The staff is very friendly and the place is kept clean, though the atmosphere feels more like a takeout spot than a cozy sit-down restaurant. Portions are generous, but the prices are a bit on the higher side. For the Indonesian food, the menu isn’t actually displayed, so you have to ask for it. The Nasi Goreng was pretty good after adding a bit of salt to enhance the flavors—but the pangsit goreng (fried wontons) were just 'okay,' and the Empal Sapi was a bit drier than I expected. Also, they serve Chinese-style chili oil/flakes rather than a traditional sambal. It’s a decent spot for a quick, filling meal, or a takeout!

I have been coming to Rice Bowl for over 10 years. It has never disappointed me in any way. The owner is always friendly and welcoming. She remembers me once i walk in after being absent for a long time. I have several dishes that I order. Pepper steak and hunan beef are my go to orders. The lunch comes with fried rice and an eggroll. For less than $10 for a lunch portion, it can not be beat. Sure you can go to "McDowells". But a freshly cooked meal for less than a fast food meal, the choice is obvious. Not only are the ingredients fresh, they actually use fermented black beans. No other "asian" restaurant uses those. It gives the dish such a better flavor, creating a more authentic dish. If i could change anything it would be the included fried rice, maybe a few vegetables or a bit more flavor would be best. When I am in the area, I make it a point to stop here. So worth it.

Had Mee Goreng with ayam and udang Great taste and house made fresh chili was pedas and suddenly. Very tasty Indonesia food.
