    Joes Sampler
    Ishmael I.

    One day while doomscrolling on instagram, an ad popped up for this place and it stuck with me. Shortly afterwards, and research of the menu and location I decided that poke was on the menu. I live in Everett and so it was going to be a little drive. Nothing crazy but a good jaunt outside of my usual grounds. Upon arrival i noticed it was located on the corner of a small strip mall. Ono Authentic Hawaiian Poke. It looks very unassuming until you open the door. Just the vibes and energy walking in there were seemed like what it might feel debarking the plane when you arrived to the big island. At least that what I gather since I've yet to experience it. But man, this place is small inside but the atmosphere feels big. Great music playing. Packed with patrons. And the poke counter just stacked with deliciousness. I've been here 3 times to get a good idea of the flavors and varieties that have. And even though I have my favorites , everything I have tried is by far incredible. It's fresh. The quality is amazing. And the flavors of each individual selection is stand alone but not overwhelming or smothering to the point you feel you can't taste the fish. It actually accentuates the flavor of each fish and brings about an undercurrent of flavor and subtle umami that I never experienced at any other poke spot. My first visit I had the large spicy Hawaiian tombo. Sided with macaroni salad. And an order of the same but on the bites, or poke bombs. I got my food to go and ate in my car. It was the most beautiful looking poke I've had. And the bite was just scrumptious. The rice was cooked perfectly. Now I always thought it was weird to have warm rice with cold raw fish but I finally figured out why. It just made the dish so much better. My second visit I ordered a regular but decided to get Joes sampler. I had a little bit of everything. Seaweed salad. Cucumber salad. Edamame. Scallops, which turned out to be one of my top favorites. Salmon. Tuna. I highly recommend getting the sampler for f you are undecided but open to trying everything. My last visit was my definite deciding choice in terms of what my go to order will be for future trips. I had the regular but half limu traditional and they don't do scallops on Saturday so I opted for the octopus. I'm not a fan of octopus per se, and more so for the respect of the animal itself versus flavor and texture but it was pretty good. I won't order it again because my go to from here on out will be the traditional limu, scallops, macaroni salad and seaweed salad. Next time you want to try or get poke, head on down to Edmonds and hit this place. You'll be satisfied.

    Incredibly fresh poke with delicious marinations!! I wish I lived closer to this spot because I would go so often if that were the case. It's a laid back spot that is perfect for a casual lunch. Seating is limited so it's probably best to grab it to go. I got the spicy tuna and spicy salmon options which were both insanely buttery and well seasoned. Also don't skip the Mac salad!!

    Got some takeout poke on a nice summer day. The food was quick to be served. You could see all the meat and side options on the bar which was helpful when ordering. The bowl had a large portion of fish and was very filling.

    Pretty damn good hawaiian style poke. The poke bombz were very tasty (inari is the best) but not worth the price at $13.5 for 3. The medium poke bowl I think was worth the price at $21. It was a ton of fish and left me very full and satisfied. It's nice to pick one side too. The mac salad was good. Would go back. I got Albacore and Spicy Ahi. Both rocked. I also tried traditional ahi and didn't like it as much as the spicy.

    After having this on my list for a long while, I finally made my way up to try this place out. And for a Saturday afternoon around 1230 this place was packed. And apparently rightfully so. The parking lot is pretty small and you may have to wait for parking. There are about 8-10 tables on the Inside and additional seating on the outside. You place your order at the register and can see the fish being prepared for poke. Even as long as the line was, once you place your order your food comes out pretty fast. Poke bowl comes with two poke options and one side. An additional serving of poke is $4. Each additional side is $1. So if you like your poke bowls loaded, it can get pretty expensive. Your base options are salad or rice. The poke itself is fresh and delicious. The tako is some of the best I have had. If I was in the area and had a hankering for poke, I'd definitely come back. You can tell they utilize quality ingredients. And it's obvious that their poke is always fresh.

    Preparing the Fish

    I visited Ono Poke on a Saturday afternoon to pick up my preorder for Butter Bandit and decided I might as well also get a bowl of poke. This was at 12:30PM and there was a long line out the door and around the corner, taking almost 30 minutes. I had previously visited on a rainy winter weekday for lunch and there wasn't a line at all. What a difference the day and weather can make! While in line we could see the chefs cutting up ahi fresh right in front. The longer line gave me time to chat with the owner as he was trimming off the skin and other bits. I learned that tuna skin is much tougher than salmon skin so can't be eaten like salmon skin chips. He also said that the trimmed parts can be taken for free if anyone wants them. Apparently they make good crab bait! Medium w/ Rice, Traditional Limu Ahi, Hamachi, Mac Salad ($21.50) - I love the Hamachi poke mix. It's fresh, tender, and buttery fish tossed in a creamy and slightly spicy sauce, filled with little briny pearls and plenty of aromatics giving a super umami bite. The Limu Ahi is very fresh as well - I mean, it's sliced right in front, and there's so much turnover of the food that's it's pretty much guaranteed fresh. The tuna is fresh and tender, but there's noticeably more sinew compared to the hamachi. The Mac Salad is also really good. It's super creamy and the macaroni isn't overcooked so it still has some bite. The rice is unfortunately the weakest item in the bowl. It's a little too dry for my tastes and is only lightly tossed with rice vinegar, giving a tangy flavor. Overall all the poke is fresh, the flavors all meld together into a delightful balanced bite, and the sauces are not overwhelming. Ono Poke definitely serves some great poke!

    Regular with Spicy Tuna and Hamachi

    Ono had been on my hit list for ages and now that I've finally been, I'm so sad that I don't live closer to Edmonds. They share parking spots with the rest of the plaza and it's not difficult to find a spot if you're willing to walk just a few extra feet. Went for an oddly timed meal on a Saturday around 4PM and they still had all their poke options. There are about 6-8 tables in the store, but quite a few folks take their meals to go. It's definitely not the cheapest meal option, but the poke is absolutely delicious and the fish is unbelievably fresh I tried the Shoyu Salmon, Spicy Tuna, and the Hamachi; all of them were incredible. The Hamachi is only available on weekends and the fish is so fatty it almost melts in your mouth with the creamy and tangy sauce. The Shoyu Salmon is incredibly succulent and just a classic knocked out of the park with a great balance of fresh, salty, and slightly sweet. I'm normally a tuna hater, but the texture is excellent with a nice bite and great spice level.

    Ahi Tuna Poke Bom
    William H.

    Start off by saying their poke is really fresh. I ordered a regular with Scallops and Albacore with seaweed as side. The sweet taste of the seaweed balanced out the spicy of the Albacore. You get a lot of rice with decent amount of poke. You should be full at the end of the meal. I could not finish all my rice. I don't think getting a large worth the extra $$ as not much extra poke unless you want more rice. Price is a bit high in my opinion given amount of poke one gets but poke is fresh. Also no toppings like other poke places. I also got a Ahi Tuna Poke BOM and it was too much. That would be a good meal by itself. Once again, not much Poke but a good amount of rice wrapped in a sweat tofu skin.

    The best poke spot in Seattle is a toss-up between Ono and Hi-Life. Ono just gets all their sauces right. My favorites have to be their tuna and scallops. Their inari bombs are also so good - quick and easy. The one thing I didn't really enjoy was their crab salad. It was more of a coleslaw with a little bit of crab.

    Poke Bowl (plate)

    Ono is one of our Edmonds gems. Downside is there's always a long line which goes to show the quality and freshness. Solid amount of seating but fills up fast. Another tough pill to swallow is the prices being a bit higher but again, somewhat justified with high quality, decent quantity, and overall delicious. Their rotating menu keeps things interesting but it sucks when a favorite fish isn't available for that week! Ample parking because it's located in a large plaza, but may have to park a little further away in the plaza because of the amount of people. They also have a Kingston shop, so both locations are convenient across the ferry.

    Small Poke with extra protein
    Geo N.

    Ono strikes again! Food & drink: (5/5) I don't think I have ever gone to Ono Poke and it not being a 5/5. This time around was no different. My partner and I stopped by on a Sunday evening looking to fulfill our poke nacho fix. Since it was near the end of the day, they only had two types of spicy ahi left which wasn't an issue for us at all. We got the nachos with spicy ahi, mac salad, and an extra side of edamame on top. SO delicious. Their poke with rice is great but something about the crunch of chips with the fresh fish just hits different. My partner got a can of lilikoi passion fruit juice which was sweet and perfect for cutting thru the savoriness of the nachos. Service: (5/5) Again, it's always a 5/5 here. The team at Ono is incredible kind and welcoming. They make coming here such a treat (on top of the food of course)!

    spicy salmon and scallop poke
    Kelly T.

    This is genuinely the best poké I've ever had in my life (I haven't been to Hawaii yet, lol). I am a poké addict, and I just about will stop by at any poké restaurant just to try it. This spot was recommended to me by a friend. The interior of the restaurant was warm and very decorated. There were a lot of Hawaiian cultural references, which added to the ambiance. The staff were so friendly and very helpful. And despite it being super busy the day that I went, they were all patient with each customer. I had a few samples of their fish, and let me tell you, the fish is FRESH. I am usually picky with tuna because they tend to have a fishy taste, but Ono's tuna was NOT fishy at all. Also, all the different flavors of poké were seasoned PERFECTLY. I got the spicy salmon and the scallop poke. They were both buttery and tender. The flavors did not overtake the natural flavor of the fish, and the sauce was seeped deep into the salmon; the same goes for the scallop. Sometimes at poké restaurants the sauce will sit on top of the fish, but NOT HERE. This place is genuinely SO SO good. I highly recommend coming to this place and trying their poké! + This place is so good that I am willing to make the trip out to this place if I am ever back in this state.

Onigiri Issues - The tuna onigiri was spicy - chili flakes in the rice. On the phone, the owner told me this was normal, and that the "spicy option" was extra spicy. As a first time customer, how would I have known that (if it's true)? Every "regular" onigiri I have ever had is white sushi rice + filling. The cashier never mentioned it had any spice, and if she had, I wouldn't have ordered it. Poke bowl issues - The biggest issues were that the salmon bowl, which again I asked for regular for, and more spice/chili flakes. When asking about this, owner had no comment. Additionally, the avocado I paid extra for ($2.50 for maybe 4 small slices) was black and old. Inedible. Offered to send a photo, Owner declined and nothing to say about the old avocado. Things I didn't get to mention - The rice has extremely hard, not "day old sushi rice," but too hard to even eat. The portion is so small for the price. Didn't even fill up half of the to-go bowl container. Service - Owner was extremely rude on the phone. He asked me what the issue was, and then when I started to explain, he says, "well I know, what do you want me to do?" He'd ask a question, not like my response and cut me off by saying I wasn't letting him speak. Then, when I stopped trying to answer his question, he wouldn't talk until I started talking again. Told me I couldn't get a refund unless I drove back to the store with the food, which I am unable to do because of work. He declined accepting any photos of the food. Terrible food, terrible experience. (Photo of avocado and the red flakes mixed in with the tobiko)
