Dorami

This is our second time trying Dorami, and it was even better than the first! The first visit, I was a little disappointed with the size and price of the Onigiri. Don't get me wrong, it was delicious, but I just wished it were bigger. Fast forward to last Thursday, and we decided to give it another shot. We were pleasantly surprised by the size of the Onigiri! This time it was huge and definitely worth the price! I tried the Beef Gyudon, and it was so flavorful. I also ordered the salmon again, and the flavor was on point as always. My husband got the Chicken Teriyaki and really enjoyed it too. The wait for our orders was a bit long, but totally worth it! I think I'll give it another month before I start stalking them again for their next location, too much carbs! LOL!

Absolutely loved trying this food truck!! Thanks to Yelp and Instagram, I've had my eye on Dorami. When they were parked near our apartment recently, I knew we had to try them. I tried the shrimp teriyaki (had 7 large shrimp in it) and the shiitake mushroom onigiri. My boyfriend tried the turmeric chicken teriyaki and a thai tea. It was about $45 for everything. The smells wafting over from the truck had our stomachs growling. It took about 10-15 minutes for it to be ready and our bag was heavy! The onigiri packaging was adorable. I opened it up and was surprised how HUGE it was. I have never seen one this big. It was great. The thai tea was sweet and creamy and a really nice big cup for only $4.50. My shrimp teriyaki was delicious! So flavorful, fresh fried rice, and nice crisp vegetables. The eggrolls that came on top were a nice surprise and were soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. Overall we both loved our meals here and were really impressed! We will definitely try them again soon!

Some people chase tornados.I think those people are kinda crazy.I chase food trucks.Wait. Am I the crazy one?Let me explain.For a few months now, I've been obsessed with onigiri. What is onigiri you ask? Well, basically it's a big ball of sushi rice. Wrapped in nori (seaweed) and shaped kinda like a pyramid. Oh and usually includes some other type of filling, like salmon. Or plum. Or even spam.SPAM!I first saw onigiri on social media and thought, "I have got to try that delicious looking morsel!" The problem though, is that it is really difficult to find. Not too many sushi restaurants serve onigiri.The answer (at least in Jacksonville)? Food trucks.Including Dorami.Now, while Dormai does appear on Yelp, there isn't a lot of information about it on the web. I don't believe the owners have a website. But they do have a Facebook page. And that is where I found the truck's schedule last week.Thus, the chase.And where did we find Dorami? Actually in an apartment complex off of southside. Maybe a little weird, but hey, I needed my onigiri fix!Dorami does have several kinds of onigiri. Both meat and vegetarian options. My wife (who joined me on my chase) and I decided to sample several of them. We ordered: salmon soy furikaki, spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, soy glazed shiitake mushroom and pickled plum (ume).The woman taking the orders was very friendly, and after you order she gives you a little pager that lets you know when your order is ready.Now these onigiri were larger than others that I've tried. They do come in all sizes and sometimes the nori doesn't cover all the rice. But for these, the rice was warm and delicious and the nori, which was wrapped all around, was somewhat successful in keeping it all together.The fish we got was all cooked. I don't know if they serve any with raw fish, but just something to keep in mind. The flavor of the salmon and tuna was great. The shrimp tempura was very good as well, but I'm not sure I would order it again. The mushroom was the surprise of the bunch. It was really, really good. I personally was not a fan of the plum, but my wife really liked the odd mix of salty, sour and sweet. The onigiri did tend to unravel after taking a bite, so be prepared to get a little messy and have to use your fingers or other utensil to eat all of that onigiri goodness. Onigoodness!!Overall it was a fun experience to find the truck and I definitely recommend onigiri and the Dorami food truck to anyone who likes sushi.Oh, and next time I'm trying the fries!

I got notified that the Dorami food truck was coming so it intrigued my interest. The menu was limited but that is expected from a food truck. I had the turmeric chicken teriyaki and the spicy tuna onigiri. I've never tried turmeric chicken teriyaki it was different and tasted okay. It came with fried rice that tasted different too. The onigiri was the best thing on the menu but pricey at $6. Service was good and fast.

My favorite food truck in Jacksonville! Not only is the staff really nice, but where else can you find origami in Jax? Definitely go to try them every time they're in my area!

I'm obsessed with the onigiri and Thai tea but everything they make is delicious. Amazing food and even better people.

I recently hosted a birthday party and had Dorami cater their delicious Onigiri, and it was a huge hit! From start to finish, their service was impeccable. They delivered the food right on time for a small fee, and their communication was top-notch. The team was incredibly kind and made the whole process so easy. The Onigiri was fresh, flavorful, and enjoyed by all my guests! They have a filling option for everyone! I highly recommend Dorami for any event--whether it's a birthday, gathering, or special occasion. You won't be disappointed!

The food was delicious and service was very fast. I will be making it a ritual to grab a bite to eat from here every week!
