    This is one of the hidden gems of awesome food in the Shoals area. It's even worth a drive from a neighboring city. The food is amazing, the prices are reasonable, and the service was over the roll. "Grandma" waited on us and I can't remember a better dining experience in a long time. Attentive, funny, personable, and experienced- She was terrific! Love this place!

    We ordered pickup on Friday and it was delicious as always! We ordered an enormous amount of food and it only took 30 minutes from the time I called to the time it was ready! This will continue to be my favorite Asian restaurant in Florence! Adding some pictures of the menu since it's been a year that any were added

    This place is a hidden gem! We lost our local Chinese restaurant in the town i live in and I have to say this one is worth the drive! The food portion is excellent, staff are friendly, and they have a big menu..so lots to choose from!

    The service, environment, food, and pricing were all more than ideal here. The food was brought out fast and the server was funny and attentive. The environmental is themed incredibly, they had led lights that worked incredibly well with the textured walls to give an incredible effect and the white walls went so well with the black ceiling providing for a very cozy and comfortable space. The tables are more well lit than most other dine-in restaurants and the restaurant was cleaner than I expected a strip mall Chinese/Japanese restaurant to be. The food came out so fast and the menu was very large and had anything I could want from here since this is a hibachi/japenese/Chinese restaurant so they have it all it seems. The food was very good and I left full, which isn't always the case when you go somewhere for the express purpose of eating sushi. Yumm Thai sushi and bar in downtown Florence has similar food but except over twice as expensive with no noticeable difference in quality, while rice box is high quality and gives you great value for your purchases. I spent 9 dollars total on food including tax, I bought two sushi rolls, which came with a great salad and a mid mido soup. Their sushi is so savory and it's textured very well, it's significantly better than Publix sushi in terms of texture and flavor profile. I had a really good time there and walked in and out very fast at lunch time due to their fast service, and the fact I didn't have to wait long for my food or bill.

    I give it a 4.8. The food and service were amazing, but the dining area was very hot and humid. I'd eat here a lot if i lived closer, but i would probably get it to go.

    Ordered the teriyaki chicken, it was good. I liked the atmosphere, my son loved the color changing lights on the wall.
