    Location at the mall
    Victoria L.

    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.

    Teriyaki 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!

    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.

    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.

    They had the sweetest staff and the food was amazing!! They gave very generous portions for their poke bowl and did not skimp on the fish which tasted amazing I definitely will be coming back

    Hawaiian salmon, salmon, and all their toppings offered.

    This place is just awesome. The onigiris are just perfect and very fresh! Definitely recommend this place.

    Loved the poke, fresh ingredients and great flavor. Would totally get it again. The owner was so nice, she was so helpful!!

    Poke Bowl (L)

    Loved this place! Everything was super fresh and full of flavor. You can tell they really care about quality. I'll definitely be coming back.

    Small poke ball with 3 protein options
    Asal P.

    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.

    Its the second time that i tried but the taste of it never changes. It is awesome juicy and so delicious thank you oniguru :)))

There are some outdoor seatings and indoor seatings available. The service is prompt, efficient, and very friendly. My orders are always ready upon arrival. Usually in less than 10 minutes, if that. I super appreciate their sense of urgency. Now the food itself is also something noteworthy in my opinion. The chicken and avocado salad came with generous portions of perfectly ripe and sliced avocados. The salad dressing was something I didn't expect I enjoy so much. I am hooked! Please sell them by the gallons! I will buy it weekly! The avocado rolls also came with very generous portions of perfectly ripe avocados. Not a blemish in sight and very fresh and tasty. I actually ended up getting full just eating them by itself first. The grilled salmon bento is a must order. I loved how the salmon was cooked. The sauce wasn't too sweet, which I appreciated. I am glad I ordered mine with extra avocado. It made for a very filling meal. The dumplings were also delicious and the 4-pc California rolls were such a nice contrasting side kick. The salad came with their wonderful dressing too! I didn't expect the accompanying soup complimenting the meal so perfectly. The best $20 something meal I spent in awhile! I am looking forward to revisiting again this week and trying out their other menu items. The location is right off of 5 Freeway exit and in the same shopping center as Target and Kona Loa Coffee which makes for a really good spot to get food from on-the go.

The space is clean, welcoming, and comfortable, exactly what you want when you're stepping out for a quick but satisfying lunch. The food? Consistently delicious. The sashimi is fresh and clean, with that perfect melt-in-your-mouth quality. The chicken teriyaki is also very good, flavorful, tender, and generously portioned. And the lunch combo is the real standout: about $14 gets you your entrée plus miso soup, salad, and rice. In this area, that price simply can't be beat. On top of that, sushi chef Luke is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Great service makes a big difference, and he absolutely delivers.

    So stoked for an onigiri place in south county. Kid friendly and cooked fish in generous portions…read more I tell my kids this is like the perfect Asian sandwich - rice, sea vegetable (seaweed) and fish (they have meat options too). Easy to eat - it's wrapped in a triangle like a sandwich and easy to pack. We also had the shrimp bowl, salmon bowl and tuna bowl. All delicious. My son wanted to come back and we got the Korean bbq bowl too Lastly bonus for the store taking online orders, responding to texts, and being very kind when I was lost and couldn't find the place and had to come back the next day to get my food. They were so gracious about the whole thing. Plus they are next to Oslo Coffee, which is another great spot so all the more reason to go there.

And there was music playing, some board games, and the place was very clean. The food was great; the onigiri had a solid amount of filling and the rice was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The poke bowl customizations were great and also a solid grab. The prices were affordable and I recommend coming here for a quick bite with a good amount of variety. The drinks were a but underwhelming, and could definitely use some more of the flavor that they said they were (I.e. lychee, lavender). I would definitely come back again to give their drinks a second chance. There aren't too many good onigiri options elsewhere and their midnight closing time on Friday and Sunday has been very convenient.
