This is my favorite onigiri spot in OC. The fish tastes great, the balance of rice and filling is perfect, and the people working are always very friendly! The tuna mayo is my favorite, but the spicy tuna and crab are also pretty good. I had the salmon on a prior visit and thought the filling was kind of dry, but it had a great flavor. A great option for a quick bite at Mission Viejo mall! read more

Food is amazing. Kind and helpful they are very patient with new people that want to try the food. In simple words you cant go wrong read more

Delicious onigiris! Really friendly staff who were helpful in choosing what to order. I recommend the salmon onigiri.

I was so happy to see this new restaurant pop up in the food court! I love onigiri but their availability is very limited. Especially for the good quality ones. I was greeted by a very pleasant employee who helped me order since it was my first time visiting. She recommended the teriyaki salmon for my flavor and it did not disappoint! I loved it! I wasn't very hungry so I just ordered one onigiri and it was the perfect amount of food. I would definitely only need 2 to be full. The seaweed was fresh and crispy and the seasoning on the rice was absolutely delicious! I will definitely be back here again soon!! Next time with a bigger appetite! read more

Oniguru - Teriyaki salmon Onigiri! - Japanese Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

It hurts to share our experience because we really really want to love this place. Unless you're ordering a poke bowl, the onigiri take a very very long time. People who ordered after us and also ordered onigiri received their food before we did. The poke bowl was quick. Compared to other poke places, it was too much rice and not enough of the fish, veggies and other components. The fish pieces were sinewy and flavor wasnt good. We ordered four onigiri - two salmon, one beef bulgogi and one tuna. Again the ratio of rice to everything else was off (too much rice) and the tuna one was sour. We couldn't eat it. It's in the mall food court so there's plenty of seating. We tried the Ladera Ranch location before and liked the food. Our order was accurate so I'll give credit for that aspect. But for the price and disappointing experience, we won't be returning to this one. read more

Loved having a healthier option at the food court at the mall in Mission Viejo! Service was excellent. Made a 4 protein poke bowl. Love the unlimited topping choices you can add. Came out to under $19. I could definitely make two meals out of a bowl. The protein was fresh. No stomach ache as per previous poke places -- win!!! Hubby got the truffle corn. He liked it. Food court ambiance. Quick & comfy booths to eat in. read more

So we all got what we wanted to eat at the food court tonight. My sister wanted to try OniGuru, a new poke place just popped up in the food court of Mission Viejo mall. She got a bowl and some rice balls. Not sure what flavor her husband and her got but they liked it. I was going to order something there at first, but when I approached the counter, the smell of raw fish discouraged me from ordering. For as much as I like fish, I just do not enjoy that fishy smell of raw fish. read more

Oniguru - Yum bowl with three proteins - Japanese Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

This place deserves 10 stars! Everything from the people who work there, the food and the fresh ingredients they use are amazing! It's been a while since I had Onigiri, there are not many places in Orange County. When I saw this cute place, I had to try it. I'm so glad I did! The Onigiri trio was amazing, the girls were the sweetest and helped me to decide what to get. It's so refreshing to have a different option in the food court. It was my first time, but for sure not the last. They now have a regular, I'm hooked! You guys are awesome, see you soon:) read more

Came by to the mall and decided to have a look at the food court. Saw this place, I think it's fairly new, and decided to try it. I got a crab salad onigiri and it was splendid. It has crunchy toppings on the side and everything tasted really fresh. The cashier was really nice and welcoming. Definitely coming back to get a poke bowl :) read more

Definitely a hidden gem. The owner was super sweet and patiently explained the whole menu. The food was packed with protein, the edamame portion was huge, and the lemonade was insanely good. Will definitely be back! read more

Me and my wife stopped at the mall where this was on our way to San Diego and I'm glad we decided to try this place! The staff were friendly and efficient. We didn't have to wait long for our order.

Oniguru - 4 piece Salmon, crab, and shrimp Onigiri - Japanese Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

The food was actually good. I took off a star for the prices. $17 for a small poke bowl is too much. They were out of cucumber but otherwise everything tasted great and fresh. It's nice to have a healthy option at Mission mall at least. The staff was nice and helpful. It's located in the food court next to paradise bakery. read more

Oniguru - Japanese Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

Absolutely amazing experience! We visited Oniguru at The Shops at Mission Viejo as a family my wife, our daughter, and we loved everything we tried. Our daughter sampled four different onigiri flavors and enjoyed each one. My wife had the beef bowl (the portion was huge, so we even had to take some to go!), and I tried the poke bowl. This way we got to taste a bit of everything, and all of it was truly delicious. The staff and the owner were incredibly warm, friendly, and helpful. The restaurant was super clean. We left very satisfied and have definitely found a new spot we'll be visiting regularly. Highly recommended. read more

Food was really delicious! Portions were big and the staff was great will definitely come back and refer

Highly recommend! So good and the portions are great. Personally like the spicy crab. Will be back soon!

Overpriced for very low quantity and low quality food. You pay a lot of money for just rice and a very small portion of protein. They just raised their prices a lot and reduced the volume and quality of their foods especially the protein on and in their rice triangles. I will not purchase food from here anymore. read more

I ordered rectory Door Dash. Order arrived with limp nori, old rice that deflated apart when I tried to pick the oniguri up and the shrimp was a strange texture. I won't order from this location again. I'm surprised at the high rating too. read more

I order a poke bowl and corn. I really like it. Medium size bowl includes 4 types of protein and I get all kinda of sides. My mom and I share one bowl and feel full! read more

I am a huge fan of Onigiri and Oniguru does not neglect the quality of their product! Super flavorful spicy mayo with a generous portion of filling. I can be rather picky with my rice balls and these will certaintly bring me back for more. Likewise the service was top notch! Super attentive, ameable, and gentil. The shrimp filling recommendation absolutely hit the spot. Until next time, Oniguru read more

It's sort of expensive for some stuffed ball of rice, and the top it off they only have 1 person making it, so it takes quite a long time to get your order. Food is pretty good though read more
