Rice Vice

My last review was in the old location. Proper Sake took this well thought out, well researched, well executed product and built out the perfect space for it. I'm all in on sake. I want to try all of it! The space is gorgeous. It's in a non-descript industrial area that is soon to be describt with the new neighbors. It's so well thought out. The wood throughout the small, extremely Japanese space is intoxicating. They have amazing, new on the seen food partners pop up. This is a hidden gem. You're going to get knowledgeable service, pouring a top tier product, in a place you would least expect it. Please go support it!

Fun spot. I'm glad to see more intimate bar atmospheres. Not everything needs to be a full on super bar experience. Also it's fun to talk to the people behind the types of sake they have available to try as well as their beers on tap and cocktails. Do a flight of the sake. They have local versions but also their elite imports as well. Also they have bites to try while you're there. Definitely a fun experience especially if you're looking for a date spot before or after dinner. It's fun conversations and something actually different from the usual spots for hangs.

We really enjoyed Proper Sake/Rice Vice. Small place but great drinks! We came here for drinks for a friends birthday. They were very accommodating with our large group! Bartenders were super efficient! Quiet spot on a Saturday afternoon. There are drinks for everyone here, Sake drinkers, non sake drinkers, and non alcohol drinkers! The Sake as well as the highballs were great! Those in our group who don't do alcohol really enjoyed the Kombucha options! Plenty of really cool sake options here too! Not many food options but great spot to grab drinks before hitting some of the other east side dining options!

Super super cool spot. We went for a birthday. I love the ambiance. The decor and the music were nice. They have like 30 different types of sake. I only tried two but u liked them a lot. There was only one server but she was polite and efficient. This is a really cool spot to take on a date that's low key and swanky. There is parking and an outside patio area too. While you are permitted to bring food (party no brought stuff) they have a kitchen too. I would recommend coming here.

You guys are sweet, perfect beautiful angels. Service is A+, drinks are crispy and the pop ups here are amazing. I love the vinyl's spinning, the vibe and craftsmanship, and the sake offered. Super intimate and the drinks are quality. I could see this becoming a regular place to visit.

If a small sake shop with cat decor, cat magazine, and vinyl records is your jam, you'll LOVE Rice Vice. It's a very specific place with a very curated vibe, which I appreciated. The bartender was super nice and not only helped us pick a few sakes to try but also let us pick some new pages out of the cat magazines to use as menu backers. They served a handful of Japanese and other east Asian snacks, so we enjoyed a couple different flavors of chips with our sake. (If I recall correctly, the crab curry chips were outrageously good.) Will definitely be back with any sake loving friends.

We recently enjoyed the new updated version of Proper Rice now known as Rice Vice and loved it even more than their former location. The indoor area is intimate with lots of wood, clean lines and mustard yellow velvet cushions. Spinning vinyls inside was an unexpected, but memorable touch. We were also surprised to find a delicious pop up outside (Foods with Metta, I'll review soon) Bartenders were extremely personable and confident to know which sakes should be iced or not. I enjoyed a gin and tonic that featured a tonic from Peninsula's kitchen and my husband had a sake created for Sean Brock's new experience Japanese inspired Yama located within Audrey. I loved seeing such local collaborations and the results were better than we imagined. Looking forward to a repeat visit soon and keeping an eye on the various pop ups outside. Although they did have instant ramen noodles on their snack menu, so I might not sleep on those next time either.

Linda and had a wonderful time. Byron the owner and our wattress Courtney were very friendly and very patient with all of our questons. The trip from Nolensville was very worthwhile! The Rice Father sake and the Ginjo! Ka highball were each the bomb! We will definitely be back.

Love everything I've tried at Rice Vice, and most of all I love the vibes. Fun fact - some of the battling troll scenes from Ernest Scared Stupid were filmed here.

Very chill and relaxing but not many options if you don't like sake much. Everything they do is great though and the people are friendly.
