"Just went for lunch here, it’s pretty good , high quality ingredients so the price reflects this but in 2026 everything is expensive anyway"
"Really good vietnamese food and they had a separate gluten free menu too which had about 30 odd dishes and didnt cost an arm and leg. Really good food and special mention to Seth who works there top guy"
"This is my third time here and it never misses! Quality of food and flavour is so good and my favourite thing to come for is their dessert 10/10 without a doubt. It’s so good to the point, I even wasn’t going to comment about it cause I want to gatekeep it. Lol, but have to give them their props cause my fiancée and I always love coming here even though we’re from the south side of Melbourne. Definitely worth the drive."
"Came down here on a Sunday night,l to celebrate Mid Autumn festival. rice fields has a Cantonese and Vietnamese influence, we ordered rice paper rolls and pho, delectable but not their forte. We also ordered special fried rice, pipis in XO sauce, lemon chicken, Chinese broccoli and sizzling beef finishing off with Pavlova. Sizzling beef is the best, the food is ok but nothing that would entice you to revisit."
"Consistent quality food and service, which we prefer with a group of friends, when planning a catch up. Despite being busy with locals, even on weekdays, we've never felt rushed, or judged for our groups laughter. Thank you Rice Fields team"
