    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!

    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.

    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!

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

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

    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.

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

    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.

    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)

    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.

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

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

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

    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.

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

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

    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.

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