La boutique Onigiri propose une approche raffinée de la cuisine japonaise, se spécialisant dans les onigiri savamment préparés, ces boules de riz traditionnelles qui sont une pierre angulaire de la cuisine réconfortante japonaise. Au-delà de cette spécialité, le menu s'élargit pour présenter une sélection variée de plats japonais authentiques, s'inspirant des riches traditions culinaires de l'Asie. Les convives peuvent s'attendre à un assortiment réfléchi de rouleaux de sushi, de boîtes bento savoureuses et d'autres classiques japonais préparés avec des ingrédients frais et de haute qualité. La boutique offre une atmosphère accueillante pour ceux qui recherchent une cuisine japonaise délicieuse et accessible. C'est une destination pour découvrir les saveurs nuancées et les textures satisfaisantes qui définissent la cuisine japonaise dans un cadre contemporain.
Onigiri Shop est largement perçu comme un comptoir chaleureux et abordable, apprécié pour ses portions généreuses et variées d'onigiris, incluant des options populaires comme le saumon, le thon ou des garnitures d'inspiration coréenne. Une grande partie de la clientèle salue la convivialité du personnel, l'ambiance originale et l'efficacité du service, le considérant comme une référence incontournable à Montréal pour ce type de repas. Bien que les avis soient majoritairement positifs quant au rapport qualité-prix et aux saveurs proposées, certains commentaires soulignent des expériences contrastées concernant la constance de la qualité, la fraîcheur des ingrédients, la propreté des lieux et la connaissance des restrictions alimentaires, ce qui donne lieu à des avis partagés parmi la clientèle.
Major food safety concerns here. The raw tuna & salmon were served warm - that's dangerous. The onigiri rice was also warm when it should be cool... One kind female worker was juggling serving, taking orders, & washing dishes all at once. The male worker spent the entire time chatting with someone & couldn't even tell us where the garbage bin was. 5 stars reviews were given by people that never tasted good food. Between the subpar food quality & questionable sanitation practices, I can't recommend this place.
Best Onigiri in Montreal, without a doubt. Affordable & delicious every time Nice small shop that offers a quality Onigiri experience with enough menu variety to please everyone.
The usual sushi fish type options seemed popular & they have a delicious Korean Friend Chicken & Miso Beef Onigiri Onigiri as well.

First, amazing quality rice. I've been experimenting with Toyama & Hokkaido, but this shop's rice mouthfeel is great! Higher quality than some shops in Japan. The filling is plentiful, & their combos are great. Miso beef was slightly salty, hearty, & had a lot of rice & beef. The egg yolk beef was also a wonderful combination. The salmon was hearty & bountiful. The seaweed is also not soggy. I would come again. Though they may not be all jp, they did a good job working on their recipes. Better than some smaller jp shops I've been :)
Reasonably affordable prices, so quick & delicious! Onigiris was so warm & fresh keep up the quality & portion everything is perfect! Im not a huge fan of the yolks its a bit too salty or gooey for me
I had such a lovely experience at Onigiri Shop! We popped in around 1 PM on a Thursday, & it was pretty busy, but we managed to find a cozy spot at the bar for the four of us (two kids & two adults). It was perfect because the kids were completely captivated watching the staff make the onigiris! Everything we tried was absolutely delicious, & I was so impressed with the prices - they're even cheaper than what you'd pay at the grocery store! The size & quality were top-notch. No wonder so many people were coming in for takeout! We ended up dining in but couldn't resist grabbing some to go because they were just that good. I can't recommend this place enough!
Lengthy review alert First, I started going to Onigiri shop pretty early on, I would say from January 14 as I saw it opened & was interested in trying it. I first went with friends & we each ordered a bunch of different onigiris to try as many flavors. We were blown away by how good it is (yes it is just rice & filling & seaweed technically) & had to get extra to share with other friends. But simple things are even harder to be delicious! The place is a little small, it cannot accommodate that many people, maybe 15-18 people to sit inside. They do share the space with the sushi store. I have since been almost weekly as it was always delicious & fresh. I guess this is a sign to just say that I have went there pretty often. Amongst all the times I have went I do need to precise that I have never gotten food poisoning, & neither have my friends & family. Contrary to that, they were also smitten by the onigiris. During the period where they weren't as busy, the owner had offered us tonjiru soup, as I kept asking every week but never had it, ultimately he did decide to remove it. (It was delicious) He was always super nice & welcoming, offering hot water (Very nice in cold weather) I will be adding pictures of all the onigiris I had eaten, some are discontinued. I have basically eaten all the old menu except the one with fried chicken (includes Kpop) Every onigiri is big & they do not skimp on the filling. I tend to go for at least 1 classic & 1 "fancy" one. 2 is enough for me & 3 honestly is overkill but I do enjoy having multiple flavors. I have experienced both pre & ante virality & I can say for sure the quality remained the same. I did go less after it went viral as it is always packed, but they have a system & they hired more workers! I truly believe they deserve the hype & I am very happy that their business is going so well. All in all, very delicious. Would always go. I recommend the Salmon Luxe & eel! (But honestly everything is good)
One word, delicious... It was worth waiting in line for 5-10 minutes. Inside, there are a few seats available but it's very small. We ordered a bit of everything to try including the unagi, soy egg yolk, spicy raw tuna, Korean fried chicken & the salmon luxe. To be honest, the simpler the tastier! So the spicy tuna & soy egg yolk were my favorite. The salmon luxe had both tuna & salmon in it, but I couldn't taste the difference, so what's the point of getting it. Also, very good quality price. You get a huge onigiri for about 4$ if you go with the classics but it can go to 8$.
