UniRice LIC /Japanese Okinawa Onigiri

- 27-17 42nd Rd Suite C3, Long Island City, NY 11101

In the dynamic landscape of New York City's food scene, sometimes a craving strikes for something that is both incredibly delicious and perfectly convenient. UniRice LIC, a specialized food court focused on Japanese Okinawa Onigiri, is the ideal answer to that need. We are a unique culinary destination that brings the authentic flavors of Japan's Okinawa region right here to Long Island City. Unlike a traditional sit-down restaurant, our food court model is designed to provide high-quality, freshly made food in a fast-casual setting. Our specialty, the Okinawa-style onigiri, is a handheld rice sandwich that is a complete and satisfying meal in itself, perfect for the busy New Yorker.

Our passion lies in creating healthy and delicious food options for our community. The onigiri at UniRice is a cross between a traditional sushi roll and a sandwich, making it both an innovative and practical meal. We take great care in preparing each onigiri with heartfelt dedication, focusing on the quality of our rice, seaweed, and fillings. From our classic Okinawa Classic Onigiri to more adventurous options like the Truffle Mushroom Onigiri and the Kimchi Beef Onigiri, our menu is a celebration of flavor and creativity. We pride ourselves on offering a perfect solution for those who want to eat well but have limited time, proving that fast food can also be fresh and nutritious.
