Kalua pork is super dry, we didn’t like any of the food, but the staff is really nice!

Food took 45 mins for a burrito and a nacho plate. Their excuse is they are doing a line of orders but it seems like they were missing something. Also they can't get names right, how many times do you have to be corrected. Normally a good spot but today was terrible. Try again Kono's and be better.

WOW! Konos was BROKE DA MOUTH. The worker Mason gave amazing customer service. Mason was the highlight of my day. The food was so flavorful. I’m coming back as soon as I can to get some more. Mahalo Konos

I went a few weeks ago and it was a chill place and they let us take our time deciding. I am not use to that from where I am so I didn’t know what to do at first. The nachos had a lot of meat and were delicious they could definitely feed two people. I got a sandwich with chips. It was big as well they have good portions for the amount you pay. The meat was very tender and flavorful. The milkshake I got was the strawberry cheesecake it was nice and sweet to end my meal with. I would stop by again for a good bite.

This Hawaiian Bowl was so good! Pork was tender and flavorful. Rice was cooked well and cabbage added a nice crunch. The thing that took it over was the guava BBQ sauce. I could drink the sauce, it was that good! The guy at the counter was really nice and patient. For the lemonade/limeade I asked what would pair well with the guava flavor and he recommended the lime. He wasn’t wrong. Definitely come here!

Sandwiches were amazing here! Got th triple crown with a side of Habanero sauce. Try it you won't regret it.

Saw this place online and decided to try it. We got the Pork Plate and the Sliders! Ended up ordering more sliders because they were THAT good. The evening manager really made the experience fantastic and was so kind and generous to everyone that walked in. Wish we lived in Hawaii or else this place would be a staple for us.

Great food, atmosphere, and fantastic staff that cares about your experience. After partially eating my food, I noticed I was given the wrong order, pointed it out to the cashier, and was given the correct order free of charge, after finishing the wrong order. This type of service is how all restaurants should treat their customers. Will be back!

Kono’s is an amazing little bbq place. Service is good I was greeted immediately. Super friendly. Amazing tasting food. Decent price 15 bucks for a decently sized sandwich. Even when I didn’t order a drink they offered a water cup. Definitely going to be coming back here.

Love this place! Great food and its value. People are always friendly and have great customer service. Feels like you're part of the Ohana there.

Great food and great service. We had planned to visit a Kono's last trip but never made it. This time we did and we will most definitely be back. I learned a Hawaiian phrase that fits this place. The food here "Broke Da Mout". I'm now sitting at home thinking about the "old school" sandwich and how good it was.
