I come here very often! I mostly only get the fresh salmon oni because thats my fav. Ive tried others though & they are also yum. Sometimes depending on who is constructing the onigiris some will have way too much rice & not enough filling which to me is a very bad sign because we all know we are here for the filling not the rice. Not to say that their rice isint delicious, its fresh & warm always. So are their ingredients, it doenst feel like the supermarket onis that are days old. I think concidering the size (massive) the price for an oni is quite good, but i would not pay more to be honest. I havnt had their drink but I have tried one once my friend got one & it was NOT the tea... too sweet not great matcha quality, so ever since I havnt gotten a drink. Maybe I'll make myself try one one day. Last thing, could be totally off, but the one time I got their cooked tuna oni it tasted very much like canned tuna, which i hope it was NOT

Super bon! j'ai pris le onigiri crevettes tempura & les Edamame. Super satisfaite, la qualité des ingrédients est génial & le prix est très bien!
La seule chose, j'ai trouvé le riz très salé. J'y retournerai tout de même. Merci

Great flavor & price! It's a very small place, so its often crowded, perfect to order takeout though.

I love the fresh salmon onigri. I also tried the pork & the egg one for my little one, they are a hit with a picky eater :) but the parking for this location is not easy

lovely place. So much worth it, but today i got salmon & it wasnt fresh, it smelled bad & I tossed it. I know usually the food quality is top, but careful with the salmon & to a taste test. Im at home with my stomach burning & it sucks.
