    Whenever I get the jonesing for rice and meat, Rice Junkies is my go-to place, especially since one of my twice a week classes is just upstairs. There are so many options: chicken, beef, spicy pork, curry, teriyaki, peanut sauce, with veggies, brown or white rice, yakisoba... And all these can go in a wrap, too, but I prefer the regular bento dish. My favorite is a toss-up between the spicy pork and the teriyaki beef. The owners are very nice, even though the female owner/manager seems aloof sometimes. They're all so friendly and the service is fast. They have a good assortment of sauces on the counter - I love me some hot chili sauce - to add onto your bento. Is it the best bento ever? No. But the prices are reasonable (between $6-8), the service is fast and friendly, and the dishes are nice and filling. I'm a rice junkies junky.

    We tried the chicken yakisoba and beef with white rice bowl today. All the ingredients are fresh and tasty but a little bit colder than expected. This could be much better if served hot. Anyway, it's still one of the best one could get with only 6 or 7 bucks.

    Great Korean/Japanese street food for the area. It is not fine dining here, but just simple food.

    Never fails! I would recommend the spicy Mexican in a chipotle wrap!

    Rice Junkies does the trick when you are running late to an evening class at PSU and need something relatively easy to shove down throat. Pick a bowl or a wrap, a protein, rice or yakisoba noodles, fixin's, sauces, done. They will make any kind of combo you can think of, and in my experience are always friendly. I can't remember exact prices but I think it's around $6 for a full bowl or wrap. Just bean/cheese burrito may be less. They will also ask for your order three times because they're doing too many bong rips in the walk in. But hey, that's so college campus-y of them, right? It's endearing. I worked next door at Seattle's Best years ago and was the recipient back then of many a free stoner burrito mistake, so no complaints from me! The other night was the first time I had been back in years- what a hoot, thought I was in college again. Oh, wait... I am. Anyway- the same dude still works there and he rapidly put together my teriyaki bowl, doused it in sesame seeds and sent me off to class. Wooooo! COLLEGE!

    Good food, always tastes fresh and the veggies are good. Plenty of food for the price. Super fast and friendly service! Definitely my quick lunch of choice when I'm down at PSU.

    My my my...so many choices to choose from! Well, at least for me it was. I wound up getting the chicken curry rice bowl. Healthy and yummy! They have outdoor seating but you can only enjoy it if it's sunny. My classmate and I came here to study after classes so it was nice to just sit there and talk. The prices are fair and great for the "on the run" PSU student, like Anna mentioned in her review. =)

    Really delicious! Good amount of sauce of veggies and meat, and lots of choices to pick from. The curry sauce was delicious, chicken cooked to perfection, and the veggies were still nice and crisp. Will definitely go back and try more options.

    With limited time for lunch and a hankering for some tofu n rice deliciousness I stopped by Rice Junkie. The menu seemed large enough and offered up many sauce options, I opted for the curry with tofu. Let's just say this place has a low overhead on costs and it reflects in the food. For $6 I got some flavorless, uncooked chunks of tofu, a few good scoops of rice cooker cheap as hell rice and a ladle of curry sauce. The least they could do is throw in some veggies for that price (veggies and tofu costs extra) and actually cook the tofu. Bland and overpriced.

    What's not to love about Rice Junkies? It's cheap, yummy, and super fast Asian food right in the middle of PSU's campus. It may not be a must-try foodie destination, these guys are very good at what they do. The majority of the Rice Junkies menu is either Bento or Wraps, and they're all fully customizable. Choose from rice (white or brown) or noodles, an array of sauces, and a variety of protein options. Options range in influence from Korean to Japanese to "I don't know what this is, but it's definitely Asian." Most everything is $9 or less. I particularly enjoy the speed with which these guys get food out. Even during the prime lunch rush when nearby restaurants and food trucks have 20 minute waits, I'm always in and out of Rice Junkies in less than 5 minutes. Good food. Good price point. Great customer service. Excellent location. I'm a fan.

    On my way to the lecture about Egyptian history (which was excellent by the way), I realized it was 6:30 p.m. and I was not going to make it through the lecture without something for dinner. There was really not much of anywhere to get a decent quick meal, save for McDonald's and Ben and Jerry's (oh no for sure on Mickey D's and maybe later on Ben and Jerry's), and then I saw the sign for Rice Junkies. It dawned on me this was perfect, healthy, quick, AND tasty. I decided on the chicken teriyaki bowl with veggies and brown rice. I turned my back for what seemed like one second and voila there was my bowl of goodness. The veggies were very fresh and just lightly steamed, just the way I like them, the chicken thigh pieces were grilled perfectly, and the rice was cooked perfectly as well. They have a small bar full of extra sauces in those nice plastic squirt bottles and you can have as much as you want. The gentleman at the counter was very nice and helpful, and when I dropped off my dishes to the lady, I started to pull the napkins and everything out to put in garbage, and she stopped me and said "oh let me do that." This was a very comforting and kind thing to hear at the end of a long day at work. Rice Junkies is almost literally a hole in the wall. There is little seating, just a few feet of shelving attached to the wall and a couple of chairs or you can stand. It's nice and clean. They have many other choices besides Teriyaki Chicken, but wow what I saw everybody else eating looked awfully good. If you're on the PSU campus and want a tasty, healthy meal, skip Pizzicato's and Smith Memorial and give this homey little place a try. It's worth your time.

    I have always been an avid browser of Yelp, but today I was "inspired" by Rice Junkies to create an account. Conveniently located next to the PSU Rec Center, Rice Junkies is a quick and easy stop for most students to grab a bite between classes. The service is quick and the staff is nice. That's not the problem. The problem is the food. Served hot and smelling good, you'd think that the food would be delicious. It was not. I've had one of their rice and beef bentos before, and that wasn't the greatest, but it was palatable. The steamed vegetables were tough and the meat was lacking, and for the price, I had decided not to return again. Today I was running to an appointment, and out of desperation, I decided to give Rice Junkies another chance. I went for the yakisoba, because it's nearly impossible to get yakisoba entirely wrong. Figured it was a safe bet. I have never had such terrible chicken yakisoba in my entire life. Now, I did grow up in Japan and Hawaii, so maybe I'm a little bit biased when it comes to Asian food, but come on. $6 for a tiny 3"x8" plate of noodles, topped with a skewer of 3 pieces of chicken. The chicken was well-sized, but dry and tasteless. The noodles were also extremely dry and/or chewy. There was nothing else in the dish to help make it "yakisoba," just noodles and chicken skewer. The drizzle of thick, salty, generic teriyaki sauce over the top helped a little bit, but not nearly enough to call either the chicken or the noodles "good." I had to force myself to swallow it down so that it wasn't an entire waste of money. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I can't believe the workers inside were Asian. You'd think they'd never tasted their own food before. Rice Junkies may be passable to those who have never experienced good Asian food before, but I would not recommend it to anyone who has a sense of taste.

    I am not too fond of burritos, but this wraps are great. Definitely grab-and-go food place that tastes good. Rice Junkies worked well when you are running late to an evening class at PSU, I know I done it several times. Any wrap with spicy peanut is good.

    Definitely solid grab-and-go food for when you want something tasty and quick. They do a mean spicy peanut. Great location for those of us with late night classes or when you want something healthy after the gym.

    It's good bento food. Not the best in the world, but definitely good. The owners were super nice and the service was fast. The vegetables were freshly steamed, and the food tasted fresh. Well priced as well. Good food for on the go.

    This place was all-right! I used to go here before Laughing Planet (a block away) opened up, and found the prices to be a tad high for what I would get (rice, veggies, tofu). However, the staff were always friendly, and the take-out food was always piping hot. It would be nice if they were open for longer hours though.
