★★★★★ 5.0 Mel B · Mar 2026

We got yellowfin ahi tuna and hurricane chicken. Chicken was extremely juicy and food was truly authentic, the Mac salad was great, but the rice was flavorless and way overcooked. Overall the dishes were extremely delicious! Worth the try!

The food was delicious! We came up from Walhalla, SC to ride the #GSMR and wanted something different for dinner before the long ride home. Love supporting FoodTrucks so we did a Google search and found “The Rice Wagon” My son had the KaluPork My wife got the Chicken Katsu I got the Yellowfin ahi tuna All of it was so tasty and we ate in the Mountain Layers Brewery great atmosphere upstairs. We will definitely be back to eat after our next trail ride 5⭐️for The Rice Wagon ❤️

I was not expecting to find authentic Hawaiian flavors in the middle of the mountains, but The Rice Wagon absolutely exceeded my expectations. This permanent food truck, located right outside Mountain Layers Brewery, was busy for a reason. They serve up generous plates packed with flavor, from Loco Moco to Garlic Chicken, and everything I tried was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is fun, the food is fantastic, and the portions will definitely leave you satisfied. Whether you are looking for a great meal or just want to try something different, The Rice Wagon is a spot you do not want to miss.

Amazing flavor! I live in Alabama went to a long weekend vacation with my husband to the mountains, we casually found the place when looking for food. So glad we ended eating here! I ordered the chicken katsu & was delicious (reminds me to the one I had in Japan, very authentic flavor) I will go back next time we visit the area!

My Husband and I ate here on our honeymoon to Bryson City! We got the combo plate and had the Garlic Chicken along with the Loco Moco! The combo came with both entrees, 2 scoops of rice and Macaroni Salad a ton of food for 2 people to share. The flavors of everything were phenomenal, and went so well together!! We will definitely be stopping in one more time before we go home! All in all we give them a 100/10!
