Love the bowls! So tasty and always ready fast. I recommend getting the bulgogi with the fried egg, sounds weird but it's delicious and you get the extra protein benefits. Don't forget to ask for sauces, they have a few to choose from.
I love Flying Rice Asian Kitchen to get my quick fix of delicious vegetarian bibimbap! My review is based off this one dish only, as I have never ordered anything else here, but if you can make a veggie bibimbap delicious and not make me miss meat, then I think this deserves full recognition. The tofu is nice and crisp (something I recognize a lot of places don't seem to achieve), which I appreciate. Of course, seeing what friends and family order, the meat options do look delicious, too. One day I'll steal a bite, and update this portion of the review, haha. The restaurant is small and quiet. The service is good. I usually order ahead of time and just grab my food as takeout. They seem to serve in takeout containers regardless of if you're dining in or taking out.
Believe all of the 5 star reviews! Flying Rice Asian Kitchen is a delicious local Asian outlet serving fantastic, flavorful dishes in a cozy setting. The food was ready relatively quickly and service was excellent - as was the great, fresh tasting bowls. I'm excited to return to try some of the other menu options.
The best Korean food I've had in a very long time. Everything was fresh! It had all the right textures & flavors especially The sauces they were delicious. Kane, I hope I'm spelling that correctly! Had great suggestions was very informative about the menu and recommended some sauces to take home. We had polite conversation while I waited for my food, which wasn't very long. It's very cozy inside a few tables inside as well as out, very clean smelled delicious even from outside. Definitely going back to try more of the menu! The owner is the main man behind the scenes and it shows! Thank you for a phenomenal meal after a very long day!
The two of us shared a pork belly rice bowl. It was great! $15 - not too bad. Portion size is generous for 1 person, but not quite enough for 2 people. Service was great! The girl at the register was very friendly and helpful.
Popped in here for the first time last week and was absolutely blown away by the food. Both bowls were hands down amazing, I've been thinking about eating it everyday! Highly recommend, don't forget to ask for sauce at checkout if you like a little extra and if you don't know what to get ask the cashier, she is friendly and knowledgeable. 10/10 on food, only thing that would make it better if they were open later in the evening for dinner and also on weekends but other then that they are fantastic!
Flying Rice is serving up a really great, clean, and yummy bowl for a pretty reasonable price compared to a lot of places in this area. I tried their KFC Bowl and it was really good. The employee at the register was super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed! There is not a lot of space to sit inside the restaurant but there are some seats outdoor too. I highly recommend this place especially if you are looking for a quick lunch or dinner that is still good and wholesome!
It's been over one year since my last review. Thought I do an update and post some new pictures. Food is still as amazing and delicious as my 1st visit. My go-to is the KFC over rice bowl and Kimchi Gogi fries with chicken. Staff is different now, but still offers the same friendly and great customer service. Funny, every time I am here, no one is eating inside. I do see the table outside being occupied. Maybe it's too dim inside and people can't see what they are eating. Don't know. It's cute and comfy inside though. It's kind of romantic IMHO. I wouldn't mind my date taking me here LOL. I'll hint to him when that time comes LOL. My daughters favorites are the KFC over rice and Bulgogi over rice. We've tried the Pork Belly over rice and the pork has an acquired taste for some reason per my daughters. I've recently ordered the Pan Fried Ramen noodles with chicken... it's okay... I was hoping the ramen noodles to be more flavorful. Chicken was fantastic though. I will continue to be supportive to Flying Rice Asian Kitchen. Still waiting for them to open on the weekends. If they don't ever, it's okay. I'll come here whenever I can on the weekdays as long as they remain in business. Happy Flying!
