“Best Hawaiian bbq on the main land and most Hawaii. Everything here is perfect. Bbq chicken and teri pork unbelievable flavor. Saiman , volcano chicken, masubis,shrimp what ever you order will be amazing. Great serving size been coming here for years my family loves this place. We traveled multiple times to the big island, maui and Oahu and on our trips and nothing can compare to this Waikiki Hawaiian BBQ flavors. OMW“

“Ordered delivery on DoorDash and I don’t know if this is the regular serving size or it’s because I placed my order just 10 minutes before they closed but wow generous serving size and delicious fish - great high quality ahhh!!

Fish in the box (lite) for $38. Great value imo“

“Food was delicious, staff was amazing and ambiance was beautiful ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food was fresh! Service was great. The tables were clean!“

“We were looking for a place to get some comfort Asian food and this was the perfect spot.

Good:
- The macaroni and the chicken bbq dish was amazing - the portion sizes were great and the portions were good
- Servers were very nice
- The place is pretty simple, but still clean and well kept

Bad:
- Took a bit for our food to arrive for a casual place like this

Overall this was such a nice find, I loved how tasty everything was and would come back.“

“This is the only remaining good, food restaurant outlet left in the building. They have fresh fish, fresh ingredients and reasonable prices with no lines, unfortunately. You should change that and go get a great healthy tasty meal from them for round $15“

“Hard working servers with delicious food. Two thumbs up.“

“Hi City Poke nails that true island flavor! The owner is from Hawaii and brings all the aloha with him — super friendly, down-to-earth, and clearly passionate about sharing good food.

The poke itself? So ono. Fresh, flavorful, and totally legit. You’ll find classic Hawaiian-style fish alongside “mainland” toppings — because, as the owner said, “you gotta give the city what it wants.” But don’t worry, purists — the foundation is all Hawaii.

It’s quick, delicious, and feels like a little taste of home“

“Excellent food , as good as any Hawaiian BBQ“

“Delicious food, generous portions, and great service. The chicken combo and aloha bbq mix are a must-try—so flavorful and perfectly cooked. iLava is consistently good every time!“

“Got the chicken katsu dish. Katsu is very crisp, use thigh meat, sauce is good, habanero sauce is killer, some pieces of katsu mostly breading with how thin the meat got but a large portion and so I do not feel skimped on meat overall. Steamed cabbage and broccoli provided give a nice break to the grease. Mac is on par with l&l. Would eat here again“

“I’ve always ordered the teriyaki plate with Mac salad and did order something for others and this place makes the best Hawaiian teriyaki reminded me of the flavors back home on Hawaii and there is a Moku’s back home and I appreciate the food from Moku Berkeley! My go to when I’m craving for food back home!!“

“Ono Hawaiian BBQ in Oakland.

I used to come here all the time when they first opened in 2017.

Their portions are big enough to feed 2 people, and I always grab the sauces to go.

Their Hawaiian BBQ Chicken plate is just as delicious as I remembered. I used to always get the Chicken Katsu as well.

Would come back if I'm in the area.“

“Man it was good, but how can you be a Hawaiian BBQ place without a LOCO MOCO on the menu?! That needs to get added immediately“

“Amazing spot! The menu was very clear about dietary restrictions, and the fact that it’s an entirely gluten free establishment made me feel very safe in ordering. Portions for the bowls were fantastic (yay leftovers for lunch the next day!), and shout out to the many dressing/sauce options available. Finding gluten free teriyaki sauce AND vegan ranch to dip their delicious cauliflower wings? A major win!
Only caveat to note is the cookie dough potion is quite small for the price, but I do love to support Sweet Loren’s when I can.
Overall, so happy to have found this spot, and will definitely be ordering from here when I’m visiting Oakland again!

Dietary restrictions: The entire kitchen is dedicated gluten free, and all their menu items clearly state dietary restriction matches. There are many vegan options to accommodate as well!“

“Great people, fresh ingridients, authentic taste. Love it!!“

“I ordered 22 individual meals for a company lunch. The food was prepared, boxed, and ready to go in less than an hour. They made sure to write who's food belonged to which employee on their boxes, and went over my checklist with me more than once to make sure nothing had been missed.

My staff loved the food and I received many comments about how good it was. I would rate this business higher than a 5 if I could.

Highly recommended. Thank you so much for your help!“

“My first time at this location, and I see that it has low ratings because of the service, but luckily it's looks like I avoided the problem employee.Pros: Huge portions, piping hot, ready quicklyCons: Nothing special taste wiseIf you're really hungry, eat here.“

“We were thrilled to be invited to a dinner event host at Trader Vic’s since it’s one of the tiki bar I really waned to try!

The dinner was decent overall. We started with a salad that came with lettuce mix, tomato, artichoke, hearts of palm and Japanese dressing.

For entrees, we had the miso salmon that’s pan seared salmon with chimichurri, grilled bok choy.

We also tried the sliced New York strip loin, which tasted great as well. For dessert, we had the dulce de leche cream brûlée, which tasted great.

After dinner, we went to the bar and ordered a few cocktails. The bartender, David, was very friendly and chill! We tried the original Mai tai, Polu Puffer and Bumbu Hunter.

The one I liked the most was the Bumbu Hunter, it had four kinds of rums with tropical notes and warm spices! I would definitely come back to try more of their drinks! Highly recommended!“

“New ghost kitchen at Adeline Food Hall. I ordered the Large Mixed Plate via DoorDash. I picked bbq chicken and fried chicken. Plate came with mac salad and rice. The chicken is laying on a bed of rice. Prices are higher than Ono Hawaiian BBQ, and portions are slightly smaller. But it's delicious food and served fresh! 4-stars.“

“Wonderful experience while eating here when we visited our son!“

“I've only ever ordered the food by delivery. The food is better than Panda Express. Also the portion size is huge and for a good price too. If you are looking for fast food Chinese food this is the place to get it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Good portions and friendly staff. Love the atmosphere and college town feel.“

“Amazing sushi rolls and great service. Try it. I promise you won't be disappointed.“

“Consistently delicious poke! Not fancy, but always fresh and really fairly priced. I love getting the build-your-own poke bowl, plenty of sauce and flavor without being overwhelming. The spam musubis are all great too (I’ve tried the classic, fried, and spicy). It’s family-owned and operated, which makes me even happier to support them. Perfect for takeout, though I’ll sometimes dine in for lunch (just note there isn’t a ton of seating).“
