Reviews of Onigiri Shop generally highlight fresh, generously filled onigiri at a good value, with large portions and a wide variety of fillings that many find delicious. The service is repeatedly praised as friendly and attentive, helping create a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a solid overall experience. A number of diners feel the staff are kind and helpful, and several comment that the ambiance is cozy and suitable for a casual bite. However, there are cautions about inconsistency in texture and flavor, with some onigiri being too rice heavy, fillings unevenly distributed, or seasoning off, and a few dishes missing balance or crunch. A few reviewers also raise operational issues, including hygiene concerns in kitchen areas and, in some cases, language or promotional miscommunications. Overall, Onigiri Shop is seen as an affordable, fresh option worth returning to for many, though quality and execution can vary and a handful of experiences fall short of expectations.
Bien mais ce serait apprécié que les employés ne soient pas collé à leur téléphone en cuisine… c'est censé être un environnement propre & désinfecté. Imaginez qu'ils peuvent être sur des toilettes en train de scroller sur tik tok & 2 sec après ils sont dans la cuisine à scroller sur ce même téléphone.
Je comprendrai jamais comment on peut tolérer d'avoir même son téléphone sur soi lorsqu'on travail en cuisine.
Le personnel est super accueillant & gentil !
Beaucoup de choix de garnitures pour les onigiri, c'etait délicieux je recommande
Seulement 30$ pour 4 onigiris & une sauce tips inclu
Worst experience. Just greedy for money. Maybe hire more staff & treat/pay them better so they can work better & faster instead of pressuring them. I came with my husband & it was horrible compared to other onigiri locations.
Trust me guys please do not go here !! Worst onigiri shop in montreal as one time I went there & the owner who is a body builder had some anger issues & was totally mistreating the employees. Due to his presence our onigiri had to pay a price. But the inner staff looked good.
The nicest front desk lady in the whole entire restaurant industry! Warmth, smile & politeness out of this world. Steals the spotlight right of the onigiri's. Highly recommend!
À la base, j'adore manger aux onigiri shop, mais le service reçu par Marie a été simplement exceptionnel. Elle & le monsieur avec qui elle travaillait hier, ont été vraiment aimables & serviables. Je recommande 100%

Les onigiris sont très délicieux & les ingrédients sont frais. Prix abordable, ambiance bonne, employés gentils. Enfin un très bon petit resto. Je recommande & très bon rapport qualité-prix :-)
Le prix est très bon ainsi que la généreuse portion. Ce que j'ai moins aimé est que je me suis fait servir en anglais mais c'est devenu la norme, malheureusement. Je préfère les onigiris du café Falco
Is a nice lunch spot for A quick bite, very affordable & tasty portions, very generous. The staff were polite but seemed easily flustered. Overall recommend 😊🍙
I took the salmon one & the miso beef one, to my sad surprise inside the salmon one there was only salmon with spiced mayo, it just simply misses flavors, the rice was smooth & the nori was crunchy (wich is just perfect), some green onions & some sesame inside would have been just the little kick it needed, same for the beef one,
the staff was really friendly & cool, really good service
