Firstly, the lady working here was really nice & provided quick service. The taste of the onigiris were ok, but the value was lacking. Each onigiri was quite pricey (between 6-7$ each, & was mostly filled with rice & very little of everything else. I was very excited for the ebi tempura onigiri, but it only turned out to be one ebi tempura on top & the rest was just rice. The salmon onigiri was disappointing as it was just cooked, shredded salmon & quite plain (again, mostly rice). The tuna was the best. It was cooked tuna similar to canned tuna, but more innovative & had a great sauce. I didn't get to try the drinks but they looked very interesting. As much as I love supporting local businesses, I hope they would consider adding more filling inside the onigiri.

Wow I'm shocked at the lack of protein in the onigiri here. I paid over $50 for 4 onigiri, matcha & a soda. One tiny shrimp at the top of the ebi onigiri... Let's say I feel ripped off & I regret buying from here. The taste is fine but it the value is not there.

Delicious. Some of the best Dango & Onigiri I've had in mtl & the worker was very kind.

This is a stall at Jean Talon Market. Not in the place Google map indicated in the lane of boites de huitres but beside Casa di Toto stall. Very generous sized onigiri & fairly tasty.

The market itself is fairly loud..

Went here & ordered a tuna & salmon onigiri. Wow, I gotta say they packed a lot of food into this onigiri making this a great value buy. Probably the best value in the entire place. The fish was delicious & the flavour very yummy. My daughter loved her salmon onigiri. Full marks from me.

De passage à Montréal ce week-end, nous avons adoré cette adresse ! On sent le souci du détail & la qualité des ingrédients. Tout était délicieux. Une excellente découverte que je recommande sans hésiter ! 😊

Nous avons acheté 3 Kakigoris à la mangue. (45$). Ce que nous avons reçu ne ressemblait pas du tout à ce que nous avons payé. Cela ne ressemblait pas du tout à la photo, il y avait à peine un tiers de ce qui était montré sur la photo dans un petit bol en carton. Nous avons payé 15 $ le pot & clairement ça ne valait pas ça. Nous l'avons indiqué à la serveuse qui s'est excusée & nous a dit qu'elle en parlerait au responsable. Mais pas de remboursement.

As someone with Japanese heritage, eating this onigiri brought tears to my eyes. The taste was so familiar & comforting, reminding me of cherished memories & authentic flavors from my childhood. Yet at the same time, it had something special all its own.

The rice was perfectly prepared, the filling was delicious, & every bite reflected the care & quality that went into making it. Simple, authentic, & incredibly satisfying. This was one of the best onigiri experiences I've had outside of Japan.

What made the experience even more special was the thoughtful service. I mentioned that I was hoping for some hot green tea, & she kindly offered to warm up a bottled green tea for me. It turned out to be the perfect accompaniment to my meal & was exactly what I was looking for. That small gesture made me feel genuinely cared for & added to the warmth of the entire experience.

Absolutely delicious food, wonderful hospitality, & an experience I won't forget. I cannot wait to come back.
