The Easter deals here are fantastic. I got the grilled fish aloha plate with salad for $8 through the special offer, and the grilled fish is my new fav protein here. It was spiced pretty generously and quite flavorful, I didn't even feel the need to add any other sauces or toppings. Quick service and massive portions, this lasted two meals. Very convenient location near gyms, grocery stores, etc read more

Ono Hawaiian BBQ - Grilled fish aloha plate with salad - Hawaiian Near Me - San Jose, California

Where Ono lacks a little bit in flavor, I feel like it makes up with consistency. They're always super reliable. Their meats from the chicken to the ribs to the beef is always cooked like pretty on the dot. So I'm never disappointed when I have Ono's. I do like Olilo's on Hostetter a lot more because of the flavors but Ono's is a super super reliable everywhere we go. Unlike L&L BBQ which is pretty garbage depending on which location you go to, We always get the mixed barbecue late here and it's always good. Their portions are generous and we can never finish it. I love that it comes with so much vegetables. read more

Generous portions, friendly service, food always tastes fresh. So nice to get plates that include veggies without having to order a la cart!

It's been awhile since I've come here but the bf wanted to come. It was just okay. Service took some time to get our order. Food was okay. Could use some seasoning. By bf enjoyed the teriyaki sauce over the katsu sauce. I preferred the tartar sauce especially with the fish. The veggies were bland. The Mac salad I liked as it wasn't too much mayonnaise. Wished there were more carrots. Most of the tables were occupied when we went. Some of the wall paper was peeling. Definitely needs an updating. read more

Ono Hawaiian BBQ - Chicken mini meal Chicken Katsu Mini Meal and Island White Fish plate - Hawaiian Near Me - San Jose, California

IMHO We arrived shortly before 11:30 in hopes of beating the lunch crowd. We ordered two plate entrees to-go; the Korean Beef Short Ribs, and the BBQ Mixed Plate. Each plate comes with two scoops of rice and one scoop of mac salad. I asked if my entree could have it in reverse; one scoop of rice and two scoops of mac salad, and they happily complied! We waited maybe 10 minutes for our food, which was negligible. While we waited, we watched the lunch order line grow, which was a good sign. Don't forget to grab container cups of the teriyaki or katsu sauces! The food portion was generous as I would expect, filled with a nice layer of steamed cabbage/broccoli on the bottom, and topped with the protein choices. The Kalbi was tasty, tender and easy to cut. (I hate fighting with my food! LOL) Food was plentiful enough for two separate meals for two. I can't believe I didn't take any pictures of my food! LOL Friendly service and clean premises are a plus! read more

I really like this place. My husband got the BBQ mix plate and was a big fan of the beef short rib. The meat was incredibly tender and was nicely sweet & salty. I ordered the mini chicken plate without the mac salad, and it was fantastic. The chicken was well seasoned and juicy and hot. Each bite was flavorful and satisfying. We also tried the spam musubi, which had a perfect ratio of rice to savory spam. The spam was nicely caramelized, giving it a slightly sweet and salty flavor that paired well with the soft rice. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. The service was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant was impressively clean inside, making for a comfortable dining experience. read more

Tried this place for the first time and i was extremely disappointed. The spam musubi were small and the seaweed was so chewy and hard to rip off when taking a bite. The tase was just alright but the seaweed completely ruined it. Then i tried the chicken katsu it was extremely dry. Maybe if i douse it in katsu sauce it might make it better but nooooo they didn't even give me katsu sauce.... So all i got was one piece of katsu and box loaded with vegetables broccoli and cabbage 1 scoop of rice and macaroni. I guess it's a good thing they didn't give me too much chicken because it was too dry to eat. L&L is down the street it's more pricey but it doesn't miss won't be coming back here! read more

They offered an $8 special for the Seafood Aloha Plate for the entire month of April. Choice between the Crispy Shrimp, Lava Shrimp, or Island White Fish. My wife and I always enjoy the Island White Fish: 3 pieces of Island White Fish, 3 Scoops Rice with 1 Side Fresh Mix Salad! read more

Honestly extremely disappointed with how bad the customer service and portions have become here. Ordered a combo plate and the NPC taking the order insisted that Mac salad was not included (completely wrong, have gotten Mac ONLY at times with same order) So we ended up having to order 2 sides of Mac salad... and they gave us spam musubi?? The portions of meat are ridiculously small for $17, attaching a photo of what we got Yeah, you guys need to get your shi together. Never coming back again except to get my refund for the Mac salad, y'all deserve to be closed down permanently read more

For a chain, usually you know the food will be consistent. The price will be reasonable. People will typically not eat at the location. And it's really just more cookie cutter. But sometimes, somethings stand out at a particular chain that makes just a bit better than other "ordinary" chains. Ono is consistent. There are no surprises. But at this particular location? Angel is pretty awesome. Super nice and provides great service. He has been attentive and pleasant. Made my visit to Ono pretty great. read more

Place is located in a plaza so there is ample parking. Ordered take out of Hawaiian BBQ Chicken. Chicken was tender and tasted pretty good, plus points for packing me extra sauce! Staff were kind. Only con I can think of is the small protein portion, for the price I wish there would be more protein. read more

Food: I went with delivery since I was unable to leave work. ordered the Chicken mix plate with Chicken Katsu & Teriyaki Chicken. I also ordered Spam Masubi to try. I personally wasn't impressed. The Chicken Katsu was rather dry, the Teriyaki Chicken was great, and the Spam Masubi was lackluster. It missed the mark on flavorful. The side veggies offered a heap of cabbage with 2 small broccoli. The macaroni salad tasted like biting into an onion. If this is your thing, then this is definitely for you, but it all missed the mark for my tastebuds. read more

Ono Hawaiian BBQ - Spam Masubi, Chicken Katsu, & Teriyaki Chicken - Hawaiian Near Me - San Jose, California

Unremarkable, but ok for a quick fix. Ordered the island spice grilled fish during their random $7 plate specials. Originally it would be $17 for the meal. Definitely not worth it at $17. Fish was barely seasoned, and quite mushy. It wasn't flaky like I'd expect fresh fish texture to be. Ordered a side of Mac salad that was also unremarkable. The mayo had an off taste and was quite watery, as if it was old. L&L still reigns supreme when it comes to Hawaiian bbq chains. Ono just can't hold a candle to their competition. read more

Ono Hawaiian BBQ - Ono Family Meal - Hawaiian Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm so glad I looked up a chicken place that was tropical nearby me and I was lucky to have come across this little gym!! I had no idea they had fresh young coconut and I bought one as takeout before I realized I would literally have to carry it in a bag as I drive! Lol The young coconut was delicious and fresh, and I was able to scrape out all the coconut meat at my house! I got the chicken combo for my friend and she loved every bite of it and she's a picky foodie let me tell you!! She ate it over two days and she was really surprised that the flavor stayed as she reheated it on the stove top the second day! My barbecue chicken, luckily had no monosodium glutamate in it, which I'm highly allergic to! Being a foodie this sucks, and I can never eat Asian, soy sauce, or different Latin dishes because of this! I'm so happy I found this little gem of a place and my server was incredibly helpful, and I love the open atmosphere and relaxing Hawaiian music. They played in the background!! I've been back twice since this last visit, and I will be back again! Oh yeah, and my son, who is super picky, loved their spam musubi which is a side!! read more

After relocating to DTSJ, I am so glad there is a Ono Hawaiian BBQ nearby! I definitely prefer Ono's over L&L's because of the quality and flavor. I got the bbq katsu mix and a side of crispy shrimps. The bbq katsu mix is bbq chicken, bbq beef, and chicken katsu. Also, I was able to customize the meal; I did 1 scoop rice and a double scoop of Mac salad. Plus they did give a good amount of steamed cabbage. I was surprised that the side of crispy shrimps were good; it was lightly battered plus these shrimps were pretty large in size. Perfect to do a grab and go and meal is large enough to split into two meals (at least for me). Definitely will be visiting this location as it's fairly close to home and super convenient. read more

This is my local Hawaiian restaurant and they do it well. Being from the Bay area, I've been blessed/spoiled with not only having Hawaiian neighbors, but access to a half dozen Hawaiian restaurants. The fast-casual nature of Ono means no long waits with friendly staff and cooks spending a lot of time catch-up and chatting with friends instead of cooking. A call ahead for pick-up or strolling in and ordering at the cashier means food will come out in under 10 min. A very fast way to judge Hawaiian food is in 3 dishes, the short ribs (better be juicy and tender), the Kalua pork (better be flavorful and not dry) and the mac salad (flexibility here, but it better be tasty)! With options like two protein platters and side orders, you can stack up your favorites or sample something different. I went with my 3 staples (as well as tried the spicy chicken) and everything was spot on. Dinged a star for portion size (generosity seems to be taking a back seat to inflation). The spicy chicken doesn't stand out to the work horses of ribs and pigs, but was tender and tasty. I'm glad this place is down the street from my family's house, it fills that void and brings me back to my childhood days of friend BBQs and platters of delicious Hawaiian food! read more

Just when I make the decision to bump up my review thanks to the improvements seen, I am repeatedly reminded of the frustrations that go hand in hand with this particular Ono Hawaiian BBQ... The last time I was here, my order was incorrect and I didn't realize until I got home. What should have been a HAWAIIAN BBQ CHICKEN PLATE ended up being a CHICKEN COMBO. Im not sure how the cashier got CHICKEN COMBO frm HAWAIIAN BBQ CHICKEN but whatever. I was charged for the combo and received a combo.... Unfortunately the chicken Katsu was absolute garbage. Oily, dry, and didn't taste fresh!! This time around, we placed an order for a HAWAIIAN BBQ MIX PLATE [2 SCOOPS OF MAC SALAD, 1 SCOOP OF RICE] & 2 Spam Musubis. The order was sent via text and shown to the employee to ensure no issues would be made. **see screenshot of text uploaded** We come home and open the box to 2 SCOOPS OF RICE AND 1 SCOOP OF MAC SALAD! While this normally wouldn't be too big of an issue to most people, it is quite a big deal for me since my daughter only eats the mac. While there have been some improvements, employees really need to pay more attention to orders and requests. I would have loved to drive back down there but it was already running into my daughter's dinner schedule. Needless to say, I am quite annoyed! read more

I love Ono barbecue. I always order the barbecue chicken. Sometimes I order the adult size sometimes I order the kids size. I love to put the teriyaki sauce on my rice. The sweetness of the teriyaki sauce and the saltines of the chicken go well together. The employees there are always friendly. My order is always correct. I am a returning customer. read more

Came in here on a Monday afternoon and it was not busy at all so service was relatively quick. I wanted to try the kalua pork for the first time since I have not had it yet. What I thought was nice about the service was that you can actually swap your rice for more macaroni salad or with vegetables at no extra cost. I decided to just get their macaroni salad because of how delicious I remember it to be. The pork was really salty though and the pork did not seem like it was tender enough for me. It was rough but at the same time was able to rip apart which didn't make sense for me. If I were to come here again, I would not get the Kaula pork though. Price was around $16 before tax. read more

Ono Hawaiian BBQ - Hawaiian Near Me - San Jose, California

Let's begin with a little bit of disclosure. I ended up trying this restaurant because of a number of coupons I received in the mail. From the start, the address of this place on their website is incorrect. If you followed that address, you would end up in the middle of a rental community. The address listed here is correct. Anyways, I drove in to order some take-out and use the coupon I had. I ordered the number 5 and number 42. The number 5 can be described as their seafood plate which consists to two pieces of grilled chicken, two pieces of breaded white fish, and three breaded jumbo prawns. Also included are two scoops of rice, cabbage/broccoli veggie and some mac and cheese. The number 42 is made up of grilled beef and chicken with the same included items listed above. Yes, they are pretty large meals and could feed a person over two meals (depending on how hungry one is). Before I made my order, the guy in front of me asked to put the mac and cheese in a separate container. I asked for the same and it is a good idea. After driving home, I decided to try out the seafood plate and save the grill plate for the next day. All I can say is that the seafood items are very nicely done and tasty. The breading is almost perfectly salted and I could not stop myself from eating it all (well almost). After eating half of the plate (and enjoying some grapes I had in the fridge) it was a pretty fulfilling meal. There were a couple of problems that I noticed when eating my leftovers the next day. When the grill meats cool down, they lose their taste. I realised that they weren't salted or peppered very much or at all. As a solution, I had some homemade teriyaki sauce and poured some over the grill meats as I reheated them in a frying pan on low heat. It definitely raised the yum factor. Secondly, I noticed a slight bitter aftertaste to the veggies which I had tasted before at one or two other restaurants. My guess is that the veggies weren't washed properly (when I cook I wash my veggies at least 3 times and have never had this bitter after taste... ever). Bottom line is the food is good and though service is a little slow (they cook to order), I will stick to the number 5 plate. read more

Uniqueness: They have crab Rangoons? More chicken variety than L&L Wait Time: [x][x][x][ ][ ] Food Quality: [x][x][x][x][ ] Service: [x][x][x][x][ ] Setting: [x][x][x][x][ ] Cost: [x][x][x][ ][ ] Recommendation? Start with the chicken katsu for starters! Ono Hawaiian BBQ is one of the few Hawaiian shops around the Milpitas/San Jose area and I have to say it was alright. Chicken Katsu was crisp and fresh the moment I got to eat it for take out, the Mac salad was actually a little savory compared to L&L in a good way, and not much to really complain on the rice and veggies. Service was mediocre and it could take a while for your food to come out even though there was not a lot of people. If you're really craving Hawaiian, I'd recommend this place maybe once in a while. read more

This was my first time visiting Ono, and my expectations were moderate given that this is a chain. I was quite pleased with both the service and quality of the food! The new melemele curry chicken here is absolutely delicious. It comes in generous portions, is super flavorful, and has just the right amount of kick to it. The rice was also perfectly cooked and warm even after getting home from picking up the to go order. To add to the good here, the chicken is a special price right now - it was only $8 for an entire plate! I'll definitely be back while they're having the special on this chicken. It's an amazing, unique menu item that I've never had at any other Hawaiian BBQ restaurant. read more

Ono Hawaiian BBQ - Melemele Curry Chicken - Hawaiian Near Me - San Jose, California

Ok it's a chain. But it is a chain that offers some serious comfort food for me. I'll take a Hawaiian plate lunch over any mainland fastfood options any day of da week bruddah. I don't think I've ever tried this particular chain, but I think Imma fan it. I like it much better than L & L. Spam Musubi ($7ish/3*) They cook theirs to order, which you might think is appropriate but I'm very traditionalist when it comes to this dish. You see when a place cooks it to order, then they'll fry up the spam right when you order it, then proceed to wrap it in the nori and rice. So, the spam is piping hot and just steams in that musubi packaging. This invention is meant to be really at room temp, wrapped and meant to grab and go and eat on the run. Shoot, in Hawaii, I'll pick some up at a convenience store where it is sitting on a counter ready to grab. I'll throw some in a backpack (not even a cooler) and go conquer my day ie hiking, snorkeling or just laying on a beach. I'll open it up hours later and just munch on that spam, rice, nori perfection. So to eat this version crazy hot was not my ideal version. I actually saved the other one to eat down the road, and it was just okay. I think their proportion to rice to spam is a bit heavy on the rice. It's an art figuring what that is. BBQ Chicken/Beef Combo ($15ish/4*) Solid plate lunch. Mac salad perfectly basic. I used to wonder why places didn't add more ingredients or flavor to it...until I visited Hawaii. Now I love it plain and smooth to go with all them flavorful meats. Love their bbq meats, always cooked to order and nice and juicy, especially the chicken in which they use boneless thighs. The marinade absorbs well into the meat, and when griddled on that flat top grill, just caramelizes beautifully. And it isn't that overly thick teriyaki type sauce, nothing gloopy will coat the meat. The meat is flavored from the inside-out. I did like the chicken a lot more than the beef as it was just juicier and meatier bites. The beef is sliced super thin and just reminded me of bulgogi. And what separates this place from the others is that they add sauted cabbage and broccoli to the mix. Right on top of the white rice and below the meats of choice. So as you open the box, you can't even see it underneath all that meat. But I think it balances the plate nicely, otherwise it is just a carb and meat fest. I applaud this addition to the fullest. Seafood Mix ($18ish/4*) I was hAngry after work one day and wanted something big. Now it is still still 2 full meals for me which makes it a pretty sweet deal. But here you get 3 different meats, which makes it feel like a Hawaiian buffet. Along with bbq chicken that I already described it also came with panko fried shrimp which was just meh. Frozen product and tasted the breading more than the shrimp. I would skip this next time. But the fried fish was awesome. They don't specify what type of fish, menu just says 'Hawaiian White fish". I usually want to know, but I didn't ask as the counter people are basically teenagers who probably don't want to get badgered. But boy was it great, very thick slices, nice and flaky and quite juicy and silky. And this was fried in a batter that wasn't overly done, just a hint of crispness to compliment all that luscious fish. So next time I'll just get the fish and chicken combo. I actually can't wait for another visit, and I can't say that about most chains. Want to round up to a fiver but can't cuz the dining area is usually kinda unkept and grimy. 4 bust da mouth stars tho. And read more

This place has become our family favorite for Hawaiian takeout. We travel far to come here but it worth every mile! The Katsu is fantastic. If you are looking for great Katsu, look no further this is the place. I been to quite of few, this is my only Katsu I bet on being the best. Also, the price is great for the amount and quality! The Staff was very nice and welcoming! I am looking forward to trying other items on menu too. Try it them you will be a happy customer just like ours! You will love it! read more

I honestly love eating here and I always come for lunch and when it comes to my lunches it is always just the way I like it. I was a little disappointed with my catering order though. Both of my beef items had pieces that were overcooked and so dry which is a bummer because they cost way more than the chicken. The teriyaki chicken was perfect and so was the salad. The rice was a little on the wet side but still good. I just don't know if I will order catering here again. read more

The food is consistently good, and the portions are decent compared to how much other places cost these days. Unfortunately, the service is pretty poor. I always go right when they open, so I'm usually order number one. The kitchen staff are fast. Front of the house, not so much. I'll usually stand there for several minutes watching my food sitting in the window while the young people are talking to each other or are on their phones. I would visit a LOT more if it were not for that. There is absolutely no reason for my hot food to be sitting there getting cold. read more

Food here was mid, if not a little sus...and it came at a premium price. Ordered the seafood mix plate to-go and the box seemingly looked packed at first but basically half of it was a very bland boiled cabbage which was covered by all the food on the top. It wasn't good at all and there was alot of it so I ended up throwing most of it out. I have a feeling its just a way for them to make it look like they are giving you a lot. The chicken and shrimp were decent but the fried fish tasted a little funky... The interior is very clean and modern but that's one of the only pros I can think of for this place. read more

For the value, the food is great. But what I don't like is the amount of "steamed veggies" the Chicken Katsu cutlets sit on. It's so misleading! I had some for the next day and ended up stir frying it, so I call that a win. I just wished that the veggies were cut into smaller pieces and wasn't provided as a bed for the meat but rather on the side. There were some pieces of chicken where I didn't get meat and only got the tempura :( but it was crunchy. The BBQ beef had good flavor as well and I enjoyed it with the macaroni salad. I didn't taste (or see) any tuna in the macaroni salad though... but it was still good! Tastes like the normal creamy Hawaiian macaroni salad you'd expect anywhere :) read more

9/21/21 Four words: Do not come here! My boyfriend and I wanted to try a new place and we were sadly disappointed. We had just finished some shopping at H Mart and wanted to get lunch. The service was quite slow and I got the impression that the employees don't really care about their work and the environment in general. When my boyfriend had to use the restroom, he told me he wanted to vomit because the restroom was disgusting. He didn't want to share how gross it was, but he said he wanted to do his business and GTFO as fast as possible. We ordered two aloha plates: 1. Chicken katsu and kahlua pork (his) 2. Spicy chicken and white fish (mine) 3. Crab Rangoon (to share) My boyfriend's plate looked really good and normal, but he said that the meat was dry and bland. The crab rangoons were so tiny and are not worth getting. My plate looked pretty unappetizing. The fish was a small, unflavorful chunk. The spicy chicken was TOO spicy even though the girl who rang us up said it was only mildly spicy. And the pieces disturbingly resembled chopped up intestines for some reason... Will not come be coming back... read more

At first I thought it was nothing special besides the huge portion sizes (great value), but a few days later I found myself craving their chicken plate. My go-to order is the chicken combo (Katsu + chicken BBQ). If you have to choose between the two or you're not that hungry, definitely try the katsu! You can switch out the rice for extra veggies if you're on a low carb diet. read more

I've had Hawaiian BBQ before and that was much better than what I had today. I ordered the chicken combo--BBQ chicken and chicken Katsu served with two scoops of white rice, macaroni salad, and what tasted like blanched cabbage and broccoli. The chicken Katsu was thin and I mostly tasted the fried batter; the BBQ chicken thighs lacked flavor, and the veggies had absolutely no taste and was water-logged. The only thing I liked about this dish was the macaroni salad. Yeah, I'm not coming to this one again. read more

Decided to try this tonight with the family. We ordered the family meal and got the chicken katsu, kalbi, and kalua pork. We got the Mac salad for the side and vegetables. J placed the order through app. It was easy to use. When I picked up the order, I double check my order but didn't see any of the vegetables. When I asked the employee, he was polite and double checked with one of the cooks in the back. I guess the vegetables they meant were already in with the meat. When I got home, the only vegetables were a few pieces of broccoli and tons of cabbage under the meat. The cabbage seemed like it was more of just a bed for the meat. I was hoping for more of a vegetable medley steamed or stir fried. I guess not. The katsu was over cooked but I liked the crisp. The sauce that went with it was too ketchup-y. We ended up using our own bottled katsu sauce. The kalbi also was over cooked but didn't have a nice sweet flavor that I expected. Kind of bland. The kalua pork was good. My mother in law thought it had too much black pepper flavor to it. I enjoyed it. The Mac salad was tasty. A light flavor and my baby enjoyed it too. We made our own rice at home to eat with this so we were able to get extra Mac salad. Glad we did that. Overall, would I come here again? Maybe not. Food was okay. Definitely better than the L&L's, but honestly, these were all things that we make at home and homemade always tastes better. If you're craving Hawaiian food and really want something because you don't feel like cooking, sure, this is a good spot to come to. read more

Love Ono! One of our frequently visited restaurants. Been getting take out a lot during this shelter in place. Love that they've been having a different buy one get one free offer almost every week since the shelter in place started. The $5 island white fish deal they have every year during lent season is also one of my favorites. Great deals! The food is good, the usual Hawaiian bbq entrees. Bbq chicken, chicken katsu, spam musubi, bbq beef, Khalua pork. What makes Ono different from the other Hawaiian bbq places is that they serve you cooked cabbage with their regular plates, which I love. This is the only chain I know of that does this, most serve shredded raw cabbage with their plates. Also Ono leaves their katsu and teriyaki sauce out for the customers to help themselves to except right now during shelter in place but you can still ask for the sauces. Tip for ordering during shelter in place, just call your order in and it's ready when you get there. They have added plexiglass screens on the counters and employees are wearing masks and gloves. read more
