Ono Hawaiian BBQ

Before basketball practice today, my son wanted to make a quick pit stop at a Hawaiian barbecue spot and it was a great call. We grabbed the teriyaki chicken and crab rangoons, and the moment we walked in, the smell alone had us ready to eat. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. The atmosphere was welcoming and chill, perfect for a quick reset between a busy schedule. They also offer an Aloha plate, where you can choose one item or mix it up with two super clutch for fueling up without overthinking it. No complaints at all. Great food, great vibe, and exactly what we needed before practice. My son already said we’ll be back and that says it all. 🌺🍗🏀

Overall pretty decent gig. Casual sit down. Light vibes. Good portions were great. I’d say it’s like a Hawaiian version of Panda Express.

UPDATE: before you read my review from several weeks ago below, I just saw the report from the county health department that this location failed their health inspection miserably on December 18, and then again on March 5. Absolutely disgusting! The kitchen is filthy and they are not properly caring for raw meats, and the employees aren’t washing their hands after handling raw chicken. Hard pass! They didn’t learn their lesson the first time. I will never eat there again! FIRST REVIEW: The food was pretty good, but the staff need some customer service training. They act like they’re doing you a favor. They allowed a dog inside the place that was running around without a leash. They need to clean up the area that has the sauce dispenser. It was dirty and katsu sauce’s lid was off.

The delivery person hung my order up on a neighbor’s fence not connected to my house. When i called saying i couldn’t find it, the person said to call back in 4 hours. And that they don’t deliver from their store… so I emailed and called to try to get a refund but they said I would have to contact uber eats. Uber eats has no record of the order obviously, because i ordered it directly off of Ono’s website. $37 down the drain. This was the picture they sent as proof of delivery.

chicken katsu was inedible, tasted like cat litter and the meat was gray and pink. bbq beef, rice and salad were all decent though.
