I like getting 3 onigiris -- the shrimp tempura , chicken teriyaki and the carrot and seaweed . Good food, relatively cheap . They have a lemonade tea that's super tasty, too!

Gregor G

Filling, healthy and delicious! Very excited to see them expand from food cart to viable Financial District lunch spot . I'm hooked on these handheld sushi wraps . Eggplant is my fave.

Bobak Esfandiari

Love this spot for a quick tasty bite to eat. The Ume, Kani, and Unagi are all particularly good choices, though all of them are worth trying at least twice!

Dustin

Spicy bacon is spicy . Don’t let the line scare you off; your order is ready 60 seconds after you pay.

Antonis Kalipetis

Make sure to take the Onigilly combo and taste different things. Fast service and good quality, definitely a nice place for a quick lunch .

Carissa C

They were all good. Spicy bacon definitely had a kick. Really liked the unagi . Filling and light at the same time. Though I did go into a rice coma after eating.

Annie 🌺 Jalota

Lots of options for vegetarians , too! Half their menu had veg onigiri choices :) Fairly inexpensive and tasty when you don’t want something too heavy.

Kim De Guzman

One of my favorite lunch spots ! Cute triangular rice sandwiches with yummy fillings always hits the spot. Also, very friendly and polite service :)

Terry Sok

Eggplant is my favorite onigiri and pork belly is the best rice bowl topping. Try their house green tea lemonade , its to die for (i do not say such things lightly)

Shirley Lau

Good quality onigiri and just the right portion for lunch . Would come back again!

Isabelle Ambler

Pressed brown rice and a savory filling wrapped up in seaweed . Pronounced oh-knee-ghee-lee. Another diner (advised by his co-workers at a Japanese TV station ) swore by the mentaiko.

Kian Lavi

Do yourself a favor, get three, make sure one is Ume (sour pickled plum ), and douse that ish in Togarashi

Ben Russo

The Edamame Set is the perfect lunch at a great price. The shiitake eggplant and tuna are my favorites.

Adrianna Lewis

The Tempura Shrimp Onigilly is great if you get it before it sells out!

Cindy Cheung

Tarako was my fav! Tastes like salted duck egg . Fishy and strong like they said. Spicy bacon was pretty spicy and I can handle it spice. Shiitake was nothing out of the ordinary.

Kia Lam

Love that their menu is so informative! Those of us who are gluten free definitely appreciate this!

Kendal Cockrel

Edamame set is great for lunch . Not too heavy and not too light. Try the spicy bacon !

Justin Ordoveza

Unique onigiri menu. Only street parking and no tables.

Santiago Duarte

A cool place to eat japanese Onigiri . You can take out or make them yourself. Nice quick bite .

Foxxy B

Not in love with either the unagi or teriyaki chicken . Miso soup is OK. A little disappointed that they do not have any raw fish : all cooked. Decent spot for a quick bite ; not a standout for the area.

Casey Callendrello

In the evening, they have a completely different menu. My favorites are the unagi and eggplant "tacos"! So good!

Brian Strauss

Good for a quick small snack in addition to lunch .

Jussi Häyhä

One of the best lunch spots in financial district.

Kathleen N.

Seasonal strawberry red bean mochi is so worth getting. Must try!!

Bonus H.

I wanted it to be better than it was. Spicy bacon was a let down. Edamame set let's u try different items. I will try it again but did not blow me away first time.

Mohnish Thallavajhula

Try the rice bowl with spicy shrimp , chicken teriyaki and unagi .

Caryl Shaw

I am all about the rice bowl . Make sure you check out the seasonal toppings too.

Moacyr Passador

Food and service is amazing! Soboro and Spicy Bacon are soo good!

Delicious and convenient. Great rice balls . Love it.

H K

Try the bowl with shitake mushrooms , tuna

Jini

Don't think twice -- Spicy bacon , extra pickled daikon .

Heyun

Spicy bacon was good, but a bit too salty. Wakame salad just okay, but will come back to try other options!
