Asian fusion BBQ with smoked meats, rice bowls & sandwiches
"Ricewood has become an essential local dining spot for its rice bowls topped with a variety of Texas-style barbecue and spicy finadene sauce. The Maple Road location also features a rotating monthlong special burger packed with complex layers of flavor that should not be missed. Previous specials included a reuben burger with a half brisket/half pastrami patty and the Pogi — two Filipino longaniza sausage patties, grilled pineapple, pickled papaya, and Russian dressing." - John Reyes
"Ricewood developed a strong lunchtime following as a food truck with its smoked meats served Chamorro- style over rice and with a spicy finadene sauce. Now open year-round inside York, the restaurant stall has also added limited specials such as tacos, Szechuan-style smoked chicken, and brisket burgers. Customers can visit Ricewood inside of York or order online for pickup." - John Reyes
"If you’re looking for something notably different, Ricewood sells whole smoked briskets with sides of pineapple barbecue and finadene sauces, trays of mac and cheese are also available, and a ticket is required to reserve a brisket." - John Reyes
"Ricewood has moved from the back parking lot to a walk-up counter inside York. It will now operate year-round, offering Chamorro smoked meats and expanding its menu to include more sandwiches and a daily sausage. Dinner service will feature mainstream American-style barbecue with traditional sides. The indoor operations were expected to begin over Memorial Day weekend but have been delayed." - John Reyes
"Ricewood’s offerings are as unique as they are often hard to get. Instead of the usual sauces and sides, smoked meats are served Chamorro-style over rice and with a spicy finadene (soy, vinegar, peppers, and scallions) sauce. Get there early as the restaurant often sells out in less than an hour." - John Reyes
