Absolutely delicious! The portion and quality of food is so worth the price! $12 for this whole bowl with macaroni salad and I was full even after splitting this with my boyfriend! Chicken is nicely grilled (no crazy seasoning with just right amount of grilling). Rice is also really sticky and soft and just right melts into your tongue!!! Service is a little slow because they only have one person working. But, the server was very friendly and utensils are provided at the counter. It's located in the middle of United noodles so vibes are always good! This reminds me of h-mart on the east coast, but more chill and community-oriented.
The food was fantastic and the staff were very friendly. My wife ordered the Garlic Shrimp with the Kalbi Short Ribs, and I ordered the Hawaiian BBQ and Garlic Shrimp. Everything was very flavorful and tasted fresh. The only thing I didn't like was that a lot of the tables needed to be wiped down, and there weren't even many people in the restaurant at the time. But once I mentioned it, she came right out and cleaned the tables off, so I appreciated that. Overall it was a great experience and we'll definitely be back.
This is a bit of an odd location, being inside of United Noodles, but the low key and casual vibes are perfect for a mid shopping trip lunch or just a quick stop while you are in the neighborhood. Simple counter service where they will bring food out to your table, this is an easy spot to go with kids or family. I got the chicken Katsu and Short ribs combo plate. It was a little pricey at nearly 25 bucks, but I will say it was enormous amount of food and ended up not finishing it. Could absolutely share with someone else and be very happy. The chicken katsu was nice and crisp on the outside without being overcooked, and the honey mustard/katsu sauces paired perfectly with the salty breading. The short ribs were the star of the show, sweet and tangy, absolutely the type of meat you crave until you go back. I am very much looking forward to returning next time I need to go to United Noodle for groceries, and maybe even before that.
I've been wanting to try Loco Moco so my husband brought me to Ono, we both got the original Loco Moco and shared the hurricane fries, we probably could have shared the Loco Moco because we both ended up super full before finishing the fries. It was good, I wish maybe there was a little more gravy but the flavors were all good, textures etc were all great. It's order & they give you a number type deal, grab your own cutlery & napkins. So low key casual and it's inside of an Asian grocery store just fyi, so grab some ramen and other Asian fare while you're there! (And coastal seafoods is around the corner too!)
I had the privilege to try Hawaiian bbq for the first time in California. After that memorable and delicious experience, I HAD to see if Minnesota had any similar joints, especially as someone who loves Japanese cuisine e.g. chicken katsu. To my luck, I was happy to see one back in MN. Obviously I had to go and compare. Rice and macaroni were good and expected. Katsu sauce was a bit too tangy and sweet, although preference varies from others. However, I obviously had to focus on the main star: the Katsu. Compared and contrasted to the Hawaiian bbq based in California aforementioned: chicken was good and not too dry at all. The breading/panko could've used more gritty texture, more bite to it. Some of the breading didn't adhere properly to the chicken as well. Otherwise, not too bad at all. Ambiance is okay, did not expect it inside a grocery store. I wonder if this business expanded and has their own building in the Twin Cities to promote traffic.
First time having Hawaiian plates. We order 2 plates to share among 3 of us. Plenty of food for us to enjoy and still had leftovers. We had the beef ribs, chicken, and shrimp. We also ordered the noodles and eggs on the side. My favorite was the bbq chicken! The beef ribs were a little tough and what wasn't tough was fatty. The shrimp was ok. The macaroni salad was good. The noodles were amazing. I think when I return, I'll order the chicken plate and get noodles on the side. Definitely worth a try! The place is cute and the staff are friendly!
The service is amazing the food is full of flavor but word of advice eat the macaroni salad with the rice. Before I forget the restaurant is located in an asian or Korean grocery store sorry if I am incorrect about the ethnicity.
Fun BBQ flavors in the United Noodle grocery store. The portions are quite large. The BBQ was my fav and my bf loved the mac salad. The chicken katsu was crispy and tastes good with the sauce which they don't give you too much of. The rice is well seasoned and not dry. I love their spam masubi which is harder to find now.
Oh man this place was good. Nestled right inside United Noodle. The food coming out of this place was delicious. I got the Katsu & BBQ chicken combo plate with rice and Mac salad. It was all great. I did a combo of dipping sauces to try- my favorite was the katsu sauce and guava BBQ. Laid back atmosphere, limited seating but had open spots for lunch during the week. Will definitely be back to try other things.
Having been to United noodles I finally got myself to try this restaurant inside. There was plenty of seating with cafeteria style tables and it didn't feel cramped at all since it's an open ceiling. You order and pay at the front which I appreciate and your order is brought out to your table. They have sparking water on their fountain machine which I enjoyed since I only got a cup for water but they do carry a variety of pop and Hawaiian style drinks. The food was a generous portion for the price ($15.50) and can definitely have enough for two meals. Food was decent and met expectations. After you eat you can shop around in the grocery store for lots of other goodies to take home.
Disclaimer: Ordered as delivery. Food was still warm. The Bbq chicken was tender and had good grill flavor. Teriyaki sauce was good. This is the reason I gave it 4stars. I was really looking forward to the katsu but I've had better...the breading was crispy, but I prefer breast meat when it comes to katsu. Sauce was ok, I did like the spice in the katsu, it wasn't just tangy. I'm not a big mayo fan so I couldn't finish the Mac salad even after I added my favorite hot sauce. Musabi was good, I like my nori crispy but maybe because it was delivery the nori sat in heat and moisture. Will be back to try other dishes.
I always love coming here, tucked away inside United Noodle, Ono Hawaiian Plates is a fantastic spot for a quick lunch or dinner. The food is served plate style with plenty of protein options, my go to is the Chicken Katsu and BBQ Chicken combo, but if you want to splurge the short rib is also excellent. It is amazing to have authentic Hawaiian flavors right here in Minnesota, and it is definitely worth checking out. The service is decent, and while the seating can feel cramped during peak lunch hours, that is only because the place gets busy. Overall, it is one of my favorite hidden gems in Minneapolis.

I haven't dined in at Ono Hawaiian Plates so I can't speak for the service or ambiance, but I can speak for the food. I ordered the Hawaiian BBQ Chicken and Kalua Pork plate. It came with a side of Guava BBQ sauce and a side of the Island Teriyaki sauce. I ordered an extra side of Teriyaki and a side of the Soy Honey Mustard. Even after traveling for a delivery from Minneapolis to St. Paul, the plate was still hot and packaged well. The chicken is to die for, and the pork is very good too. I preferred both proteins with the Guava BBQ sauce, so I'd probably order extra of that one next time. The teriyaki was great as well. The soy honey mustard was also good, but had strong hints of horseradish in it. I like horseradish, but I don't think this sauce is for everyone. The Mac salad was delicious. Tasted homemade in a good way. 5/5 would get this again! read more
Where is the option to give this place 6 stars!? Holy moly! My boyfriend used to live in Hawaii and I have been to Hawaii. We are both here to tell you, this place is legit! This location is inside united noodle (an Asian grocery store). There is plenty of free parking. The service here was fast and friendly. This place actually has Pepsi zero! I feel like you normally get regular and diet! Being inside this grocery store is its own vibe. There are picnic tables, chill music and a large picture of Oahu. Some of the picnic tables are breaking and wood tables would probably hold up better! The food: if you don't get the Kahlúa pork, you are doing yourself a disservice. It comes with a guava barbecue sauce, which I put on my rice. The meat is perfect on its own! I also got the garlic shrimp, which was absolutely perfection! I don't like macaroni salad, but my boyfriend said his was very good and spot on to what he had in Hawaii. My boyfriend said his chicken was very good. If you haven't tried this place, you are absolutely missing out!! read more

Ohhhhh no, Ono! What a place! Can't get enough! FOOD: highly recommend any item from their relatively small menu. I love their curry and chicken katsu. It's flavorful, filling, and just good food. It makes you feel good after and that's one thing I love. SERVICE: this is a counter order establishment. The staff are always very friendly. PARKING: easy in the United Noodle parking lot AMBIANCE: surprisingly nice for mid grocery store. Wouldn't come here expecting much of a dining experience but if you just can't wait to eat, it's not bad either! read more

10/10 for the chicken katsu plate. $9 for a big plate of crispy chicken with the perfect amount of macaroni on the side. 7/10 for the poke bowl. The quality of the tuna isn't the best and there are a lot of sauces that overpowered the fish in my opinion. They are located inside the grocery store, and they play good kpop music! Service was good, very straight forward, and they bring the food to your table. Plenty of parking available. read more

Love me some Ono! This is my first time coming to the location inside United Noodle; typically I go to their North Loop location inside the Galley. Their BBQ chicken ($12) is perfectly marinated, and super flavorful without being overly salty! They give you a side of teriyaki sauce to dip in but I honestly don't even think it really needs it. The plate comes standard with 2 scoops of white rice and 1 scoop of Hawaiian macaroni salad, but I find it worth it to add the $2 upcharge to do 2 mac, 1 rice. The garlic noodles were also quite good--a perfect blend of savory and creamy! The portions for the mains are a great value for the price; if we weren't starving, each of these easily could've been two meals. I also got a SPAM musubi, which felt a little on the small side, but was still good. I love that this place is inside United Noodle so you can either choose from their Hawaiian juice beverage options, or choose something from the store's offerings. The staff is very quick, even if there's a bit if a line when you get there, and they've got about half a dozen tables for those choosing to dine on, which I think is super reasonable for the space they have. I'll definitely be back to try some of the other offerings in the future. read more
We were in the area and craving poke. This restaurant is located at United Noodles grocery store. Located in the right side of the store, there's tables and chairs under the large trellis. They have specials listed on the board. Order at the counter and they will give you a number, then bring the food to your table. Garlic shrimp is always a favorite. Poke comes in 2 different flavors, spicy is really spicy. read more

This is one of my favorite spots in MN. The owners are very sweet and welcoming. As for the food I ALWAYS get the same thing which is the chicken katsu + chicken teriyaki combo and it hits every single time. I also love the spam musubi! read more
It was so hard to pick from my favorite "Chicken Katsu" or wings. I went with the wings. They are the best Thai Chili wings I've ever had! The sauce tasted homemade and the crispiness of the wings was spot on yet juicy on the inside. Perfection! You can choose between rice, fries (which looked amazing) or macaroni salad alongside the wings. We also ordered the BBQ chicken/Kalua Pork and it comes with rice and macaroni salad. It was excellent and their Island Teriyaki Sauce paired perfectly with the meats. The sauce was so good we bought a small container to go for $3. This place is located inside United Noodle. So grab some asian groceries after you stuff yourself so you don't buy so much groceries and snacks like we did before eating. read more

Hard to go wrong with grilled meat. The taste was exactly what I was craving for. The kalbi was tender and savory. Katsu never has much flavor for me and I'm not a fan of Katsu sauce. The Katsu was fine for what it is. The teriyaki chicken was nicely grilled, clean flavor and thankful it didn't come slathered in sauce so I could enjoy the smoky flavor and choose how much sauce I want. I didn't realize I needed to grab utensils myself but the owners nicely grabbed some forks for us as they brought the food. You bus the trays yourself when done. Tables are connected together for a communal feel. You get a lot of food so be prepared to take some home. read more

Completely blown away by this place!! There are so few places in the country where you can get authentic Hawaiian food on the mainland. Thank you chefs Warren and Jess for bringing such beautiful food to warm the bellies of Minnesotans. My family is from Hawaii and wow what a treat it is to have food like this. I'm originally from NYC and even there there is no where that compares to this level of Hawaiian yumminess. Also if you are just eating chicken Katsu, I am begging you to try their kalua pig loco moco or even some bbq [meat of choice]! read more
GO HERE! NOW! This food is F A N T A S T I C! The portions are honestly huge and so worth the price which I don't think is expensive at all. My boyfriend and I shared a katsu & shrimp combo. It came with macaroni salad, rice, and some different sauces. The shrimp were huge and perfectly cooked. Some of the best I've honestly ever had. The katsu was crisp and thin and great. I have absolutely zero complaints about this place. The staff is very friendly as well! Plus, afterwards you can grocery shop at United which is a great asian grocery store! I like the picnic tables and the cute little Hawaiian vibe read more

Man running the front was sweet and informative. Our food was both good but could also use a little bit of working on flavors as well (My rice tasted like it had burnt flakes on it) -- The Mac was decently.. I'm more comfortable with a sweeter taste where theirs just tasted like lite mayo only. Over all everything was finely cooked. read more

Literally sooooo goooood.... like SOOO GOOD! This is one of the best Hawaiian spots ever. All the dishes are tasty and the portions are huge. It's so so so yummy. The poke bowl was juicy and delish. The chicken Katsu was huge and crispy. The spam musubi was so flavorful. I literally can't wait to try all the other dishes. The service was super great too. They are super sweet and love talking about the food. :D (This is also located inside United Noodle which is a +1! Get some yummy Hawaiian food and then shop around!) read more
