some rules have to be broken.
Grain of Rice in Edmonton is all about bringing traditional Asian cuisine, locally sourced ingredients and exceptional service together. This is a challenge in Asian-business culture, as previous generations have valued reducing costs over providing outstanding quality. To overcome this challenge, we believe that some rules must be amended.
The best Chinese & Vietnamese Cuisine in Edmonton
At Grain of Rice, we’re more than just a Chinese restaurant—we’re a small, family-owned business with a big passion for authentic flavours and community roots. Nestled in the heart of West Edmonton, we bring you the best of Vietnamese and Chinese cuisine, from steaming bowls of pho to sizzling stir-fries, all crafted with fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
Our family believes in food that’s good for you and the planet. That’s why we partner with Edmonton farmers and suppliers to fill our open kitchen with the freshest produce, meats, and herbs—straight from our local fields to your plate. Whether it’s the rich, aromatic broth of our pho or the vibrant veggies in our Chinese fried rice, every bite reflects our commitment to quality and sustainability.
We’re proud to cater to all appetites with a range of gluten-free and vegan options. Craving a light Vietnamese vermicelli bowl? We’ve got gluten-free choices packed with flavour. Looking for plant-based comfort? Our vegan stir-fries and noodle dishes deliver. As a family that calls West Edmonton home, we’re dedicated to supporting local—lifting up our neighbours while serving up dishes that bring people together.
If you remember Treasury Restaurant in Edmonton from the early 2000s, Grain of Rice was born from the ashes of the tragic accident that happened in 2012. We are back and delivering the same delicious high quality Asian cuisine that our community loves. Read more about our history here.
Grain of Rice's Infused Water
Filtered water infused with mint leaves, lemon wedges and sliced cucumber. Fresh every fill.
The cost of living does not mean you can't enjoy the small things at Grain of Rice. We provide each and every customer who enters our restaurant with complimentary infused water. Just to make things a little less boring.
Locally sourced ingredients
Alberta is a unique province. We truly experience the 4 seasons in their full force, from scorching summers to blistering cold winters. This doesn't mean we stop trying to help each other out because that is not the Albertan way.
Our business sources ingredients locally, as much as humanly possible. From our cauliflowers to free-range eggs, we ensure the dollar goes back to the Alberta economy. Naturally, some of the Asian ingredients cannot be sourced locally because of our climate, but that doesn't mean we stop trying at Grain of Rice.
