We were very pleasantly surprised by Rice Passions. We were staying at the nearby Sheraton 4 Points for our flight out of Logan the next day. Rice Passions is less than a half mile from the Sheraton, but in a somewhat seedy small strip mall next to a smoke shop, kind of in front of the Market Basket.
Anyway, the food was really quite good. We had the Chicken Larb and the Drunken Noodles. Both were very good. The Chicken Larb was a larger portion then from other places and had lots of chicken - it could have perhaps used a touch more fish sauce and lime. But it was good enough that we got another order to go to eat on the plane the next day.
The Drunken Noodles with beef was also very good with tasty, tender beef and a nice array of fresh, crispy vegetables. The taste was perfect.
And for dessert my partner just had to try the blue sticky rice with ice cream. It was really blue and though the visual of the sticky blue rice was slightly off putting, the rice and ice cream were quite good.
Service was okay - perhaps they could have been more attentive.
The restaurant is fairly large and minimally decorated. We felt bad that they didn't have many customers at Thursday dinner time. They deserve a lot more business, but they did seem to have a healthy amount of take...
Read moreOrdered from here for the first time tonight. We got the Dinner red curry with crispy chicken, drunker noodles with chicken, Bangkok noodle soup, and mango with sticky rice. Honestly - we were mortified. I rarely ever leave reviews when I’m not happy with my order because I like to give restaurants the benefit of doubt and/or and excuse but this was beyond. Absolutely not edible.
-The dinner red curry with crispy chicken - the chicken was dry, seems to have been fried more than once, over cooked and had a very pungent chickeny flavor. The color of the chicken was gray and literally looked like rubber. The curry sauce however with the rice was not bad.
-The drunken noodles - OMG!!!! It was so chickeny and gamey I literally couldn’t eat one bite. It was also cold!
The Bangkok noodle soup was alright. Nothing special but edible.
We did enjoy the Crab Rangoon and curry puff appetizer.
I really wanted to enjoy this but I will never order from here again again. I understand that restaurants are struggling and understaffed but as a customer the quality we got today really upsets me because we work hard for our money too. To have spend $70 on takeout and still be hungry is...
