    We came to the plaza on a Sunday afternoon when we were shocked to see that there was a line was out the door. We wanted to try to matcha icecream but when we got to the counter, they said they ran out. This was about 2p in the afternoon. We decided to stick around and try their other stuff. Prices were steep for the omusubi. The yuzu matcha was on the sweeter side and overly priced at 8 dollars!! It was a disappointment and I probably won't go back.

    This was our second time visiting, and we were excited to finally try the sukiyaki since it was sold out during our first visit. In total I ordered 9 omusubi to help support the business and share among friends. Unfortunately, after taking a bite, we found a hair in the sukiyaki. We had ordered five sukiyaki omusubis in total, but after discovering the hair, I completely lost my appetite and my group and I couldn't bring ourselves to eat any of them. It was a very disappointing and unpleasant experience, especially since we had been looking forward to trying it for so long. This was right when they first opened as well

    We happened to be at The Enclave during Omusubi's grand opening weekend, so we decided to give it a try. They were running a promotion where purchases over $30 came with a free matcha latte, I chose the hot latte option. We shared four omusubi flavors: Yakiniku Beef, Avocado Tofu, Salmon Roe, and Shrimp Tempura. Overall, they were all quite tasty, though the beef was a bit chewy. I especially liked that the seaweed was packaged separately, keeping it crispy instead of getting soggy before eating. We also added the grilled corn and fried chicken as side dishes. Both complemented the omusubi nicely. As for the free matcha latte, I'm not sure if it was because of the promotion, but the drink was surprisingly small, more like a kid-sized portion. Overall, I think Omusubi is best suited for a snack, light meal, or grab-and-go option rather than a hearty meal. You can take your food and enjoy it anywhere in The Enclave's spacious outdoor seating area. We had a great time during opening weekend. Between the photo ops, balloon artists, photo booth, and festive atmosphere, the whole event felt welcoming and fun.

    Strawberry Matcha Latte

    Decided to stop by and try the viral Omusubi today. Ordered the two onigiri set, with salmon and masago and spicy salmon along with a strawberry matcha latte. The onigiri was good, definitely handmade, and had ample filling; just wish they were bigger than the ones you can get from Asian markets in the area. The latte actually had a very nice flavor, not overly earthy or sweet; again just wish it was a bit larger for the price. This was an alright experience, I might return in the future.

    Grand Opening  05-23-2026

    I came for the Grand Opening on 05-23-2026. They were super organized and had different entertainment areas! I was #40 in line. Prior to the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony, the first 50 were called to return to line up. This restaurant is located next to HiroNori Craft Ramen at The Enclave. Parking lots available in the front & back. Free parking. This is more of a Grab n Go place. The Enclave has outdoor seating directly outside. If you prefer indoor seating, you can go to the building where there are more shops as well as a large indoor seating area. They are giving the first 200 people in line 2 Omusubi, a side, a drink, and a sauce. There was a hiccup with my order because I opted for alternative milk. All the orders like this were delayed. They called 15 orders past my number before I asked about mine. My bag had been sitting on the counter waiting for my drink. Grand Opening only, I hope! I took my food out to the indoor dining area in Building C. I first removed the Mt. Fuji shaped Omusubi! I was glad to see that the Omusubi had the Seaweed pre-wrapped separately waiting for you to assemble it yourself when you are ready to eat it! The rice was fluffy and soft and the Salmon & Roe filling was delicious! I do feel like this is a premium Omusubi! I brought home the Crab & Tarako to eat later. I didn't really care for the fried chicken side, probably because it was cold. The picture shows 3 pieces, but my container only had 2. The Sriracha Mayo was good. It had a tiny bit of detectable heat. I'd probably skip the Chicken next time. I feel that for the quality of the Omusubi, $7.50 is worth it. You can save money if you order the two or three deal. Looks like they will have more than 4 options of Omusubi in the future. Next time I want an Omusubi, I might come here. I usually get a Spam Musubi from Faka's Island Grill when I order from there. I would like to try their Soft Serve Ice in the future!

    I came on Grand Opening Day. So many festivities happening. They gifted the first 200 with 2 musubi, a side and matcha. I arrived around 9:20 am and was number 186 and 187. Waited about 2 hours, but plenty of things to do while I waited. When we finally arrived to the counter, we were asked to choose two musubi each. We got the beef sukiyaki, crab and tarako and 2 salmon and salmon roe. We could also choose a side, chicken or corn. We opted for chicken. We also got to choose a hot or iced matcha. Everything was absolutely delicious and so filling. Definitely get a matcha! We even met the chef from Japan. Definitely coming back to taste the other musubi options! I feel this place will be a go to place for me. Plenty of parking in the Enclave. Welcome to the neighborhood!

    Omusubi is an onigiri chain that originated from Hong Kong and is now located in the Enclave. The onigiri prices are about $7 - $7.50, but if you get their combo, it lowers the price to about $6 each. While I do understand the quality of the ingredients, I believe the prices are a bit steep for the amount of filling they put in the onigiri. Three rice balls I ordered were the beef sukiyaki, crab meat & tarako, and salmon & salmon roe. The beef sukiyaki highlight was the 4-day marinated egg yolk in the center of the onigiri. Other than that, there were barely any pieces of meat in the actual rice ball. The crab meat and tarako, on the other hand, had more filling in them. Each bite was flavorful, and surprisingly contained real crab meat rather than artificial. The salmon and salmon roe onigiri sadly had a similar issue to the beef sukiyaki. It just lacked the salmon amount, not making it worth $7.50. I do understand that the employees are still under training, so I give their service the benefit of the doubt. Overall, if you are looking to try something new, I believe Omusubi is a place that you can potentially go to.

    2nd day of they grand opening.
    Joy D.

    More hype than taste. The $8 rice ball with some crab and tarako definitely left me underwhelmed. The crab filling was minimal. It's warm which is nice but a bit challenging to open for a first timer even with their thoughtful step by step guide. It's a great location and fast friendly service. I'm open to trying the beef rice ball.

    Was at their grand opening on May 23, 2027. Friendly staff, clean interior, and minimalist menu (in a good way!). The grand opening special was the first 200 people get 2 omusubi, 1 side and a matcha latte. All very good! The matcha latte was just enough sweetness. The crab omusubi was delicious. It was made of real crab and had roe in it. The beef sukiyaki was also delicious. The side of fried chicken unfortunately wasn't crispy, but the taste was still good with the side of Japanese BBQ sauce. Regular price for everything would've been over $28, so this was a very generous giveaway!

    Human hair found mixed into the Beef Sukiyaki filling.
    Sierra M.

    I was so excited to try the Beef Sukiyaki omusubi. After a few bites of only rice, I decided to bite one of the corners for a taste of the beef. To my utter disgust, as I was chewing, I noticed that there was a black looking string intertwined in the meat. It didn't look like a shredded beef piece. I pulled out the "string" and lo and behold, it was a black, inch-long, human hair. I am utterly shocked that there can be hair mixed INTO the beef filling. I threw the rest of the omusubi away. I tried to call the restaurant at least 10 times but no one has answered. This is awful and I warn other customers to check their food before they take a bite. EDIT: Omusubi was excellent in handling this issue and we received a full refund. The customer service was excellent.

    Rija K.

    The omusubi was literally all rice and their matcha that they claim to get from kyoto and customer service was NOTHING like japan. I just got back from japan 2 weeks ago and i know what quality matcha and customer service taste and feels like but this place is NOT authentic at all. Firstly the matcha latte taste like milk and no taste of matcha at all and when i asked to have extra matcha they said yes and i PAID for it and then when they gave me a drink they said sorry the barista said we cant do extra matcha and i told them well u should have disclosed that when i placed my order and PAID for it because i would have chose not to order had i known. Like dont bait and switch. and then not even refund me after making me pay for extra matcha??? Unprofessional unethical way of running business to promise something then not deliver and take your money for it. And they were so incredibly rude completely unapologetic and the matcha in its current state tasted so bad like just milk. Not sure why they have long lines, very misleading that its the same thing as japan because it truly is far from an authentic japanese experience. Another spot where the owner needs to check his employees manners and learn to be kinder to the customers that will be the reason your business survives. Definitely not a place that deserves the hype it is getting and i certainly will not be a returning customer after this experience.

    Yuzu Matcha Latte
    Yasmeen A.

    This is their first storefront in the US! We are so lucky to have one here in Los Angeles. My cousin and I tried the spicy tuna, salmon, and shrimp tempura onigiris! All of them were mouthwatery delicious! Their Yuzu Matcha latte was also very refreshing. You can sit outside and enjoy their food.

    Umbrellas for waiting
    Catherine N.

    We came during their opening weekend and the entire wait was probably around 40 minutes. They had a promotion of a free matcha or lemonade with a $30+. The matcha is stronger in taste with a light sweetness. The vanilla cone was very refreshing and a bit on the icy side. Their menu was limited for the weekend, so they didn't have the entire menu. We tried three onigiris as part of the trio combo. The filling was very light, it was mostly rice. The crab was soooo fishy, we couldn't finish it because that's how bad it was. The chicken was lacking too, we got the last order of the chicken and the portion was crazy. Ridiculous how it was $5.50 for 3 tiny nuggets. There's no indoor seating, but there's outdoor seating.

    The taste is mediocre...

Walking in there's plenty of seating and gives Izakaya vibes. One thing I love about this place is their portions and price. I got their special chicken cutlet combo which came with California rolls, udon, rice salad, katsu and miso soup all for $25, thats so good. Even if it was $30 I feel like thats solid for what you get. All of it was delicious and I loved the katsu most of all. Would definitely come back and bring my family.

When we arrived for lunch, the place was quite festive with a mixture of young people, families with kids, and an ongoing lunch party with senior ladies. Luckily, we were able to get the last table, and the friendly waiter brought the water and menus right away. After browsing through their menu, we ordered the following items: Special Fish Combo (Spanish Mackerel): The Spanish mackerel was nicely grilled but lightly seasoned. It had quite a few bones, which took a little bit out of the enjoyment of the meal. The udon noodles had a very nice texture, however the broth was on the bland side. The California rolls were well made and flavorful. Tempura Combo: The shrimps were tender, however, the battered outer layer of the tempura was a tad thick and not quite airy. Like Fish Combo, the udon had a bland broth, and the California rolls were fine. Our main issue was the 50-minute wait time for the meals. As a courtesy, the restaurant definitely should have informed us about the delay.

    What a hidden gem if you like kicking it back with old school sushi.....Nothing fancy, no sauces…read moredripped all over the sushi....or sushi baked in the oven. Or a menu with a 100 different choices of speciality rolls. This place is all about going back to the basics with an extremely small menu focused on just a couple of items: Inari, California roll, mackrael, shrimp sushi and more. The sushi is authentic and yummy in the tummy! If you are deciding to stop in for some sushi- Make sure you order in advance as they do sell out. Call the shop to put your order in with pick up time. Note the shop is not open at night- best to call early in the morning before they sell out. The shop is just carry away. There are no places to sit and dine. You will find this shop within an apartment complex on the first floor around a courtyard. If nobody is at the window, ring the bell at your pick up time and a friendly person will attend to you. The ladies are so cute. And the to go boxes are so cute and perfect as well. Once you grab your box, you can enjoy it at home or take it to the park.... Don't forget to bring cash as this is a cash only place!!!!

Once you place your order, they carefully pack your box like a gift! Customer service is the best. You can tell they take pride with their food. Restaurant is really small and meant for to go orders only. This place can be a bit hard to find so keep that in mind. Anyway, support small businesses and enjoy!!

After finally being seated, I asked for the 50% off menu, and that's when they told us they were already out of stock. This completely defeated the purpose of us coming in, especially since we had called ahead to confirm. This isn't the first time I've had issues here either. On a previous visit, we weren't seated despite there being open tables. Overall, the lack of communication and organization is really disappointing. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back.
