" Onibaba holds a special place in my heart. The food is unmatched; you can tell they focus on the quality of their ingredients. I had the miso-marinated eel and it was out of this world! The service was overwhelmingly attentive without being intrusive, and the space was cozy. I would suggest going with friends so you can enjoy a variety of dishes together—it makes for a fun tasting experience! Will be back for more onigiri! " (*Curated Review*)

" This dining experience at Onibaba was fantastic! I enjoyed their menu, which offers a variety of onigiri that are creatively prepared. The karaage was a highlight as it was crispy and juicy! The restaurant feels cozy but gets busy quickly, so I recommend arriving early. The staff were attentive and seemed to genuinely care about the dining experience. I will definitely return to explore more of their options. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn’t sure what to expect from Onibaba, but I’ve been truly blown away by the culinary experience here. The taste transports you directly to Japan! Everything we tried—from the classic curries to the unique onigiri—made me fall more in love with Japanese food. My favorites were the yaki onigiri and the dashi, so comforting! Remember to arrive early to avoid a long wait, as the space is cozy but fills up fast. I’m already planning my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food and lovely atmosphere! We had the salted salmon onigiri and ochazuke, and it tasted just like home! The authenticity really came through. The interior is cozy, although it can get a little crowded. The service was prompt, and the prices are reasonable. Just be mindful that their portions may feel a bit small if you’re very hungry. I’m looking forward to my next visit for the seasonal specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" I found Onibaba to be quite charming. The small space made for an intimate feel and I enjoyed the onigiri a lot. The flavors were very familiar and comforting. I especially liked the tuna mayo one! However, the portion sizes left me wanting more. I'll definitely be returning for another try of their menu items! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible experience overall! My family and I are big fans of Japanese cuisine, and Onibaba did not disappoint. We tried a little bit of everything—onigiri, ochazuke, and karaage—and each dish was packed with flavor. I especially loved the grilled eel which was perfectly cooked. The cozy atmosphere made us feel right at home. Only advise is to get here early; we had to wait a bit, but it was well worth it. Can't wait to return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Onibaba is remarkable! Each onigiri has unique flavors and ingredients that make them stand out. I had the salmon onigiri and just loved it! The broth for the ochazuke was so flavorful yet light. The cozy ambiance makes it homely. Despite being busy, the staff managed to provide great service. I highly recommend Onibaba for anyone craving authentic Japanese bites. " (*Curated Review*)
