I love Chinese food, and especially love Beaverdale. I really try to support the businesses there, so trying this out was a no-brainer. I hate saying anything negative about a locally owned business but I was really disappointed by the Rice Bowl. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken. The chicken was so fried, that I could really only taste the very crunchy breading instead of any chicken. The crunchy breading pieces were drowned in the sweet and sour sauce, making for a saucy fried mess. Perhaps it was just a bad night, and I am willing to give it another chance and try something different next time.

I liked the RB. The food was good and the service relatively fast. The RB set up looks like an old Coney Island with the orange benches. If you don't care about the outdated atmosphere, the food is good.
