RiceBurg Brookline

RiceBurg on Cypress Street builds its menu around rice burgers and customizable bowls. Bulgogi steak, marinated chicken, chicken katsu and shiitake mushroom appear in different formats, with vegan katsu available too. A bowl lets you choose toppings and sauces; the rice burgers come in set combinations, including spicy or sweet-and-sour katsu versions.

Japanese-style curry offers another route, served with rice or salad and a choice of protein. Scallion pancakes, popcorn chicken and spring rolls round out an order, and bubble tea has its own menu section. This is the Brookline shop at 6 Cypress Street, separate from the Wellesley restaurant. The Brookline location closes on Sundays. For pickup or delivery, choose that branch before customizing a bowl, since the two shops have different schedules.
