Loved the interior of the restaurant, staff were all incredibly nice. What first catches your attention about the restaurant is the cleanliness and how neat everything was! There's ample seating, really a feel good place to eat at. The fish was just ok compared to many poke places. The biggest issue I have is the portions. I have to say they truly were small and a lot of people in my party left hungry. Parking isn't usually an issue but it can get hectic for sure at busy times. The plaza in general is pretty new and there's a lot of new construction in the area. I wanted to love this place. The interior is beautiful and folks are awesome but truly there are many other better poke spots. read more

Everybody from the staff to the owner is really nice and the portions are generous. I seen some mixed reviews which confused me after trying it out a few times because everything has been excellent and I highly recommend these Poke Bowls!!

After an unfortunate experience recently, I feel like I should post another review to commend how fast the owner responded to feedback left here. They were very apologetic and promised to refresh staff training. They also told me they've refunded full amount for that bowl (have yet to check my account), and offered to make up for the unpleasant experience with a free bowl. That night was hectic for me and when my daughter showed me the metal piece she got from her bowl, I immediately turned to yelp. Later on, I saw the link in the receipt which I also utilized. I truly appreciate the immediate response and genuine effort to make this right. read more

Beautiful interior. Staff was really nice and patient with our questions and gave us lots of time to decide. However, the portion size was really small for a large $20 bowl. Only one side and topping, and then it's additional $$ for everything else. Fish was standard, no huge rave or boo over other competitors. There are so many poke places out there nowadays that are of similar quality or better, it's hard to validate a second visit over other options. read more

I'm not sure what the point of reviews are if you never pay attention to them. READ the reviews. The quality of the food is good. The place is clean. PORTIONS are ridiculously small. You want sauce to actually penetrate the food and provide flavor? Sorry, not gonna happen. You'll get 3 squirts of whatever you want, but your rice will still be dry. You've been able to survive on tourism, but if you're trying to get your locals back for more, this won't cut it. You'll walk in hungry and leave hungry. read more

Some go to In-N-Out when they get into the area. Our first stop is Poke Bar. I was excited to revisit recently after moving out of state and hoped to talk with the owner, which I got to do. She assembled our orders, offering advice on what paired best. I had salmon and tuna on rice. My husband had octopus and scallops, which aren't options near us. The crab or seaweed salad is a nice perk. The medium bowls were ample for our healthy appetites. The restaurant is clean; the food is always very fresh. For those who prefer romaine lettuce, the mixed greens offered is a better option (per a friend who works in food safety). They honor the history of Fort Ord with wall murals. The Aloha Spirit (from the staff, food/drinks and Hawaiian music) is contagious. The owner gave us dessert after learning of my birthday dessert mishap elsewhere the day before. Can't wait to return. read more

Consistently good fresh ingredients. They don't drown the fish in sauce, you really get that buttery texture and flavor. I got the OG salmon, can't go wrong with it. Just perfect portions and balance of salmon, rice, crab, seaweed, edamame, cucumber and their house sauce + furikake season, no kidding OG classic. There was a beautifully arranged Hawaiian chips in a basket that called my name... the spice kick from it elevated the meal. Don't forget the chips! We came in during a crowd but it was very quick service. From line to seating we were sitting to enjoy our food over nostalgic Hawaiian reggae before we knew it. This place was super clean and there were ample tables to dine at. The staff was warm and welcoming, answered all my questions, even if very few since the menu was pretty straight forward, which I appreciated. Just come! Don't think about it. It's a guiltLESS pleasure. read more

The good: Clean. Friendly staff. Basic poke. The bad: not a lot of variety for the poke or the sides. Left feeling...sad. And not satiated which was a little disappointing. A little steep in terms of price for what it was. Ended up being around $13 for a small bowl. To consider: if you want basic poke, this is the place for you. I think that this would be a decent//non overwhelming environment for newbs. If you have a love for good poke with lots of accouterments this may not be worth your time or monies. read more

I was craving poke and to my surprise, there wasn't too many poke spots around. I finally found this one and the reviews were good so we decided to give it a try. It wasn't busy when we got there likely because it was mid day on a weekday. We both got regular size bowls and was really disappointed in the price given the limited variety in topping selections. I wasn't surprised that there was extra charge for additional items including seaweed salad and avocado, that's pretty common. The taste was just okay. Don't think I'd come back here because of limited topping selections and small portions. read more

STARS: 3.5 MENU AND FOOD: They offer poke bowls with a limited selection of fish, including salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, seared albacore, scallops and shrimp. SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE: Service is professional and efficient. Their dining room decor is appropriate and appealing. They have indoor dining and a 2 tables outdoor. PARKING: Located in a shopping plaza, parking is usually not a challenge. IMPRESSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: I usually get their medium poke bowl with both salmon and tuna fishes. Each bowl does come with either a side imitation crab or seaweed salad and crispy toppings. While their portions are on the smaller side, I think their fish and sauces pair well for a refreshing and light meal. read more

This place was quiet and seemingly clean. There weren't any customers around 4:30 pm and the girl working was in the middle of cleaning when I walked in. She was friendly. I ordered two large poke bowls with salmon, spicy tuna, scallops, and octopus and it comes with a scoop of either seaweed salad or crab. The protein scoops were on the small side but the rice scoops were standard. Overall, it was average as I suspected it would be. Only thing I hated was that the fried garlic/onion topping was stale/hard. read more

Lady doesn't know how to run a business and is running it into the ground! good luck whatever your name is!

The people who work here were very friendly and personable. I had been to other poke places similar to this. You pick which size you want. A small is 2 scoops, medium is 3 scoops. But the scoops are kind of small. Most of your meal is rice. So you pick white or brown rice, then your protein. Mix ins/toppings and sauce. They mix it all together and put it in your bowl. You have a choice of a scoop or seaweed or imitation crab also. I tried to spicy tuna, but it has a kick after a minute, so I didn't get that. I got the spicy Sriracha sauce, but they didn't put much on it. So my mea was pretty blah and not too flavorful. read more

Pick up was easy & everything was packaged for safe transport in a car. Some notes about the restaurant: It's located in a strip mall with ample parking. The place is practically spotless. The owner never stopped cleaning. Restaurant owners & managers, take note!! The menu is simple, but hearty and flavorful (according to my friend). If you're lucky, the dishwasher will serenade you as he works!!

Although we only got a couple appetizers, I wanted to highlight the amazing service! We got 2 complimentary glasses of sparkling champagne at the front desk. The servers were super friendly and accommodating as we had our small pup with us. I would come back just for the garlic fries itself. Thick, garlicky with a mix of soggy and crunchy (just my type, judge me LOL). Would love to return and have a full meal!

On Thursday, May 7th, my six friends and I went out for dinner at this restaurant, which used to be…read moreone of my favorite places. Unfortunately, this last visit left a very bad impression on both me and my friends, especially since I invited them with high expectations. The service felt rude and unwelcoming. I also brought a bottle of wine (around an $80 bottle), and the waitress informed me there would be a corkage fee -- which is completely understandable because most restaurants charge one. What I found ridiculous was being charged $50 just to open the bottle. In restaurants around Pebble Beach, Carmel, Big Sur, and Pacific Grove, the most we've ever paid is around $35. Sadly, this will be my last time dining here.

Still love this Hawaiian BBQ place!! I alwasy stop here on my way back home after visiting family…read morein the Bay Area. I always order the same thing: chicken katsu plate with no veggies and 2 mac salad scoops. They put more rice under the chicken so I end up with about the same amount of rice. I get three sauces, one pump of katsu sauce with a dab of teriyaki in the middle. I get a large soda with lots of ice because I usually have an extra can of coke from my Mom with me!! Then I set it all up on my passenger's seat and eat it while I drive south towards home. Often there is traffic right here going south so I sit in the traffic and eat my food without getting stressed out. Then I dump the trash when I hit the Goodwill in Soledad!!

I had a craving for Hawaiian macaroni salad so I went to Ono Hawaiian BBQ…read more It wasn't busy at all. The place was very clean. After looking over the menu, I wanted to have the kalua pork. I asked the cashier what other item she recommended as a combo, which comes with steamed cabbage and broccoli and, of course, steamed rice. She offered the chicken katsu because it was popular. Since it took some time for my food, I figured that it was cooked to order, which is a good sign. I took my lunch back to work because I wasn't that hungry at the time, but I did have some macaroni salad. I had my lunch an hour or so later. I was thinking that the katsu was going to be dry since it had been sitting in the container. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't, it was very tender, even after warming it up in the microwave for a short time. Ohhh, the kalua pork and macaroni salad were on point! So good! I'll have to try their spam musubi next time, one of my favorites.
