    Loved the poke here. Fresh ingredients, clean taste, and everything seasoned just right. The entire staff were super friendly. Plenty of seating. Parking is a little tough but it's worth the visit.

    Of Birmingham's multiple Ono Poke locations, this one may be my new favorite! The cashiers are all very friendly, the food comes out quickly, and the inside is clean and has a cute vibe! I always order a regular-size build-your-own bowl with usually the exact same protein and toppings. This time I added the Hot Cheetos on top, it was surprisingly really good. In my opinion, the bowls are a great value- they're filling and piled high with fresh toppings and seafood (or chicken/tofu).

    Tuna poke.  Fries with rice seasoning.

    Just opened 2/27 and its a great addition to hoover food scene. Ono poke has several locations around town and is definitely the best poke around. The staff was super friendly. The place was shiny and newn with a cool vibe. The poke is always fresh and delicious. I love how the tuna is marinated unlike many other sushi and poke places. Imo fruit always makes poke better and the pineapple really adds to the bowls. The fries had rice seasoning which i never tried before but really liked, but they could've definitely been hotter. Wife got the glazed chicken bowl and chicken it was decent but i would stick with the salmon or tuna or spicy tuna if u eat raw fish.

    This was my first time to come here and I absolutely loved it. I had gone to another Korean BBQ…read morerestaurant before but Stone Age III completely changed my entire perspective of Korean BBQ itself. The staff were all so so nice and constantly checked on us. And answered all of our questions. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with our friends and the food tasted amazing. What made me happy was after enjoying all of that delicious food I never once felt bloated or felt it was too much. I can definitely tell We will be coming back here again soon! The atmosphere was clean, fun, and entertaining.

    I was really curious to try the only Korean Hot Pot restaurant here in the Hoover/Birmingham area…read more It was alright; I think because I've had so many really good hot pot experiences growing up, I held my expectations here a bit steady. But I think it's great that they have a place like this here. So, the menu is limited, but it is great for a novice hot pot customer because they won't be overwhelmed. There is only one type of noodles you can get (glass noodles), and only a few selections of red meat and vegetables. But hey, I won't complain, because you can't get it elsewhere. The meat I received were super fatty. There were some when the fat was around 80% of the meat itself. Veggies were good! They have a bar of sauces and other foods you can get and add to your hot pot. Broth was fine, it wasn't anything particular to rave about. The service was great - people were so friendly and nice. They tended to us pretty well. The ambience was really cool! They have screens around the restaurant that play K-pop music videos, which was a super cool touch. 5/5 for the ambience.

They have multiple seating options; the first floor has booths that can accommodate smaller and large groups. The bar area is very inviting and fun to be able to watch your drinks being made and upstairs offers a more private area. When not seated at the bar they do have someone to come around to make sure you have what you need. The servers are very nice and tend to remember you, which is a great feeling. The menu rotates seasonally, which makes it easier to try new things. My favorite menu item so far has been the cheeseball that was on the menu around Christmas time. It had a great flavor served with crackers the only thing is when we came back after the first of the year it wasn't on the menu anymore. On my most recent visit I had the queso which also had great flavor, served with blue corn tortilla chips. When it comes to the drinks I like how on the menu they let you know how strong it is using toucans. Many of the drinks feature rum, but they do still offer some gin and tequila options. Everything I've had has been good and something I would try again. I would like to note that many of the drinks are fruity and can be somewhat sweet. At Christmas time they even had holiday themed drinkware which I felt was a nice touch. If you are not a drinker, they also have options for mocktails. Which has been great for me the last couple of months. I didn't care for the Phony Negroni, but I think Negroni itself might be an acquired taste

And of course they had me at poke bowls. It's one of my top 5 things to eat, honestly. But I ordered a Buddha bowl because it's almost the same thing and I felt a little lazy to DIY (not to mention, the Buddha bowl looked tantalizing!) They have other veg options, but I set my sights on that bowl as soon as the friendly counter guy suggested it. It's overloaded with goodness--avocado, deliciously marinated tofu, edamame (yes, it's a protein-rich bowl), tomatoes, shredded carrots, diced cucumbers, greens and more. You're literally devouring the rainbow here, friends. For drinks, they have a modest but decent selection of beer, wine (a decent bubbly in a can!) and sake in addition to soft drinks. The place is so beautiful (and spotlessly clean) with plants dangling from the ceiling and beautiful murals throughout. If I lived in the neighborhood, I'd be here all the time.

    The food was fine and fresh, but nothing outstanding to merit the price. $30 for a small poke bowl…read moreand two bao buns. I'm not sure if I'll be back.

Every time I go, the food tastes super fresh, which is something I really pay attention to. Nothing feels heavy or overly processed; it's just clean, simple, and really good. I usually build my own bowl with brown rice, cucumber, edamame, crab, avocado, and either salmon or shrimp depending on what I'm feeling. I always get the samurai sauce on the side so I can control how much I add. The combination is so good, and everything tastes fresh and flavorful together. The staff is always quick and efficient, which makes it a great option when you're in a rush but still want something healthy. The restaurant itself is also very clean and has a nice, simple atmosphere. Overall, I'd give Ono Poke 5 stars. It's one of my go-to spots when I want something fresh, filling, and actually makes me feel good after eating.

When we arrived their tables were full, and it was too cold to eat outside. Luckily, we only had to wait a few minutes before a table opened. The sun was shining right on this table, and in our eyes, so we decided to move. They may want to think about a window shade. Luckily, while we were waiting in line to order, another table opened up. Let me just say, I loved the bowl that I created, and the fact that they have some many toppings to choose from. At the recommendation of my friend, I chose the regular bowl. It was the perfect size and had no left overs. My base was brown rice. It was perfect adding in the warm comfort that I was looking for. My protein was shrimp and the toppings I chose were guacamole, ginger, jalapenos, pineapple, sweet onions, scallions, and what they call crunch. To top it off, I went for the soy sauce. My creation was the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. Delicious!!
