I came here for the Stitch bag. 😆 I bought a Keiki meal, chicken katsu. It was a great value and tasty. Also, the lunch bag was better made than I was expecting. This place is out of my regular zone, but if it was closer, I would return. Wish there was a way to get the other 3 bags, but one is better than none. Aloha!

The food is very good, I recognize it, but they don't do what you ask for. I asked for my dishes extra cooked since I have a medical condition and I have to make sure that my meat is well cooked, which was not the case. It seems like I told them with raw meat, I could not eat my entire plate since they did the opposite. The employees should understand that when you ask for your food extra cooked, it is not to bother them or give them more work, it is simply for some reason. I hope they try to understand and do it since one is aware that the order will take a while, that is not the problem for me.

THIS was one of the stops on our way back to Las Vegas from San Francisco. This place has the Best Hawaiian Food especially the Fish compared to the Zippy's here in Vegas. 🔥

Ono is my go to for Hawaiian BBQ. The portion size at this location is amazing. I ordered take out, two Hawaiian BBQ Mix and substituted the mac salad for fresh mixed salad for an additional 25 cents each. (Just trying to be healthier) The chicken was very tender and packed with flavor. Loved the short ribs, a bit sweet but very savory. The beef was okay, usually a hit or miss it, sometimes its very juicy and tender, other times it is a bit dried out. The beef sliced thin, so it is easy to overcook.

On the side near the soda machines you can fill up your own teriyaki and katsu sauce. They have small cups and lid for you take out. For me, one teriyaki and one katsu sauce was enough for a plate. The meat is already flavorful so I didn’t need to overly sauce it.

If it is your first time here, I recommend the Hawaiian BBQ plate that way you get to try a bit of each. I tried the seafood in the past, I thought it was okay.

Ordered BBQ combo with Chichen, ribs and beef and 3x macaroni salad and 1x steamed vegetables for sides on a takeout order. Got all ribs, 1.5 macaroni salad and mostly rice. Definitely not coming back here.

There seems to be Japanese elements in it. The rice is incredibly delicious, as is the macaroni. As for the meat, I think the chicken is better, and the beef is a little dry and salty. Overall very satisfied

For what it is, Ono really is a great Hawaiian BBQ chain.

I've tried a lot of local chains and still overall I think Ono is a bit better.

Chicken is great, beef is alright, and seafood it's mid but still decent.
Really solid mac salad as well.

Pricing as well is quite fair and they have coupons on some occasions so even better.

The Seafood Mix is great, tons of food (enough for 2 meals). I really like the mac salad but nobody else in my fam likes it. More for me, I guess!
