This sauce tasted like something I could squeeze out of a store bought bottle. On the other hand, the Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage was phenomenal! I have to say the best one I've had. It has a snap and once snapped, you can see the cheese oozing out, and once you bite into it, you get that kick from the jalapeno! This recipe is mastered. I'd travel a distance to get this. The potato salad and coleslaw are good sides. *Before you leave, check your order. When I was waiting for my food, a couple had to come back because an item was missing. I checked my order and an item was missing too but thankfully I double checked because of what happened to the couple.

I got a fountain drink, and three different drink options I tried were all flat. The cashier was very nice about it and had no problem letting me switch to a bottled drink, which I really appreciated. What made the experience awkward was that when she went to the back to mention the issue, I could hear her saying, "It really is flat," as if she was confirming it to the cooks. It honestly felt like they thought I was making it up. After that, the ladies in the kitchen kept staring at us, which made us feel judged and uncomfortable. It was kind of funny looking back, but also a little weird. The cashier handled everything professionally, so no complaints there--I just wish the kitchen staff had been a little more welcoming instead of making us feel like we were being watched.

I ordered a plate of crispy hashbrowns topped with tender pulled pork, smothered in rich, creamy gravy, and sprinkled with fresh jalapeños for a perfect kick. It was comforting without being heavy, like a warm hug you didn't know you needed. But the best part? They had fun flavored mimosas that made brunch feel like a celebration. We tried a few different flavors, and each one was bright, refreshing, and paired perfectly with the savory food. (Rachel Green would approve.) The staff was friendly, kept the coffee refills coming, and made us feel welcome without hovering. The prices were fair, and the portions were generous enough to leave you full but not overly stuffed. If you're looking for a cozy spot with great food, good vibes, and a reason to say "How you doin'?" to your mimosa, this is it. Can't wait to come back and bring friends for a brunch round two.

For me, food ratings are more important, but…read morehere's my review: Ambiance- my wife and I were sitting at the table top bar and you can really smell the bathroom from where we were sitting. Service- the staff were nice, but they were slow. Granted, there was a large table ahead of us, so +1 for that Food- I ordered the kalua pork and rice. The kalua pork was probably reheated on the griddle, kind of salty, it was meh. The biggest disappointment was the rice. It was hard. For a "Hawaiian" restaurant to not know how to cook rice is sad. This place has potential. I don't know if they are tired or don't have that spark. Maybe they need a new location. The park across the street has a bunch of unhoused folks.

I've been to this specific Ono Hawaiian BBQ location multiple times, as well as a few other…read morelocations, and one thing I appreciate is the consistency. The food has always tasted good no matter which location I've visited. The restaurant itself was clean overall. I'd give the cleanliness a 7/10 because while the dining area was well maintained and air conditioned, the sauce bar was a bit messy. Not a huge issue, but enough to notice. I also like the self-order kiosks. They're a great option if you have social anxiety or simply prefer not to order at the counter, while still giving you the choice to order from a cashier if you want that person-to-person interaction. The cashier wasn't rude, but she also wasn't very friendly. She seemed like she just didn't want to be there, which I understand it's a job, and everyone has off days. Still, friendly service makes a difference, and it's one reason I couldn't rate this place higher. I've been to smaller local restaurants where the staff are incredibly welcoming, and that really enhances the overall experience. As for the food, it was good and consistent. The portions felt fair for the price, and I honestly think one plate is enough for two people to share, depending on your appetite. Everything looked well prepared, nothing was overcooked or dry, and it tasted fresh. Wait time wasn't too bad either under 10mins. They also had lunch specials available, but since I didn't order one this visit, I can't really comment on the value of those. Overall, I think 3 stars is fair. It's a solid place that I would come back to because the food is consistently good and reasonably priced. I just don't have much to rave about beyond that. Good, reliable food but not an exceptional experience.

Marisa went above and beyond to assist me. She took the time to understand the situation and helped me get a refund for the order, even though it had been placed at a different location. Her professionalism, kindness, and willingness to help turned a stressful situation into a positive experience. Outstanding customer service like this is rare, and Marisa truly deserves recognition. Thank you for your patience and dedication to helping customers. I'll definitely continue supporting the Manteca location anytime I'm in town because of service like this!

If you'd like extra sauce or condiments, you just need to ask. As a vegetarian, I was happy to see they had an option for me. I also appreciated that the vegetarian ramen broth is prepared separately and isn't mixed with the meat broths. I ordered the Spicy Vegetarian Ramen, and it arrived at my table quickly. It had great flavor, plenty of vegetables, and tofu. The tofu wasn't my favorite type since I prefer firm tofu, but it didn't take away from how much I enjoyed the soup. It definitely had a spicy kick! I ended up with leftovers, and it was easy to take them home since you simply grab a takeout container and pack your food yourself. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal and would come back.
