The vibes of this place are just amazing. The decoration takes you to some place in Asia and the flavours of the food as well. What I realised in the last year is that no one really cares about the service, they just bring the food and clean the tables and that’s all about. It became so busy that no one really cares about the good service experience. Will be great to have some service apart from nice food and restaurant. Because sometimes it just feels like a fast food restaurant

We arrived around 5.30 and this place was cracking, by the time we left an hour later there would have been minimum 50 people waiting outside. Very very popular. Food was fresh and delicious and considering the amount of orders being put through we had our meal in great time, very impressed. If you want a quiet dinner perhaps give it a miss because there's so much going on in a good way, but may not be for everyone looking for a quiet evening. We weren't aware until we lined up to order that there was a specials board right near the counter so we changed our order, would have been nice if it could be seen from the dining tables or was mentioned upon seating, just a suggestion. Great meal and glad we went.

Great location, located at the mooloolaba wharf , just near the SEALIFE. They have indoor as well as outdoor seating . Outdoor seating can get really busy and need to wait longer. U can watch the river while enjoying ur food if u choose outdoor seating. Its worth the hype, really get busy at dinner time, try to come before 6pm if u dont want to wait on the line. The food was okay, the atmosphere was great, the service was excellent, the price was affordable. We tried the green curry and the fried chicken, the curry came with rice and enough portion to share. The curry taste okay (a bit salty for me) and nice creamy. The fried chicken was juicy inside and crunchy outside. Will try the ramen on the next visit. Definitely worth a try! 👍

Beef curry was 100/10 and the other dishes were good but not amazing. Prawn toast lacked flavour and so did the chicken bao. Cocktails were great.

Mainly sharing plates. You can’t book a table so you could end up queuing to get in as it’s very popular. Food is super tasty and fresh. Friendly service. Only issue for us was that the plates didn’t come out at the same time and were staggered. We sat in the garden bar area which was great.

Asian street vibes with a restaurant downstairs and a more intimate cocktail bar upstairs. The decore is electic & engaging just like the Asian fusion flavours they serve. The food is beautifully presented. A variety of options from duck pancakes to crispy fried eggplant chips, all on plates to share and graze from. Selection of delicious cocktails. Truely an experience as opposed to a meal. Fast delivery, service is good. Best of all seperate Vegetarian, Vegan & Gluten Free Menus. ✅🧑🏼‍🦼Accessible but some seating is crowded. 😎🎧🌶Neurospicy it's loud and pumping with music and may be difficult to navigate but the seating areas are intimate and gently lit upstairs.

Very busy and bustling place. The food and service was great. The chicken sando was really good and I would order it again. The kingfish sashimi had a really nice blend of flavours which tasted very good.

The best meal I've had on my road trip up the East Coast. The Sri Lankan fish curry could be the best curry I've ever eaten. The espresso martini was superb! Respectfully, if you come to Mooloolaba and don't come to Rice Boi you are foolish. 10/10 experience.

Riceboi is a buzzing, casual eatery that brings the street food vibes of Asia right to the heart of Mooloolaba. With its funky decor and laid-back atmosphere, it's the perfect spot to kick back with friends. The menu offers a mouthwatering selection of Asian-inspired dishes, from flavorful bao buns to rich, aromatic curries. The seafood, particularly the salt and pepper calamari, was a standout. The cocktails are equally refreshing and pair well with the spicy dishes. Service was quick and efficient, even during the busy rush. If you're after bold flavors and a cool, lively setting, Riceboi is the place to go.

A great Asian inspired restaurant. It's always busy, though, so be prepared to wait. The Green Chicken Curry for a main is delicious, as for an appetiser I'd recommend the spring rolls too. It's hard to pick a favourite from the menu as everything I've tried is amazing, and I've given almost everything on the menu a try. Staff are always on their game and a lot of effort has gone into making the atmosphere enjoyable.

Awesome tasty food on a buzzy environment. Four of us shared a feast for $78 and had plenty of food with delicious flavours. My fav were the pork & ginger dumplings and the chicken bao bun. We also had yummy eggplant chips - long pieces of deep fried eggplant, like a tempura - with hoisin sauce. The spring rolls were so tasty with coconut creamed filled flavour. Excellent experience and great venue in the newly developed Mooloolaba wharf.

Braised Coconut beef and My Ramen were our dishes . Spot on . Presentation , flavour and quick service . 5/5 . Too bad I don't live near here otherwise I would love to try more items ...

Great original fare. No reservations taken...queues guaranteed. Some outdoor seating. Prices reasonable.

One of the best 5 years ago. Not as good since they have opened multiple restraints, servings not as consistent. Still better than most options around

Very popular, deservedly, with a long line every time we passed by. We opted for takeout (ok, takeaway), which we ate right next to the takeout counter on public benches. Had the duck bao, salt and pepper wings, lotus chips, pork and ginger dumplings. Everything we had was good. Super crispy skin on the duck. Enough chips to last well into the next day. Fun food.

OMG, 100% one of the best places I've been to...I wish I could eat this everyday. Probably my favorite was the green curry, spicy and sweet and lingered just perfectly on your palette with every bite. I can't recommend this place enough.

Very popular and has an excellent vibe great value and great staff. The food is authentic and fresh and highly flavoursome. This place is an hidden gem. I highly recommend it. My criticism of this venue is the order and pay process one must queue order pay grab a number and find a seat. This is ok but if after what you order is not enough one needs to queue order and wait for the additional order to be delivered which is inconvenient for the customer and bad for the business in lost sales.

Rice Boi is amazing food! The line up is long but moves quick. You can't book but if you time it right it doesn't take long to get in. The spring rolls , fried chicken and bad buns are amazing if you're after a quick share bite to eat. Best restaurant on the Warf by far... prices are up there but the food is worth it and location is brilliant. Highly recommend. Takeaway js also just as good !!

Wow. Just cruising the wharf, saw this restaurant. I was jonesing for a curried lentil pie but to no avail. Had a look in this new restaurant I'd not seen before, they had a vegan/vegetarian menu. Awesome. Let's do it. Was. Not. Disappointed. Got two dishes and they were amazing. They are artists with tofu, and with flavours. Such flavours. All working together. And the taste it left in my mouth afterwards. I can't get over it. Will come back. Often. Thanks guys. Awesome

Great place, run by the same people who do Junk in Maroochydore. Offers the same sort of tasty and inexpensive Asian tapas. Calimari was excellent, and the fried chicken was probably the least impressive dish. But putting the leftover calimari sauce on the fried chicken was a winning idea. In any case, well worth a visit.

Went here tonight for the 2nd time. The food was unbelievable!! Sooo good!! The only thing that let them down tonight was the staff. Not sure what was going on, but all were very abrupt, no smiles, no friendliness whatsoever. I hope they were just having a bad night. The food was good enough to go back and give them another chance, but the staff definitely need to cheer up. Give it a go, hopefully ours was just a one off.

This has to be the best Asian food on the Sunshine Coast. Deliciously fragrant - great share dishes and reasonably priced. Loved all the dishes we tried these included Pork Belly, Ginger and Pork dumplings and the best Green chicken curry - definitely will return on our next visit to the coast. Yum
