Asahi Imports - Austin

The kombu onigiri is truly delicious and is definitely the standout option among their vegan onigiri choices. I recommend ordering it in advance as the kombu aroma may not always be available. If the basket is empty and they are already taking orders, you can also request it at the Onigiri counter.

Northside is a perfect place to indulge in Japanese cuisine, offering a taste of Tokyo right here in Austin.

The kombu onigiri is delicious, it is definitely the best from their vegan onigiri options. I would suggest ordering the onigiri before the time since the kombu taste is not always in stock. If the basket is empty and you are already in the store, you can also ask it at the Onigiri counter. Updated by previous rating on 2022-06-05

Northside's abreuvoir to quench a craving for Japanese ryōri the dawning of a new day brings Tokyo taste to Austin.

I absolutely adore the kombu onigiri, Gomoku Inari, and other food at this restaurant. They consistently offer fresh ingredients, reasonable prices, a wide variety of tofu options, a great selection, and daily specials. It's the perfect spot to stock up on everything you need to make your own onigiri and Inari at home. While some of the pre-made dishes may not be vegan, they are suitable for vegetarians and pescatarians. Be sure to visit their website for a complete list of onigiri flavors, bento boxes, and daily specials! I highly recommend placing a pre-order as they tend to sell out quickly.
