Had an overall great experience here! The food was delicious and it came out really fast. The restaurant was very calm, just a couple other parties, and we were there around 5 pm. The food was slightly more expensive than other Chinese restaurants in the area, but it wasn’t ridiculous.

Ordered some American-Chinese staples, hot and sour soup, sesame chicken and pork lo mein. I can’t believe the reviews are so positive on here. They were really nice on the phone but they missed the mark on all of those items. Hot and sour was too thin, basically watered down. Lo mein had basically nothing in it. This is a standard cost cutting move, but for the price point they couldn’t put anything in there? Crazy. The sesame chicken was closest of the three. They got the crunch right, the sauce was just a little on the sour side. Overall the food was okay, people are being very generous on here going above a 2-3 star though.

I would like to start with the atmosphere of this restaurant. The lighting is near perfect, not to bright nor is it too dark.

The mai tai is legendary… and strong! Our go-to dish is the vegetable udon noodles with soft tofu, but if you want to he healthy, add some chili sauce & a bit of soy sauce to the steamed veggies with tofu.

We loved this place, but our recent order had super greasy tofu —how does one do that? — and Gen Tso chix (see pic) was all dough and fat and very little meat!

Rice valley is probably one of the finest Chinese food restaurants anywhere in NE.

This has been a family favorite since they opened. The food is so fresh and well prepared. The owner and staff are all great.

Was really expecting more since I had been a couple years ago and remembered it being amazing. Lo mein smelled funky and tasted like nothing. Twice cooked pork was barely spicy and also had no flavor. Dumplings were solid though. Quality relative to price is definitely pretty low, overall disappointing.

I went by myself and they kindly assisted me very pleasantly! I had the pork lo mein, 10/10!!!! Very large portions and good prices!!! Would visit again

Long time favorite place for takeout. Has some specialty dishes that are great. Only reason I don’t give five stars is the food is at a slightly lesser quality than it has been in the past (but keep in mind I’ve been going to this restaurant since it opened years ago)
