I work in the prudential and they always have a table in the shops below. Every time I go to the little fake food truck section I always go here--i admit ive never actually been to the other trucks/tables because these guys are so amazing. You cant go wrong with any option-chicken/lamb/tofu. The sauces that you can combine the food with are even better-props for the super spicey hot sauce and the creamy garlic. The service is fast too, and the people behind the table are always friendly.

This is about the food truck, including the one at MGH on Mondays. The food is actually great, but getting the food is a nightmare. I am able to get food 1 out of every 4 weeks. Reasons include: out of propane to cook food (4 times now), ran out of chicken, truck didnt come...all of which occurred less than 1 hour after the truck arrive at 11am. Cant rely on them for a change in lunch on Mondays.

I love Love LOVE the food here. Very simple but extremely well-seasoned and their sauces are delicious. I tend to always get the lamb and chicken and mix the garlic and the hot sauce together. Besides the food they serve, all the girls working behind the counter are always extremely pleasant and make my lunch trip that more enjoyable. 5 stars all the way. Great job Chicken and Rice Guys!

Chicken and Rice guys are fast, reasonably priced, and tasty. You can pick a protein to go on their rice, and add any of their sauces: creamy garlic, cilantro, medium or hot spicy sauces. A great place to grab quick lunch or dinner to go when you dont have time to make it yourself, without breaking the bank. Everyone there is always quick and friendly!

Great lunch place or to pick up food for a quick dinner. There is often a long line at the lunch hour rush time but they move through it quickly. They do take credit cards here. There is one small table that I wouldnt plan on sitting at unless you come at an off time. The best part is putting all the sauces you want in your container before you go!

Very good value. Nice seasoning on their meats and rice. Fast service despite the long lines. I think their sauces (specially the garlic) are overhyped and I was very ddisappointed with the bread (not toasted). They come to the office which is nice but while the weather is still bearable Ill walk to Aceituna and spend a couple more dollars there.

Poor food quality.. And no soda, No coke or pepsi, I grew up drinking coke or pepsi and it stinks having to leave here to get a beverage... I talked to dude working counter, he said the owners dont make enough money to keep selling it, BUT you sell disgusting soda in a bottle, what are you trying to prove...

I love chicken and rice guys. Their store is super simple also. Small with no seating. They have one table which was taken by a customer while I was there during an off time. Person will immediately ask for your order so maybe come knowing what you want.

OMG. Just ... OMG. LOVE the food from this tiny place! I always get the lamb and then add LOTS and LOTS of garlic sauce. Plus, I get two small tins of garlic sauce to go - just to add even more garlic sauce while devouring down the lamb and rice. OMG.

Nice, quick service from either the truck or the little shop. You just HAVE to use the creamy garlic sauce (I use BBQ too) - makes the plate so good! And if youre feeling extra hungry, get the mountain size. Massive portion but oh-so-good. ;)

The food was really good.. Very sad that they dont open on the weekend. The staffs where very nice.. Oh ya this one staff was playing this amazing music(it was more beat than vocals) I stayed just to listen to it after getting my food....

Really poor quality of food. Went there for the first time with my whole family, only to receive three day old pita bread, dry chicken over rice, and its waaaay too over priced for the portion size. Youre better off going somewhere else.

I knew the legend but was never patient enough to wait in line. Finally walked by mid-afternoon and, even though I had already eaten, there was a line of one so I knew I had to partake. I got a small chicken and was not disappointed.

Restaurant looks dirty, all the meats are cooked right next to each other and they consistently run out of meat before they close. The chicken (all Ive tried) tastes like it is very cheap and low quality. Not a fan.

Little secret! Its delicious. Very inexpensive and very fast service. All sorts of sauces and Im never hungry or dissatisfied after a meal here. Really great place! Have gotten the combo and the lamb is delicious!

I frequent here for lunch. Their food is really tasty. There is always a long line during lunch but it lives very quickly since the menu is limited and the staff is super fast. I highly recommend it.

I like their small size dish. Its cheaper (about $6) and I can actually finish all of it. Rice was a bit dry. Salad is good. Overall a decent lunch place

Delicious! Get here early (or late) by noon the line is almost always down the block. Also, there is no seating - its take out only.

I have an addiction to CNRG. The only thing I do not like is getting a batch towards the bottom, as that chicken is overly spiced.

Chicken and Rice Guys is a staple in my weekly lunch routine. If its your first time here you have to try the creamy garlic sauce.

The best chicken and rice in Boston. I have had chicken and rice from the halal guys in N.Y. And the one in Boston is better...

Not close to NYC Halal cart food quality, but all the sauces are great and helps add a bit of the Halal spirit to it.

So good. Reasonably priced place for work lunch. Pretty basic though on choices.
