If you blink you might miss it. Tucked next to a few other random buildings on the street and overshadowed by the Boston Market to its right, this great little place has some pretty sensational offerings. The summer rolls are fantastic, the best I've had in a long time. As you walk in you are greeted by a kind waitress,... More

Looking for a restaurant serving food other than heavy German and American cuisine (common in the area), we stumbled upon Rice and Noodles Restaurant. The cuisine was not an American take on Vietnamese, it was the real deal. All dishes were delicious, especially the spring roll appetizers, both the fried and fresh. The deserts were also divine, including the home... More

The food here is consistently excellent. The service is always great. The young people who wait tables are always cheerful and friendly. The seating area is small so sometimes there is a line for a tables, but it is worth the wait.

Great food - very vegetarian friendly. We visited on a Friday evening around 5:30 and it was about a 45 minute wait. There was a steady flow of people - a testament to the great food and great service. This is a small, cozy establishment. We welcome the opportunity to visit again.

We have (according to the date on my last review) been coming here for more than 4 years now. Does not seem possible - but that is what the date-stamp shows. In that time, it has been the rare occasion that we have let more than a month lapse before we go back. I don't think I have ever gone... More

If you like Vietnamese food, then you will love this place! The menu has many delicious options. Everything that I have tried, was so good and nicely spiced. My favorite dishes are the soups. My husband and daughter are gluten intolerant and R&N provides numerous gluten-free options for them. The place is small but charming. The staff is extremely friendly... More

I live in Lancaster county, and have eaten at Rice and Noodles a dozen times. Seating is cozy, the staff friendly and accomodating. The food is great and experiance is wonderful. R&N is becoming a regular stop for us.

Do not miss their soup for 2 - sheer bliss!!! The fish with vegetables and fresh spices, rice and glazed salmon is our Go To meal; must concentrate not to order each visit! Small space so go early and BYOB.
