They added lettuce to some the diskes to make it seem like you were getting more. For example, the brussel sprout salad use to come with more Brussel sprouts but now they have added lettuce on the bottom.

Best Thai Restuarant in the area. I've been going to Rice for many years and fall back in love with it each visit. I would highly suggest everyone try it, great food and staff.

Great little Thai restaurant! We really wanted to dissect a Panang curry because we kept hitting a wall trying to make it ourselves, so we wanted to eat somewhere that had a decent one, this place had good reviews so we thought we'd try it out! Curry was delicious. We also had the drunken noodles, which was appropriately spicy (moreso than the curry), it was quite yummy as well! Overall a very good choice, we would return!

Seems that this restaurant went downhill... service and food was very average, the toilets were just disgusting, and the restaurant was almost empty on Friday night. We almost had to beg them for water - they did not pay much attention to glasses being empty... they gave us the final bill without even asking if we wanted tea/coffee or deserts... we were surprised and then it appeared all deserts were sold out and they had none on the menu... it would have been nice to explain that upfront instead of just handing out the bill and leave the customer wondering... would not recommend this place. There are much better Thai restaurants nearby.
