    Do you love a good plate lunch ? Are you excited for the Stitch movie ? Have kids ? Visit Ono Hawaiian barbecue because right now they have a Keiki lunch meal that includes an entrée applesauce & a drink. I was excited to stop by for the keiki meal. The service was fast and friendly. The restaurant has a Hawaiian vibe that we love. Definitely stop by and have yourself a plate lunch.

    Long hair found in our food on 01/16/26 7pm ish. Everyone in my family has black and dark brown hair.

    Food tasted good, but I found a long blonde/white hair in my daughter's kids meal. Also, I ordered a canned drink and a guava pie and was never instructed or told that I needed to grab it on my own so I left without them and had to return to get them later.

    Bruh.  Just do it!  But find the right time and day, I was lucky enough to arrive before the rush and the cooks were Ready!

    I needed to take my thirty before continue on for this temp job. It was going to be a trek down south, so, mandated 30 minutes. Might as well eat well. And I just randomly stumbled upon a gem! Hearty Hawaiian food is the way to go when you want to be satisfied for the price. I love Hawaiian food, so, I will be hard to displease. So, even before I tried the food, I already give this place 5 stars because it's clean, I was greeted when I came in and going to use the bathroom now. If there is any way to see how well the food may be, you can tell by smiling employees! Oh and the bathroom, hardest place to keep clean. You know? Thank you for the exemplary service. (After ravenously inhaling the food) The sweet and perfectly seasoned pulled pork gently brought to temperature roomed inside the edible leaf that never takes alway from the meat. Kiluau pork (sorry, my spelling keeps getting corrected incorrectly, just going to be empathetic and move on). Bruh, the rice was sweet and steaming hot soaking the juices increasing the texture and chew to eye closing perfection! If there was Hawaiian macaroni salad that rivals L&L Hawaiian BBQ this place takes as much pride in sticking to what's great. I am assuming the two masubi would of been amazing, one being Hawaiian BBQ chicken and the other being the stapled Spam masubi. But co-workers thought they would help themselves. Eh, it's my fault for thinking I could leave it unattended. I am pretty sure they are a fan now, so, that's a positive! Not to mention where this place is situated, tuck in between where the populace enjoys main stream places and foods, this place was not busy at all nor was there any trouble getting in and out and back on the road within 25 minutes. Makes a difference when you're new and being observed for being professional and independently reliable. Thanks Ono! It was ono ono and all le kind! Aloha!!

    The girls works there were super helpful and friendly! Nice food and the price is reasonable too. Highly recommended!

    I usually request to replace rice with extra steamed vegetables. The portion sizes here are quite generous and worth the price. I enjoy their grilled chicken and grilled beef. I also like their katsu sauce.

    AMAZING Food was sooo good and the service was great so friendly! The ambiance of this place really fits with the name and vibe! 5 STARS

    This was our first time here. I've been craving some Hawaiian food. It's been about a year since we…read morelast had some out in Hawaii, and it's hard to find good. Authentic spots came across this location on yelp and hands down everything. We ate was absolutely delicious from starting to finish. The chicken was super tender and juicy. Great flavor de Kalúa pork, reminding me of a location. We ate out in Waikiki. The short ribs were BOMB! Every single thing was cooked to perfection!! The spicy Poke nachos were delicious made with freshly made wontons And to finish our meal we enjoyed a delicious slice of their homemade coconut cake. Definitely coming back they got two new customers for life !! Location is clean. Workers are super nice definitely a place for you to come out and check out if you're in the mood for some authentic Hawaiian food.

Well let me say the gravy was DELICIOUS! My egg was overcooked though. No biggie, I will just make it clear next time that I want a runny egg but I thought that was standard and any other way has to be stated. The rice was also good. Definitely nothing to complain about. The one thing that I think need to be addressed is the patty. It was very thin... Still not a deal breaker but it the texture was dry and not hamburger like if that makes since at all. It's only because the patty might be a hard item for them to change that I was left let down.

The rice was cooked perfect, spam and eggs and well, but the gravy was the star of the show. So tasty and went perfect with everything. The Island Chilaquiles were super yummy as well.

The parking here is a little tough, there's plenty of parking but they're also next to a starbucks drive through so watch out for that if you park in that 1 way lane. It's a bit disorganized inside for pick up. I was told to wait around the corner, but there's no space as people are exiting from paying at the register. It got a little confusing and cramped. Ordered chilaquilies - 3/5 would not recommend ordering for pick up as the chips get soggy fast. Other than that it was okay, plenty of pork. Corned beef hash 3/5 - solid nothing crazy Oreo pancake 3/5 tasted like you'd expect. It's a decent brunch spot, but gets super packed with tough parking. I'd go back at an off time, but it's nothing crazy.

    There's like 3 businesses in Rodeo X and clearly this is the crowd favorite (unless people don't…read morewant beer super early on a Sunday brunch/lunch). Plenty of parking in the plaza since it's huge, but it can get quite busy (mostly looks like people for Starbucks and the grocery store though). Rodeo X was mostly empty when I went, hopefully it picks up because man that was sad to see. Maybe food halls weren't the answer to the economy (looking at you Haven City and Blossom Market Hall amongst others). Anyways, there were 2 families there and another person ordering to go and they all had food from Shootz. Really says a lot about how it's a crowd favorite. There was no line when I ordered and they called my name to pick up my order fairly quickly. I believe they have an app, or the very least you can order ahead of time for pick up. For my lunch, I got the: 1) Mint Peach Limeade: -No ice or sweetness adjustments, I got it as is and it's from an ever flowing machine at the front next to the register. Similar to those machines that cycle through lemonade at Hot Dog on a Stick. Got this immediately. -Not bad. Like slightly milky sweet peach drink with a subtle mint after taste. Pretty unique, the reason why I immediately resonated with wanting to order it. 2) Kimchi Butter Katsu Chicken: -I got this spicy. -Comes with 2 decently sized cut slabs of chicken katsu. Super juicy, deliciously crisp exterior. Covered in their signature kimchi butter all over the chicken and their rice. It was to the point where I JUST picked it up and some was already coagulating on the edge of the to go box. -Mega indicator of how rich and indulgent, and likely not healthy for you but delicious as a fried food treat once in awhile. -Generous portions of crisp green onions and furikake on top. -Each bite was rich and delicious. Usually rice is just a carb to help with the savory and salty intake of a protein, but it was also made really addicting with the kimchi butter. There's a slight kick from the spice, but nothing substantial. Some of that spicy powder was also on top of the mac salad (also rich and delicious). -Easily lots of butter, mayo, etc. used so of course it's going to be mega good. I had to stop myself from inhaling the dish so I can take some back for my family to try too. Good stuff, I'd definitely come back, probably with others, hopefully at a closer location to try more of their menu (it's limited but they're super good at what they do) and eat more of their deliciously decadent and filling food.

    The good: The best katsu chicken I've ever had!! (They also have shrimp but I haven't tried it)…read more The sauce is great and the rice is perfect. Large portions. The cashiers and workers are nice, work hard, and the food comes out fast. It seems like most of their business is online ordering for pick up. Everything behind the counter and in the kitchen was spotless. The not-so good: The restaurant is located inside a food court and there are no signs outside the building that name the restaurants that are inside. We had to turn on Maps to find the location. I'm not sure if the tables inside are cleaned by the individual restaurants or are cleaned by a food court employee... but we had to check for sticky tables when trying to find a seat. The Mac salad has tuna in it. It's not to my liking but my husband really enjoyed it. I highly recommend splitting a combo plate(s) with your favorite person and try to avoid leftovers. The reheated katsu and rice just isn't the same as when it's fresh.... So even with having to check the tables - I do recommend eating at the food court for the freshest and tastiest experience

    We bought so much food here that we literally had a feast and had to take a lot home…read more First of all, I'm vegetarian, so when I find a restaurant with vegetarian options, I want to try as much of it as I can. I ended up ordering spicy edamame, vegetable egg rolls, veggie rolls, tempura veggie rolls, and vegetable yakisoba. My sister, who's a meat eater, ordered calamari, California rolls, beef fried rice, beef yakisoba, and a new Korean bbq dish that wasn't on the regular menu, but there was a picture of it on the wall by our table. In addition, we each also got a bowl of miso soup and a small salad that came free of charge with our meal, which I appreciate since sushi rolls by themselves don't really fill me up. Everything tasted good and was filling and even now after eating some of the leftovers, it all still tastes good. The place itself is nicely decorated with a bunch of police patches behind the counter while on the walls there's Japanese artwork. The only hiccups I had was when I first came in I immediately asked for 2 waters. I got a nonverbal "Mm-hmm," so I repeated it again and got the same response, but a little more annoyed. Maybe it's a cultural thing where I was expecting an actual "Yes" and in Japan it's just a noise of acknowledgement, but once I started ordering so much food the waitress was much nicer to us. The 2nd was when we had to wait for the last dish to come out when we were already packed and ready to leave, but that was more on us since we added the Korean bbq last minute. The last has nothing to do with the restaurant itself, but the plaza it's in. If you're unfamiliar with it, I'll tell you right now that the parking situation is a nightmare! Basically, the parking lot is a long narrow stretch sandwiched in-between with the various restaurants and shops on one side, and the main street on the other side, so what ends up happening is all the good spots right next to the place you want to go to get filled up fast and you have to try and make a U-turn and find parking far away. Meanwhile, a bunch of other cars are trying to do the same thing while other cars are trying to come in off the street. It's horrible! It's an accident waiting to happen! I hate this plaza and whoever designed it! Anyway, if you're willing to put up with the parking situation, the restaurant and food are good enough for you to forget about it until you're trying to leave.
