Review Summary

Onigiri Shop offers a polarizing experience where patrons frequently praise the fresh ingredients, generous portions, and overall atmosphere, noting that the food is both affordable and delicious. While many enjoy the variety of items like the mini ramen and various onigiri, recurring issues with service inconsistency, long wait times, and reported rudeness from staff during busy periods dampen the experience for some. Opinions on quality remain split, with some customers finding the food consistently excellent and others highlighting significant fluctuations in preparation, availability of menu items, and professionalism. Overall, the restaurant is viewed as a convenient and tasty spot for a quick bite, though the quality of customer service and operational reliability appear to be areas that require improvement.

Came around 2-3PM & they had run out of beef & chicken so this was very unfortunate.

Ended up getting one shrimp tempura mayo, & one spicy tuna (raw). Not the biggest fan of the shrimp tempura mayo. I enjoyed the spicy tuna more.

If you like simple, get the classic single ingredient ones. If you prefer complex, get the ones with more ingredients.

We had the 1.5 combo it was a nice amount of food for a little lunch for two people.

We had 3 onigiri: tuna mayo, tuna épicé & beef-tama. They were warm & very fresh! However, the classic ones were very simple & not that good. I buy better ones from the grocery store with more ingredients & flavor for the same price. The beef-tama one was very good. The egg yoke in it was delicious.

Overall I'm glad I tried it. The food was enjoyable, but I don't think I will come back. I will stick to getting onigiri at the grocery store.

Such good onigiri!!! Really generous portions & great price. You can get a to-go onigiri very quickly or wait just a bit & get a freshly made one. We had the tuna mayo, fried chicken mayo, korean chicken & salmon avocado & loved all of them!
