About this business

You should feel very special to eat at this place, probably because this could be the only rice pudding restaurant in the world. Started by a very well experienced chef Jemal Edwards, this place has grown to be a popular joint for the food it serves. The restaurant serves about 18 different flavors of rice pudding and the chef is working on discovering more flavors day by day. So come down here for a bowl of rice pudding which come with a variety of toppings. Rice to Riches is a must visit in New York.

Awesome product, worst service ever! – I have been to Rice to Riches a thousand times (believe me, I've put a lot of pretty pennies in there during the past 3 years!), and there's no doubt this is my favorite spot for desserts in the city. Every time I can, I bring my family and friends with me to be delighted with the great flavors on rice pudding. HOWEVER, during my most recent visit on Sunday evening last week, I had the worst service I've ever received at any store in NY. I don't remember the name of the f@!##%ng girl wh... read more

Fantastic! – The flavors are simply fantastic. Nothing else tastes quite like this and it's gluten-free for your non-gluten people. The store is cheerful and clean and very cool, and it's a perfect indulgence for yourself after a hard day's work or a movie night. Every out of town guest I have taken there has raved about it. Wish they would get rid of those unrecycle-able plastic containers. (And the staff uniforms are dorky and look like they are working for a fast food joint, but it's NOT!) Must try!!!

Shame on them! Destroying the environment, the economy and a foreign country. – This place has awesome rice pudding! The downside - and why I can no longer go - is that they use plastic everything - super thick dishes and spoons, bottled water, and none of it is recycled or even recyclable. No conscientious person could eat there after seeing the amount of petroleum based products that are going to our NY landfills for the next million years. Shame on them! We asked an employee about recycling and she said confirmed that non... read more

Expensive! – The business model is good, it is very clean and trendy, but honestly it is $8 for a medium pudding which is truly outrageous. Yeah the flavor is good and you get a cute container, but seriously this is an indulgence.

SOOOOOOOO GOOD!! – If you hate rice pudding, then you've never had Rice to Riches. It is THE BEST rice pudding you will ever eat. They have so many flavors, its tough to narrow it down to a couple, but we tried man made mascarpone, almond shmalmond, and tiramisu...they were AHHHHHMAZING! My husband doesn't like rice pudding, but when he tasted mine I couldn't pull it away from him. He's hooked now! He tried other rice puddings when we got back to Texas and none could compare, so we have it shipped now...YES they ship!! It's ... read more

Rice Pudding at its best; Containers not environmentally friendly – I am a fan of your wonderful rice puddings. You have truly created a unique product and people come from all over the world to have a taste. You are definitely a smart entrepreneur and I believe, as most of your customers do, that you have created a lasting brand. So, because I care about this wonderful planet that has been created for us, I am kindly asking you to consider using recyclable containers for your rice pudding. I feel as though it is such a wast... read more

Sooooo good – Finally went to Rice to Riches and I was in heaven! I'm a rice pudding fan... I even like those little Cozy Shack cups @ the supermarket. So when I heard about this place I had to try it out. It was amaaaazing! I had the cinnamon swirl warmed up with oatmeal cookie crumb topping... and finished the entire serving which I swore I wasn't going to do. It was so good though I couldn't help it! My friend had the rocky road... a bit too rich for me but also delicious. We sampled a few other flavors as well and every ... read more

Excvellent and very tasty rice pudding – This is not your typical milk and rice pudding. There is so much flavor and authenticity within this pudding. It taste homemade - like one you have never tasted. It is definitely worth the visit. I'm not a big fan of rice pudding, but this will automatically change your mind. Put the diet thing aside after you have tasted what this place has to offer.

The best rice pudding I've ever had! – This has got to be the best tasting rice pudding I've ever had. I've tried the vanilla wafer, chocolate chip, eggnog (only available during the holidays) and the cheesecake flavors. They were all great! :) If you love homemade rice pudding (it really tastes homemade) then RICE TO RICHES is a MUST! ENJOY!
