Kalua pork & chicken katsu plate
Melanie M.

I came here after the D23 convention since I was staying nearby. It was around $16 for this choose 2 meats and combo of sides. I chose kalua pork and got the standard sides it came with. 2 scoops of rice, 1 scoop of mac salad, vegetables. You can customize it though. Next to the soda fountain machine are sauces such as teriyaki sauce, katsu sauce, hot sauce, soy sauce, etc. It seems like the food is made fresh because it took about 10-15 minutes for my food. Everything tasted good but the vegetables (broccoli & cabbage) had access water which made some of my chicken katsu soggy. I'd come back if I were visiting the area.

Food is delicious here i always order an extra macaroni. The chicken no matter how your order it is always good no matter what. I got the grilled chicken plate. Don't forget some extra teriyaki sauce. Prices are a bit steep here now!

Aloha BBQ Beef Plate for $12.99 Aloha Crispy Shrimp Plate for $12.99
Kay M.

This is a busy plaza. Came during a weekend night. The place gets packed during dinner time. Place appeared really clean. Ordered the Aloha BBQ Beef Plate for $12.99 and Aloha Crispy Shrimp Plate for $12.99. Each plate has salad and three scoops of rice. They came out hot. The BBQ Beef was really good, especially when you slathered it with the teriyaki sauce. They give you six pieces of Crispy Shrimps. The shrimps tasted much better with their signature Ono sauce. The sauces were near the soda dispenser and it's self served. Food came out hot and delicious. Wouldn't mind coming back.

Crispy Shrimp Appetizer
Till W.

The kid's menu is good. Each kid's menu selection came with a fruit pouch and apple juice! We were staying at a hotel nearby and this Hawaiian restaurant was across the street within walking distance. I wasn't too hungry so I got the Crispy Shrimp as an appetizer and my husband shared his other spam musubi with me. I really loved the circular shape and texture of my shrimp! Although my husband didn't like his fish entree that be picked, I liked what I picked! They were busy inside the restaurant, so it took awhile to get our order. I saw a lot of people come in from ordering online so to save time, you could consider doing the same. The cashiers were really friendly but one of them said my plastics forks were put in the bag, but we found none when we got to our hotel.

Chicken mix plate
Vanessa G.

I couldn't pass up the great weather yesterday, and enjoyed lunch on the patio. I had the chicken mix meal and subbed one rice scoop for an extra macaroni scoop. It was great. I took half home to go. The sauces are yummy. The service was quick. I got here right at 11 and there were already people ahead of me. Its always very busy here, so plan wisely. The inside seating is nice, but I prefer to sit outside. Parking can be a bit tricky depending on the time.

We decided to order food online from this location for pick last night after seeing a deal going around. We had pulled up and didn't realize so many other people had the same idea. Props to all the employees working this night, I couldn't believe so many people kept complaining about their food not being made on time. We all were just waiting for our names to be called out. There was such a big rush and the employees were still being so nice even though customers were getting frustrated with them. The food was so good and we got it for cheap too ! Although they have plenty of parking, it still can get hectic

When my Hawaiian bbq craving was kicking in and I had to look for a place near by, this popped up on my drive and it looked like I place I had to try out. They have all the goodies when it comes to Hawaiian bbq, the Mac salad, all the bbq chicken, beef and seafood. I decided to try the BBQ platter which comes with bbq chicken, beef and short ribs. Along with it, you get some rice and macaroni salad. The food came out shortly and it was good. Personally I just didn't think the food was hot since most of the items are par cooked when they stay out a little they get dry and hard on the inside. The flavor of the bbq beef was my favorite. The seating area inside is nice and clean, you will get your fix here for Hawaiian bbq, to me it just falls under the daily average when it comes to Hawaiian bbq.

Conveniently located near Disneyland & KHS and open until 9pm on the weekdays; I'm thankful for Ono! They have multiple locations and I have no issues with the price. Yes, portions could be bigger but I know the cost of everything has yet to go down. $14.49 for the chicken & beef combo which comes with the standard mac & rice. They do not have protein a la carte but I was able to add an extra portion of chicken to the meal for $3.80 as suggested by the cashier. No gripes here on customer service, they were very helpful and the transaction was smooth. Upbeat music, med volume, no tables to eat outside though...in case you need to decompress from Disney. Lol

Really? This is what you call a Spam Musubi (2 pcs)!?!??!
Cecille L.

$7 for an order that comes with 2 spam musubi. Sounds great, right? It's my daughter's regular item and she orders it all the time. Imagine our shock when we opened the box and saw two very tiny spam musubis. I have to say that they didn't skimp on the slice of spam, but for the rice? Where the heck was it? The whole thing was less than an inch thick. You can NOT serve a Polynesian a smidgen of rice in a spam musubi! So disappointing!!!

Tintin B.

Delicious and fresh hot teriyaki chicken with grilled chicken for kids meal the Keiki meal Deal. Perfectly paired with treetop mixed berry sauce and apple juice. The fried white fish goes well with their teriyaki chicken and rice and add some hot sauce for extra flavor with some kick. So Good. Eat it while it's still piping hot today. A local favorite with all the tourists and local residents too. Everything for under $25 bucks what a wonderful deal. Wash it down with your favorite Hawaiian drink and you will be very happy tonight. Enjoy.

They messed up our order, they were supposed to give us Hawaiian BBQ Mix, meaning a piece of Chicken katsu / chicken teriyaki/ short ribs, they gave us the short ribs combo, overall the customer service was good, the food was delicious. Pricing : Hawaiian bbq mix $16.49 Kalbi short ribs $16.99

Hawaiian BBQ chicken (burnt).

My favorite was BBQ chicken, however it was burnt in this place. Careless cooking!! I was dissatisfied.

Chicken & Beef Mix
Mia D.

Large portion sizes!! Both the chicken and the galbi were rich and savory and exactly what I needed. I am usually picky on my mac salad but this one was super good.

Tender and fatty underneath a layer of crisp. I didn't get to try the ribs but when I was cutting some up for my son it was falling off the bone! So it must have been fantastic. Tri-tip was okay, probably wouldn't get that again. It was chewier than expected. The tallow fries are full of flavor and addicting! But it's not just the food I love here. I love their entire seating area! They have so much room outdoor it's nuts. I kept turning a corner finding more seating and yet another play area for kids. There was a sand pit, Lego wall, spinning toy, drumming area, large size connect four, etc for kids to play with. It's so thoughtfully designed with families in mind and such a fun place to hang out! I also really appreciate that they have an allergen menu. It makes it so much easier to order safely.

This was my first time coming to this place so I am going to give the barbecue a chance on its own but I would not recommend the Banh Mi. It was soggy and missing the spice of green peppers and the sauces it came with just didnt match well at all. Service: I ll give it a 2nd chance. Maybe it was the time of day or just one of those days Ambiance: Really nice setup.

After trying the neighboring new bbq spot I won't name.. this places brisket is so much better. I love it here, juicy and great flavor. Some fatty bits but that's where the flavor comes from. and this short rib was bomb! The edges were a bit dry but I'm coming at closing time so I get it. FYI short rib is by weight $40/lb so it was about $50 for it. The sides I got were their macaroni and cheese 10/10 tastes home made! Onion rings were ok. Coleslaw is alright. Good for fiber! lol. I do like their beans and the blueberry bread. I love their nachos but they ran out of nacho cheese. Sad! I gota come back!

This time they were out of beef and spare ribs, but they still had baby back. (We got the last full rack) Sides are $7. Mac n cheese, blueberry cornbread muffins and onion rings are some of our favorites. You get 2 sides with the full rack, no sides with sandwiches. Today they were also out of nacho cheese but I'm not sure what that goes on? There's a dry erase board when you come in that tells you what's sold out. It's fun to chat with the other guests about what they came for and what they settled for. We always get it To Go now although they do have tables available.

Unfortunately, one of the most uncomfortable dining experiences I've ever had…read more I'm a big foodie and genuinely love trying new restaurants, so it's very obvious to me when a restaurant is cutting corners at the guests' expense. It was 95°F outside, and the dining room at Mr BBQ was unbearably hot. There was a sign in the waiting area mentioning the AC issue, but the waiting area was significantly cooler than the actual dining room, making it difficult to judge from the entrance just how uncomfortable it would be once seated. We were told the AC was running but that the ventilation from the grills was making the dining room hot. Regardless of the cause, we spent the entire meal sweating and feeling sick from the heat. When we finally walked outside, the 95°F outdoor air actually felt cooler than the dining room. They provided handheld fans, which was a nice gesture in theory, but the fans were visibly filthy and covered in food splatters. The bathrooms were also extremely dirty, with a sign mentioning plumbing issues. Plumbing problems don't excuse poor cleanliness. I understand that equipment issues happen, but this felt like a situation where the restaurant chose to keep operating rather than prioritize the comfort and cleanliness of its guests. For a restaurant charging what it does, that's disappointing. I will not be returning.

Just from looking at the food in Tony's Barbecue's Yelp photo gallery I knew I had to try this…read moreplace soon!! Located in an older shopping strip, Tony's is not to be overlooked. The inside of the restaurant looks like it may have been recently updated ~ it's nicely arranged with a good amount of seating. Orders are placed at the counter and your food is brought to your table when it's ready. Since it was our first visit, the lady at the front was happy to answer our questions and make suggestions. Everything is freshly made to order, so be prepared for a short wait. Plates come with a cup of egg drop soup (which came up piping hot and was very flavorful) that is served to be enjoyed while you wait for your main dish. My foodie friend ordered a fish dish with the Java rice. I chose the beef rib plate and also went with the Java rice. Siopao was a new featured item and apparently they're known for their bibingka, so I added those as well because at this point, why not right? While my friend enjoyed her fish, she said it could have used more seasoning and she wished that she didn't have to pick out the bones. My beef ribs were SOOOO good!! And the Java rice had a really nice flavor that went perfectly with the ribs. Since we had so much food, we split the siopao (a steamed pork bun), and I can't even begin to describe the bibingka ~ it was rich and delicious, with a slightly sweet & creamy filling. I'd have to have another one to better describe its flavor more accurately. I'm so glad to have discovered Tony's! I can't wait to go back!!!

Service is friendly and good is good!…read more The restaurant is tucked in a shopping center that's not visibly seen u less you're looking for it.

The beef ribs were really good, big and properly cooked, the kind of meat you actually talk about on the way home. The galbi was right there with them, savory and satisfying, and between the two we were set. The kids loved the spam musubi. That alone would have made the stop worth it for us. Spam musubi is one of those things that either works for kids or turns into a negotiation, and here there was no negotiation. They were happy, which meant the adults got to eat in peace for a minute. Dessert sealed it. They have a version of Dole Whip that tastes just like Disneyland. I am not being cute about that. Same soft, cold, pineapple hit you remember from the park, which is a wild thing to get after a plate of ribs in Anaheim. We finished full and already half-planning the next visit. One caveat: it was really smoky inside. Enough that I noticed it the whole meal. If I could give 4.5 I would, but I'm rounding up because the food was that good. Portions felt solid for a plate-lunch place, the vibe was casual and family-friendly, and nothing about the meal felt fussy. If you want Hawaiian-style BBQ with kids in tow, this is still an easy yes. Five stars.
