Me & my friend came here a couple of times already & 3/5 visits, we kept finding hair in our onigiri. They were nice enough to offer a refund or replace our food though. But three times out of five that I've visited, there must be something wrong here. Food is great when the rice isn't mostly mushy. I found the Monkland branch to serve better rice.
I was surprised to find out that they don't sell the plushies like the monkland branch. This place could use a lot more cozy decorations & lighting too. I also noticed that they give free food to certain customers. They used to have a weekly challenge for free drinks but I don't know how to get the free food. It's mostly the bearded guy that talks & gives free stuff to people. Seems to be a nice guy.

Leur nouvelle déco est une réussite totale ! Le restaurant s'intègre maintenant parfaitement dans l'ambiance tendance & unique de Saint-Henri. L'atmosphère est bien plus agréable, une vraie touche finale qui rend l'expérience tout simplement parfaite. Bravo pour cette transformation !

I tried the original spot of onigiri shop, & this one doesn't taste the same at all. what happened? It really didn't taste as good as the original spot. Rice was so mushy & bland. I wouldn't recommend. Try the OG spot. Difference is day & night. Disappointed.
