    I personally enjoy Ono. It is a great spot to through in the mix of take out or lunch stops when you need something different. Food is always pretty good and I cant get over the Mac Salad. Staff is standard for this type of establishment. Vibe is open modern with a touch of Hawaiian feel. Overall a great stop.

    Kalbi Short Ribs
    Lissa L.

    The yellow and blue interiors evoke images of the sea. Very cutesy and inviting. The decor is minimal but useful. The staff is friendly and the food is great. We got 2 kalbi short ribs and 1 garlic white fish for $54. Not bad! In this economy, that's amazing value for money.

    Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Plate, $11.99 prior to tax
    Vic C.

    This Ono Hawaiian BBQ eatery is located in the same plaza at Barnes & Noble and Victoria Secrets. They are on the opposite side and much closer to Sam's Club. My husband and I made online orders to pick up our meals this past Monday. My husband made his own order and I ordered the following for both my mother and I to share: Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Plate, $11.99 prior to tax- I figured my mom would prefer a grilled version of chicken, so I ordered this with her in mind. This entree comes with a large portion of chicken, three scoops of steamed white rice and a side of salad that is mostly shredded cabbage, carrots, purple onion and lettuce. Both my mom and I really liked the chicken and so did my husband (since he ordered a plate too). The salad was nice and hearty. I liked the flavor of it and prefer a green salad to be made with cabbage so that is can last for another day. Chicken Katsu Plate, $11.99 prior to tax- I ordered this for myself, which came with a lot of chicken. It also came with three scoops of steamed white rice and salad. If you want Katsu sauce or teriyaki sauce, you can fill up the plastic cups with them by the pick up area. I thought the chicken was pretty good. My mom also likes the chicken. The white rice for both this plate and the other one was cooked perfectly. --------------------------- (Total= $26.44 after tax) Our meals were ready when we came in. But we did wait a minute or two since the employee at the register, had her back towards us since she was looking at the kitchen. I think she may have been waiting for an order to be completed so she could pack it. The portion of food is quite a lot, which really surprised me. With these two plates, it could easily serve 3- 4 people (and yes we had leftovers). I have definitely underestimated Ono Hawaiian BBQ and would definitely consider ordering from them again in the future.

    Spam musubi
    Nevin A.

    Ono Hawaiian BBQ has Perfectly delicious Hawaiin plate  menu. The quantity is always huge and the taste is exceptional! I ordered the Island White Aloha plate and the Crispy Shrimp Aloha plate. Both of them were scrumptious and appetizing, and their sauce will add a nice kick to the flavor. I also orderd their crispy Crab Rangoon which is one of my favorite there. The place is always clean. It is busy with customers whenever you go , In addition to numerous pickup orders. The service is always fast despite their busyness. It is really a nice place to stop at and enjoy the savory food, fast and friendly service plus the affordable price.

    Seeing what Fresh Young Coconut is all about

    We always seem to get out of the house in that weird time of day between lunch and dinner. Too late and yet too early to eat something but - so musubi has become our go to snack when out and about. Ever the foodie my daughter chose a young coconut as her drink...and it was good, refreshing, and somewhere between savory and lightly sweet -- enough to hydrate and refresh at the same time. Service was prompt and the restaurant was tidy and clean. The musubi didn't disappoint- the rice was fresh, fluffy, and sticky; the spam was perfectly savory with slightly crispy edges. *chefs kiss*.

    My katsu chicken. Really dry & kind of hard!
    Jenn R.

    Last time I went the meal was excellent and it was bbq chx version of Ono Keikei meal. This time, not so good. Ordered Katsu instead. OMG! Dry and nasty as heck!! Do NOT order the Katsu from here! Bleah! It was also the most miniscule serving of rice ever. I know it's a kids meal but there was a big space in the box. They could have easily given a bit more rice. The young woman at the counter was nice enough but management needs to clue their teams in about offers. She did not know about the online meal offer. This is why I got the KeiKei meal. No clear info on the $7 meal offer.

    the front of the restaurant

    As a fast food chain my expectations were low. I was very hungry, far from home and didn't want to spend a lot of money at a steakhouse or expensive restaurant. This day I think my iron was low because I was I was strongly craving beef but not a burger or anything like that. I decided to check Ono Hawaiian out since they claimed to have short ribs. 9.5 out of 10 only because they were tough close to the bone. But for the most part they were tender, flavorful, and a decent portion at a decent price. For 15 bucks I got a full dinner meal of short ribs, steamed cabbage, rice and macaroni salad that was freshly made. I was pleasantly surprised. I was really impressed with the macaroni salad because most chains serve premade when it comes to cole slaw or macaroni salad and has a bitter tattle and mushy texture. This was close to my mom and grand moms Mac salad. It was clean and plenty of seating and my order was hot and ready by the time I came from washing my hands. I will certainly order again.

    Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Mini Meal
    Jon R.

    Hadn't been in a while, went in and the ladies at the counter were friendly and inviting wasn't too busy, food came out at a decent pace. The chicken katsu was good and the bbq chicken was tender. The beef was alright just a little stringy. Sauces tasted great, and the hot sauce was good. We came in because of a handed out coupon for a bowl / mini meal

    the front of the restaurant
    Ray M.

    Nice, clean and large location. Employees are very friendly and helpful and the real reason why I was her was the food. The food is soooo good and fresh. No matter what you order, as each dish will definitely leave you craving a second serving IF the first serving didn't fill you up which is rare.

    These two ribs were hidden underneath the 3rd good rib with meat. Look at how much fat to meat portion.
    Jennie W.

    If I could only put zero stars, then I would. It's funny how whoever prepared the food put half a scoop of each rice, half scoop of macaroni salad. And the meat that was served was half fat. It is not edible. And I would like to know which ever cook cooked this if they would feed that to their family or kids? Would they eat that? Also, the fact that I know the front cashier is supposed to double check the food I'm surprised they didn't notice how skimpy they scooped the rice and the macaroni salad. I've been coming here for a long time and every single time I order the ribs, they never get it right it's either too burned or too fatty. I'm pretty sure it's not about throwing away food, but they need to start bringing it up to upper management or something because that's not right serving the customers this. I cannot comment about the ambience since I did not eat, and it was a to go order.

    My order said no rice mac salad on one veges ok. $38 for not reading comments!!! Shame on you Ono!!!

I appreciate how they're also creative with what they had by taking their proteins and offering them via stir fried rice or stir fried in lo mien. BBQ Beef lo mien: It's a nice concept that heavily leans on your enjoyment of Chinese fast food lo mien. Assuming that is something you're into (or at least tolerate), I feel that this place does a great job of remixing their BBQ beef. The beef is of decent quality, it's not too salty, and the chewiness is reasonable for a stir fry. The garnish adds a bit more body to the plate overall. BBQ Chicken: I'm happy to report that the BBQ chicken can compete with the Hawaiian BBQ chains around the city. Good glaze, and good flavor within the glaze. Macaroni Salad: It's either of the same quality and taste as its better established compeititon, or a half step below. Bottom line is that the side is still good. Service: You order, pay, and they'll let you know when the food is ready. Very straightforward. Ambiance: Classic fast food feel. Nothing to call home about.

There's parking throughout the plaza, but…read moreit was packed when we arrived and we had to drive around a little before finding an open spot. This is a small food-court-style spot. You order at the counter, and if you walk farther inside, there's a shared seating area with tables for the different restaurants in the plaza. We found a spot to sit while we waited, and they gave us a buzzer to let us know when our food was ready. It took less than 10 minutes, so it was a super quick and easy meal. I ordered the Garlic Butter Shrimp Plate with a side of Chicken Katsu and it was SO good. The shrimp was incredibly crispy and packed with garlic butter flavor. The katsu and macaroni salad were great as well. It was simple, but everything about it hit the spot. Overall, I really enjoyed Honu Hawaiian BBQ. The food came out quickly, the plate was delicious, and it was such an easy casual meal. I'll definitely be back!

Onto our food -- the chicken was lacking flavor, I'd rather go to Ono Hawaiian BBQ which has way more flavor. The salad changed from shredded cabbage to mixed greens. The beef short ribs are much thinner and no longer pre-cut. The teriyaki sauce is worse too - thick sauce, vinegar/sour flavor -- not sure if it's gone bad but definitely not the thin teriyaki flavor sauce they used to have. I cannot comment on the beef ribs as we did not order it but it seems everything went downhill and I would not recommend this place anymore. The clerk that assisted us was nice and friendly so +1 star.

They did provide individual forks and knives, but they did not provide any serving spoons or catering utensils for the trays of food. We asked very nicely because with large office orders like this, we've received serving utensils in the past. For a $1,500 order meant to feed a large group, it seems reasonable to expect the basic utensils needed to actually serve the food, or at least to be clearly told ahead of time that they would not be included. It caused a major inconvenience during our event because we had trays of food with nothing to serve them with. If you're placing a large order here for an office, party, or event, make sure you specifically ask for serving spoons and catering utensils, because apparently they are not automatically included even with a $1,500 order. For the amount of money we spent, the lack of basic serving utensils was extremely frustrating and disappointing and will not be back or recommended this place .
