    Came here for a restroom stop and decided to get some snackies for the road. Ordered spam musubi (comes with two) for a quick and easy hand held bite. Although there was no one inside the restaurant, there were a lot of orders from the Drive Thru. So it took a little while to get my order, but it was worth the wait. The spam musubis came out fresh and hot. Definitely was made to order and delicious. Definitely satisfied my snack craving. Grateful for this spot right off the 99 freeway with clean and large bathrooms. As a new mom, I have been making notes everywhere, and this one had no changing table in the bathroom for babies. Wouldn't mind stopping here again on my next road trip down south from Sacramento.

    Island White Fish Mini Meal
    Nobuyuki S.

    This is the second time I've tried Ono Hawaiian BBQ. The previous time the people were friendly and ready. I apparently, caught them in the middle of a conversation and they didn't seem to care that much. I ordered the Island White Fish mini meal. The person at the counter called my number after about ten minutes and he didn't wait to hand me the food. Another customer mentioned that he dropped that just when he called the number. He remembered that I mentioned chopsticks and brought some to me at the counter. I'm not sure why he put "to go" on the order but he seemed to do that regardless. The food was as good as the location on the west side. While you don't have to be a rocket scientist, you have to pay attention and someone was paying attention. Four stars for the food, three stars for the service. It's not easy to walk there but there is a sidewalk, if you can find it. There are also EV chargers in the same lot.

    Grilled teriyaki chicken breast dinner.

    I love Ono Hawaii. Fresh option and affordable pricing. I always get the grilled chicken teriyaki breast. I love that they have grilled chicken breast option because I am not a dark meat fan. My parents love the kalua pork. The plates come with rice, macaroni salad and vegetables. Tonight I got a side of the kalua pork to try. It is amazing too. Definitely recommend. They have been consistently good. Staff is nice and frindly as well.

    2 Item Plate - Teriyaki & Spicy Chicken meats served with salad and rice.

    Visited this restaurant today for the 1st time. We had tasted their food via a banquet that we had been to a few months ago. We remembered that we like what we had been served so we decided to try it tonight. We were literally right around the corner from it today. Glad we did. We each bought a 2 item plate. Plenty of meat and very fresh. My wife ordered the BBQ Chicken & Chicken Katsu. I had the Teriyaki Chicken and Spicy Chicken (See Picture below). Each was served with Salad and rice. We also ordered their Macaroni Salad which is pretty tasty. We will bd going back again.

    On 11/19/2025 I ordered one Hawaiian BBQ chicken and one Teriyaki chicken.I asked Valentina if the chicken was freshly cooked or was it sitting around.she said it was freshly cooked.I ordered to go,when i arrived home i opened the container it was obvious the chicken was sitting around.This is the second time this has happened,I'am very disappointed.I payed$28.32 for dried chicken.I would like to be compensated.

    I've had Ono's many many times in the Bay Area (Hayward & Fremont) but I was surprised to see different ratings for the locations in the valley. I got the mixed meat combo with an order of spam masubi. Both were good but I wouldn't say it was amazing. I would for sure order from them again. I can't comment on the location itself as I order delivery; however, I can say ordering was smooth and easy.

    Who Doesn't like BBQ???? Especially Hawaiian Bbq Mix Homie!!! Every Time I have Hawaiian Food it reminds me of my Younger Days rolling around Oahu or Maui!!!! Good Times and Good Food Yo !!! So I was rolling around Manteca and it was Lunch time!!! This Ono Hawaiian Bbq Restaurant happens to be right around the corner from one of my Customers. So I decided to Roll by and Stop for Lunch!!! There was Plenty of Parking in their Lot. So I stashed my Whip there and there are Electric Car Charging Stations there. I rolled in like a Boss and was Greeted by the Cashier. I perused the Menu and ordered the Hawaiian Bbq Mix Plate and a Large Coke!!! I paid by Credit Card and grabbed a Table. My Food was Delivered to my Table Piping Hot and Fresh by a Cute Brunette Cashier with a Nice Smile!!! I started to Eat my Food!!! It was Delicious and Cooked to Perfection !! Lots of Veggies!!! Could have used more Proteins but it was still a good plate!!!! Service was Friendly and Efficient!! Gender Neutral Restrooms !!! This is a Baller On a Budget Approved Establishment!!!

    BBQ Chicken Mini Meal. $12.22 for 1.5 piece of chicken and 2 scoops of mac. Overpriced IMO, but you be the judge.

    Ribs were fall off the bone and not dry but I didn't like the bbq sauce. Good bbq to me is not only…read moreperfectly cooked meat but a really good sauce. 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.

    We were in the area for traveling and hadn't ate all day. I say this because almost anything tastes…read moregood when you're that hungry. We drove near a small hut with a sign that read BBQ with a small line of people so we figured it must be good. We turned back and found no more customers, but we asked the caller what was popular, she recommended tri tip and brisket. We ordered combination plates with macaroni and cheese as the side. We asked if the plates came with bread. We asked if the Mac and cheese was homemade. DISAPPOINTED. Both meats were heavily salted, and the brisket had tons of fat. The macaroni and cheese was bright orange with tons of garlic and it tastes like I was biting into a brick of sharp cheddar cheese. The bread was a cold King's Hawaiian roll. We also ordered a hot link on the side that was dried up and hard as a rock. The bbq sauce that came with the plates tastes like bottle sauce. Sadly, we did not attempt to eat the food and threw away $45 worth of food. We don't live in the area so we were not sure and expected more from this little spot. I really wish it had exceeded expectations.

    Great news for northern California, one of best BBQ joints if not thee best bbq joint…read more I first found this place on mother's day, googled best BBQ in northern California and Smoke and Meats appeared. We got the food to go, and let me tell you, I kept coming back, The ribs are perfect the flavor is amazing the brisket was so tender it almost melts in your mouth, 3 kinds of sausages cheese, hot and regular amazing the smoke flavor is prominent in everything you taste. There is aways a line, but the line goes quickly, The ambiance is A BBQ RESTAURANT! calm down the decore is western, the sodas come in a can, this is a BBQ joint, the focus is the food. The neighborhood is very cool, the night we went thay had a farmers market with music going on, busy but parking was safe and near. When you do come, say hello to Jeremy the owner, and give him a congratulations for being voted top 10 BBQ in northern California, he was very happy when i told him, we celebrated together as the room cheered and celebrated with us, hears to you Smoke and Meats Keep the meat hot and a table ready, i will be coming back often

    Hubby was so excited when staff asked if he wanted the fatty or lean cut of the brisket…read more.. apparently to him that means they know what they're doing... nonetheless it was DELICIOUS. Perfect smoke, rendered just right. I wasn't a huge fan of the sweet sauce, definitely have a preference for the more vinegar based stuff. The cole slaw was delicious, super crispy and not too sweet thank goodness. We loved it. The mac and cheese was definitely cheddar cheesy, it was super rich so we didn't finish it but it was good. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was made in house and amazing, we loved the bite of the casing. We also ordered a banana cream pie cup and the vanilla wafers were really soggy, but the pudding consistency was great. Staff were super friendly, food was great, and it was packed inside, definitely can see why this is a local favorite with such high reviews.

    I will say that I've always been a fan of mobile food trucks as the majority of ones I've been to…read moreover the years have been tacos. However, I had the opportunity trying out one of the more well-known butcher shops to serve San Joaquin County. This is none other than "Fagundes Meats & Catering" which has been a staple in Manteca for decades. Their actual brick-and-mortar location is off of N. Main St/E. Louise Ave in the heart of Manteca while their food truck ventures out to various locations for a variety of community events. In this case, I saw them serving hungry patrons at the Manteca Watermelon Street Fair that took place during the weekend of 6/6/26-6/7/26. To those that know this business already is that they are famous for their tri-tip. In addition to that, they also have other amazing protein options including rib-eye, brisket, pulled pork, Italian sausage, linguica, chicken, and the order I went with, their pork belly. I ended up going with their "Pork Belly Kabobs" and went for the combo deal which included a side (I went with their macaroni salad) and a drink (I opted for a Diet Pepsi). Total price for everything was $17 (which included tax + tip); not bad especially at a public outdoor event. I will say that the pork belly was quite delicious; a little bit on the salty side but nonetheless still a fairly decent portion in each and every bite. I paired it up with their homemade BBQ sauce which had a sweet yet tangy flavor. The macaroni salad was just average for me as it had too much of a vinegar taste while lacking a whole lot of flavor. Overall, I enjoyed this meal as it held me through the majority of the afternoon. I am definitely curious to try their other meats if I end up visiting their actual butcher shop. Overall, the service was excellent considering I was at a busy outdoor event. The line moved quickly while the prices were quite reasonable, even these days where meat prices have become quite outrageous. With that said and done, I am giving the mobile food truck portion of "Fagundes Meats & Catering" an above average four stars. Hopefully I can make a future visit to their butcher shop in the coming months so stay tuned!

    The tritip sandwich comes nicely loaded with meat and is a decent bite. I'd be curious to try a…read moretritip order on its own to see if it stands out more. Mac and cheese wasn't at all my cup of tea- too bland for my liking. I've also never had potato salad with black olives in it... That is a "no thank you" for me as well. I'll be back around to try more menu items but for now, I'd say around a 3.5.

Everyone here was very attentive and friendly! *RESERVATIONS ARE NECESSARY! No walk ups allowed. The 2 dishes that were outstanding to me were: 1. CHEESY SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP. Served in a cast-iron skillet, topped with melted cheese and pico de gallo. Such a delicious starter! I loved the dip with tortilla chips. If you run out of chips or pico de gallo, you can request more at no extra charge. 2. GRILLED ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD. Crisp romaine, cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, scallions, green beans, crunchy wonton strips, and sweet ginger sesame dressing. A fresh vibrant medley of different textures and flavor! This is easily enough for two people to share. They are generous with the portions. One of the best salads I've ever had! Both dishes were so good, my sister and I went there a second time (the next night) during our trip and ordered the same thing!

    The nicest restaurant at the Great Wolf Lodge. Service was friendly. The food was pretty good…read more The wine list was OK. I'd rate the restaurant as barely above average. For example, I ordered the New York strip. It was cooked perfectly, but the quality of the beef was not great. My wife had the same comment about the Steak Frites, although she said her grilled shrimp were delicious. My kids loved it, which counts for a lot after a long day at the water park. My older son enjoyed his grilled Salmon, but I tasted a bite and would again rate it similarly to the beef. Prepared well, but I've had better fish before. The cornbread was super sweet. Way too sugary, could barely taste the corn. Our waitress was friendly and nice. She didn't know the difference between real and creamy horseradish. I had to remind her about the wine I ordered which was sitting in the bar window for a while. Try to get a table inside unless you want to eat withing earshot of a kids dance party in the evening.
