Tenori

Absolutely love this place! Affordable onigiri and the concept is so simple, yet so elevated. I have tried the salmon, bulgolgi, tuna, shrimp, and more--- my ultimate favorite is the salmon! It's hard to take a foodie pic of something so simple, but the flavor is there! Give this place a shot and you won't regret it!

It's amazing to see Tenori carry it's success for an affordable, portionable and amazing tasting onigiris and musubis within the Los Angeles area for others to enjoy. To simply put; each onigiri and musubi carries it's own weight in taste, enjoyment and profiles. Allow me to explain:Spicy Salmon; spicy with a kick! That taste of salmon is apparent and plentifulKBBQ; Savory, tender and has that korean bbq taste we all know and love at those ayce spotsPork Belly; Fatty and lean, perfect ratio and so soft in each biteTuna with Mayo; creaminess and airy fish taste go together? Well yeah it does actually, especially hereHoney Shrimp; well battered, sweet and crispy in every shrimp biteMentai; SPICY! but unique in it's own way especially when it's salty and savory in this fish eggy waySpam Musubi; you already know! Carries that same fulfilling taste and size!It's funny to see others enjoying it especially when you're in environment of other eateries, plenty of seating and more smells of different establishments while enjoying this cozy snack. It definitely feels unique compared to the other spots inside LBX. Let alone the order kiosks and onigiri makers are fast to each order! You shouldn't be waiting too long.

I've visited the Stanton Rodeo 39 location and this location is significantly better! You order on an iPad and they call your name. I ordered the 3 for $11: salmon, pork belly, honey shrimp. They're smaller than a traditional original but are nicely individually wrapped and had generous filling and seasoning! Rice is still work, everything is made to order. Salmon was my favorite, followed by pork belly then shrimp. I would stick with the fish options, meat was a bit dry and the shrimp was battered and fried so it was a bit much with the rice. Overall still yummy! Nothing like fresh warm rice and seaweed. Definitely recommend if you want something small inside the Hangar!

Got acquainted with Tenori thanks to a Yelp event. It's a good option for a quick and light lunch or a snack if you are shopping or doing errands in this area. However, it's not as good as Sunny Blue, in my opinion.

Located in the Hangar food hall at Long Beach Exchange near Long Beach Airport, Tenori serves made to order onigiri. They have been popping up with locations all over the place and, though I've seen it around, this was my first time trying it. I have to say that I liked it a lot more than I thought I would like it and I think it's a great addition to the food court.I got 3 onigiri for $11 and went with tuna with mayo, spicy salmon, and KBBQ (Korean BBQ) flavors to diversify my exposure to their menu. Here are my thoughts:1) The rice they use on the onigiri is served warm and it's cooked absolutely perfectly2) The fish is simple, but it does the job. I do not think that I'd get tuna with mayo again, but I might get spicy salmon or spicy tuna again. The fish resembles what you'd get in the can, but it does the job.3) I really liked the KBBQ onigiri as the meat, rice, and onion combo was nicely balanced and very satisfying.The food came out fast, it was very filling, and I felt extremely satisfied. I'm surprised how much I enjoyed it. I will likely come back to try more. I think I'd be more inclined to get more of the meat onigiri than the fish onigiri, but it's all pretty satisfying and the flavors are quite different. If you're at the Hangar, this is a pretty solid option!

I might think about rice balls everyday. Today I stopped in for the shrimp honey, but I wanted them all. Spicy salmon and tuna are so good. 3 for $11 is perfect. One cost me $4.41 for one. I love that nothing is raw, so I don't have to worry about any risk for me or the kiddos. My sweetie likes his without bonito flake, and there's an option to leave off. Self ordering and checkout. Cashless. Wait for a text and your name to be called. Ready fast.

Came here back in October. I guess it had been a while since I'd gone to the Hangar because it was my first time seeing it when I went that time. The menu is simple, clean and offers a good variety of flavors and proteins. The employee who took my order was very patient for this first timer. I went with the 3pc to try different things. I ordered the KBBQ, honey shrimp and tuna w/ mayo. They were all very flavorful. The rice was perfectly cooked and the insides were plentiful. It was the perfect, balanced bite of rice and fillings. I'll have to go back to try some of the other flavors.

If you're a fan of onigiri, this place is an absolute gem! The onigiri here is top-notch, with flavorful, perfectly seasoned rice that makes every bite a delight. The fillings are fresh and generous, adding even more to the experience.Parking is hassle-free with plenty of spaces available, so no need to stress about finding a spot. The seating area, located in the hangar, has a unique and casual vibe that's both spacious and welcoming. It's a great spot to enjoy your food, whether you're grabbing a quick bite or staying a bit longer.The customer service was also impressive--friendly and attentive staff who made sure everything was just right.

My friend and I stopped by this location after pilates and it was the perfect meal after a workout. We got spicy salmon and pork belly. Both were so flavorful and delicious. I was tempted to buy more. Next time I come, I want to try all the other flavors on the menu. The service was quick and the staff were very friendly. This place is located in LBX so it was like a marketplace. Lots of other restaurants in the area you can try as well

I absolutely love Tenori Onigiri. The tuna with mayo is my favorite, and I also have tried the honey shrimp. The service is quick, and they have self service computers to take the order with. They are not very big in size, and 3 of them is a good portion for a meal. This is located within the Hangar in Long Beach and there is plenty of parking outside and along the building.
