Sandra Rice & Noodles Says Goodbye

July 24, 2025

Sandra Rice & Noodles is saying goodbye after 18 years in Lawrence.

We want to recognize Sang and Ha Nguyen — the brother-and-sister team who brought fresh, made-from-scratch Vietnamese cuisine and hospitality to Pendleton Pike.

Their story began across the world and came full circle in Lawrence, where they ran a beloved restaurant together.

Ha is now retiring, and Sandra Rice & Noodles is closing its doors. Thank you, Sang and Ha, for nearly two decades of flavor, tradition, and heart. Good luck in your next chapter!
