    "No working Restrooms"
    Angie T.

    Health code violation for not having working restrooms during business hours during the Ballard Salmonfest. Update in response - I don't care why it's out of order, it needs to be fixed. And it's pretty sad that you're blaming homeless people for your lack of response to fixing the issue. It's a health code violation and your business could be shut down.

    Cute place inside and the staff were nice. I didn't realize this place was a chain and it gives decent portion sizes and it was really good. Overpriced as usual and you have to pay extra for zucchini noodles and avocado $1-$1.50 which is normal I think. I just love how you can pick what you want so it's everything you like. Spent around $20 per bowl. They also sell bubble tea on the opposite side of the restaurant.

    Another poke place and I wish I could give it 5 stars as the service is so awesome here! But remaining fair balanced, have to review the quality of food. First they weigh each scoop on the scale - okay, I get it but wow seemed so intense to be taking the little chopped piece of fish and taking it out from the scale back into the tub. I opted for a large size which enables you to get three protein choices - I went for non flavored salmon, spicy scallop, and spicy tuna. Once they are weighed out, they all get tossed in a sauce you pick. Seems so strange this mixture gets al tossed when some come already flavored... Fish pieces overall were smaller compared to some of the competitor poke places and I wished it had a little bit more of a bite to it. All the toppings were okay and I bet I'll be back here as there's a very convenient DIY tea lab boba in the same location.

    Poke bowl!

    Updated review from 2 Months ago…read more.. I've been back roughly 6 times from my previous review of Kona Kitchen. Then it was too many staff, not many customers and it was difficult to get service, that has been improved upon. They are nice and attentive when they see you. Service was normal, the wait staff came around and offered more beverage. This time it was still slow period, so what gives it only 3 stars instead of more? It's the fact that the main door the employee use to go into the kitchen to give their orders to the cooks had cob webs on the top of the door.i mean everyone of them walk through that door hundreds of times throughout the week because I could tell it's been there for some time. Where's the food inspector, should be a concern because if it's there in full view of customers and employees, what else is happening as far as cleanliness at Kona Kitchen. I will be there within two or three days and wonder if the cobweb will still be a fixture there... it's something that is annoying because nobody's done anything about it. Amazing.

Thankfully dine-in is back open again, so we got here on a Saturday morning around 11:20am to indoor seating that was nearly full and a small line that was forming at the front counter. Walls have a bunch of photo frames, and overall place felt very homely. They have a ton of Hawaiian style plates and even burgers and some seafood, though we and most others got the former to eat. I ordered their chicken and pork combo Hawaiian style plate, and my bestie got their chicken katsu Hawaiian style plate. Portions are huge for both plates and both also came with macaroni salad. They give you sooooo much meat no matter what you get. To go in slightly more detail: - Chicken and pork combo: both meats were flavored very well, and a little sweet too though pretty salty without using the rice as a palette cleanser. Chicken had more depth in its flavor; the pork's flavor was a little too much for my liking, and was slightly harder to chew. Both meats had some sauce hat went onto the rice itself. This didn't detract from my overall experience here, though. - Chicken katsu: we both agreed this was our favorite after exchanging pieces of each other's dish. The katsu is crispy and crunchy, and the chicken itself retained a lot of its juiciness. Katsu sauce on the side is honestly optional since the meat itself is already salty enough. This place does share extremely limited parking with Cakes of Paradise next door, so get here early or be prepared to drive around the area to find some. Just get here, it's a place you can't pass up when you hit up Georgetown!

I would have to say the most thing I enjoyed the most was the chili pepper water, it added the tanginess that the chicken needed and I was very pleased with the spice level. I am used to spice but this had a kick to it. I wish they sold the chili pepper water in bottles I would have loved to take more home! Can't wait to try their saimin and more items on the menu.

    I visited Ono Poke on a Saturday afternoon to pick up my preorder for Butter Bandit and decided I…read moremight as well also get a bowl of poke. This was at 12:30PM and there was a long line out the door and around the corner, taking almost 30 minutes. I had previously visited on a rainy winter weekday for lunch and there wasn't a line at all. What a difference the day and weather can make! While in line we could see the chefs cutting up ahi fresh right in front. The longer line gave me time to chat with the owner as he was trimming off the skin and other bits. I learned that tuna skin is much tougher than salmon skin so can't be eaten like salmon skin chips. He also said that the trimmed parts can be taken for free if anyone wants them. Apparently they make good crab bait! Medium w/ Rice, Traditional Limu Ahi, Hamachi, Mac Salad ($21.50) - I love the Hamachi poke mix. It's fresh, tender, and buttery fish tossed in a creamy and slightly spicy sauce, filled with little briny pearls and plenty of aromatics giving a super umami bite. The Limu Ahi is very fresh as well - I mean, it's sliced right in front, and there's so much turnover of the food that's it's pretty much guaranteed fresh. The tuna is fresh and tender, but there's noticeably more sinew compared to the hamachi. The Mac Salad is also really good. It's super creamy and the macaroni isn't overcooked so it still has some bite. The rice is unfortunately the weakest item in the bowl. It's a little too dry for my tastes and is only lightly tossed with rice vinegar, giving a tangy flavor. Overall all the poke is fresh, the flavors all meld together into a delightful balanced bite, and the sauces are not overwhelming. Ono Poke definitely serves some great poke!
