Chick N Rice in downtown Brainerd had been on our radar for a while. After seeing their social media posts showcasing mouthwatering dishes, it was time to check it out.
Opened in July 2024, Chick N Rice brings a unique fusion of Thai flavors and South American cuisine to the Brainerd Lakes Area. The restaurant's bold flavors and fresh ingredients make it a must-visit spot for food lovers.
Our Experience at Chick N Rice
We arrived for lunch and managed to beat the rush—just in time, as the place quickly started to fill up!
For our meal, we ordered:
2 Tenders + 1 Chicken Sandwich with a Side
Lemon Chicken Coconut Soup (which was amazing)
Garlic Rice as our side
Everything was freshly made, packed with flavor, and didn’t last long on our plates. The combination of spices and textures made for an incredible meal. Next time, we’re eyeing The Peruvian and the Supreme Mac & Cheese!
