Don't let the modest exterior fool you--this place was a fantastic find. We ordered the Hawaiian BBQ Mix, which came with BBQ short ribs, chicken teriyaki, beef teriyaki, steamed rice, and macaroni salad. Everything was good, but the short ribs were the standout. They were so delicious that, if flights from Florida to California weren't so expensive, I'd seriously consider flying back just to have them again--though visiting family would be a nice bonus too! Prices are in the mid range, affordable for what you get. The dining area is small, with only a few tables, but the staff was very friendly during our visit. I'm not sure about the negative reviews mentioning service; perhaps things have changed, but our experience was completely positive, staff was super friendly, helpful and welcoming. If you're in Woodland, this is definitely a go-to spot. I'll absolutely be stopping by again when I return next year. Unfortunately, I didn't get a photo of our plate--it disappeared way too quickly! Give this place a try; you won't regret it. read more

I used to love this place, but unfortunately, this is not the first time I've been disappointed. There have been a couple of occasions when either the salad wasn't fresh or the chicken wasn't like it used to be. The staff has always been very nice, but today I disappointed once again. I ordered a double teriyaki plate. The chicken was okay, but honestly, it could have been better. When I was almost halfway through my macaroni salad, I came across a thin piece of metal. I was absolutely terrified, especially thinking about what could have happened if I had swallowed it. Finding metal in my food is extremely concerning and unacceptable. After this experience, I will not be ordering from this place again. read more

O Teriyaki - A piece of metal - Hawaiian Near Me - Woodland, California

O teriyaki has been around FOREVER and it's just as reliable now as it was back when I went in high school almost 2 decades ago. It's an easy casual spot with indoor dining. If you like plate lunches, this is a great place to come. I had the teriyaki chicken and teriyaki shrimp plat lunch. It cakes with generous servings of rice and mac salad along with lettuce. I loved my chicken and shrimp, the teriyaki sauce was great! The Mac salad was also solid, I ate it all! You order at the counter and then pick your table, then they bring your food out to you once it's ready. The gentlemen working there were both super kind, we never felt rushed. My cousin got the bbq beef noodles and they looked great! Will definitely try those next time! Can't recommend supporting this small local business enough! read more

We found this place while driving down I-5. Not necessarily a quick stop but worth the short detour. If you're on a road trip and sick of fast food, this is one comfort food that will keep you full until your next stop. The person at the service counter is helpful and accommodating but it's just like any over the counter service. Not much of an ambiance but who cares if the food is pretty fire, right? One thing to watch out for is making sure that what's advertised on their board is included in the meal you're ordering. I ordered the bbq plate that should have come with a tossed salad and the cashier said it really doesn't. I'm not going to argue but the menu board said it does. read more

The chicken teriyaki is over the top. Fabulous! Quick service although, I received my food delivered. It was hot and securely packed. Very Tasty! read more

A cockroach came out on the wall while my son was refilling his drink. Flies flying around inside. The food was mediocre. The meat is all dark chicken, no option for chicken breast. I hope they get inspected. To the owner. Please get rid of your cockroaches. read more

O Teriyaki - Metal shaving in chicken katsu - Hawaiian Near Me - Woodland, California

This place is the bomb! With today's high prices; this place definitely gives you your money's worth! I ordered the three piece BBQ mix and they gave me a nice mound of BBQ chicken, BBQ beef, two big pieces of BBQ short ribs, two scoops of rice, and Mac salad. Everything was delicious! But my favorite was the short ribs hands down. They were tender and flavorful. I wish they had kimchi. It would've been perfect with that meal. The person who took my order was very nice. I like how you can fill small to go containers with their teriyaki and sriracha sauces. I usually fill one with Teri sauce and another with half teri and half sriracha sauce! If you want a great meal at an affordable price, this is your place! read more

This place rocks! I'm from out of town but whenever I am in town I come here for some delish hawaiian BBQ. The meats are grilled to perfection. The rice tastes like clouds from heaven. Drinks are abundant and plentiful. Service IS AMAZING - YOU CAN CALL AHEAD AND PLACE AN ORDER HERE. Ambiance is cute, it's a local favorite for sure. PS: Love their sauce? You can actually buy it by the jar! read more

I just went there for the first time and I ordered a chicken teriyaki and went home and no teriyaki sauce and so I called and the rude dude in the phone says you should of red the sign you have to ask for it...seriously it's teriyaki why would I want it dry. It was about 6pm on 7/6. Never going back the rudeness of this young man. Like he said you should read the signs!!! read more

Unfortunately, this place has become overpriced for what you get. The prices have gone up, but the portions have gotten smaller. While the taste is still the same, the value just isn't there anymore. I also ordered the sweet potato fries -- and never again. They were soggy and cold, which was really disappointing. read more

We love the food! So good! Never been disappointed. Kinda a small hole in the wall. But it's fine don't go, more for me! :) jk

During my visit today at O Teriyaki, I was truly impressed with the level of customer service. Gabby was completely hands-on, managing back-to-back orders in person and over the phone without missing a beat. She remained professional, kind, and positive the entire time, even while clearly working under a time crunch. Gabby took the time to answer questions about the menu, explained which items might take longer to prepare, and made sure customers had accurate time frames. That level of communication really stood out. On top of that, she was consistently cleaning tables as guests left, making sure new customers walked into a clean and welcoming space. Gabby is absolutely the reason I would come back -- we need more people like her in customer service. And to top it off, the food was great as well! read more

O Teriyaki - Thai Chicken - Hawaiian Near Me - Woodland, California

Yummy yum yum!! I'm from hawaii, and I MISS my Hawaiian bbq plate spots back home. I 100% recommend this place. They even have the Hawaiian canned juices which made my little heart even happier. Don't go to L&L here in CA it's nothing like Hawaii L&L, come here instead. The kalbi is my absolute favorite. I've been here few times before as well and realized I've never written a review. I have also told friends about this place and they all have said it's delicious. Service takes a bit but it's because they're cooking the meat fresh! Good things take time . PLEASE start up a location in Sacramento, you'll be so popular. The mixed barbecue plate was $18 and a few cents and I got a lot of meat so it's definitely a big bang for your book. I have leftovers to have dinner later tonight. read more

O Teriyaki - Hawaiian BBQ Mix - Hawaiian Near Me - Woodland, California

Food is great, service not so much! I placed a phone order and when I came to pick up the cashier girl was very rude and disrespectful. She didn't know my order and when I asked about it she had no idea and then proceeded to give a nasty attitude and smirk on her face. I walked out. No food is worth rude service. Hate to waste the whole plate they made but oh well get better employees read more

Excellent food. We had the chicken teriyaki/pot sticker lunch special and Thai chicken with noodles. The grilled meats were stellar and the rice perfectly cooked. The noodles were udon with a little bit of vegetables mixed in which I appreciated. Servings were generous. Didn't care for the potstickers, they were deep fried with a vinegar sauce drizzled on. They were a bit hard to bite through. Service was good. Food is cooked to order so there is a bit of a wait. The restaurant is situated in a little business strip mall, a bit out of the way. Simple, basic decor. BUT the air conditioner was blasting and it was uncomfortably cold. We did not like the modern pop music which was playing. If the ambience was comfortable this would rate 5. As it is, I would say 3 1/2. I'll be back for sure, but only to pickup takeout. read more

First time there and we had the chicken teriyaki. It was awesome. Looking forward to going back there and trying other items from the extensive menu. This is one on our list of go to places for good food. If you are in search of a good place to eat try this place you won't be disappointed. read more

Really like the Thai chicken, eat lunch here about once a week. Good service, the staff is very nice

The best Japanese Teriyaki around. Better than any Hawaiian chain restaurant. Flavor is so on point. People travel just to come back here. Get all the meats. Get the Mac salad. Get a chilled Hawaiian soda. Dine in or take out. It's good yesterday, today, tomorrow. It's always good! (Yesterday would be in your memories lol). Basically, once you have O Teriyaki, you're always going to want this kind and not any other. Call ahead, they take cash and card. Deposit is required for tray orders. read more

So bad I can't even give a star. Employee tonight was rude, combative and unwilling to take a new order, after receiving a spicy order. Will not ever recommend that establish. Asked for owners name and she told me to look it up. read more

Went in to order 4 Party Trays (2 of them meats), they said I cannot get a free party tray of rice because I need to order 3 meat trays. I told them the website does not say "meat party trays" it only says "party trays". Party trays are also very small. Restaurant should honor what they post on their website, or at least until they change the wording on their website to be accurate. read more

I had no idea that there was a teriyaki/Hawaiian bbq joint in woodland and I was really pleasantly surprised. They offer both Hawaiian bbq and teriyaki, although the style is more like teriyaki with bento boxes. I got the spicy chicken/ teriyaki chicken combo and my friend got Hawaiian bbq beef. Both were good. The meat wasn't as greasy/fatty as most Hawaiian bbq is which was a huge plus. The portions are large and it was super filling. The price is reasonable. The insides of the restaurant are really nothing to write home about. There are a handful of tables inside and it's bare-bones. Also, ordering on the spot did take about 20 minutes to get food which was a bit slower than I would expect for the style of food. I would recommend calling ahead and ordering your food to go. They seemed to do a really good take-out business and there was a constant stream of people picking up orders. Parking is a bit limited and many spots are marked as short-term only. This wasn't an issue when we went, but if it was really crowded I could see it being more of a problem. Thankfully you could easily park a ways away and be fine, but the spots directly out front are limited. I will definitely be getting food here again, but probably will opt to get my food to go. read more

O Teriyaki - Bottom Left: BBQ Short Ribs Top Right: Thai Chicken Noodle - Hawaiian Near Me - Woodland, California

Tasty lunch spot that's around the corner from my work. Several coworkers recommended it. Hawaiian and Japanese cuisine. Easy for takeout although they do have decent seating inside as well. The food was great. They were definitely busy during lunch hour, but the service was good. I tried the Thai chicken garlic noodles. The staff recommended getting the noodles mild since the Thai chicken is already spicy, and I think that was good advice. The Thai chicken had a little kick. The sweetness of the noodles balanced it out. Very good and easy lunch spot. I'll definitely come back. read more

Don't judge this little restaurant by its location or by the way it looks because they serve some good chicken teriyaki and rice combos. I always get mine to go. If you're wanting some chicken teriyaki and don't want to go to a sushi restaurant, this may be your answer. read more

Takeout Ordered takeout to feed our large gathering (mostly kids) at my sisters house in Natomas. They brought home a bunch of entrées in to go boxes and we ate as family style. The entrées came with steamed rice, macaroni salad and toss salad. The Hawaiian plates included 2 scoops of rice and macaroni salad. Bowls were served with 1 scoop of rice. The menu was extensive but these were the ones I got to taste: Vegetable Noodle Chicken Teriyaki BBQ Short Ribs Salmon Teriyaki The BBQ short ribs was delicious and the strips of meat were huge. The Kalbi-marinated beef ribs were tender and very tasty. So onolicious and generous in their serving. The salmon teriyaki was another one I enjoyed as I love a good salmon dish. Yummy grilled Atlantic salmon! Hope to make it to the restaurant one day to dine in. I'd like to try their Loco Moco. The prices were affordable. Located in Woodland the restaurant serves authentic Japanese and Hawaiian cuisine. Review #2355 read more

The food isn't bad but I made an online order for pickup and almost an hour later I went to go pick it up and they didn't have it ready. The worker at the register proceeded to get mad at me like it was my fault that the food wasn't ready. I went to go ask for an update on my food and she was still mad at me...at that point I wasn't even hungry anymore. I asked to get my order refunded and she couldn't even help me with that. read more

We eat here once a week sometimes twice it's that good! Service is also good and pretty quick as well. Overall a good experience

This place deserves a ZERO STAR REVIEW. stay away from this place as they don't care for customers service even if they mistakenly make your food incorrect. Food is expensive for its quality and the restaurant is dirty. read more

A colleague of mine raved about this place so I called to place an order in advance. After getting no response to several rings, I waited and called back later. The phone continued to ring with no one answering. I called two more times over a period of time and no one answered. I thought perhaps they were closed so I drove down the street which was about five minutes from my place of employment. There was a line of people waiting for their food and a few more in line waiting to order which was a good sign to me. I ordered the Kalua pork which included macaroni salad, and rice. I could smell the smoke from the Kahlúa pork through the closed container, which was placed in a plastic bag; again, all a good sign! When I got to back to work, I opened the container and was a bit disappointed that the scoops of macaroni salad were so small and the rice was also meager. I ordered the Kahlúa pork with cabbage and my first taste was nothing but salt. The second bite was equally salty. I'm suspecting that they drenched the Kalua pork in a liquid smoke of some kind. The sodium was so strong that it literally burned my mouth. For the amount of money I paid plus the tip, I felt forced to eat it but truth be told, I paid a ridiculous amount of money for two pathetic scoops of macaroni salad, and some rice. I had to throw away the pork because I couldn't eat it. Perhaps the other items on the menu are delicious but my Kalua pork was awful. The customer service was not on point, it was inconvenient that I couldn't place an order over the phone but sat in their restaurant about 20 minutes waiting for my food. This isn't a place I'm in a hurry to give my business too. read more

The location is well...in Woodland. It isn't the best but it also isn't the worst. It's in an industrial corner of Woodland in between other random businesses. The service is also pretty decent. The cashier offered friendly advice on what to get but it did take a while for the food to come out. I don't think this would be a good place to do your homework without distractions. Being my second time coming here, I've noticed that spongebob is ALWAYS playing on the TV, it's a nice little quirk. The prices are great, you can walk out for under $20 for two. They also offer little stamp cards for a free entree after a certain amount of visits. They have a ton of noodle and rice options with meal variations galore. They have few vegetarian/vegan options on the menu besides rice or plain noodles :( The food was pretty good. Slightly above your average noodles but nothing game changing. My dad says, and I quote "the macaroni salad is the best on earth. I've tried many places, even in Europe, and this is the best one". The spicy noodles are VERY SPICY BE WARNED. I'm talking 11/10 spicy. The type of spice that will make you take off your shirt to cool down. My nose was running snot for hours! Bottom Line/TLDR: great prices for the food read more

Just tried this place recently, & they have great food. Tried both the Thai & honey chicken plates & they were amazing. They have a stamp card rewards program which is cool. The potstickers come with this great sauce that is just slightly spicier than a traditional potsticker sauce! read more

I wouldn't give this place ZERO stars. The reason being my friend and I came here for lunch and he is terribly allergic to shellfish, but this isn't all they sell so we came. He always orders calamari bc it does not have shellfish... we'll they definitely did NOT use clean oil when frying the calamari. A few hours later his face was swollen, with his eyes almost completely shut and he felt itchy all over. THIS IS NOT A SAFE PLACE TO EAT!! Be ware!!! read more

Always delicious! I've been eating here off and on for 6 years now and they have never disappointed me. I just shared a Katsu plate and an order of Honey Chicken Noodles with my family for lunch and it was delicious. The honey chicken especially. JUST the right amount of char on the chicken to give it that delicious grilled flavor. Also the fact that they stock Hawaiian Sun drinks is a huge plus. Yum!! read more

Ono is literally less than 250 feet walking distance from my office (until we move to West Sac) and you just can't ignore the delicious BBQ grill smells when walking back and forth between our office/lab buildings across the parking lot. I have since started a stamp card and so far have tried one of the daily lunch specials (teriyaki chicken and pot stickers), chicken teriyaki bowl, beef teriyaki entree, honey chicken. The thai chicken is pretty spicy, as is the spicy chicken (breaded). I haven't yet tried the sesame chicken, katsu, kalua pork or salmon. Unfortunately the macaroni salad has zero taste to me, so I usually sub extra rice instead of mac or green salad. The teriyaki sauce has a big dispenser next to the water for people who can't get enough of the sweet stuff (pro tip: drown the rice in teriyaki!). Two TVs inside while you wait. They also have Hawaiian nectar canned drinks, and other things in the cold case. Generous portions. They actually open pretty early at 10AM. I'm curious about the Korean short ribs, tempura, loco moco and seafood/fish and chips. Too bad they don't have spam musubi on their Hawaiian menu. Phone/call in your order ahead and do NOT bother using the online ordering feature through Yelp, just don't waste your time. Otherwise it does tend to be a bit of a wait during lunchtime. I prefer the beef teriyaki over the chicken teriyaki, and one entree order is enough for two meal sittings for me personally. read more

Horrible service closed an hour earlier then what the time stamp said they closed by.

Chicken Teriyaki never disappoints. By far one of the best "Hawaiian" joint around. Pro tip: Grab a few extra little containers of teriyaki sauce to pour over your chicken/rice. It's a self serve area directly south of the cash register. They move it around, so don't quote me on that. read more
