That being said, it is a bit overpriced given what the same dollar value can get you at other restaurants in the area. As a Cal student it is very convenient to order through snack pass so I'm very happy it's an option when I'm craving it, however it is not my everyday choice.

They are near UC Berkeley, but more off to the side, which I prefer because it gets kind of hectic down the street where all the other food places are. Parking is either street or garage parking. Each onigiri used to be about $6, but now it is almost $10 for one and I usually like getting both the Go Cal Onigiri and the Go Bears Onigiri. I must say they are filling though, but it is on the pricier side. They also do not have the hot pressed boba toasts which were unique and pretty good.

In the process of doing so, they are able to add in more toppings and meat. Ordering at Riceful is easy and quick. There's a digital menu outside where you select what you want, pay, and are even given a digital countdown of when your order will be ready. I went with the soft shell crab riceful and it took about 8 min to make from when I put in my order. (I'm not sure what to call this new creation, so I'm gonna call it a rice wich. The rice wich was warm to the touch when I received it, and would continue to stay warm for the next 45 min before I could properly eat it. Despite the really long time between picking up the order and eating it, the food was really good! The soft shell crab still had a crunch to it and I could even taste the crab. Sometimes places will over batter or over cook the crab, in effect destroying any flavor of the actual crab. Riceful did a great job of cooking it! Combined with the mayo and lettuce, my soft shell crab rice wich was perfect. Even though the food was delicious, the price was not. Each rice wich ranges from $8 up to $12. It's quite expensive for the amount of food that you get. I think if the price were closer to $6 or $7 you'd find this place packed. Until then, I'll only visit this place once in a blue moon.

When you entered your helping yourself with a computer and to ur choosing your food selection. So I can't really tell you about customer service because the computer was my source . It's a small restaurant more like a to go food place then staying . Ambiance is located on a busy street so parking can be a hassle . Yes there's a garage across the street but more for ppl are in a rush and just to grab and go .

I've also enjoyed the Cal sandwich fake crab meat). However, the portion size is somewhat small so I am often still hungry afterwards. Also, there is no seating area. You just order on Snackpass and take your food to-go.

Riceful is a fantastic restaurant that offers a burst of flavor with every bite. However, I do find it to be a bit on the expensive side. read more Riceful is a fantastic restaurant that offers a burst of flavor with every bite. However, I do find it to be a bit on the expensive side.

I'm already looking forward to trying more flavors next time. Plus, the prices are really affordable - the cheapest item is under $5!! I can definitely see myself ordering from here for catering events or parties in the future.

Very creative Japanese fusion rice ball. Business is not that busy after one in the afternoon. You can order from the kiosk from the outside store.

We ordered Porksung Origini (porksung, bean curd, egg, spam, mayo and their house sauce). It tasted quite good. It lacked balance between protein, carb andsauce, so the taste was under flavor. It would have been better with more sauce and protein to flavor the rice.

A little messy as it fell apart a bit while eating. I do wish the unagi pieces were a bit bigger. I was left with half the onigiri with just spam and egg, but that was still very tasty. I’d definitely go back. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I am used to smaller and less expensive. I thought I was going to get a snack but I paid more and it was a meal. Very good and worth trying.
