Trend: Restaurants Are the Best New Pop-Up Spaces | Eater

"A Dallas pop-up founded by Nathan Bounphisai during the pandemic that built success despite limited formal restaurant experience by partnering with local shops; it became notable for lines forming for its truffle-crab-stuffed onigiri, which drove traffic to host venues and eventually led to other restaurants proactively offering to host the pop-up." - Amy McCarthy

Delicious onigiri!! I had the tuna and it was great! The young man at the register was really nice and the food was prepared quickly.

It must have been an off day when I was there. My order of large karaage and 1 beef Onigiri took forever (35 mins). When I received my order the chicken was very inconsistent and not fully cooked. I came here because of social media, not sure if I’d come back.

my husband and I came to try this place. I really enjoyed the fried shrimp onigiri. I could taste the fried shrimp in every bite I had! We also really enjoy eating savory pork bao. It was soo delicious. It had an amazing flavor. We didn’t enjoy eating the musubi and crispy dumplings. It was very salty that we couldn’t eat it. Overall, I would highly recommend the savory pork bao and their onigiri!

I can’t stop going to GoGogiri when I’m in the area now. They never seem to have the all I, there rice cooker was broken the last time I went, but I will likely return just for the chicken katsu bcuz it is so. . . Crispy and delicious. I have tried their onigiri, chicken katsu, mandu/potsticker/whatever, Mac salad, n some purple bao (idk what it was-I stole it off of somebody’s plate :) ), all was good.

Update 02/02/24 I came to try out the new Katsu Chicken sandwich, and I'm here to say it was amazing! The chicken had a delicious flavor, a satisfying crunch, and the wonderful topics of pimento cheese and coleslaw brought the chicken sandwich together 😄. The wagyu onigiri was delicious as always as were the beef crispy dumplings. The pork bao was different sadly but it was still good. Still a delicious place to go if you haven't already! We have been planning to come and try to the place out and we were not disappointed! The staff are very friendly and are able to answer any question you may have. I had the President and the Katsu onigiri and tried the Tim's and Spam one as well. My favorites are both the Tim's and the President one. I had their chicken bao and the purple bao as well. Both were very nice, full of flavor and not dry. If you're on the fence on visiting this place, you need to come try for yourself. One suggestion I can offer is look to have a small water dispenser for guests. Other than that, this place rocks and I can't wait to comeback!

It was so good!! We ended up spending like $50 to try a lot of the food 😆 but it's very reasonably priced, we really had a great date night. This will be one of our favorites!! The whole vibe there is great and the people working tonight were super nice. Thank you so much for the amazing experience 🙏 Note: Please don't worry about the wait times as much, in our opinion it's worth the wait to eat this delicious food. You guys are all so sweet and considerate of our time but honestly we enjoy the vibe here 🫶 we're regulars and I hope the bulk of your customers who come and sit in feel the same! For those of you who can't just wait a moment and enjoy the atmosphere, just order online then! Its not worth being a Karen.

Huge onigiri! Got 3 to go for me and my friend to try. We got the wagyu beef, katsu, and the pork. We both agreed that we liked the katsu one the best. Nice crunch with the soft rice 😁. For the price of $6 and up, I thought the portion was generous. And I also loved that they make it fresh. We'll be back to try the other ones and their dumplings!

Amazing place!! You need to stop by and support this local business. Great food and great atmosphere. The president onigiri was my favorite the chicken and wagyu beef with a special sauce and onion straws for a crunch. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The onigiri was way more filling, messy but great food!

I enjoyed my visit to GoGogiri! The man running everything was very nice while also giving us our space. I recommend eating in store. It was a pleasure to eat everything just freshly prepared. No one rushed us at any point in our visit. My favorite was the wagyu onigiri. I found it to be very balanced and interesting. I would not eat off the floors here. Kitchen was open concept and looked clean, but some of the corners in the dining area and bathroom had some crumbs. Okay by me for this price point. 3 adults left stuffed for ~$40.

I love onigiri but there's really no place doing it like Gogogiri. This is different from traditional onigiri flavors but the Asian-inspired fillings fit well with the Texas location and Texas sized portions. While I did takeout, since each onigiri is made to order, it was a bit of wait, albeit a pleasant one with the cute retro decorations and calm atmosphere. This is a late review but when I went, parking was easy and the restaurant was not busy. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Since I wanted to try the different options, I opted for the smaller size for the single flavor onigiris (as seen in the bottom row), which was still filling and delicious. The rice is nice and sticky although the way it is made seems like the rice ball breaks apart a little too easy. The katsu is chopped into small pieces and mixed with a spicy mayo sauce so you get an even bite of crisp, meat, and sauce each time. The spam was good and salty, but it's hard to mess up spam. The two I was looking forward to the most were the larger onigiri (top row), which had a mix of two meats per onigiri: Wagyu and Pork, and wagyu and katsu. It took a little to understand the texture but overall, everything was super delicious. I'll have to come back again and try their other menu options besides the onigiri. I'd love if they are able to open more locations outside of DFW!

I've been seeing so many ads of GoGogiri on TikTok as well as from my mutuals, so I finally gave it a try. Food (4/5); The food-me and my brother thought the onigiris were great! We both think the prez is unique-it's great but we don't know how we feel about chicken and meat mixed together. I think next time we would just get a separate wagyu and a katsu. We can see why it's popular though! The meat was very flavorful and the katsu had that perfect crunch. The bbq chicken bao bun was mid, we could've passed on that. It wasn't crazy or anything, we expected more. My brother loved the fries-the fries was unique. Sweet and savory fries. The chicken sandwich was good, but I'm just not used to eating dark meat. It was alright, but the rice balls were the best! Service (5/5): The service was spectacular and spot on. Everyone was extremely nice and helofu The ambiance is cool. Very chill, relaxing, feels like you're at home, super cozy. Ambiance (5/5): Very homie and cozy with all the options of booths and couches as well as the multiple TV's around the store.

FOOD -Pork Onigiri -Tuna Onigiri -Wagyu Onigiri -Shrimp Tempura -Katsu Onigiri -Spam Onigiri -Ube Sweet Bao Bun Overall the onigiri has a lot of potential. There is a lot of rice overall and the onigiri is pretty big. The fillings are so yummy. I personally liked the katsu and the spam. Those were most flavorful. The wagyu was in bits (which I didn't expect) and a tad bit on the saltier side but still yum. Other than there being a little too much rice, overall yummy! The Ube Sweet Bao Bun is SOOOO GOOD. The inside oozes with flavor and it tastes like ube. Not too sweet and definitely recommend getting! If I did have a recommendation, I would say that it would be cool if the onigiris were smaller with a greater variety of flavors. Also the presentation is a little lacking but if there's like a little pizazz with sauce and some toppings, that would elevate it by a lot. VIBES There are some seating with booths and there are little dividers that offer some privacy. Pretty limited seating but great for grab and go. Not super duper decorated but clean and neat. SERVICE The people were really nice and patient. Food did take around 10-15 minutes to come out but that was fine. I had a chance to speak to the owners and they were also very pleasant to speak to. Very sweet!

Great tasting rice ball, (I believe it was the owner), but he recommended the president's and it was really good! It was my first time trying these things and it was good! Place was clean and had some tables with video games set up so that was cool. Great service as well so will def come back

Onigiri holds a dear place in my heart. The compact, convenient, and affordable meal was my source of energy both times I visited Tokyo. This place is great! I've gone twice since they opened and their food definitely hits the spot. Although it's not the same small convenience store onigiri you can get in the streets of Tokyo, for that reason two of these can fill you up quite a bit. The filling is pleasant and light and if you want even more flavor you can ask them to add sauces inside of the onigiri - I will definitely try this next time. On top of that, they also have bao buns. I ordered the chicken bao bun which is a great combination of sweet and savory. The service is very nice as well. My second time I got to speak with the owner who said this is their third location, with one in Lubbock and one in Abilene. The anime playing on one screen and music playing on the other sets a welcoming and chill ambiance that makes you want to keep coming back. Definitely give this place a try, there's something for everyone.

Gogogiri is a restaurant specializing in onigiri with non traditional fillings. I came here for the grand opening and there are currently 6 options for their onigiri. Each onigiri comes with a specific sauce that is part of the filling but this is fully customizable. They also have a couple other items on their menu including dumplings, baos, and spam musubi. I decided on the katsu, wagyu, tuna, and fried shrimp onigiri. The filling to rice ratio was good but flavor was a bit underwhelming for a few of the items. The rice was a bit bland and I wish there was more crisp nori for a contrast of flavor. Overall my favorite was the wagyu, which was more like bulgogi. I think I was a bit disappointed since I'm used to more classic fillings. Service was a bit slow for my order but it was understandable as it was their first day. Value of each onigiri was ok. Portions are big but prices are expectedly higher.

What an amazing place everyone was very nice. Food was excellent and interesting. The kids loved it !! I had to keep ordering more stuff. I love having your own personal TV in the booth. The kids try to play video games on the big screen in the entryway. Didn't get to try any of the platters or chicken sandwiches. Will do next time. Definitely try this place out.

I love onigiri so I was so excited when this opened! It's a cute store with about 6 tables for dine in. I got to go 3 onigiri, Chefs special, Presidents, and Shrimp Tempura, and a pork bao bun. The chefs special was delicious but the rice was not well compressed so it did fall apart pretty easily which defeated the portability of onigiri in my opinion. All very good though, I'll be back!

The food was amazing!! We found this spot from their instagram, and it looked delicious in the photos. It really was! We tried the scallion pancake, pork bao, bbq chicken bao, katsu chicken onigiri, and the pork onigiri. Our favorite was the pork bao and onigiri! So much flavor. We will definitely be back! The gentlemen running the register was definitely busy with to go orders and customers walking it, but he was still so courteous!

Wow! What a little gem in Dallas to have! I saw this place just the other day on Yelp, and added it to my list of places to try. GoGogiri does not disappoint! It is so good and will fill you up quickly! I didn't realize just how big everything would be. We ordered the spam, tempura shrimp, and waygu beef. The waygu beef is just heavenly! I could have just had this and been satisfied. The Bao bun we had was the bbq pork bun. Another satisfying hit! Dumplings were also fantastic. We will definitely be ordering again. And we're just so happy this little gem is right down the road!

Food was good, but they are still new and were out of a few things we wanted to order. I really liked the dumplings, the chicken bao was good (the purple one was not)9, and the highlight is definitely the onigiri. We liked all the ones we tried. Service was a little slower than I thought, especially since the baos were already sitting on the counter, and the girl at the counter clearly wanted to go home. I'm sure we'll be back.

If you are looking for a more traditional onigiri then sadly GoGoGiri isn't going to scratch the itch. It's a pretty good value at ~$7 for what amounts to a massive 2 inch think and maybe about 3-4 inches along the triangular sides, but sadly that large size leads to structural problems making them a mess to eat...which sort of misses one of the major pros of onigiri to begin with in my mind. They are well stuffed with plenty of filling so what seemed like a very high priced snack when I ordered ended up being a fair price for the amount of food provided. I got the pork and wagyu which is way more than one person should likely order for themselves in hindsight. I sort of missed the fact that both had sauces since instead of simple descriptive names like you might be used to from an asian convince store that just lists the ingredients (like salmon and mayo, pork floss, etc) they have cute names that don't emphasize the contents. Something to be aware of for picky eaters that are used to simpler versions of the snack and not expect that. The food itself was fine but didn't blow me away. I think the best flavors of onigiri for me is from simple marinated meats and furikake seasoning, which was notably absent. This version thats taken a lot of liberties didn't really resonate with me personally. Instead, this is more filing and sauce focused so if that is your thing then it might be worth checking out for yourself.

Been wanting to give this place a try since it's opened- I think they may still be working out the kinks but overall, the food ain't bad. Ordered some scallion pancakes, a bbq pork bun, and a spam onigiri to go. It took a hot minute for it to get thrown together (a little over 20 minutes) so lesson learned- order ahead next time. BBQ pork bun- the bun itself is nice and soft, pretty decent size. It is a little different compared to the photo shown on their site- photo shows chopped pork cubes and bbq sauce, actual is shredded pork. Not a massive difference, but that can change the flavor and texture of a meal. Not a bad bao overall. Spam onigiri- probably the best of the three things I ordered. Big portion, rice is cooked well and has flavor and consistency. The spam and sauce inside are tasty- nice and salty and tangy. Scallion pancake- not great. Don't know if its due to the thinness of these pancakes or if they didn't fry them long enough, but it didn't have the typical outside crunch and inner chewiness of a pancake. In addition, the flavor was bland. It comes with a dipping sauce, but it shouldn't require it. Overall, it was ok. I'll probably give it another shot later in the hopes their processes get smoothed out.

Everything was super good. Recommend getting a little extra sauce on the side cause the gogo sauce goes crazy. If there's one thing you gotta try it's the chicken bao. Will be back specifically for that.

Lackluster, cheaply built, no chopsticks despite it being finger food (i would still like to not get my hands dirty) , decor was very lacking. No soy sauce either. Food was alright, dumplings were the best part but this doesn't taste like waygu, it tastes like regular ground beef. I got shrimp and "waygu" onigiri and my man got regular waygu Onigiri. It was alright, flavorful but it tastes more like an Americanized version of real Onigiri, i was thinking it would've been more authentic but that's on me for expecting so much from a new establishment.

If you ever had an onigiri in Japan, this absolutely tops it. Its easy, the quality is great and the flavor is unmatched. I've taken maybe 15 people here over the years, and everyone has loved it and continues to still go.

Fantastic food, found this place a month ago and I've been back several times. Best dumplings I've ever had, stuffed with pork. All the Onigiri is actually a pretty big portion and stuffed. I eat a lot but get surprisingly full with 2, some of my friends get full with just one and some dumplings. The onion pancake is really flaky and crispy and one of my favs. The special onigiri's are really good but the regular pork one is my fav. The ambience is nice but the dining seats and tables are kinda crappy. Regardless, the food is fantastic so I don't care about the tables.

Came after seeing them on Instagram and I really liked it! The place is simple and the menu is easy to read and decipher. The portions are generous and the food was good. I got the Chef's special onigiri, the chicken bao, and the Ube bao. Def would get them all again. Especially the bao! Now, I'm not gonna say they'll blow your mind or anything, but it's good enough that I'd eat it again. Chicken katsu is actually soooo good! Perfect level of crisp! My friend that had the scallion pancake said it's nothing special but that it wasn't bad. It was $2.99 so she said for the price she'd get it again. Internal decor is minimal, clean, and organized. Their booth's have privacy screens which we really really liked. I recommend you check them out!

The food is really good! The 2nd time I've been in two days. Truth be told it would have been 2 times in one day if I would made it back in time. I love the tuna onigri my son wants to have the for his school. The services here is BEYOND AMAZING never have I ever have a business treat me like they have! The price and size of the food is unheard of now a days. Please come here it is a must to try you won't be sorry swear. Note: I would try the soup dumplings steamed instead of seared but all and all I want more of them Next time I will be trying the purple sweet dumpling I will let y'all know how those are stay posted

I was excited to finally try this place, but it sadly didn't live up to my expectations. I saw an ad they were running that said 'Free Katsu Sandwich - show ad to claim' and there's no other details on the ad, but when I went to claim it, the workers said you had to spend at least $15...which wasn't written anywhere on the ad. Kind of false advertising IMO. I ordered the ube bao and it doesn't look purple like their photos at all, more like a pale tan color. It tasted alright, but nothing really special. My friends got the onigiris which looked huge, but was mostly made of rice.

The bao and onigiri are great! The tuna onigiri is great and the CEO was incredible! Very savory and creamy. The BBQ chicken bao is dope. Even the fries are great lol. But, their dipping sauces are absolutely fantastic! Sriracha mayo is good, the kimchi mayo and, what I'm assuming is, gochugaru mayo are the absolute BEST. They compliment their fries and their onigiri soooo well. They are all made in house. Great place for a quick lunch or a simple date.

Madeline M.

Yelp
The food doesn't come out as advertised in the store. we order the tuna and the CEO the tuna is just tuna salad in rice, and the ceo when I asked him about why it doesn't look like the one they advertised he said "it's in the inside that's it" it's also 8 dollars for plain white rice and basic Walmart style tuna salad. Not going back and def not worth it.

cute place but I went in and ordered one pork bao (the fluffy bread bun) there were only two young workers, but I was the only customer in there the entire time I was there. They gave me an onigiri which is not what I ordered, i'm sure it's good but it's disappointing since the only thing I ordered somehow was completely wrong.

We tried several of the onigiris and all of the baos. You need to know the onigiris come in 2 sizes which we didn't realize. The pork bao is bigger than the chicken or the taro one but all of them were great! Fast service and very kind to explain the Japanese part of the menu to us. Great portions and the food was delicious! They have a few booths to eat there but it is mainly a place for take out, I think. We didn't try the chicken sandwiches but they looked really good as well if you are looking for a fried chicken sandwich.

My daughter enjoys the food here and treated me to a meal. I tried the Hawaiian plate with Kahlua pork, macaroni salad, and rice. The pork came on a small bed of cabbage. The rice had a drizzle of teriyaki (?) and the pork had a drizzle of some type of mayo based sauce. Really liked the macaroni salad, as it was slightly savory. Would order this again, but ask them to leave off the sweet sauces on the rice and pork which I think are typical of Japanese food. My daughter orders the onigiri and pork buns regularly. I tried a bite of the pork bun which was tasty but small for the price.

We tried a few things on the menu: chicken bao bun, shrimp tempura onigiri, katsu onigiri, purple sweet bao bun, and my bf tried the wagyu onigiri. They were all fire. I don't love the ambiance of this place as it was decorated pretty simply but they did have Naruto playing so that's a plus.

Had a fantastic experience on day 1. Their onigiri (rice balls) were so authentic in flavor to my time in Japan, but Texas sized with a much greater variety of fillings. They also had a clever and hip Japanese seating area with private booths enclosed in hand-made shogi screens. This place is such a brilliant idea to add to the US market. Just a matter of time before we see a national GoGogiri brand, and I love they started in TX! Better give them a try before the lines are out the door.

Went here after seeing them online. Unfortunately for the price the food is not worth it. The dumplings I had were also very heavily seasoned that made them extremely salty. The meat isn't flavorful and the food just falls completely apart. But for a plus Service and staff are very nice

Honestly there's too much mayo / sauce inside the rice ball. I got the spam and wagyu, definitely not something I would try again, unless I order it without the mayo. I did enjoy the Baos and the scallion pancake is great for the price ($2.99)

I found this place through an add on TikTok and I was super excited to try it! I love all of the food choices they had to offer and it's a pretty unique selection here in Dallas. We ordered one of their sandwich meals, a tuna onigiri, and 3 different flavors of the bao buns. We asked for the coleslaw not to be on the sandwich, and the katsu sandwich still came packed with it. So we had to go up and ask for a fix, also it didn't come with any pickles we had ordered. After that I noticed my bao buns were wrong, they weren't the flavors I had ordered. I felt bad about going up again so I unfortunately didn't get to enjoy the flavors I ordered. They were two of the bbq flavors and a chicken. They didn't have a lot of filling, it was mostly just dough. Also the onigiri was delicious but tasted exactly how I make it at home, there was nothing that made it stand out to me. They were also out of a lot of specific drinks even though we had gone in the morning. My expectations were super high and I was incredibly excited, but everything we were served was wrong besides the onigiri which was okay. Won't be back. ):

I wish the food came out looking like what they advertised on Instagram. Instead you just get some bland looking rice onigiri. Their baos came out soggy and I really hate that they have canned/bottle drinks. Nothing too special.

10/10 in my opinion. For some back story, I'm a Dallas native that went to Texas Tech University in Lubbock. Gogogiri originated (I could be mistaken but I don't think I am) in Lubbock. On Friday nights there would be food trucks and gogogiri was always one of them BUT the line was always SO LONG (like 30 people) that I would always just say next time. Fast forward, I move from Lubbock back to Dallas unexpectedly not getting the chance to try it. WHEN I TELL YOU THE PURE EXCITEMENT I had when I found out they were opening a store literally 3 minutes from my place I lost it. So let's get to the actual reviews. The atmosphere is cute, quiet and I like how they have their booths. They have fairy lights with some neon signs that add a nice touch. Also they play anime in the background but you can't really hear it. With that being said though there is only like 5 tables in the restaurant. Service was very hospitable. Very friendly staff. At the end of my meal I went to go grab to go boxes from the ordering counter and I got into a conversation with I think was the manager. He was extremely kind and asked me what I thought. We talked for a while and I told him about what I wrote in the first paragraph. He was happy that I came in and gave them a shot. Lastly, on to the food. I'm a huge fan of onigiri and boy when I tell you they had quite a selection to choose from. My boyfriend and I got four with a bbq pork steamed bun. The steamed bun was soft, pillowy, and overall comforting. The filling was on the sweeter side and had a nice ratio of filling to bun. The four onigiris we got were the katsu, wagu, spam, and pork. Our personal favorite was the katsu. The chicken was extremely crispy cause it was made fresh. Everything is made to order so it does take some time to get the food. Maybe like 15-20 minutes but it's because they are all made fresh. The filling to rice ratio is also fantastic. They don't jip you on filling at all. The other flavors were really good but that katsu is to die for. Spam was a little on the saltier side but it is spam so it's to be expected. They also have dipping sauces which I recommend. I loved to the Nashville hot and gogo sauce. Both are creamy but honestly dreamy as well. Drink wise though, there isn't that many options. If your okay with sprite, coke, water and I think they had some energy drinks than that's good but I'd would've liked a diet option, personally Diet Coke. Overall, like I said 10/10. Please go. I want them to succeed so badly. It's a family owned business and they are great at what they do. I will definitely be going back. Sorry if there are some typos and spelling issues

The food here was so delicious! It was my first time eating musubi and I was excited before and after my first bite. We also had the tuna onigiri and some dumpling and I was so glad I came here! I'm from out of state but my family lives in town and recommended this restaurant. The restaurant has a very relaxing and entertaining feel -- there are games you can play while you wait for your food or you could watch some tv/anime. The service was also fantastic. We were greeted with kindness and were helped out when we couldn't decide what to get. I'm definitely coming back. Great restaurant.

The Musubis are not good. Rice is mushy. The filling is filled with mayo. These are just not good at all. The only good thing is the size. They are much bigger than other ones I've had. I will not be back sorry. I hope they fix the rice. That would really make a huge difference.

Genuinely the best asian cuisine I've ever had I went sunday 05/19/2024 to try it before an event I was planning. I tried it the customer service was amazing they were kind and very understanding. I will be coming back with my friends when I'm near by and for the event. The ambiance is a chill and suttle vibe I loved it and the self controlled Tv's are amazing too.

The food was incredible! Tried the katsu and wagyu onigiri and both were great. Their fried dumplings were delicious and their pork bao bun was huge and so fluffy. The service was super kind and friendly, everything came out clearly labeled and quite quickly.
