I'm on a quest to try all the local island restaurants and heard that Ono was a great place to get Hawaiian. Inside there was ample seating with faux marble top tables and bright yellow painted from the ceiling to mid-wall. The island décor is subtle with the exception of a single surf board mounted on one wall. In fact, it seemed random and out of place given the lackluster island theme. But who really cares about décor if the food is good, right?
Their plates are pictured so if you've never had chicken katsu, you @ least know what it looks like. I ordered the mahi-mahi & BBQ chicken combo served on a bed of cabbage, with rice, a scoop of mac salad for about $7. The fried fish was a little on the dry side and the chicken was a boneless thigh that was moist/juicy but I attribute that to the fact it was dark meat. The mac salad was a little heavy on the mayo but otherwise ok. It was quite a bit of food and I split it into a few meals. The fish was horrible on day 2 and the grease from the chicken was even more pronounced. (Sigh). I did find it interesting that they also had musubi on the menu! If you're not a fan of Hawaiian BBQ, they also have burgers and salads.
The service was good and the food was decent. I'd return if I were in the area but wouldn't make a special trip.
