Joe's Steam Rice Roll

Very tasty steam rice roll, too bad didn't have enough time to try other dishes, but the one we had was great.

What is there better to crave than fresh rice Rolls?

Had the BBQ Pork and Shrimp ones. Shrimp was fantastic, BBQ Pork was not so much to my taste.
Enhance them with your own portioning of sauces to your liking!

Big and tasty serving size.

Service was mediocre. I was the only person in store so I would have expected it to turn out differently. I'd suggest to take the food to go and sit in a park! As the ambience is also nothing special and limited seating available only.

Joe's Steam Rice Roll in NYC is a must-visit spot for anyone looking to try simple yet delicious food. The concept is unique in that they specialize in steam rice rolls, a popular snack in China. The rice rolls are freshly made and filled with a variety of ingredients like pork, shrimp, vegetables, and more.

I tried the pork and shrimp rice rolls and was blown away by the tenderness of the meat and the freshness of the vegetables. The rice roll itself was soft and chewy, and the sauce added just the right amount of flavor. What I loved most about Joe's Steam Rice Roll was that the menu is so simple, yet everything is done exceptionally well.

The prices are also very reasonable, making this a great spot for a quick lunch or snack. The service was also friendly and efficient. Overall, Joe's Steam Rice Roll is a great concept with delicious food that is sure to satisfy. Highly recommended!

I had the veggie (corn, scallion, bean) rice roll. It had nice texture but lacked flavor. 100% must put both sauces on it to make it better.
Maybe next time I'll try the shrimp. Sounds like that's the favorite amongst reviewers. I'd give it another shot. All the tables were dirty, staff had plenty of time to clean as the place was empty. Yucky

Absolutely love going to a place that specializes in one type of dish-- you know it's got to be good!

There was an array of steamed rice rolls. The list was extensive but it really comes down to what protein you want and sauce.

The texture of the rice rolls was fantastic-- thin enough to not break apart and thick enough for a good bite. They looked delicate but held together nicely. It's nice that the rolls weren't too oily (a problem for some other places when they try to make them not stick).

The restaurant was casual. Limited seating but it wasn't too bad of a wait during lunch time (seemed like most people were ordering take out / pick-up).
