You really cant beat the price or awesome selection here. I agree that the spicy tuna lacks bite but, nonetheless, I fully intend to try each different item over the course of the next few weeks.

The flavors are subtle and well executed. I had the eel, ume and salmon roe and each was a simple presentation of the main ingredient, with balance from the rice treatment in each ball. The eel was nicely sweet and the ume seemed to have tiny bits of roasted tea leaves. Maybe not a great place if you are in the mood for huge flavors, but the variety of tastes in this group was very nice. No line today at 1. The price of the 3 ball set is up to $8.50.

She recommended that I try the spicy tuna rice ball. It was the first time I had tried it. I really enjoyed it. I usually eat the salmon rice ball but now I have come to enjoy something different for a change. The way they dress up the rice balls makes it more enticing to want to try the others, very colorful and of course healthy and hardy. Prices are very reasonable and I would highly reccommend eating there every chance you get if you are into rice balls...David Coqueran.

It is a cute little shop, great looking food, and we found the staff to be friendly and quick. My coworker and I got spicy tuna, hajiki, california roll, chicken, shrimp popcorn and chili shrimp. It was all "ok" - we weren't blown away by the flavors and thought they could have used some seasoning. The chili shrimp had the most flavor. I was surprised that the spicy tuna wasn't spicier - tasted like regular tuna salad to me (I like Zaiya's version better). My coworker did like the miso soup (scallions instead of seaweed) and I liked the seaweed salad. I did like the rice, white and brown - it was really, really good. All the ingredients did taste fresh. We decided we liked it, but not enough to make the walk over there again. I may go back if I happen to be in the neighborhood.
