    We tried Ono for the first time and were very impressed by its portion size! We ordered two combos (one with short rib and bbq chicken, second witth the same meats plus katsu chicken). We ordered to go, so not sure if that impacts the portion size. But I swear the meats weigh at least 1 pound lol! We went light on rice (1 portion) and went heavy on steamed veggies (2 portions) and are very happy with our choices. Our favorite meat is katsu as it has a nice crispy texture, followed by bbq chicken as it's pretty juicy and flavorful.

    The food here is great and the customer service is too . The wait isn't too bad either . Would always recommend this spot !

    Food Court Standout The three of us were all very impressed with the food and the amount of food we received at Ono Hawaiian BBQ. I had the Mixed BBQ and my styrofoam container was packed with beef, pork, and chicken on a bed of cabbage, rice, and macaroni salad. The flavor of each meat was solid. I used extra teriyaki sauce to mostly season the rice. I thought it was a real standout for food court food. It was our first visit, so we did have trouble figuring out what to order, but we pulled it off. While our order taker didn't help us, he was patient while we talked among ourselves. It didn't take us long. None of us remembered to order drinks, which our order taker could have pointed out but didn't, so we did a return trip to the counter. My food was not cut into bite sized pieces. Using plastic silverware to cut meat in that styrofoam container without having some of it hit the table was a pain, but I managed.

    Pretty good Hawaiian bbq! If you're craving something savoury and filling, then this is the place! It's a bit pricey but the portions are big.

    On the contrary to all the rest of the reviews, I think this place is pretty good! Sure, it's not the most incredible Hawaiian bbq food you ever had, but for mall food court, it's not bad at all. I had the Chicken Katsu. Portions were pretty good for the price point. Definitely not a bad choice in the sea of fast food. Would probably come here again if I went to the mall!

    Fatty beef/Chicken & Beef Combo

    If you like this food, you must seasoning your food with mayonnaise that's all I'm gonna say... I ordered the chicken and beef plate. The beef taste fake! A blend between impossible meat and beef jerky, #Horrible The Chicken Taste Very SUS And Shredded oddly for it to be chicken breast SMH I'm super hot because I spent $24 in DoorDash on something that was so disgusting.

    Ordered four different dishes from Ono Hawaiian BBQ (via Grubhub) and was very pleased with the meal. The food taste and quality is very similar to the Hawaiian plate lunch places in Hawaii (my home town). Enjoyed the chicken Katia plate, mixed meat kalbi and teriyaki beef plate, the chicken and beef combo and the chicken combo dishes. The macaroni salad was the highlight of the dish!

    Chicken katsu

    Flavor: 3/5 Quality: 3/5 Portions: 4/5 Hospitality: N/A (delivery) Cleanliness: N/A Atmosphere: N/A Cost: $$ (moderate) My order: chicken katsu, bbq beef pork Not bad, just your run if the mill Hawaiian bbq restaurant. Flavor was okay, portions were decent for the most part. The chicken katsu had a lot of breading unfortunately and not a ton of chicken. I think most people who enjoy Hawaiian bbq would be satisfied with this place. But there are definitely better joints to visit.

    Holy Cow... hasn't been here since pre-pandemic! So updated review based on a more recent visit. My…read moredad hadn't been here so it was a perfect time to give the ribs, brisket and tri-tip a try again. We got the 4 bbq deal that comes with 2 sides. Get the coupon online for $10 off! Ribs were the tastiest. Not overdone and slathered with their signature BBQ sauce. While I'm a dry rub person, the sauce was sugary but ok. The brisket was second and then the tri-tip was alright. Overall the beans and slaw sides and the garlic rolls were probably better than the tri-tip and the portions were so tiny for what you pay. So it is these days.... Though I do recall it feeling the same back on the day when I first tried out HC when they opened. They have a variety of brews on tap and happy hour not for the bbq but the sandwiches if you wanna not break the bank. Lots of salads and sandwich options if you wanted to not focus so much on the BBQ. Dining inside is ok. For a Friday night there weren't many people helping out in the front of house. Staff were friendly and it's got a chill vibe; they've got 2 TVs if you wanted to catch a game. Parking is the free valet kind since the shopping center is packed with eateries with little parking. From someone who's had BBQ from other parts of the country... not sure HC is a must have. But it's not a bad option on the west side that doesn't have much BBQ to write home about.

The chicken was really good and ate it all, I even used my hands to eat it, coleslaw was different but really good as well, and the garlic bread was exquisite. We shared the key lime pie which was exquisite. The ambience was amazing and the people who help us were awesome and very helpful.

Like many others, it seems they've started cutting corners. The quality of the food has noticeably declined, and it's clear the staff aren't being treated well. It's not surprising that people don't want to work here anymore. This location used to be one of the best, but that level of excellence is gone--and it doesn't seem like it's coming back. I honestly don't understand how it still holds a three-star rating; perhaps those reviews are coming from customers who haven't invested as much time or money here as my family and I have over the years. At this point, my biggest concern is for the employees. As the brand continues to decline, they'll be the ones forced to move on and find new opportunities. I genuinely wish them the best.

Yesterday's visit was not quite a five-star experience. I would rate it a 4.5, but I'm rounding up. I have always enjoyed the ambiance here.
