I highly recommend eating here.

Food is always fresh and delicious. This place is very good.

The bowls were great. Slow cooked chicken and braised lamb in the bowls were amazing

If you’re looking for a healthy bowl place, this is top notch. I’m not always in the mood for this type of food. But I think it’s one of the better ones I’ve been to ever. The bowls were gigantic and full of flavor. I’d highly recommend for lunch. The atmosphere was pretty relaxing too.

Fresh and healthy Mediterranean food with great flavor and high-quality ingredients. Well-balanced portions and nicely prepared. A great option if you want to eat well without feeling heavy. Highly recommended

The food is AMAZING! I think I found my new favorite spot! I had the Chicken and Steak platter. Cooked perfect! My wife and I both loved our meals.

We absolutely love this restaurant! The food is always incredibly fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious every single time we come. The portions are HUGE - you definitely get your money's worth and then some!! Carlos is the best and always makes the whole experience even better.

I make it a point to stop in every time I'm in town. The food is delicious and the portions are generous enough that I always have leftovers. Their food is filling without feeling heavy and the staff is always friendly and polite.

I had a wonderful experience, the food was fresh and absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant and peaceful. I loved the kindness of the employees and the cleanliness of the restaurant. I am coming back, highly recommended!

Absolutely delicious food! I ordered via Uber eats and my order was correct, the food was fresh and delicious and it was packaged neatly in the cutest reusable bag (love that!) with napkins and utensils. Their sumac sauce is so good I could drink it. Can’t wait to try more items!

Great value for such fresh & tasty food, very good quality & flavors! Spicy chicken platter had so much food! the salad was very refreshing, the hummus was perfect & the Dolmas were EXCELLENT! And the rice, your namesake, was fluffy and flavorful! I'd order again!

I am so glad find this restaurant. The food is delicious, and the service is incredible. The guys are really patient and very kind. The protein bowl with beef is delicious. The place is clean, and you can see the guy's cleaning around, wish is really good. I will bring all my friends here soon.

I had lunch at Rice Mediterranean Kitchen for the first time this week. Got there around 2:00pm on a Wednesday and there was no crowd. Inside was bright and clean and the menu offered a variety of wraps, bowls and platters. I decided on the falafel fries while my companion ordered the chicken fries. While the service was okay, the food was better as it was served hot and was very flavorful. The falafels were seasoned nicely and were crispy on the outside and smooth on the inside. I enjoyed my meal and will eat there again.

The food is really good and fresh. They are also not shy with the sauces, which I like. The only thing is that one of the servers seemed a little gruff last time I went. But the food is worth it.

Huge and filling portions. Tasty food for a quick lunch. I don't pretend to be an expert on Mediterranean food, but the options were different from the usual Mediterranean restaurants I've frequented, which isn't a bad thing, it's fun to try different flavors from a (seemingly) different country.

Got a double lamb bowl and most everything tasted good except for the sauces didn't care for those much. The hummus was decent and so was the yogurt, but everything else needs work. Plenty of seating, but parking can be a challenge. Service was great 👍🏼 thank you!

I dont understand the 4.6 out of 5 rating. That’s like a 9+ out of 10 and this place is certainly no 9. It’s a 7 at best. It’s ok but nothing special. In fact, places like CAVA are better in terms of quality of the food. My opinion, obviously yours varies.

I was in a lot of mediterranean restaurants and it was not the best one, but for 1-2 times it’s fine. The location is great for us because it’s near by our home. What I like more that if you like and eat healthy food the bowl is perfect option. A lot of vegetables 👍 Falafel is not good enough if you have to compare with smth, but for the first time it’s okay. The prices are good. We paid $40 for 2 people: protein bowl and falafel plate (served with rice , salad , pita (just little one , it was funny, because in all mediterranean restaurants give at least 5-6) and 2 non alcoholic drinks. I do not think that would come again if want to eat exactly mediterranean food. But to have a healthy snack may be yes … Inside of the restaurant is clean nice 😊

The food here was pretty good.It was the overall lack of staff and lack of toilet paper in the bathroom that resulted in three star rating.

I like the food. All the tables are dirty. Cashier is on he's fone instead of cleaning the tables. I had to do it myself. That happens when owners or a good manager is not around. Lazy employees equals failure.... OH LESS SALAD SMALLER CHICKEN.. SMH

Food is okay, nothing special about it, but you’re going to spend 20$ on a bowl that isn’t better than chipotle. That aside, they also force you to tip AFTER they give u the ‘total’. You can tell the type of restaurant it is when they try and pinch you out as much money as possible. NO fast food should ever ask for tip. The food is expensive they should pay their employees more instead of asking for tips.

Horrible Do Not recommend for group orders at all! My office did a order almost $500 and not only did they leave out an entire order upon delivery but they falsely advertised the chicken breast and when I went to exchange or get something else they completely denied. I asked for store manager and they said there is NO MANAGEMENT at this location. So the staff is pretty much making their own rules and bias discretion on who/which customers get quality customer service. I’m very disappointed with this place as they are reputable but this location is a flop. I legit left my $25 bowl there in disgust didn’t even want the money back.

I ordered spicy chicken platter from this place through Uber eats, it was doing a promotion of buy one get one platter, where each platter is ~$24 and for two it was ~$45 I ordered it and got this platter where the protein portion is very very less for its price.., they just dumped a lot of rice with little chicken and charging this much for rice. I don’t like my experience here.

Please look amazing food looks delicious but staff don’t know what are they doing? They cannot serve properly. I was inside the store for almost 45 minutes for two bowls requested lettuce on the side wanted to overcharge me $12 just for some lettuce.

Ordered a 2 for 1 dish. Sent only one. Ordered back. As it was too late I cancelled and THEY CHARGED ME. Watched my partner eating and I starving and being ripped off for food never received.

This has been my go-to for lunch since they opened on Las Olas, but today, I was sadly disappointed with my meal. I was served hard rice from the bottom of the pot.

Great food. I requested a chick salad and they want to charge me $5 per each scoop of chickpeas, there is also no parking available ever, the food is great but they don't used common sense when a special request from customers, and my special reuqest was a smal chick pea salada lol.

On the Rice app, BE CAREFUL WITH THE TIP for take out orders. Right before you place the order, it says zero for the tip, the second you click order, it adds a tip automatically. Then, you have the option to cancel the order but the app wont let you cancel (they know what they are doing). They keep a bunch of unauthorized tips since a lot of people don't fight it. They know the issue and continue doing this.
