Review Summary

Reviews of Onigiri Shop show a mix of praise and criticism. Many diners praise generous and flavorful onigiris with big portions, including eel, beef, spicy salmon, salmon and avocado, and chicken variations, and point to friendly staff and good value. Several comments complain that the rice can be old, dry, or overly salty, and that some onigiris fall apart or crumble, which undermines the dish when the rice is not at the right level. The vibe is described as a casual, rustic spot with a focus on fast service, often catering to takeout and Uber Eats, though the experience can vary by location. Ramen and miso soup are noted as solid accompaniments, and there are mentions of experimentation with flavors that some diners love. Service is generally friendly and efficient, with some reviewers highlighting particularly good service at certain locations, while others note variability. Allergies and cross contamination concerns are mentioned, as are gluten-free options; price is generally considered affordable for the quantity and quality. Overall Onigiri Shop is seen as a go-to spot for big, tasty onigiris and a casual meal, though some reviews mark it as not returning due to inconsistent rice or experience.

For the price, this place is amazing.
Employee professional but friendly, onigiri tasted really good, they are chubby too.
I recommend & will come back!

Le riz était vieux & sec, trop salé, mal assaisoné. Les onigiris tombaient en morceaux. Quand la base de ton plat vedette (le riz) n'est pas de niveau, il n'y a rien à faire. Même les garnitures (correctes sans plus) ne pouvaient pas compenser pour la déception.

Essayé la limonade : sans intérêt, mais j'apprécie qu'elle n'était pas trop sucrée.

Ambiance typique de restaurant qui cherche principalement à satisfaire le marché ubereats.

Service ok.

Je n'y retournerai pas.

I tried the beef & the spicy salmon. Both are really good, though the beef is much saltier than the salmon so that there's an imbalance when you have them both at once. Service was fast & efficient.

Great price, great taste, & great service. Some onigiris are brave attempts at reimagining flavors & absolutely loved it. The ramen & miso soup were great too. If you haven't tried yet, highly recommended.

When the stores open I loved this place & other stores that open. Always enjoyed their big yummy onigiri. Could advise thé saumon/ avocat or chicken karage.
My only complaint tho will be either the service depending from the store I guess u see people more motivated of working there or not…

La meilleure place pour manger des onigiris à Montréal.
Je n'ai rien d'autre à dire que c'est simplement délicieux, pas trop cher.
Attention, l'algue n'est pas croustillante mais ce'est pas dérangeant.
Je recommande fortement.

Food price is great especially for the great quality. Fish is delicious. The onigiris are not packed well & often spill out & crumble, much more than at other places. Service is slow but reasonable if it's not during peak hours. I recommend visiting it.

Compared to your average konbini onigiris, these guys a lot chunkier! I feel like I can eat 3 of these max. Priced at 5$ per before tax, I feel like it's a pretty good value given the amount of raw fish they stuff inside of them. If you're in the area & are craving a snack, forget about McDonald's - just come here!
