Review Summary

Onigiri Shop is widely recognized as a go-to spot in Verdun for affordable, delicious, and fresh onigiri, with many customers praising the generous portions and the authentic quality of the rice and fillings. While numerous reviewers highlight the friendly, fast, and professional service they have received, there is also a significant number of reports mentioning inconsistencies in food quality, such as issues with rice texture, bland flavors, or incorrect orders. A recurring theme in the feedback involves the atmosphere and service standards, where some visitors have expressed frustration over unprofessional behavior from staff, long wait times, or difficulties with takeout packaging. Despite these mixed experiences, the restaurant remains a popular choice for those seeking a quick and tasty snack, though many customers suggest that improvements in operational consistency and staff training would greatly enhance the overall experience.

April 2026:
I am so disappointed. Last summer, Onigiri Shop was my go-to when I wanted a quick bite. As of recent, the rice is less fresh, the portions are smaller & the fillings have been greatly reduced. In addition, yesterday, I placed my order online & picked it up. 2/5 onigiris had the wrong fillings (I ordered two raw tuna & received two cooked tuna onigiris). I don't think I'll be back here.

June 2025:
Onigiri shop offers a variety of flavors, all equally delicious! I especially enjoyed the eel & salmon onigiri, but all of them were great. The portions are generous & only range between 4.99-7.99$ each. I was completely full after two portions. It takes around 15-20 minutes for the food to be prepared, but it's worth it!
