Rice & Nori

Great place for a quick bite to eat in or for take out. Their onigiris are FRESH! Parking/Environment: There’s a dedicated parking lot. On a Sunday early afternoon, it didn’t seem too packed but we just parked in the 10 minute spots since we only ordered take out. There were high and low seating indoors and some outdoor patio seats. Food: Aside from their onigiris and hand rolls, they also sold Japanese snacks and drinks. We ordered Spam & Egg Musubi ($4.25), Salmon Yuzu Miso ($4), Spicy Lobster Shrimp ($5.50), and Spicy Tuna Mayo ($4). They were sooo good and hit the spot! Wish I ordered more.

I want to start by saying I really love their hand rolls. Their service is almost atrocious though. The people working at the cashier who take your order have actually been nice but the ones filling and calling out the order have been so consistently rude. Aside from being stingy with giving out soy sauce, for the 3rd time I’ve had to ask for utensils on a to go order. When I had to go back into the store after realizing they hadn’t given me utensils even though they asked and I said yes the guy at the station stopped stared at me and said it should be in the bag…guess what it wasn’t - he almost looked at my like I was lying. Would love to come back because I love the food but too many negative interactions.

Pretty nice spot here! We enjoyed the salmon handrolls, and salmon nigiri. There is a parking lot, and some street parking. Cool interior with plenty of seating. There is also about 4 outdoor tables. Kid and dog friendly outside. Salmon was tasty, and everything was fresh. We also got the eggplant ohnigiri. That was solid, but mostly rice… staff was nice, and it was a fun spot for a quick bite! The menu was a bit confusing; the combo seemed higher pricing than the items individually.

One of the best onigiri restaurants of all time. Highly recommend the yuzu salmon. Tastes incredibly fresh

I def recommend getting the 3 Handroll set for a filling lunch, very worth it as you get 3 handrolls (1 premium), your choice of sashimi, and edamame. I got the Spicy Eggplant Onigiri, Negi Toro Handroll, and Blue Crab Handroll. My favorites were the handrolls. I thought there was too much rice for the onigiri and it wasn’t spicy at all. The handrolls were pretty big and enjoyable. The restaurant is bright and clean.

Delicious Onigiri Just so fantastic, totally worth it

Amazing Onigiri and handrolls! We had the handroll set of three with bay scallop, Uni cheese (don’t miss this one!) and spicy salmon. All excellent. We also ordered onigiri- bacon and avo, salmon and tuna.. salmon was our least favorite. Also seaweed salad is perfection and please don’t skip the lychee lemonade!

The onigiri ratio was way off—too much rice and not enough of the filling. The musubi fell apart for everyone that ordered one in my group because they had been made waaaay in advanced—the nori was super greasy and obliterated. The miso soup was meh. The hand rolls were ok at best but again had way too much rice and not enough filling. $90 and we walked away hungry. Definitely not going back.

Look out La Cañada, Little Tokyo's esteemed Rice & Nori has landed. Although the quick expansion has led to a reduction in quality in the other locations, this location was perfect. Staff were friendly and there is plenty of outdoor seating. Would return.

Rice & Nori is a casual, quick, hand roll place. I love it because it's affordable, casual, or a great place to take out. I got the 3 hand roll set which came with 3 hand rolls of choice, edamame, and nigiri or choice. The fish was fresh and it's great food for value. While I've had better tasting places, Rice & Nori is definitely worth the price. There is a large parking lot and street parking. There is also indoor and outdoor seating available.

Rice&Nori is a place where you order first then get seated. Ordered the 3 rolls with edamame and sashimi. Honestly this meal made me full! It's definitely a place for a quick grab and go. They have indoor seating and outdoor. Parking here wasn't too bad.

I come here cause its super convenient and more of a fast food sushi spot. It also fills me up when im hungry. I got the 5 meal set and i like how it comex with edamame, sashimi, and handrolls. The sashimi comes with a truffle dipping sauce and roe. For the sushi i always get salmon with no sesame seeds for the regular and depending on my mood, either toro or all salmon again. I get the salmon sashimi too and it gets me stuff with all the food. For the drinks my favorite one is the lychee lemonade but there are times where it could be too sour. Lines go by really fast and you sometimes have to ask for utensils and a water cup if they dont give it to you. Theres a container of vold water that have to pour yourself. It is also self clean up if you dine indoors as well. I dont think ive seen people leaving their trash for the workers to pick up. They also dont wipe down the tables if its dirty. I used handsantizer to wipe it down myself. Not sure if you had to reach out to someone to do it or not.

Prob my favorite place around. Anytime my daughter and I want to have a little date together this is my go to. Anytime I'm in South Pas it's my go to. I can't get enough, it's really that delicious! I highly recommend the salmon hand roll, spicy tuna hand roll, the beef suyaki rice ball, and the salmon sashimi. Get some spicy mayo on the side to dip it in! My daughter loves the chicken teriyaki rice ball, sashimi, and spicy tuna hand roll as well. We do not like the salmon rice ball, kind of reminds me of like a canned tuna (which is something I don't care for, if you're a fan of that style of tuna it could be a win for you). The horchata matcha is good too. I do think they could clean a little bit more under the dining counters against the window. (Specifically the floor area it gets dusty.) I've tried to find other places like it in the area, as we live further from it, and have come up short. Not many do the roll style hand rolls, I've only found triangular shaped hand rolls, and these are better!! I wouldn't say it cheap, it can add up, but it's great to have sushi without having to do all longer sit down at a restaurant where you're served. I like the quick service model of this restaurant where you order at a counter( get your food quickly and then sit at a table to eat and leave. It is probably already at the max price I would spend here though. Overall we really love it and highly recommend it. It's our favorite place around!! Absolutely delicious!

I love this place!! I'm so happy I discovered it. Fast, casual eats. Spicy tuna hand roll is so tasty and all of their onigiri is fire. They also have great prices.

Hand rolls and sashimi that feel way more fresh and flavorful than you'd expect from such a casual spot. Rice & Nori nails that sweet spot of being fast but still high quality. Portions are generous and everything is put together neatly (no falling apart mid-bite). A few things worth noting: - They're quick, convenient for when you're on a schedule. - Their onigiris are filling. - They have hand roll sets; great way to sample different flavors. The space is small, but if you absolutely want to dine in, I recommend snagging one of the patio tables. It's in the shade and you can watch the hustle and bustle of Mission St.

The rice onigiri here is delicious. I personally enjoy the crab and shrimp and their lychee Lemonade. The workers here are nice. It's a chill spot to be at with outdoor seating.

Made fresh and warm, the onigiri are delicious. We ordered the baked lobster and shrimp, beef sukiyaki, spicy shrimp and spam and egg. Everything was light and not overly heavy, great for a snack lunch. Staff is friendly and fast. There is limited parking but spots turn around quickly.

I can't count the amount of times I have ordered from here via Uber Eats and not once ate at the actual restaurant until now. I absolutely love this place. This is my go to for handrolls/ onigiri. Came here with a co- worker to celebrate a new job position during our lunch time. We ordered: - Blue Crab Hand Roll X3 - Spicy Tuna Hand Roll X2 I also want to mention that I have ordered from here many of times: - Blue Crab Hand Roll - Baked Snow Hand Roll - Spicy Tuna Hand Roll - Bay Scallop Hand Roll - California Onigiri - Tuna Mayo Oinigiri - Salmon Yuzo Miso Onigiri - Yellowtail Sashimi Everything that I have ordered from here has been nothing but great, and fresh. I haven't had any disappointments. I will say though, the rice ratio in the onigiri could be a little less. But, that's just me.

Came here for lunch. They have hand rolls and musubis. Me and my friend ordered a total of 4. The rice was fresh, seaweed was crispy and the filling was decent. It's pretty expensive for what it is but the place was packed on a Saturday lunch time. Parking is shared with chipotle and another restaurant.

I ordered a beef rice ball, Spicy Lobster Shrimp Rice ball, yellowtail hand roll, and pineapple iced tea The Yellowtail Handroll was very good, good rice to yellowtail ratio. The yellowtail tasted very fresh, the size of the handroll is small. I would recommend to order this. The Spicy Lobster Shrimp was good overall. The spicy Mayo in here is not spicy at all, but still tastes good. I wish there was more meat, but I guess for the price it isn't too bad. Overall I would recommend to order it if you like the taste of spicy mayo. The Beef Rice Ball was very good and a much better meat to rice ratio than the Lobster Rice Ball. I would recommend to order this. The pineapple Ice tea was not overly sweet and tasted refreshing. I would recommend to order this. Overall I would definitely recommend this place if you are in the area. I wouldn't drive far for it but everything I had tasted great. It came out fast even during lunch rush hour (when I came) and the staff is friendly. The ambience is very casual and moderate volume.

Staff here are super friendly and offering best deals for your buck! A good place to also share and try different things. If you're guessing what to get here, everything is yummy but you will not be disappointed if you just order hand rolls! The TORO is bomb!! Will be back here for it asap !

Was in the south pas area running errands and decided to swing by here for a quick lunch. I've had rice & nori before but the downtown location in Little Tokyo. I ordered the salmon yuzu and spicy tuna onigiri and both were just okay. The rice to fish ratio was way off in my opinion. I'd say it was like 80% rice and 20% fish. It was also overly salty. Service and staff was really good tho and this restaurant is much nicer and bigger than the other location. But the quality is better at Little Tokyo and they put more fish in their onigiris.

Although I have everything to make this at home, I have been to check Rice and Nori out. The server at the corner was quick and efficient. The spicy miso eggplant rice ball was flavorful! It was just enough for a snack. The other vegetarian choices were the mushroom kombucha, umeboshi plum or plain rice. I'll be back!

My husband and I stopped here on our way back from Oxnard, as we were headed back to the IE. Sushi always hits for me when I've been eating bad so i was trying to find a decent place to stop when i stumbled on this page on Yelp. I'm a huge hand roll fan and thought the onigiri would be filling. I will say my husband and I shared this and i def could have doubled it and been happily stuffed! So just a FYI. We got the 2 Onigiri and a combo set of 5 hand rolls i believe. It comes with 1 sashimi and edamame. Of the top of my head i believe we got the salmon yuzu miso and a tuna mayo spicy oni. The salmon yuzu miso was BOMB. Super good. Would get 2 of those. For handrolls i believe we got the baked lobster and baked snow crab from premium; spicy tuna, salmon and yellow trail from the reg handrolls. They were all super good. I love spicy tuna so i loved that one the most. But that's just me being bias. The service was really quick, they were pretty busy so they aren't really on you about stuff. More of a chipotle style vibe? If that makes sense. We did get good recommendations from the cashier so that's a plus :) Lots of seating for a small joint, but good overall! I would 100% come again but def get more foood for my big back self

Great place for a quick bite to eat in or for take out. Their onigiris are FRESH! Parking/Environment: There's a dedicated parking lot. On a Sunday early afternoon, it didn't seem too packed but we just parked in the 10 minute spots since we only ordered take out. There were high and low seating indoors and some outdoor patio seats. Food: Aside from their onigiris and hand rolls, they also sold Japanese snacks and drinks. We ordered Spam & Egg Musubi ($4.25), Salmon Yuzu Miso ($4), Spicy Lobster Shrimp ($5.50), and Spicy Tuna Mayo ($4). They were sooo good and hit the spot! Wish I ordered more.

Now this is a delightful little Japanese spot that can't be passed up if you happen to be cruising the area. They offer a nice diverse menu with a focus on fresh hand rolls. I was definitely game for all the items on their menu but they highly recommended getting their five piece hand roll set. I got the Blue Crab, Smoked Salmon, Spicy Tuna, Snow Crab and Lobster Shrimp. I can say these were really tasty and the price was way cheaper than going to a restaurant. I also tried the Salmon sashimi which was pretty good for the price too. The service was decent and they have shared parking so it tends to get hectic. One last thing, they offer Sake and Cocktails so that's an added plus for some of us! LoL! And that's my take on this tasty experience, Peace...

Pretty casual place! I liked the fish, my favorite were yellowtail scallion and blue crab. Their blue crab was heavier in mayo which I didn't mind. The salmon was also good, between the yuzu salmon, sukiyaki and spicy lobster shrimp - my fav was probably sukiyaki and lobster. I would skip the salmon next time.. rice is well seasoned. Each sashimi you get a different sauce, I had yuzu for my yellowtail and garlic soy for the albacore. You order, pay then find a seat, then and get your food all at once. I think because of this, the nori gets soggy. I wish they had a more sit down service because the food is great, or a way to not get them at once. Not bad, would recommend if you're in the area!

There was a long line on a Saturday afternoon, but 10-15 minutes max wait. This is also the second location from the Little Tokyo store. Presentation and food is great!

I've had Rice & Nori bookmarked for long time and was finally able to stop by. We came in on a weekend and it did not disappoint. The restaurant was pretty packed the entire time with people flowing in and out. The restaurant has some small plants and succulents for sale. Plus they sell chips, candy and drinks too. The menu is pretty vast full of options for their Onigiris. Handroll sets of 3 and 5 were also options. We decided on trying the handrolls and a few Onigiris. 5 handroll set includes 2 premium HR, edamame, and sashimi for $28. Solid deal and great for sharing. On top of that we ordered the Salmon Yuzu miso and Spicy Lobster Shrimp Onigiris per the staff recommendation. A freshly made Onigiri is so delicious! They looked so appetizing like straight out of an anime. Both of them were good choices! Filled with proteins and good on each bite. The handrolls as well, all of them were good! So much food for about $40+ for 2ppl is a good for lunch. Overall, nice staff and clean restaurant. We'd come back again in the future. The rice balls are worth a return visit.

I loveee rice & nori ! Great price point, fast service, and actually a decent size portion. My go-to is the tuna onigiri and spam egg rice. I also like how casual the vibe is!

This is our go to place for onigiri or what I call "triangle sushi." It's simple, fast service and delicious. My go to is always tuna mayo. But whatever you're craving, it'll be great! Enjoy eating there or "to go" is great, too. Parking is easy.

My favorite onigiri spot! Parking can be difficult since their parking lot is pretty small Service was very friendly and welcoming Inside, is pretty small with limited seating. Pricing is so affordable and reasonable $4-6 There is a good variety of onigiris and hand rolls. Got the tuna mayonnaise ($4) and it was so delicious. Tuna was very fresh and not too salty. Lots of tuna and the onigiris was very big! This was 4/5 The Spicy Lobster Shrimp ($5.50) was very good. Very generous portions of shrimp in every bite! This was 4/5 The Beef Sukiyaki ($4.50) was very yummy. The beef was very tender and flavorful! This was 4/5 The Salon Yuzu Miso ($4.00) was ok, not as good as I expected. The salmon was a little dry and wasn't too fresh. This was 3/5 California Onigiri was pretty good, lots of imitation crab and little pieces of avocado. It was 3/5 The Salmon Handroll ($5.25) was yummy, pretty big chunks of salmon and it was very fresh. Would recommend and return

Was in the area & picked the closest thing near me and so glad I stopped by. Food was Absolutely delicious! The lychee lemonade is a MUST try! I should've ordered two to take on the road. Will definitely be back soon! A must try!

I know there's one in Little Tokyo, but I haven't stopped by. I was in the area for an event and decided to stop by for a quick bite to eat beforehand. There's seating inside and there's some seating outside as well as a small lot in front as well. I got there before the real dinner rush, so there was only a couple people ahead of me in line. Service was quick and efficient for a single to go onigiri. I got their mentaiko avocado onigiri and it came out freshly made and warm. There was a spot of mentaiko on top, a small glop of soft, fresh avocado and some mentaiko on the inside. Wish the nori seaweed was just a tad less soggy, but everything else was perfect. Not too salty and was the perfect snack. Don't mind trying their hand rolls and more of their onigiri in the future.

The spicy tuna hand roll was great and I really enjoyed the spicy lobster and shrimp onigiri. I wasn't the biggest fan of the teriyaki onigiri but that probably just wasn't the best choice. It was a chill environment around 11am

What a cute shop in South Pas! Simple menu with some great rice ball and roll options, for a reasonable price. They sell a lot of Japanese snacks in store too. I tried both the tuna mayo onigiri and the California roll one. Of the 2, the tuna mayo was my presence. Lots of good flavors and the rice was nice and fluffy. Perfect spot to grab food for a picnic or concert at Hollywood bowl. All in all nice little gem in town.

Good handrolls and a great spot for a casual date. You order all your handrolls to be delivered at once then go to find a seat, instead of one by one at the bar. I really enjoyed the scallop roll but they were all quite good.

3 Hand Roll set was yum and perfect as a quick bite. We got all salmon hand rolls, and it came with edamame and sashimi which were tiny little slivers... edamame and hand rolls were fine, and the sashimi was small but good and fresh! We also got the california and spicy tuna mayo onigiris which were my favs! The spicy tuna mayo was light, tasty and more filling than the california onigiri. The california was fine, but there was only a bit of imitation crab and mostly avocado and rice. I wish the protein to rice ratio was better for that one. The service was okay lol I don't really know how to feel about it because the cashier wasn't exactly rude but his energy just seemed off putting.. doesn't really matter to me but just thought I'd share.

Every roll was fine but what the heck is that seaweed salad? 5$ for maybe 3 bites placed on top of a bed of cabbage conveniently hidden underneath. Kind of a low blow if you ask me

Went in last night for the first time ever and it was amazing!! The rolls were fresh and well made! The tuna sashimi was delectable!! The place is clean and welcoming! Staff was very friendly and cordial. Parking was easy to find!

We stopped to grab some rice balls from rice and nori on our way to the rose bowl. We have been to a handful of onigiri joints, and we usually love them so we were excited. The staff was very friendly and gave us suggestions on their favorite items. You order at the front and can take away or seat yourself. Rice and nori has both onigiri as well as hand rolls and sashimi appetizers which is nice. We ordered 3-4 rice balls each. The rice was fluffy and the furikake on the outside was tasty. However, all of them were lacking in filling. Some of them it was hard to even find the filling or identify what was in it. We also think that some of our rolls were incorrectly filled. I would recommend they try upping their filling! At 3-4 dollars a roll, these shouldn't just consist of rice.

The three hand roll set is so worth it since it also comes with edamame and your choice of sashimi. If it's not filling enough, there's a five hand roll set option too. I chose salmon and spicy tuna as my regular choices and negi toro as my premium. The quality of the fish was great and the seaweed was still very crisp when I ate it so the textures were amazing. I opted for yellowtail as my sashimi and it came with a delicious ponzu sauce. It's a great place for quick eats and quality sushi when you're craving it.

Delicious fresh made to order hand rolls and onigiri plus sashimi and drinks with yuzu and lychee. Counter service style (my favorite kind of dining as of late). Half this place is families (yay). Shelves of Japanese snacks and ramune too. Clean bathrooms. Parking lot. Next to Hamburger Habit. Handroll sets come in 3 or 5, with choice of 2 premium cuts PLUS sashimi! Quality sushi experience -- definitely coming back!

Love this place! Its a grab and go type of japanese restaurant. I love coming here for the baked snow crab handrolls. Those are my favorite. They have many types of onigiris and handrolls. They also have set menu options if you want to try a variety of handrolls. They share a parking lot with other restaurants like The Habit, Chipotle etc.

Good, fresh food that won't break the bank. Service is quick and friendly. You won't be disappointed.

Word Of The Review: Onigiri What is a onigiri?: A Japanese rice ball made from white rice. It is usually formed into triangular or cylindrical shapes, and wrapped in nori. Onigiri traditionally have sour or salty fillings such as umeboshi, salted salmon, katsuobushi, kombu, tarako or mentaiko, or takanazuke. It is also a equivalent of a chinese/taiwanese/shanghainese fan tuan (rice roll) Credit Cards: Credit cards are accepted. Restroom: They're available. If you enter from the parking lot, it's on your right. You just have to open the door. There's two unisex restrooms available. Location/Parking: Located in the Town Square Plaza. Parking can be found in the shared lot, along Mission St., on Fair Oaks Ave., or any surrounding residential streets. Ambiance/Decor: Neat ambiance with modern furnishings. Service: Service was great! The staffer that assisted me was friendly, attentive, and offered great suggestions. The 2 onigiri's and pickle didn't take long for me to pick it up. Onigiri Of Choice: 1) Salmon Miso Yuzu: It was a tad salty, but it was still good. Sure wished there was more salmon meat though. 2) Spicy Eggplant: I liked this one the most.Plus, it wasn't that spicy. Like the salmon, it would've be nice if there was more of the filling. Other than that, it was a delight to eat! Pickle Of Choice: 1) Takuan: Definitely a palate cleanser and very refreshing. Flavor profile was up my alley. A little crunchy, salty, slightly spicy and a bit sweet. Rice & Nori For Thought: Definitely coming back for this delightful snack before or after my coffee fill at 2 Kids (Coffee shop) which is across the street.

I love a good onigiri moment, and I feel like LA is a little lacking in that department. Rice & Nori is a consistently great spot that scratches the itch! I've been to their Little Tokyo location (which I prefer--I think they tend to fill their onigiris a little more) but the South Pas one has been great too. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating with cute decorations and little snacks and merch you can purchase lined up on the walls. It's fast casual, so you order at the counter and listen for your name. I usually get the three handroll set (or the five, if I'm feeling crrrazyyyy) and occasionally an onigiri to go with it. The handrolls I love consistently are: - negitoro (premium) - baked crab (premium) - blue crab (premium) [this one is usually super fire, but can occasionally miss depending on freshness] - unagi (premium) - yellowtail - spicy tuna I've tried their other ones, like bay scallop and salmon, and they're good too. You can't really go wrong, but my favorite two are always negitoro and yellowtail. Their onigiri is also super yummy, with my favorite easily being the shrimp and lobster. This place is great bang for your buck because the sets come with edamame and sashimi! This place is perfect for when you're craving sushi but don't particularly want to blast a hole in your wallet to get it. Are the handrolls better than, say, KazuNori? No. But are they going to get the job done pretty well and for significantly less money? Absolutely.

I'm definitely a rice ball stan, so I was excited to try this place. Came here with a friend for a quick lunch after co-working nearby. I got the Salmon Yuzu and Spicy Lobster Shrimp onigiri, plus a blue crab handroll, and some edamame on the side. Everything was so tasty, and it was the perfect amount of food for a snack or light lunch. The Salmon Yuzu was definitely my favorite though. You just order at the counter, there is no table service. There were plenty of tables when we went for lunch, although it did start getting crowded. It's definitely a popular place for good reason! Parking is pretty good, because there's a little lot, but it definitely filled up once the lunch crowd came in. They also have a bunch of Japanese snacks and drinks, as well as sashimi and handrolls. I'll definitely be trying more stuff next time. Great place for dine-in fast casual style, or takeout!

The onigiri at rice and nori are great! I wish they had a larger non-seafood menu, maybe with a pork belly or karaage option. But that's just personal preference as I don't enjoy seafood! My boyfriend ordered two of the seafood options and particularly enjoyed the salmon yuzu flavor. Staff were friendly and patient as we looked over the menu. Once we ordered, the onigiri were out in less than 10 minutes. We also had a lychee lemonade that was delicious. Not too sweet, but not too tart. In hotter weather, it would be very refreshing! There is plenty of parking near rice and nori, but be careful pulling into the lot. There is a dip that is easy to bottom out on.

Hm. I really wanted to give this place one star, but for the cleanliness and not tasting bad, I'll give it 2 more stars. The rolls are SMALL! I've seen bigger handrolls at the grab-n-go station at Tokyo Central. The taste wasn't bad, but not anything I haven't had before. Like many other reviews, they should provide more filling given its almost $7 for the premium rolls. The cashier could've been friendlier, but what do we expect nowadays from cashiers lol. Anyways...definitely won't be back. I was just in the area and decided to try this place out.

We absolutely loved: - Shiitake Onigiri (fave, must try!) - Spicy Eggplant Onigiri (fave) - Umeboshi Onigiri (fave) - Spam + Egg Onigiri - Salmon Hand roll - Tuna Onigiri - Spicy Lobster Shrimp Onigiri - Pineapple Yuzu Iced Tea Didn't love: - Shio Salmon (overcooked) - Miso Yuzu Salmon (overcooked and fishy) We will come here again for sure! The bathrooms were also super clean, so I trust the kitchen is spotless. With everything we ordered, our order came out in 10 minutes!

Quick and easy lunch spot if you're craving a hand roll or onigiri! Parking is eh, but I found easy street parking a block away. One onigiri and one handroll did not fill me up, but satisfied my hunger. Service was fast. There was lots of seating. Restrooms located next to the entrance. The restaurant itself is not too big, but can fit many groups.

I love Rice & Nori with my entire heart! I'm never disappointed of this place ever. Hands down the best onigiri I've ever tried! So inexpensive as well- 3 of these fills me up and at a great price. They have a wide range of Onigiri to choose from along with rice balls or you can do a combo with sashimi. Taste super great and even the edamame is tasteful! Service here is always super friendly and they offer recommendations if you need help choosing or know what's best! The locations itself is tiny but has many tables to sit by and also some Japanese snacks you can buy as well! I love this place so much my hidden gem !!!

The food was pretty good and the place is nice and clean with plenty of seating! We got salmon yuzu miso onigiri, spicy tuna hand rolls, and a matcha horchata. Even though I was most excited to try the onigiri, I ended up preferring the spicy tuna hand rolls. I think I just prefer flavors with a bit of spice. I would definitely come back and try some of the other onigiri that are spicy. The drink was okay, I don't taste much matcha -- it just feels like a grainier, vaguely tea-flavored horchata. The cashier was nice and honestly answered my questions about whether I ordered enough without trying to get me to buy more. Overall a great option for a quick bite when you're in the area! I spent about $40 for three people (two items per person + one shared drink). I probably wouldn't go out of my way to eat here though. The area is really cute with plenty of cafes and quirky shops.

I absolutely love Rice and Nori! The onigiri are a good size and filling. - Beef Sukiyaki Onigiri: Good amount of filling here and comes with sweet and savory beef with grilled onions. - Spicy Lobster Shrimp Onigiri: My favorite! Lots of filling and the shrimp is chunky and perfectly seasoned. - Salmon Yuzu Miso: My least favorite, it's not bad but I thought the other 2 onigiris had stronger flavors. - Pineapple Yuzu Iced Tea: Sweet and refreshing! This is my new favorite drink here! I liked this more than the Matcha Horchata and Lychee Lemonade. There's some seating in here and the space is pretty clean and bright. The line moves fast and you get your food pretty quickly.

LOVE rice and nori! No matter what you get, it will be good. I've gotten a mixture of things from here. Their hand roll sets are worth the price. They come with a sashimi of choice, edamame, and then the hand rolls. The crab HR is so good. They put a good amount of protein in there. The quality is also fresh. The onigiri and musubi selections are great. My fave are the eggplant (yes eggplant!) onigiri and the yuzu salmon (omg, amazing!). My bf gets the spam and egg musubi all the time. The service is great. Everyone is friendly. You order and pay at the counter. This one has a decent size parking lot. There is indoor and outdoor seating so you can bring your dog. They are located next to chipotle and starbucks. They also sell Japanese snacks in store.

Delicious, healthy, and fast! The service was fast and to the point. The space was clean and modern. The food was fresh and umami! We had the 5 H and roll set. My favorite was the Nevi Tori handroll. Truly a heaven on earth. It was such a pleasant experience. A parking lot is available behind the building
