To our friends and customers in Ottawa/Gatineau, thank you for your many years of support for the long-established Japanese restaurant, Festival Japan! Every time I look back on the wonderful 20 years at FJ, what moves me the most is not just the food, but all of you đź’—
Although we closed FJ at the end of last year, I am very happy to tell you that I have returned with the brand-new Rice-Mi at FJ's original location — 149 Kent street in Ottawa downtown! Rice-Mi is a new brand created in collaboration with a chef from China. This is my second Rice-Mi location, and we are dedicated to providing delicious and affordable lunches and dinners. Lunch prices range from $10-$15, and dinner single person combo set start from $22 (includes soup and rice).
Whether you are looking for a relaxed team lunch, want to host a warm birthday party, or just want a place to enjoy good food and music, our commitment remains: a warm, home-like atmosphere + affordable and tasty Asian home-style cooking. Welcome to book your next gathering with family and friends! Thank you very much!
To make a reservation, please contact Samantha (Founder of Rice-Mi) at 613-852-6895 or 613-234-1224
