Sankaku Onigiri Cafe & Bar is a charming restaurant known for its delicious and fresh meals. The tuna mayo and sweet potato salad are standouts, and all menu items have been highly praised. The establishment also offers unique cocktails, with the yuzu drink with mezcal and firewater being a favorite. The onigiri rice balls, including the salmon basil, shiso potato, and tuna mayo options, have received positive feedback for their taste. Many customers mention the rice being perfectly seasoned, warm, and infused with sesame seeds, making the onigiris especially enjoyable. The staff is friendly and helpful, creating a pleasant dining experience. Some menu options may sell out, so arriving early is recommended to get the best selection. Visitors also recommend ending the meal with the Olive Oil Cake, and trying the sake in a juice box for a fun touch. The place has a cozy vibe, and the flavor combinations and fluffy rice make the onigiris some of the best around. The drinks, including the Smokey Peach cocktail, are tasty and well balanced, adding to the overall enjoyment.
