Dans l ensemble, Café Le Nigiriz donne une impression de lieu cosy et élégant où les onigiri sont la vedette et préparés à la commande avec des ingrédients frais. Le menu propose des garnitures variées allant du thon épicé au yuzu mentaiko, en passant par le saumon grillé et le thon mayo, et les avis saluent le goût et la présentation soignée des onigiri, tandis que le hojicha latte, le matcha latte et le kinako latte sont souvent décrits comme réconfortants et remarquables. L ambiance et les détails du decor, comme le sol decoré de pièces, sont fréquemment cités comme un atout, et le personnel est souvent décrit comme sympathique et attentif, même si certaines visites relatent un service plus lent ou des moments de moindre chaleur. Certaines remarques remettent en question la valeur du rapport qualité-prix ou la taille des portions par rapport à des options voisines, mais beaucoup trouvent ce cafe charmant et mémorable pour une pause japonaise détendue et une boisson agréable, avec l envie de revenir.
Edit: unfortunately it seems their prices have increased drastically this summer for their staples, matcha & hojicha lattes, but the quality is noticeably lower 😔 $7+ for a drink makes it so that this place is no longer an affordable place to drop in, but an unsustainable luxury that a lot of regulars won't be able to afford. Used to come here a lot, but the rise in price & drop in quality is quite disappointing to see 🫤
Such a cozy atmosphere & their Onigiri were so good! I got the diable & the Ajitawa Onigiri with a Hojicha latte. & I must say, the Hojicha latte was amazing, I am happy I tried it out💙

We had an onigiri craving (again) & followed it straight here, & honestly? Zero regrets. The place is wonderfully cozy. The menu is packed with creative flavors, & the ones we tried - spicy tuna & sun-dried tomato - were genuinely excellent: super fresh, well-balanced, & dangerously easy to inhale.
Bonus points for the Valentine's Day chaos: they're shaping the onigiri like little hearts until then. Yes, it's corny. Yes, it's adorable. & yes, we are absolutely here for it. I paired mine with a hojicha latte, which was smooth, comforting, & quietly doing its job very well.
Also worth mentioning: the pennies embedded in the floor, which is such a fun, quirky detail.
All in all, carbs can be cute, cozy, & emotionally supportive. We'll be back. Probably soon. 🍙💛
Really cozy & quiet spot near the bustling St. Laurent Ave. I got a hojicha latte, which is one of the best ones I've had - highly recommend it! I also tried the tuna onigiri, which was a bit too much mayo for my taste, but still very tasty. Everything is decently priced & I look forward to trying the other onigiris next time.

Cute Onigiri spot , the Umi & dry tomato onigiri are our fav. Hojicha is pretty good & their combos make it a somewhat accessible meal. I just wished they had more sitting spaces , as people with laptops take over the table spots for extended periods of time, leaving people who don't come to stall in stools by the corner.
I LOVE this café!!! Their matcha & hojicha lattes are both insanely good (the best I've ever had!) & their onigiri are tasty, filling, & reasonably priced. The decor is gorgeous & the atmosphere is great. The owners & staff are always very nice & welcoming. I've told all of my friends about this place & I couldn't recommend them enough!
What a cozy, serene feel once stepped into this Japanese cafe? Really no expect that this cafe's so cool. Their hojicha lattes made by Japanese themselves is really different than foreign hands, right? The hojicha here tastes really good.....rich aroma, creamy & smooth unlike I had been tasted so far. Even, their onigri shaped round is unique form to me....what a good combination Asian tea-times with an aesthetic atmosphere? 🥰🍵🍘🌬️
Best hojicha latte I've ever had. It was so thick, nutty/tasty flavor, not too sweet. It almost reminded me of a Korean multigrain drink. Loved that they had an option for oat milk as well. The matcha biscuit had a pleasantly strong matcha flavor.
Nice cafe with some delicious light foods. I ordered the hojicha latte with oat milk & a ajitama onigiri. It is like a chilled patty of seasoned rice & meat topped with a pickled boiled. egg. They unfortunately do not have decaf coffee. But service is nice & the place is beautiful. No AC for hot days either.
Best hojicha latte I've ever had in Montreal!! So delicious & not diluted. Service was amazing & the cafe itself is so cute & calm!! Would come back for the hojicha latte again itself. Wish I ordered a large instead of a regular size.

4.5. Best matcha I've had in Montreal. The hojicha latté was also great. For food I'd recommend the umé (plum nigiri) & the eggplant side. Service & atmosphere were both nice. -0.5 stars just because they use ALOT of plastic even when it's not to go.
Probably the best hojicha latte I've ever had! So smooth & creamy. I will be back to try the matcha one. The onigiri is very fresh & tasty- my favorite is the seasoned egg (ajitama) one. The space is very beautiful & cozy. The wall & ceiling detailing is quite unique & beautiful. This place has a great atmosphere for meeting up with a friend, or working/studying at a cafe.
The onigiri that i choose was the tuna mayo & it's good. When you dine in, they will serve the onigiri open, then you need to fold it by yourself. It's an interesting experience before you eat. They also has miso soup, which is good, coffee, & matcha hojicha latte. The place atmosphere is cozy & good to relax & hang out
This place was ultra cute & the folks working here were so nice. The woman putting together the orders was very sweet & took the time to explain the flavors to the people in front of us in line. We got the tuna, salmon, & karage ones & they were great. The rice was perfectly paired with the Hojicha latte. All in all delicious. We got one mystery flavor: It was delicious!!! We will definitely be back!
