"...the food is outstanding — fresh, flavorful, filling..."
"...there is so much variety that the fun is trying different combinations. You won't find another Korean restaurant in Florida serving as many banchan, Lisa says, certainly not in the Tampa Bay area.."
"Marinated short ribs, cooked at the table over hardwood charcoal, are surrounded by a dizzying array of side dishes — like condiments, only better — at Rice Restaurant."

Dining Review :: Rice Korean Restaurant
"But, in all, it was a deeply satisfying and interesting experience, enhanced by a courteous and attentive wait staff. Our only wish was that more people were there to share it with us."

Rice Korean Restaurant
There are several fine Korean restaurants in Tampa, but Rice offers a little extra on the formula. There's the usual astounding array of powerful pickles and condiments -- including excellent fresh kimchi -- served with dishes like fiery tripe stew. Rice is also the only spot in town for tableside BBQ. 7525 W. Hillsborough Ave., Tampa, 813-889-7766, RiceKoreanRest.com.
