    Mold and looks like it's not cleaned in so long. Gross

    Mold in soda machine. Weird old smell when I walked in. Never coming back. Overpriced food. Doesn't even come with a drink. Terrible

    Lava Shrimp
    Scott B.

    I went to try the new Lava Shrimp Plate, and it was good flavor rice was kind of sticky and dry and the mac was good no type of flavor but good . I called in because I couldn't figure out how to use the coupon on the app. It kept showing up as a plate instead of just the Lava Seafood Plate, so I had to pick the correct one. When I asked for help over the phone, the girl was really sweet but didn't speak up and tell me how the offer worked. Hopefully, the managers are training the front desk staff on how the coupons and discounts work, since she didn't explain anything to me. I ended up paying full price because the plate I asked for wasn't the right one, and even though I mentioned the Lava Shrimp Plate, she didn't correct me to let me know it should come with vegetables instead of mac and rice. I spoke to the manager, but he just acknowledged it was the wrong order but didnt offer to remake and give me my discount idk prob didnt want to waste food i understand

    Combination BBQ Meat BBQ Chicken, BBQ Beef and Galbi Short Ribs with Macaroni Salad and a couple scoops of rice
    Dwayne O.

    Ono Hawaiian BBQ Galbi, BBQ Chicken and BBQ Beef, Katsu with Curry and Macaroni Salad are all solid. Just as good as the rice plates at the beach on Oahu from the food trucks. The SPAM Musubi is not bad and a nice compliment to your meal. I have spent many days in Oahu at Sandy Beach, Bellows and Hanauma Bay and after being in the water all day, we always would get our rice plates with 2 scoops of rice, 2 scoops of macaroni salad and a couple slabs of galbi short ribs, Ono is as good and is a good reminder of the old days.

    Where is the chicken?! This is all panko breadcrumbs, eggs and oil!

    Will never be back. Ordered a chicken katsu meal to go and pretty disappointed with the chicken. The meal would have been perfect if the chicken wasn't pounded to an 1/8th of an inch. I will say that the macaroni salad was very good. Goes to show that management cares more about the profit margin vs selling a quality product.

    Rice, katsu, and salad.
    Larissa L.

    The katsu and macaroni salad are delicious. I spoiled myself with spam musubi and it was worth it. The salad had a lot of flavor. The prices and portions are great and there are no complaints about the service. I found a new place to go now in Phoenix.

    Chicken Teriyaki Chicken Mini Meal

    As always, Ono is my favorite Hawaiian BBQ place in the valley. Their macaroni salad is the best and my favorite is their chicken teriyaki and then Chicken Katsu next. Service was good your typical service and not expecting as much.

    Ch8cken katsu.  They don't add sauces for any plates.

    Dont ever order Uber eats, the chicken katsu. They charged $14.59 and 8t looks like one thigh chopped up to appear more.

Pretty much every type of meat that they had was a hit. Some of the meat was a bit salty, but it wasn't salty enough to affect my culinary experience. Overall I thought it was very delicious. Naturally, the sliced brisket was very juicy and tasty, and the chopped brisket provided good textural consistency along with the flavor. I also thought that the turkey breast was a good item to neutralize the strong taste that came from some of the meat, such as the pork belly burnt ends, which were both sweet and salty. The sausage pieces were also great in providing a layer of flavor distinct from the other kinds of meat. The pork spare ribs were generous in size, although I thought the sauce could be a bit less sweet. Overall, very solid barbeque meat and I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone that visits the Phoenix area.

Comfortable, sorta on the dark side. Classy. As I was not driving today, I decided to try their smoked Old Fashioned. Excellent -- and the dark cherries they use are the perfect addition to the cocktail. (The glass is coated with smoke from a smoldering piece of pecan wood, and the cocktail was served with a cloud of smoke under a coaster covering the glass.) The pig sickles ( ribs) were the perfect chance to make a pig of myself. Had the two meat plate, pig sickles and barbecued pulled chicken, If you like corn, you must have the side of corn with your dinner. The barbecue beans were delicious. Our server did a magnificent job tending to our drinks, appetizer, and food orders -- despite being very busy (the place was packed! -- and seemed like she was in constant motion. Very nice individual who liked la Prices? It was expensive, but the best barbecue always is. Eating isn't cheap. It was well worth every dollar spent. All in all, it was a perfect dinner. The perfect parting gift: a small paper bag containing four small donuts, coated with cinnamon. Our bag didn't make it home... I think we've found the perfect place to bring our family and out-of-town guests for dinner.

Bobby-Q has become our go-to restaurant for bringing out-of-town visitors and family to dinner for a memorable night. In this case, we planned for 2 family members to visit us -- and three showed up. We had some excellent appetizers -- the nachos are worthy of being served at any restaurant. At the table, we had a variety of orders, including French Dip (3 of us had this); I had the two-meat barbecue (beef rib and chicken); my side dishes (corn, and beans) were very good. I have no idea what our fifth family member had, but they didn't say much until they had nothing to look at other than a clean plate. Our servers were superlative... attentive, genuinely nice people, good manners, and amicable. They got a nice tip. Outstanding evening, enjoyed by all of us.
