    Karage sandwich , shrimp tempura rice ball , pork ongiri, masubi egg cucumber spam
    Antony Z.

    Really really good food , tried the karragae sandwhich , shrimp tempura rice ball , spam (exceptionally cooked) masubi sandwich with egg and cucumber and the pork ongiri which was really nice tasting. All sauces on everything were adequately spread and portions were more than reasonable. Would come back without a doubt ! Thank you for the service and politeness as well

    Found these really hard pieces of plastic in the Yuzu Salmon Onigiri.

    I purchased a TooGoodToGo bag from here and found pieces of plastic in the onigiri. I was freaking out thinking they were nail clippings but they're too thick and hard. Could have been pieces of a container.

    Love this little spot. Been coming here for years for ramen and glad they now have some quick bites to grab and go. My favorite is the salmon miso onigiri! I also love that they give you a lot of filling/topping compared to rice. Friendly staff too! Highly recommend.

    Onigiri!

    Champ Onigiri is located in Ramen Champ, another gem in South San Jose. Champ Onigiri offers a variety of food items, including onigiri, sandos, and musubi. There is plenty of parking out front and it's right off the 85 near Kaiser San Jose. The onigiri is self-service, and they are only open from 10 am to 2 pm. Since its located inside of Ramen Champ the location feels great and cozy. I'd recommend getting there early, as I've been there closer to 2 and found very little selection. The rice is cooked perfectly. I'd recommend the tuna mayo and spicy tuna, as it's exactly what you would expect from onigiri. The sake and shiso kombu onigiri are another favorite. The sandos are okay, and their spin on spam musubi is good. All the onigiri and musubis have the right amount of rice to ingredient. If you're in the mood for onigiri, this is definitely the spot to grab lunch and go.

    Okay 3.5stars…read more Ordered for pick up for a group work lunch - the team is trying to find add a restaurant to the usual spots we hit up. Ordering online was easy and organized; I was able to send a link for the cart for everyone to add in their order. Loved this feature and it was very easy to customize. Our order... Ciao Down $12.29 (x2) The ciaodown was a hit. REO speed wagon $11.49 The REO looked really good, but my coworker said it was okay. Baja Fiesta Salad $12.49 I did have a complaint about my salad though - they only gave me a single sliver of avocado. Completely skimped on it. I thought maybe they have more on the bottom, NOPE, just disappointment. I do want to add that the salad looked great otherwise. The ingredients didn't seem old. Chicken Pesto $10.99 The pesto was liked. We voted not to add this place to our list of regular lunch spots haha. But who knows, might give them another chance down the line.

Overall, we will return for not only sugar cravings but maybe a juice, torta or panini sandwich. The menu really has a large selection to choose from. Clean establishment with a good vibe. Nestled in the corner of a huge plaza. Thank you Munchiiez!!

The smells magically heal you and the food is a comforting hug! Things move quick, but grab your number and be ready to order.

For example I like the potato salad and will get a bit of that and a stuffed mushroom on the side. So yummy! Also love the seating outside is great! Will be back time and time again!

Small parking lot but there is plenty street parking in the vicinity. There is seating right outside the place so if you want to sit and eat you can. You walk in and it feels and smells like you've stepped into someone's home. Even if this is your first time here the aroma is nostalgic for some reason. I think it's muscle memory. When you've had delicious comfort food your soul senses it regardless of whether or not you've been there. I ordered Doordash pick up because I was ordered on a Thursday for lunch and didn't know what the line would look like. So I walked right in and gave my name and was handed my bag-o-goodies. They have shelves of dry goods to purchase. Refrigerated items to purchase. Their deli counter is towards the back and wraps around the front. I ordered: 1. 2 meatballs: hearty and delicious. 2. Beef raviolis: small but packed with meat and in their meat sauce. Flavorfull! 3. Arancini: I've never tried one. It's a rice ball filled with veggies, cheese and ground meat. Then rolled in breadcrumbs and deep fried. Then served with their sauce. Holy Moly!!! Why have I never had this heavenly piece of Italy?!?!?! Seasoned well and fried well. It's a meal in it of itself! 4. Garlic bread: hot, buttery, garlicky toasted goodness! The only thing I finished was the arancini. I took a bite of each of the rest just so I could write this review and will save for my sons for when I get home because it's all too good not to be shared. Will be back!

Fast forward to getting my food. Imagine my delight when she places a small bowl of green onions, cilantro, and onions on the side for the garnish... because she just knew that my kid HATES these things in his noodles and needs me to pick them out for him... That is top tier service. I always love coming here. But I just had to share this story for all the parents out there looking for a family friendly restaurant.

    I can't believe this little gem has been in my neighborhood and I haven't come here in the six…read moreyears that I've lived here! I'm honestly kicking myself for not trying it sooner. First off, the menu is massive--and I mean that in the best way possible. From a wide variety of appetizers and fresh salads to seven different bánh mì sandwiches (served with chips and a drink), the options just keep going. They also offer 19 different beef noodle soups and over 40 rice plates; additionally, there are vermicelli, fried rice, and vegetarian dishes. I haven't seen a Vietnamese restaurant with this much variety before--it was almost overwhelming trying to decide what to order! But let's talk about the real standout: the pho. Hands-down, this is the best soup broth for noodles that I've had. It was rich, comforting, and perfectly seasoned--I didn't need to add any hoisin, sriracha, or anything else. It was that good on its own. When my pho arrived, I noticed the noodles were served in what I can only describe as a "noodle ball." It looked like a compact bundle at first, but as I stirred it into the broth, it loosened and spread out beautifully. Such a small detail, but it made the experience feel unique. I did ask for the spicy sauces on the side, but honestly, I didn't even need them. The soup was so flavorful on its own that I just enjoyed it as is. I'm still amazed I haven't been here until now. The only downside? Even though they have AC, the restaurant still felt pretty warm--especially on a hot day. Needless to say, I was sweating while eating my hot bowl of pho. Not ideal, but honestly, the food made up for it. Another thing that caught my attention was the restroom signage--it actually made me laugh out loud. Little touches like that add personality to the place. The service was quick, and the décor had an eclectic yet culturally on-point vibe that really worked. With a menu this big, there are so many things I want to try next--so I will absolutely be coming back. TIP: Come hungry, dress light on warm days, and take your time with the menu--you'll definitely be back to try more. 4/11/26: ate here again and it did not disappoint.

Around 7pm there was only one table occupied table but there were a lot of customers who were there for pick up or ordering home- like me. It actually took longer than expected but worth the wait. For a plate with three skewers it's about $23 and an additional $2 if you want to change your friends to salad. For two skewers it's only $20! They have plates, family style (only skewers), gyros, souvlaki and soup and salad! For the wraps, they include: tomato, onions, fries, tzatziki and yellow sauce. There's lots of space to eat, but when it's at the end of the day you just want to take the food to go.

I arrived on a Sunday afternoon for a late lunch. Dave's Hot Chicken is located in the nice Village Oaks Plaza off Cottle Road in South San Jose. Plenty of parking is accessible in the large parking lot all around. The restaurant has a vibrant modern decor with bright fun graffiti plastered all around the walls. It is spacious with plenty of tables inside for dining. I wanted to try a bit of everything so I ordered Dave's meal #3 which consisted of 1 tender, 1 slider, 1 slice of bread, pickles, and a side of Dave's sauce. I selected mild heat level. Everything was delicious. The tender was moist and flavorful. The slider was scrumptious with every bite. Fries were crispy and salted just right. Dave's sauce worked perfectly with everything. Overall I enjoyed my experience at Dave's Hot Chicken. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere was family friendly and welcoming. Opening until late night hours is convenient. I will be back to try the other menu options.
