Mixed Rice — Restaurant in Burlington

My son and I have been to Mixed Rice several times in the past few years. My late wife was from a Thai family going way back to when Thailand was Siam and we love many Asian dishes. We have enjoyed going to this place for several years. Its food could have been a bit better for the price, with servings being a bit larger. However, we have not found anything absolutely wrong with eating here. The service has always been friendly and efficient. My son and I went there yesterday for the first time since the Covid shtdown. We were really looking forward to it. However, despite what their website claims, they are take-out only. Worse, they have a table shoved across the front door and expect folks to stand on the sidewalk to place an order and then stand in the heat of summer to wait for their food. This was a complete turnoff. I do not know the reason they have done this. If it's because of Covid still frightening them, someone should remind them that the Burlington no longer demands that businesses have to prevent folks from entering a restaurant. I would think that Mixed Rice should at least allow folks to come inside (masked if they prefer that) to order and to wait...

My wife and I have eaten here several times (Oct. - Nov. 2015), and we like the food very much. Our samplings so far have included the Beef Glass Noodles, Spicy Chicken, Beef Bulgogi, Rice Rolls (Kimbap), and the Rice Cakes in spicy sauce. All were excellent, fill you up, and the prices are very reasonable. There are choices for those who like spicy food and for those who prefer not spicy. But don't be afraid of the spicy ones -- give them a try! The owner-cook is a very friendly lady, originally from S. Korea (and has lived in the States for many years). Well worth stopping in (or call for take-out) if you have a taste for good Korean food. We are VERY happy to have this restaurant in town, and we will will certainly be going back! (BTW, we are also BIG eaters of all types of Asian cuisine, and have been to S. Korea, as well as many other East Asian countries -- so we know "good stuff" when...

I like the foods a lot. The mixed rice, bibimbap is more americanized compared to the traditional mixed rice, but I guess it's because of the area here, no many Koreans. but other foods like 'soft tofu soup' and 'spicy rice cakes' are very traditional. I like them! I don't expect Kimchi as complimentary, because it's not a fine restaurant, and I am pretty sure they charge up to $15-$17 for main entree there which includes all the side dishes. I believe this place is take-out restaurant, cheaper, thus, no tips reqired. I like this way better because I dont wanna pay more for something I don't want to eat. I don't eat Kimchi a lot. I used to put some tips though in the tip jar to appreciate small spaces that they provide but after covid I cant enjoy the dine in. nice owners too. I always love...
