    Miso soup that came with each bowl
    Alan G.

    This was a great find to enjoy lunch while attending an event at the nearby convention center. Junmai Station has a bit of an unassuming presence but their food and friendly service certainly made a positive impact. We went around 12:45 pm and unfortunately, nearly all of the onigiri were sold out, so definitely worth it to go earlier. We were fortunate to enjoy the salted salmon onigiri which had a good texture on the rice and well-seasoned salmon, with the only wish being that the seaweed wrap was sturdier. We also tried their gyu-don and ahi tuna-don. The gyu-don had the right level of seasoning for our palates, with a good amount of beef and onions in the bowl. The spicy tuna don was also excellent, with sliced, buttery avocado. The miso soup that came with the rice bowls also tasted fresh and properly seasoned. Overall, it was a great visit to Junmai Station and the main recommendation is to get there early to get the chance to try their other onigiri options in addition to their rice bowls.

    Gyudon, seaweed salad and miso soup
    Nat W.

    Authentic musubi place in downtown Tampa? Yes please! While their musubi is authentic and delicious, I thought the price is bit too expensive. On the other hand, the combo meals are reasonable. They come with a delicious miso soup. I loved their Gyudon (very authentic) but could have used a little more sauce (I am used to Yoshinoya). Unfortunately I did not like their curry dish, as it looked more red than authentic Japanese curry and tasted like ketchup was in it. It had nice kick tho. The service was bit standoffish.....I didn't really like the vibe of this place. Not so welcoming and the workers seem unhappy as well. Anyways overall a delicious & authentic Japanese dishes good for takeout. Go there early! Most of musubis are out by 2pm.

    Teriyaki Chicken Bowl
    Britany B.

    One of my favorite lunch spots in the Downtown area! Reasonably priced, consistently fast service and fresh food! I love all of their rice balls and have recently started trying their bowls - which are only $12 and come with a complimentary miso soup! Tried the chicken teriyaki bowl last week and absolutely loved it!

    Takoyaki

    It's such a cute little restaurant! We walked in after craving some onigiri. There's a rule of only buying 4. That was fine with us as there were only 4 flavors left. We really enjoyed all of our meals. The bowls all came with miso soup! We also ordered edamame, the mochi from japan, and the cheesecake bun! Also very delicious. Our most favorite bowl was the pork belly bowl. It had a nice gingery taste and was perfectly cooked! If we loved here and worked in downtown, we would definitely be here all the time. The employees were always checking in on us and were the sweetest things ever?

    Real miso soup
    Rachel L.

    I loved getting lunch here! I got to try their beef curry and Gyudon with plum onigiri. The entrees came with a soup that was made with real miso and tofu. You can taste the authenticity as well as that home-cooked taste like a friend or family member cooked for you. It's definitely a favorite place of mine for lunch, and I wish it was closer to me! **They have very limited seating with a couple small tables outside and a few chairs inside. It's really more of an on the go place.

    Can't believe we didn't know about this place even though we've been passing by the area frequently. It's a tiny place so most people were taking food to go. A lot of their stuffed rice balls were selling out quick so I'd recommend going there earlier than later if you want to try those. We were able to grab a variety of em (only 1 was sold out, and we were there at around noon). The salmon one and the spam one were my fav! We also got the Buta Don bowl (good, a lil bland imo) and the takoyaki (was too mushy, def had better...). Overall, a good place to pick up some quick, fairly healthy food for lunch!

    Rainbow, baked salmon and plum
    Jo A.

    Finally got to stop by here! I wish they were open on weekends but I get that their crowd is the downtown Tampa yuppies. I wish there were more places like this Tampa! The onigiris are all so tasty! And the Buta Don (pork belly and rice bowl) came with miso soup was very filling but not heavy. Perfect for lunch! If you're around the area, during the week day, at lunch time, you have to come by, I promise you won't be disappointed.

    Get here early they sell out !!! But don't worry they can make them for you fresh if your willing to wait 5 minutes
    Nicole M.

    One of the best finds of the year ! I have been trying to find an onigiri place since moving from nyc and Tampa was finally blessed with one right on Kennedy. Make sure you drive up Kennedy you won't be able to miss it! It's a small store front but the options of onigiri pack a punch. If you don't know what onigiri is it is a rice ball filled with meat (they have vegetarian sour plum and rainbow, chicken meatball, teriyaki glazed salmon, tuna Mayo, miso hamburger, beef, shrimp tempura kani salad, baked salmon ) oh the options and they even have mochi and other traditional lunch options including don buri bowls soup and seaweed salad! They can make them for you if they run out! Which they do because I'm yum?! The owner is very nice and super helpful with explaining the options. I would highly recommend and I totally will be back to this one of a kind place in Tampa. Probably one of my favorite finds this year!

    Salmon bowl
    Antonella N.

    Small little spot was incredible! I did not know what to expect from this place. I got the salmon bowl and I tried uncooked salmon for the first time. It was delish!!! My friend got the teriyaki chicken bowl, and she even mentioned that she will be back to try the other bowls. They were really quick for it being lunchtime in downtown Tampa. We also received miso soup as a side which I did not expect because the bowl was already $14 for a good amount of food. Can't wait to go back and keep trying different bowls/drinks

    Pork Belly Bowl
    Kathy K.

    Excellent Japanese food. Basically a takeaway place with a few seats inside and out. We had the pork belly bowl and a salty salmon roll. Highly recommend!

    Ordered spam musubi, beef onigiri, and takoyaki. The takoyaki was amazinggggg. The batter was nice and soft with a slight chew to it and it was well seasoned. It was, however, expensive for just 4 pieces of takoyaki. The onigiri was good. I think it could have been better. The rice wasn't as well seasoned as j expected it to be. Otherwise, great selection, cute atmosphere, definitely will give the onigiris a try

    Spicy Tuna Don, Miso Soup
    Hannah B.

    My favorite grab-and-go lunch spot in downtown. The tuna always tastes high-quality and fresh, never gristly. The portions are pretty solid for the prices and I love, love, *love* their miso soup. Pro tip: call ahead 15-20 mins if you're ordering during peak lunch hours-- this is a popular spot for people working in downtown, and it can't take a bit for the food to come out otherwise. Always worth the wait, though!

    I attended Your Tampa Market Pop-up at the Sheraton Riverwalk on 12/12/2020 and 12/19/2020. They…read morehad a lot of great vendors at this Market. I was impressed by how well-organized the market was. There were so many great vendors! Everyone wore face masks. There was hand sanitizer at the booths that I went to. There were vendors on the outside around the pool and bar area and also on the inside in one of the banquet rooms. What better way to shop then with beautiful views of the Hillsborough River and last night was the boat parade which was an added bonus! During this time, it's important now more than ever to support our local businesses who have struggled the most! So, let's get to my shopping! Angie's Fairy Cakes and Parties had some really good prices on bundt cake for $6, Triple Chocolate Chip for $5 and Hot Cocoa Bombs for $10. I sampled some items and everything was so delicious! I ended up buying the bundt cake mmmmm... :-) Chanel's Boutique had a lot of unique items. They had so many different kinds of masks and they were good quality, too! They even had vintage purses and a red 1950s suitcase for sale. There was a really cute 1920s Art Nouveau, leather purse that was going for $200. I looked it up on the internet and a similar one was $225 + shipping. Jennifer Ann's Boutique had a lot of fun holiday, crossbody bags, Christmas ornaments for $8, and face masks for$6. The display was really cute and the prices were not bad at all. I bought some fresh sea moss from BAXXABILLION. It was made that morning. An 8 oz jar is $10 and a 16oz Jar is $20. There were also BAXXABILLION sweatshirts that look pretty high quality. And the owner, Terrence Baxter, told his personal story on how sea moss and also other natural alternatives helped to heal him after he was shot while driving an UBER! He talked about how natural alternatives changed his life, his health, and the health of his family. He's very knowledgeable on natural products. I bought some wine from Brookstone Wine. The wines are locally crafted in Spring Hill, Fl. I got to taste all of them including their delicious Tropical Sunset, Green Apple Harvest, but it came down to the Cranberry Celebration and the Blackberry Blossom. I ended up getting the Cranberries Celebrations but it was a really tough call! They're $20 a bottle. A little pricey but got to support local. I also bought a couple of hand rolled cigars from Smokey's Lifestyle Cigars. The bourbon infused cigars smelled AMAZING. I bought a pack of the Rum infused ones. I think they were 5 for $20. Thr prices were pretty good. There were so many great vendors including Ilianna's Boutique with such great stuff for 20-somethings, Lavish Lab Cosmetics with the most luscious glosses, and on and on. I wanted to buy from all of them but I just didn't have enough money! I put some of their cards in my review if you wanted to check them out. Happy Holidays Yelp fam :-)

    I have been to and participated in many "Your Tampa Markets" shows. It's always a great time…read more Incredible food, great art, and a wide variety of vendors. I would highly recommend any of their shows as a great way to spend an afternoon.

    The bang bang chicken at Shiso Crispy didn't just steal my attention. It robbed me, took my wallet,…read moreand I'd gladly help it escape. First off, the crunch is so loud it could qualify as a sound effect in an action movie. I took one bite and half expected someone to yell "CUT!" The chicken itself is juicy, but let's be honest it's really just a vehicle for that bang bang sauce, which tastes like sweet, spicy, and "text your ex you've changed" all rolled into one. I told myself I'd share. That was a lie. A bold faced, shameless lie. The plate hit the table and suddenly I turned into a territorial raccoon guarding its last meal. By the end, my fingers were sticky, my dignity was gone, and I was seriously considering ordering a second round like I hadn't just embarrassed myself in public.

    Shysters. The tuna dish was 19 dollars. Was a good dish and my gf got it a few times. Now it "was"…read moresuddenly 24 dollars and is half price for 12. Kind of weird but okay. This is a new dish, if you can even call it one. Literally two slices of tuna, no side of sauce which it's supposed to have, a bunch of old cabbage for filling (even though the new container is half the size as it is), and what could be nothing else but soggy potato chips (yes, literally they put in chips, I don't even know how else to put it except it literally had chips in it). Pathetic. Completely pathetic.
