You've never seen so much good food as the big baby breakfast. Where else are you going to get smoked meat with your eggs? Delicious twists on the classic eggs benny are so refreshing... as are vegetables with brunch! Also, you have the option of having other Rice Bar specialites like fresh daily soups and rice puddings for dessert. The BEST Bento Boxes (with sashimi!). For under $10, you can get a box with 10 pieces of sashimi (decent quality), 6 california rolls, shrimp & vegetable tempura, salad, rice, and soup. They have 12 different boxes, all of which are great.
Also, they always give you little free snacks for the table, including edamame and glass noodles, and some chunks of fruit for dessert. I come mostly for food stuffs and not supplements, and I love cruising the bulk bins. Not only are most of the bulk products a good deal, but they have almost everything under the sun in the way of pasta, rice, flour, sugar, coffee, tea, spices, and who knows what else. My new favourite item is Pumpkin Flax Granola - yum. Also, the owners are friendly and helpful with finding stuff when it's not too busy. I go here to get exactly what I want instead of trends and espresso. Everyone is really friendly attentive, and fun. The hair dye is Farouk Chi, which is nice because it's natural and doesn't choke you or irritate your scalp. And I'm never ever rushed. The food is wonderfully fresh and reasonably healthy, which is nice for cheap food. The beer is also cheap, if somewhat warm in the summer. But I can't say I go for the service (which is friendly, but sparse).
