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.

Délicieux & toujours rapide, avec beaucoup d'options végétariennes! Je recommande le onigiri au tofu inari & celui au kimchi & à l'avocat.

Rice was overcooked & underseasoned, filling was dry & over salted. The nori was too small for the amount of filling, soggy, & the whole thing fell apart in the container. I went to another onigiri shop last year that was quite good, so not sure what happened here...
