    Hawaiian BBQ Mix
    Peter L.

    Got the hawaiian bbq mix, huge portion, great value, good mac & cheese. The bbq were delish albeit a bit greasy, my tummy didnt feel too good afterwards. Nothing wrong with the food it was my typical reaction to greasy stuff

    Hawaiian BBQ Chicken aloha plate. Chicken could be hotter.
    Erica M.

    Ordered the $7 online special the "Aloha plate". Got one Hawaiian BBQ chicken aloha plate and one katsu chicken aloha plate. The katsu chicken was hot and crunchy. Their Hawaiian BBQ chicken was good in taste however it was warm at best. Both plates came with rice and salad. The salads were very fresh and nicely dressed. Overall for the $7 price it was well worth giving this place a try again. ***Solid 3.75 stars (See pics for reference).

    close to home, clean and modern inside, quick service if you are not placing a catering order, and the pricing is average. Food is really good! our number one Hawaiian spot in Fremont!

    Island Fire Chicken and Chicken Katsu.  100% get the Island Fire Chicken
    Mark A.

    I tried this spot for lunch the other day, first time for me. Walked in around 12 noon and wasn't too busy. After quickly looking over the menu, I opted for the 2 meat plate which comes with rice and a side salad. The "fire chicken" was being promoted, so I decided to give it a try. I went with the katsu as my second for a safe bet. They have dispensers for katsu sauce and teriyaki sauce. The katsu sauce was much better in my opinion, the teriyaki was a bit too thick and over powering. - Fire chicken 10/10. Damn, this was some of the most flavorful chicken I've ever had. Tender and juicy, with a very vibrant red sauce. The flavor was sweet, tangy, and also spicy. It was very well balanced and the favor did not lose effect with each next bite. It did come with thick cut onions, they were a bit too raw for my taste, but no big deal as this chicken was insanely good. - Chicken katsu 8/10. It was good but nothing too special. Your basic katsu you'll find at all the hawaiin bbq spots. Absolutely needs katsu sauce as the breading is very dry and crunchy. The side salad is decent, fresh and has favor. Rice was hot and pairs will with meats that have a lot of sauce to soak up. Overall, good quality and tasty food, though I think the prices are a bit high overall.

    Always reliable fast and good when I'm in Fremont for work. I prefer the kalua pork which is moist and very little fat. They let me get all rice. The katsu chicken was a bit dry so I don't get that anymore. I also always get a Hawaiian Sun which is a treat for me. Sometimes I eat there and the lights are all LED and other times to go. Easy to park.

    Katsu & Teriyaki Sauce

    I'm surprised that I've never been coming here for over a couple years I believe. This is usually my go to places for Hawaiian food. I've been going here for years and the food is quite amazing. The food is nicely grilled and the vegetables especially the lettuce tastes as fresh as it can get. For a restaurant that has multiple locations, the inside isn't quite bad, but it doesn't often get crowded as people usually do takeouts.

    BBQ & Katsu Mix

    Came here on a Sunday night and it wasn't busy. I ordered the bbq and katsu mix and it was delicious! The portion was pretty big and I opted for 2 Mac salads and 1 scoop of rice. The meat was cooked really well and the teriyaki sauce was amazing. The service was pretty great too as we got our food in less than 15 minutes.

    Chicken Katsu

    Ordered through Uber for delivery. Food came and the chicken katsu was still crispy. I bit into it and realized why. It's majority breading... food is good, but can not believe the skimpy amount for the price paid.

    Ono Hawaiian BBQ Hula Guava Pie - Just crust, no guava filling inside.

    Sold me a pie with no filling. Still looking for my refund. The food was "okay". Manager won't come to phone.

    I'm not sure why this specific location of Ono only has a 3-star rating. it's probably the best hawaiian food spot in the area and the food is always consistently good

    Island spiced grilled fish aloha plate
    Caitlin N.

    Love the value of this special item...$7.75 for 2 scoops of rice, fresh salad and loaded with fresh white fish seasoned perfectly with a slight kick...this price only till 5/15 so y'all need to go get yours soon...

    Chicken Katsu
    Angelina N.

    This specific location's having a really great BOGO running until the second week of September, which is how I got to try this. The katsu's nice and crispy, and really pairs perfectly with the available sauce. It's an insane amount of food for one plate (14.99), so be prepared to split it with others! The Mac salad is amazingly refreshing cold and the steamed vegetables underneath are mildly sweet, which is nice. The chicken was slightly chewy, but the juiciness made up for it. My siblings and I brought it home from take-out and it was still crispy and warm. Definitely a good, reasonably priced joint for lunch- especially if there's a deal!

    Hawaiian BBQ Chicken

    We ordered Hawaiian BBQ chicken and chicken katsu. Chicken is very tender and nicely seasoned. Portion is big. The restaurant also provides free flow of teriyaki and katsu sauce. Spam musubi is classic. Great place for a quick meal!

    Where is my sauce!!!

I really enjoyed the pork adobo, it had melt in mouth texture and great flavorful and went really well with the garlic rice. The Hawaiian char siu chicken burrito was good too but I liked the pork adobo plate more. The service was wonderful and they really make you feel at home. Very kind folks, definitely come support them!

I was excited to try a variety of dishes with my friends, and as expected, we ordered a ton and finished every single bite.

The seasoning on the skewers was spot on and thoughtfully varied depending on the dish. Everything was cooked perfectly, the meat was tender, juicy, and full of flavor.

    A Sack of Potatoes. I remember when this place was about to open over 5 years ago. I totally…read morethought it was going to be a potato themed fast casual resto doing things like different variants on French fries or stuffed baked potatoes. Boy was I so off the mark. Lol. It is a Chinese tea/boba shop with a super unique Asian fusion-y type of food. They have musubis, gyozas, fried snacks and even some substantial meals like noodle soups and bentos. I haven't tried much of their offerings but in what I have, have not been bad at all. I've only had a couple of versions of milk teas here for drinks. They run about $7ish and are in big cups (at least 16oz). I like them at the 30% sweet level, still a tad sweet but also refreshing. I'd like the tea flavor to be a tad stronger but it is fine here. Gyoza ($7ish/3.5*) these are small lightly deep fried dumplings. Probably from frozen but as a quick cheap snack, most would be satisfied. I was. Spam Musubi ($10/4*) You get 3 fairly large musubis, which is a lot for me. I do 2 as a meal and do the other as a snack later in the day. The rice to spam ratio leans heavy on the rice part. But their rice is unique as there's some toasted rice specs that give the bites a toasty note. Kinda like the crisp rice on the bottom of a claypot dish. Not in texture but in aroma. Never had a musubi like this. There is a good layer of thick sweet teriyaki sauce which I can do without but does bring that sweet n salty principle into effect. This may become my anchor dish here as it's kinda hard to find a good musubi in this town. Pretty stylish space, loud music I think they are targeting that 16-22 age frame. You order through a kiosk which I don't mind but I find theirs to be very clunky with a lot of prompts and not easy progression. But I get my haircut in the same complex so before I hop back in my car, I can set myself up with a refreshment/treat. A useful and local hit-up.

The ones that did have yam inside were great. The spam musubi with egg and American cheese is top tier though! Great seasoned rice, thick cut of spam, and a nice sweet egg. The service is friendly but the wait was very long, about a half hour. While the inside while cute and cozy, was extremely hot/un air conditioned. Just left disappointed because of the lack of sago in a drink that's revolved around sago, the hot environment, and the long wait.

I would eat here again, but I think there are better choices in Fremont.

    We were trying to figure out what to have for lunch and decided it was the day we tried Pop's Cafe…read more I kept seeing this pop up as an option on my searches so I was excited to try out this food. In short, it was ok. I wasn't blown away but it's definitely a hefty meal if you're needing something to last you all day. L O C A T I O N It's directly in front of Home Depot on Auto Mall Parkway. Like literally in front of the Home Depot in this little hut area. The parking situation is easy as it's the same lot as the large Home Depot parking lot. I N S I D E It's a small covered area with a few chairs but don't expect to have a gigantic group be here. We ordered to go. M E N U The menu is a mish mash of things from hot dogs, hamburgers, to Latin and Hawaiian flavors. We opted to get a Loco Moco and carne asada burrito. The Loco Moco felt a bit standard. It comes with two hamburger patties and two eggs. I'm not sure if they make their hamburger patties there but it seemed like your standard frozen burger patties. The gravy was a good salty balance to everything. The mac salad is a little heavy on the bell pepper flavor even though there's not much in there. I was burping that up all day. But then again, I have a bit of intolerance to bell peppers so beware if you do also. There's a good amount of rice and I love me a good amount of rice with gravy. The carne asada burrito was sizeable. Lots of meat, rice, and beans and a bit of lettuce. S E R V I C E A nice lady took our order and also let us know they did take over this spot from the original owners about a year or so ago. We paid easily and got our food in a timely manner. O V E R A L L As I mentioned, the food was fine and okay. Good especially if you want something really hearty which a lot of folks who go to Home Depot need energy to sustain their work! I can see why it's thriving in that spot. So I would suggest ordering, then doing your Home Depot shopping, and your food should be ready to go by the time you come out....well if you're doing a quick trip of course. They also have $5 specials which is nice. Try them out!
