Japanese dishes especially the avocado tower always consistently delicious. Fresh and very flavorful this place never disappoints. From the Japanese dishes to the jalapeno rangoons on the Chinese menu always excellent.

Dan’s Rice Box is a counter-service location with takeout and tables inside. For 2, we ordered pork fried egg rolls, steamed pork dumplings, takoyaki (on the specials list) and an assortment of sushi and sashimi. All of the food was great, and we had leftovers for lunch the next day. The pork dumplings are the best I’ve had in the area so far with great flavor and a delicious sauce and will be a go-to order on nights we don’t have time or interest in cooking. Service was very friendly and efficient and the fountain inside makes for a nice atmosphere. We’ll be back!

I opened my order and I can smell the fine spices used to make it and food is Fresh. The Singapore MI fun is really tasty (I ordered it spicy). Orange chicken here is also really good, not too sweet Chicken is tender Fried crisp. Do not complete your order without a Egg drop soup, they have the best egg drop soup in Groton. ...

The hot and sour soup is the best I've had from any place around here. It's the perfect go to soup for the sick season. Pork dumplings, general Tso's chicken, udon noodles, and their lo mein are all on point. The food isn't oily. My new go-to spot for Chinese food.

The food here is amazing! My boyfriend & I moved down here this time last year, and we've ordered semi-regularly ever since. I love the steamed pork dumplings, and he usually gets the beef lo mein. The foods always done up quickly, and their sons who help out at the window are real sweet & funny.
