my rating for this place is actually 4.5 but unfortunately zomato does whole number ratings now :/ the rice den was a pleasant surprise! at the end of the day it is asian food, but the flavours and taste are so refined and on point! if you are looking for a place which doesn't disappoint this is it! it is on the north shore and a bit overpriced for the serving size, but the quality, taste and customer service is great which makes up for it making it an enjoyable place to dine, especially for a special occasion! it is a bit fancy but not fine dining and not totally casual, in between.

i was pleasantly surprised by my visit to rice den. seeking a nice place for a work lunch, we had walked past this place a few times. but the small and seemingly overpriced menu deterred my patronage on more than one occasion.
when we finally went last week, i was met with courteous, attentive staff.
the food: though a small menu everything was delicious and of a high quality. we ordered soft shell crab w vermicelli, smoked chicken n glass noodle salad, chicken croquettes, cheong fun. my favourite was the soft shell crab.
overall: pricing is steep but we used an entertainment card which made it very worth while for the quality of the food. i would consider returning and would order any of the above dishes again.

tucked away in st leonards, not far from the train station us this amazing restaurant. we had a group of six and had the best table in the house. the staff were incredibly
friendly and helpful with selecting the wine from the extensive menu.

we ordered lots of dishes and each and every dish was amazing, especially the lobster.
by the end of a very long lunch we were all certain to visit again.

st leonards may not be the culinary capital of sydney but this restaurant is definitely worth the detour off the pacific highway.

fantastic place for authentic chinese cuisine.

very simple and delicious recipe. ordered satay chicken which was served quickly had awesome combination of peanuts and chinese sauces.

sausage fried rice with shitake mushroom was perfect suit for satay chicken.

lovely dinner with grand chef joy and comforting service by mable.

creative, modern chinese food is often either disappointing in flavour or grossly overpriced. rice den however is moderately priced and a lot of their dishes are just simple twists on classics. food here is quality, i have been here several times and will definitely be back for more. great ambience for date nights, even though the food is better suited for sharing. service is also quite good

we ordered some simple dishes and they were tasty. the staff were friendly & good looking too ; ) i liked the fitting of the restaurant. just a fyi the pipi needs to be ordered 48 hours in advance (i think)

i’ve been here on multiple occasions. the food is very consistent fusion cantonese, above average although not spectacular.

the rice den catered well for our table of 10 with multiple dietary requirements. we chose the 46pp banquet and there was enough food. the food was served at a good pace.

the wine list here is excellent without a huge mark up. cocktails were good.

service was very good until it got a bit busy and there weren’t enough waitstaff.

would highly recommend if you work or live in the neighbourhood.

great canton food, beef tataki was my dish of the day! the beef is perfectly cooked, it melts in your mouth.

chicken croquet paired with chili mayo. beautiful textured chicken pieces.

rice noodle roll can't get anymore authentic. deliciously brilliant

five star service!

as someone who have lived in hong kong for more than half of my life, the rice den is a trendy restaurant in sydney that actually does traditional chinese food (+ a bit of a twist) decently.

we got the $46pp banquet menu for the night. the two dishes that really stood out are the bbq pork neck and the calamari rings. the biggest critic i have was that the chicken and the fish were slightly overcooked and the portion size should have been slightly larger.

ordered:
1. traditional hand made cheong fun - i like their sauce and it goes well with the rice flat noodle
2. bbq pork neck - this is so good, not a lot of fat which is what i preferred. the colour is not the artificial red you see at a lot of hong kong bbq restaurants
3. calamari - soggy, i did not like this dish
4. barramundi - i love the sauce, kept adding the sauce to my rice and eating it non stop
5. garlic prawn on the special menu - i like the garlic sauce, this place really knows how to make their sauces yummy
6. steamed bok choy - steamed not stir fried which is healthy and tasty
7. vanilla coconut cream sago - too sweet that i couldn’t finish it, was hoping it was a refreshing dessert but it wasn’t

will i go back: yes
