My Wife and I went here for dinner on a Wednesday evening and really liked this place. The food was very good and is authentic Vietnamese! Everything is so fresh and very tasty. I had the Sate' Pho and my Wife had the Beef Pho and both were so good. The restaurant is very clean, relaxing and the service was really good. I would highly recommend trying this place if you are looking for good Vietnamese food. The restaurant also has a romantic ambiance about it as well.

Stopped in for a quick lunch on way into Calgary. The restaurant was exceptionally clean; service was fast; and food was very well presented.

Ordered some salad rolls to begin with and they were as good as any I've had before.

The main mean for me was the vermicelli and BBQ pork, beef, chicken with spring rolls.

Overall it was very good and the total bill for all 3 of us with the salad rolls and drinks was $60 with tip.

Good value, excellent food, and service for an afternoon lunch.

Will stop again!

I was a lone diner at Rice For King. It is fairly new and very bright and clean. I had a #57which is a seafood stir fry on crispy noodles. Was very good, not the best I've had but still very good. Service was extremely prompt and courteous. Worth a visit.

We stopped by for lunch today to get it to go. I ordered the grilled shrimp,chicken & beef on vermachelli & a side of deep fried wontons. I should start with a positive. The spring roll on the dish was very good...after that, just slop!! The meat was a poor over cooked dried out resemblance of what may have been juicy nicely spiced toppings. Sadly it was all cooked far passed that. Slivers of shrimp instead of whole grilled, beef that was more like jerky & chicken that didn't look like anything but sad reheated leftovers. The vemachelli was ice cold and the sauce was tasteless other than the over abundance of salt and /or MSG. So much my lips & tounge were burning for long after I threw this mess away. The won tons were the size of a loonie with pea sized meat inside. These were served with packaged plum sauce rather than the homemade side of dipping sauce shown in the menu. All this for $20.00!!! Never again Rice for Garbage! I will throw my money out the window as I drive past this location on my way to another place.
