    Inside dining area

    This place used to have a few tables outside (year-round) and today, they are gone. I hope the tables will be back. We always enjoyed sitting outside with our fur baby enjoying their food. Hoping the business owner responds to this post. We will continue to eat here but less if we are unable to bring our pup.

    Chicken katsu.  So ono.
    Jane M.

    Great local style restaurant. Its nice to see Hawaiian island style food in Reno/Sparks. Hits they spot when you craving some poke or island style grinds. Love the chicken katsu here. Good portion. Nice to be able to get garlic rice for a small upcharge. But not great that you have to pay extra for mac salad. Normally, it comes standard. But it's all good. Service was friendly. Food came out fast, sad to hear can't call in take out orders anymore. But placed order online which was convenient.

    Cute restaurant, our food was made fresh and the portion sizes were generous. My husband got the short ribs, and they were delicious! I got the chicken katsu, it had a great crunch and the chicken was not dry. The macaroni salad was amazing! We will for sure go back and try more, the people working were friendly as well.

    Garlic Chicken and Garlic Rice

    I had never tried any Hawaiian food before, last week I tried the Garlic Chicken with Garlic Rice and this week I tried the Mochiko Chicken and Garlic Rice and WOW let me tell you! Amazing!! The service is FANTASTIC and the food is even better! The restaurant is so clean and welcoming!

    Loco One is a great quick little lunch meal. Chicken is always super crispy on the outside and super tender and juice on the inside. My go to is the Mochiko Chicken, it's the bees knees.... Mac salad that it comes with has always been tasty. Have had the kalbi a few times and it's always good as well. Service was great today, painless ordering, super fast fulfillment. Place is also nice and clean. For sure 5 stars for Hawaiian style in Reno, hands down my favorite spot when I'm in the mood.

    To be fair, we usually just order the Mochiko Chicken for take out, so I can't speak to the rest of the menu. The dining area is usually clean, but space is limited (half a dozen tables). We usually only deal with the one person, up front. Each time the person that we have dealt with has been friendly and efficient in taking and expediting our order to completion. The pasta salad that comes with the order is pretty tasty, but I am not an expert in pasta salad, so take it how you will. There are two scoops of white rice included. I would like a brown rice option, but one is not on their menu. The chicken itself is breaded and tends to be juicy. The toppings, sauce, and etc on the chicken give it a very nice flavor combination. The portions are pretty big. I could probably finish it one sitting if I didn't want to eat the rest of the day, so I tend to split it into two meals. The chicken re-heats well

    That's one of their medium Poké bowls.

    My wife and I discovered the location in midtown first, because it was adjacent to another place we like. Once we found the Sparks location was on the way home from work, we try to make it a weekly stop. Very impressed with the seafood, always fresh (Sierra Gold?). Their other ingredients also and great sauces. I've never felt the need to order the "large", since the medium is always a good meal. It reminds me of some places on Kauai. The staff are very friendly and will give you a sample if you haven't tried something yet (mango I wasn't sure of, but went nicely). They also have a great selection of drinks. Oh, besides the bowls, they do have other items. The musubi is always a good bite for breakfast the next day. Very much recommend.

    Came in for lunch and I asked for the most popular item on the menu and it turned out to mochiko chicken and garlic shrimp. The chicken was fried to perfection with it being crispy golden on the outside while tender and juicy on the inside. The sauce on it was deliciously addicting. The shrimps for the garlic shrimp were a lot bigger than I expected. Very crispy but I wasn't a fan of it compared to the chicken. All food comes with macaroni salad. The service was friendly. The place is set up like a poke bar where you order and go. There are a few tables for dine in. The place isn't aesthetically pleasing or anything but the tables were clean.

    This place blew me away. I visited for the first time and tried the garlic chicken, spam musubi, and created a poke bowl. All of it was fantastic but the garlic chicken was the star. It was incredibly juicy and flavorful and wasn't overly fried. The poke bowl was one of the best I've ever had, with fresh tasting ingredients. Highly recommend this place. It may be built more for to-go orders, but they also have a few tables set up inside. The service was great too, friendly and helpful for a first timer.

    mixed plate kalbi & mochiko crispy chicken
    Jeff P.

    small business lots of varieties to choose from plates to poki bowls ordered the mixed plate, kalbi and mochiko cripsy chicken which was about $18 after taxes the kalbi was good for being loco ono grilled and plain, the meat itself is tasty mochiko chicken is like a cripsy chicken with mayo ketchup like sauce which was okay wouldn't get that again would like to try the garlic chicken, chicken katsu, and poki on my next visit

    Regular Sized Poke Bowl
    Andy N.

    My partner and I dropped by Loco Ono for our final meal together since it was an easy grab-and-go poke and their pricing was fair. For $13, I was able to get a delicious tofu plant-based poke bowl with so many fixings. They offer all the usual toppings from edamame to seaweed salad, and all different kinds of sauces to amp up your bowl. I appreciated being able to select brown rice and mixed greens as my base for no additional charge. The regular size bowl was a large portion and was perfect for 1.5 meals, but of course I ended up eating it all at once. Our server was also super friendly and helpful. The moment I told her that everything would need to be vegan, she made sure to read out which sauces were vegan friendly without me asking, and even loaded up my bowl with so many veg toppings that it was bursting. The ambiance is fairly basic so I would consider this more for grab-and-go especially at night, but the price and quality of the poke is great and I would recommend to anyone.

    Awesome sign and drink selection
    Amy W.

    We came here for lunch as a family and enjoyed the variety of being able to order Poke bowls or their signature dishes. This and the ambiance truly represented the 'family' 'island' kitchen' motto.

Hardly anyone checks on you, drinks empty with hardly any refills, our chef at one point just disappeared at random and never came back leaving the work to his coworker. The unfortunate part is although I appreciate that the establishment is diverse, if you sit at the bar, you have the unfortunate experience of having most of your orders be wrong due to the lack of understanding English. At one point we got a mystery hand roll that wasn't even close to a Twister hand roll. The staff also chats among themselves and serves themselves often instead of ensuring customers are satisfied during their dining experience.

It was slightly more acidic. The curry made better for dipping. The service was quick and despite Fritzie W. changing her mind on a few items, they were still patient and courteous.

We were doing the all-you-can-eat option (and paying dinner pricing during lunchtime for the rolls we selected), so we were surprised by how the situation was handled. Instead of working with us, we were told they couldn't take the roll back because they would "lose money," and that we would be charged extra for it if they were to replace the roll. That response felt frustrating and unnecessary, especially given the circumstances. I get times are hard with money/ prices but where is the customer service in a response like that??? Not to mention the food didn't seem fresh all around; muscles were tough and rubbery. Praying I don't get sick. We ended up paying over $70 for very little food since we left without finishing, which made it even more disappointing.
