Rice Bowl in Arun

I normally have a favourite place that I order through but I figured I would try somewhere different for once…. Which was a bad mistake.I ordered a pretty boring meal consisting of egg fried rice, sweet & sour chicken balls and chips so I figured it couldn’t really go wrong….The rice was slightly off colour and had a rubbery consistency to it.The chicken balls were so hard to cut through and when I did manage to cut through the ‘chicken’ was horrible, it was a dirty dark colour that had a slight smell to it.The meal came to just over £13… the only thing I ate was a handful of chips in the end, the bin ate better than I did.I took a risk trying somewhere new and it didn’t work out, atleast I know never to order from here again.

Ordered through just eat.but the driver never showed up. Went down to get another meal and they were very kind and apologetic even tho it wasn't their fault. Great food 😀👌🏻

Absolutely disgusting! Soggy duck and everything tasted of salt! Ask for a refund and was refused food completely unedible Avoid this place!!!

Have been a regular customer here for well over 30 years. I have never had a poor meal, b for 1 is my go to but all of the menu is very good

Chicken balls hard and inedible. Chips reheated stodge. Really disappointing and I'm not fussy.

Ordered a meal for delivery for the first time , I used to live near the rice bowl and had never had a bad experience, I wanted to support this particular take away but found myself with a substandard meal , chicken balls were as hard as iron as if they’d been fried to death, it was all just warm , not a great experience, especially as I’d expected so much more , the Bin eat well tonight.I never ever write a bad review but I’m absolutely furious.

I cannot wait until you are able to reopen on the 12th May for our Chinese food fix! We have been getting takeaways from here for over 30(!) years and NO-ONE does a Kung Po Chilli Chicken as good as you do, here or in Hong Kong. The new dishes have been superb also. Hope you are all well and looking forward to placing an order very soon.

I lived a couple of doors down from this family run takeaway restaurant for many many years. This is still always my go to place for takeaway Chinese even after moving further away. everything is freshly prepared and cooked to order, the family are friendly and more than willing to adapt the menu to your requirements or tastes. By far the best Chinese for miles around.

Have been a customer of The Rice Bowl for as many years as I care to mention. I have never in all that time been disappointed, always more than satisfied. As such would never consider going anywhere else, thank you. Menu C is a real winner, especially when substituting prawn to mushroom.

Not brilliant. First meal here was good. Curried beef and king prawn (too hot for wife) and prawn toast. Prawn toast excellent. Portions good size. Expensive compared to Worthing. Second meal was D for 2 (special). Nothing special about it at all. The dishes looked and tasted all the same and lacked fresh vegetables, i.e. Red and green peppers to give the dishes colour and some texture. Ribs were ok but just okay. We will not use again.
