" I visited Omusubi Gonbei on a Sunday afternoon and was excited to try their well-praised rice balls! I opted for the eel and spicy salmon, and both were quite good. However, I noticed that there was less eel in my rice ball than I expected. The nice thing is that you can see them preparing the food right in front of you, which adds an authentic touch. The service was quick, and prices are reasonable for the quality. I’ll definitely stop by again to try more flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Picked up some onigiri and fried chicken to go! It was such a great experience. The rice balls are packed with flavor, though I felt the karaage was just okay. The rice was moist and perfectly cooked, something I find is hard to maintain for onigiri. Pricing is a bit higher than anticipated, but with the quality, it was worth it. Definitely returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the absolute pleasure of eating at Omusubi Gonbei last week, and let me tell you, it was an experience! The atmosphere felt lively, and it was refreshing to see how fast they operated. The spicy tuna rice ball was delicious, though I wish there was a bit more filling to balance out the rice. Their karaage is noteworthy and really juicy! The prices match the quality, though I hope they eventually expand their space as it was a bit cramped with long lines during lunchtime. But overall, a solid option for rice balls! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best place for onigiri hands down! The flavors are diverse and unique. I ordered the Eel and spicy chicken today. While the eel was exquisite, the spicy chicken’s filling left much to be desired. The line here can get quite long, but it's worth the wait for fresh onigiri! I highly recommend the Bomb; it’s one of the biggest sellers for a reason! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best-kept secret in Mitsuwa! Omusubi Gonbei offers authentic onigiri with some of the freshest rice you can imagine. I had the Karaage and the Spicy Tuna, and while both were fantastic, the portion sizes feel inconsistent from visit to visit—sometimes you get a lot of filling, other times not so much. I keep coming back for the quality and flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had high expectations based on the reviews, but I found my experience at Omusubi Gonbei a bit underwhelming. The food was nice and the rice was fresh, but I felt that there was too much rice and not enough filling. My spicy tuna was tasty, but I wanted more of it! The atmosphere is typical for a food court, so don’t expect anything fancy. Overall, it was decent but could be improved. " (*Curated Review*)

" Onigiri lovers, rejoice! This place offers an array of rice balls that cater to your tastes. My family enjoys visiting here together since they have vegetarian options, such as the shirasu rice ball, which we all devoured. The price is very reasonable considering the quality! Just try not to visit during weekends; the crowd can be overwhelming and the waiting time long. Still, a solid recommendation from me! " (*Curated Review*)
