“Love all the options here--so many fresh add-ins!“

“We were greeted with friendliness when we walked in the door. The items on the menu were diverse and creative, with a mix of more standard fare. The food was delicious with an enjoyable mix of seasoning and well cooked fare. The wait was appropriate for the cuisine. A wholly pleasing experience.“

“Great food at a great price. Best Poke Bowl I have had yet“

“I windsurfed Maui for years. Honeymooned there. 16th birthday for my daughter. This place reminds me of Paia and Malawian. Such a friendly attitude. The food was awesome. It’s not like Mama’s fish house more quaint.“

“My son and i love this location, we've visited others and have left disappointed when we reach the rice and realize its not fully cooked. The rice is spot on and the portions are great, enough for my son and i to share! And the service was fast and knowledgeable.“

“We’ve tried a few poke places, and this is our favorite! Fresh ingredients, good portions, a nice variety, and friendly service. Even though other poke restaurants are closer to our house, we keep going to this one. I would have included a picture, but I’ve already finished eating the food.“

“Ono serves delicious chicken katsu with crispy batter and juicy meat along with tasty Hawaiian BBQ chicken at a reasonable price, plus the plates come with rice and salad. The friendly staff, quick service, Hawaiian drinks and shared parking make it a great spot for an easy meal.“

“A nice little fast food style eatery! You order at little kiosks inside the doors. The food is very tasty and fresh and is served very quickly. I had huli-huli chicken and it was tender and flavorful. Miranda is working the front of the house and she is lovely, quick to help with the kiosks, she delivers food, offers to bring condiments, and even checks on you after! The business better keep her happy!“

“Food was delicious - chicken was seasoned perfectly and very tender. Emily was a great hostess - explained all the entrees and sides“

“This is why I shop local!! Been meaning to check them out and I picked up a Maui plate with mac salad and katsu chicken after work. Best mac salad I've ever had and the katsu chicken was so well breaded and delicious. Also was super quick and the amount of katsu chicken I got for 12 bucks was amazing.“

“Been craving some good Hawaiian food for a while now and this place definitely hit the spot. Picked it up to enjoy at home and it traveled well for being 25 mins away. The poke nachos are to die for. Kalbi beef was my personal favorite, next to the pork. Chicken and shrimp were both good but I didn't realize the shrimp still had it's shell on so that threw me off. But all around great flavor and will be coming again. If the owner sees this, May God bless you and your family. Also look up Justice James 🎶 🤙🏻.“

“it's a little daunting if you have never picked your own stuff before, but I generally picked everything I liked and it was pretty bomb. great place and the tea is good too“

“Love this place! The love and passion for the food they create and serve is evident in the atmosphere! The staff makes you feel like family. The food is so authentic tasting and you don’t feel like “I could have made this at home”. Best Hawaiian food in AZ hands down.“

“Aloha Kitchen relies on being different, but passes the cost on to the customer.

I really enjoyed the char on Aloha Kitchen's chicken and bulgogi. You can hardly find a genuine char outside of a hibachi or teppanyaki. For the area, this is great food, and I wouldn't mind returning. However, the price of the food would keep me at bay. At $16+ per plate, you're looking at roughly 12 oz of food, which isn't bad, considering the flavor profile, but isn't great either.

Based on my recent past experiences, I haven't been able to find a comparable teriyaki chicken that matches (or even comes close to) the level of beautiful char flavor here.

If I were in the area, I would need to be in the mood for this type of food and then consider my options. Knowing that there isn't a better place in Mesa/Tempe might force me to return here, assuming the price was right. 4/5 stars“

“Great place to work, eat, be :)“

“Went here 6/20/26 and got 2 bowls. The person doing my bowl seemed new and totally skimped me with toppings lol. Was also slightly rude when ringing up my parter and I. I usually get a fair amount of toppings which is fair for the price I’m paying. The bowl on the left was my bf’s. The person that made my boyfriend’s bowl was super friendly and gave a fair amount of toppings (seen in the crab portion). Was a little annoyed as i am regular customer and haven’t ever had a bowl with such small portions of toppings but overall I love Ahi Poki and typically have great service other than this time. :/“

“This is a lucky find. The bbq beef has the enduring flavour of umame. It’s no wonder people are lined up out the door; they’re addicted!! It’s really like that ; you want to order it again after all you got left is an empty plate. But who’s going to do that. Huh?“

“I've been to this location a few different times, and the food has always been fantastic. I've had multiple of the dishes and never been disappointed. Meals come out fast and freshly hot, with filling and tasty options like the chicken katsu and crispy shrimp.

I've never liked macaroni salad because, in my experience, it is typically slimy and bland, but Ono's salad is the exception, and it's the first time I've wanted seconds. Another worthwhile side is the spam musubi, which is another example of the restaurant having better quality compared to the places I've visited with comparable options.

Ono doesn't serve fresh drinks; however, there is a cooler with appropriate Hawaiian beverages alongside the standard fountain machine. Customers can buy whole coconuts, and guava pies are sold as a dessert.

The interior design is simple but pleasant with hanging lights and a clean lobby with many seating options, including an outdoor patio. Tropical music is often played, and artificial flowers are at both the front and back of the restaurant. It feels humble, cozy, and distinct enough from other places even without having that many decorations.

It's a casual and cute place, and I'll be sure to stop by again for more rice and fish.“

“I love the Hawaiian bbq experience!“
