Rice Bowl - Houston

Rice Bowl Bellaire never disappoints! Food always tasty and delicious! I know several people that eat here, including myself, pretty frequently!

The best Indonesian food in Houston, hands down!! And I’m from Indonesia. The mpek-mpek is so delicious with the sauce, and the sate is not dry, although the peanut sauce can use a little more seasoning. The rendang is not like rendang Padang (in case you’re familiar), but very tender, saucy and pretty much melts in your mouth. Bakso with bakmi is pretty awesome too, you want to ask for their special homemade chili or it won’t be the same as what I tasted tonight. I come here probably once a month to get my Indo fix, only because it’s so far from where we live. If I lived closer I would probably come once a week. You won’t go wrong… oh btw, it’s an Asian place, service is never the first priority.

I have been going to this location for years and each time, it is consistently good! I only order the Indonesian dishes rendang sapi, cah buncis, ayam goreng kuning, kuayteow goreng and on my last trip there, tried the ayam panggang bumbu cabe. Love every dish!

This placed USED to have great Indonesian food. This time, the shrimp was flavorless and tasted like the fridge. The fried chicken tasted like it had been refried before. Sadly, we won?t come back. The prices were way to high for the poor quality food.

Overpriced, overworked, understaffed, yet they did well despite how busy it was with only a cooks and two customer service people. My food was served within 10 minutes from ordering. They didn't have water. I had to buy water for 75 cents and buy rice for 85 cents. My Indian dish there was $17. It tasted pretty good, but the egg soup didn't have any seasoning. She had me get my own bottle of water because they were very understaffed. They were still nice and respectful. They as in the staff that works there. I don't think the food was worth near $30. I think Indian dishes are just more expensive and I'm glad they have both Indian dishes and Asian dishes at one place. I would recommend this place for a quick, satisfactory meal. I also like that the place is spacious.
