Clients Reviews

The owner took my order and the food was ready in the amount of time I was quoted. He is a very nice guy and I believe this is a family business. All of our food was phenomenal. The best crab rangoons I’ve ever had. I had chicken fried rice, which was a whole cutlet on top rather than questionable small chunks mixed in. The potstickers were great as well, and weren’t a Sysco special. My favorite Asian restaurant in the area

Matt R.

It's such a sweet little family owned restaurant. Everyone was especially attentive and the food came out hot, fresh and delicious. I ordered the Shrimp Masaman curry and we had the Thai Dumplings and Fried Banana and Ice Cream. Highly recommend, can't wait to go back and try more dishes. We did have to wait some but it's only because of how busy they were! Have some patience when you go because the service and food are worth the wait. ☺️

Kristen M.

Absolutely delicious Thai food. I kept telling myself what amazing food after each bite. We had Massamon curry, Pad Thai, fried rice, and my all time favorite Thai dish, papaya salad. If you've never tried papaya salad try it here, it's top notch!

Oh my goodness, so good! These reviews did not lie! My husband and I were like are these reviews true! They are, this place food was phenomenal! We had the green and yellow curry! Both yummy! And the sweet rice dessert with mango and coconut cream, delish! Definitely worth visiting!

Jasmine M.

Fantastic! After just a few visits, Sweet Rice is becoming one of our favorite regular dinner spots. Appetizers and Entrees are both delicious. If you order "Hot" it will be Spicy. Great Service. Give it a try. Highly Recommended

Larry C.

Awesome! Nice place with a great selection of Thai dishes. I like that you can order mild, medium, hot, or Thai hot so everyone can enjoy. The food comes out hot and delicious. The green curry is definitely one of my favorites and add the salmon and it is out of this world. Everyone is very friendly and makes you feel welcomed like they have invited you into their home.

Eric G.

This place is one for the books! Their food is so flavorful and authentic, you can taste the love that is poured into each dish. We have been several times since they opened and they never disappoint. They might just be THE best in the Greater Baton Rouge area, in my opinion. My favorites there are the softshell crab with green curry dish, the Thai Dumplings, spring rolls, tom kha shrimp soup & their Thai tea. Mmmmmmm
