Raw + Rice

Our first ever visit to Raw + Rice today and what a great decision it turned out to be! To keep things simple as they were verging on closing time, my wife and I ordered straight from the suggestion bowls - a chicken bowl (half mixed greens, half brown rice base) for me and a soy tofu bowl (half quinoa, half mixed greens base) for her, accompanied by a bottle of kombucha each. There was a slight delay with service as there was only a single staff member working. She was fantastic though, super-friendly and doing her best to accommodate a sizeable order. Soon after, a second staff member returned to work and offered assistance. From there, it was smooth sailing and we were quickly served. He too was chatty and friendly, making small talk as he adeptly and confidently prepared our order. As for the bowls themselves, they were awesome! We have eaten bowls across many parts of SEQ and these were close to, if not the best we've had. Fresh, loaded with flavour, healthy and just through-and-through delicious. Love the wasabi mayo! Although some reviewers are critical of price, I was happy to pay the $18 per bowl for a nourishing, filling and tasty lunch. Bear in mind that ingredients, labour, storefront overheads, etc., quickly take a bite out of profits. Fresh, tailored meals will generally cost you more than mass-produced rubbish. End of the day, you get what you pay for. Thank you Raw + Rice.....keep up the great work and see you next time.

Seriously delicious and healthy, one of the best poke bowls I’ve had outside of Hawaii. Went for the suggested salmon bowl regular size for $15.90 which isn’t cheap but also isn’t expensive for a beachside location. Great portion size will leave you content and satisfied. So glad I found it.
