La Vernia's Neighborhood Chinese Kitchen
Fresh, Fast & Full of Flavor
Hot-off-the-wok favorites, generous portions, and a family that treats every order like it's for their own table.
Our Story
A Small-Town Kitchen, Big on Flavor
Tucked into a cozy brick building on Chihuahua Street, Rice 2 Go has become La Vernia's go-to spot for real Chinese-American comfort food. Behind the red-trimmed porch and glowing sign is a kitchen that cares — dishes are made fresh to order, portions are generous, and the same warm hospitality greets every regular who walks through the door.
Guests keep coming back for a reason: the egg drop soup that regulars call "the best I've had," a jalapeño shrimp with real kick, and a lemon chicken served crispy with the sauce on the side so it never gets soggy. Whether you're stopping in for a quick lunch special or ordering a full spread to go, everything comes out hot, fresh, and generously portioned.
It's a family-run restaurant in a small town where good Chinese food isn't easy to find — which is exactly why Rice 2 Go has earned such loyal regulars. As one guest put it after their first visit: "We will definitely be back because food, price and portions are on point."
