I’v only been here a few times and tried dumplings and cocktails! I like the internal decoration, it’s dark and colorful! The only thing could improve, not smoking at front!
Staff were welcoming and very helpful. Food took awhile to come out and the portions are small. Atmosphere is nice, overall wouldn’t rush to return
This place was on my bucket list of things to eat for so long and it did not disappoint one bit. The atmosphere is amazing and is probably one of the best Asian Fusion restaurants I've been to. Definitely try the pork belly bites they were absolutely scrumptious. The only issue we had was the duck salad which was more chewy than we would have liked but still yum.
Absolutely love this place! I came here awhile back and ordered the queenie shot (tequila with a green shooter) and some fried chicken KFC to start off and it was amazeballs!! Honestly so good and such a clever way to start the night. I remember the food being so delicious and they also make incredible cocktails!
Recommend booking this place get full very quickly, but the food speaks for itself! It’s such great food and great for sharing with the company you are with!!
The drinks menu is also great
This place has an amazing atmosphere with great food for sharing and drinks! Best way to catch-up after a long week and just relax over great food and cocktails! Ahhhhmazing!!!
Really yummy food! 3rd time going here and every single time I go, every dish is great (consistently tastes the same each time) and the food comes out at a good pace. The waiters and waitresses are nice too ☺️ the restaurant is super cute inside. Great for a girls night out or a fun date! Also if you’re VEGETARIAN this place has a lot of options which is amazing ⭐️
Rice Queen serves up some of the best Asian cuisine in Fitzroy in a quirky and fun venue that regularly drags the hungry mobs in. With a kitsch decor in quite a large area, the restaurant is a fun and happy place to dine. It can get quite busy, and sometimes a little loud, but that just adds to the electic atmosphere. The wait staff and bartenders are welcoming and more than happy to help with the menu and cocktail list.
The menu is fabulous, with lots of fresh and vibrant Asian flavours to tantalise the tastebuds. We tried some dumplings, the fried chicken and fried tofu. Each of these dishes was amazing in their own ways. The dumplings were soft and tender, and the fried chicken was delicious, dripping in a sweet and spicy sauce. The fried tofu was sensational, with it's crispy crust and oozy centre, and it's accompanying sauce was so tasty.
With so many other restaurants in this busy part of town, Rice Queen still holds her own because of the fabulous and delicious food, fabulous cocktails, great service and cool vibe. She really does reign supreme in this area.
The bar was lovely to us, they made us surprise vegan mocktails which were exquisite! Once was grapefruit based, the other was chocolate based and my favourite was pineapple based with a hint of chilli. The dumplings were steamed, soft and delicate whilst the Korean fried cauliflower was crispy and flavoursome.
Really awesome venue. We had the poached prawn, pork belly, Korean fried chicken and the squid. All dishes were fresh and really good sizes. Drink service was slow we received our small meals before our drinks despite ordering our drinks as were seated which was frustrating. Other than that a really great night- would recommend :)
Atmosphere was lovely and staff were super friendly and attentive. Loved the food, it was delicious, packed with heaps of flavour and the best part, was that once you order, didn’t take long for food to come out. Only thing, two larger plates and one smaller plate, with veggies and roti wasn’t enough for two people, large was defs not large enough. Heaps of paid street parking.
If you’re looking for good food and good alcohol, make sure you check out Rice Queen! We were there during happy hour and got the oysters for only $2 per oyster! The cocktails were amazing and so were the food! We got the XO fried rice which was so fragrant and full of flavour without too overwhelming. We also the tuna tartare that was paired with egg salad and thin prawn crackers, it was amazing! And the staffs and bartender were super friendly! Can’t wait to come back again!
Went here for drinks & then came back for dinner. Such a warm & welcoming environment! Austin (venue manager) is so skilled at what he does & all the workers are super friendly. Food was amazing!! Generous portions & full of flavour. Loads of Vego & Vegan options plus Gluten Free options as well. Excellent value for money. Music & lighting is also perfect. Highly recommend & will definitely be back soon. Thank you very much.
Such pretty decor, great service, quick food and also so so yummy 🥰 recommend the KFC cauliflower, the lemon mocktail, and lychee cider 😋
Austin and his team are next level hospitality. Such lovely food and outstanding service just makes your heart melt. This is a great venue. Food is so full of flavour. Caters for vegetarians and gf. Will return in next day or so because it is so good
