My friends recommended me this place This isn't in the Waikiki beach area so you'll definitely need a car.
My friends recommended me this place. This isn't in the Waikiki beach area so you'll definitely need a car. Ono Kimchi is located in a small strip. Parking is very limited, but there is also street parking around the corner. As I'm looking at the menu there are tons of choices. The owner is a Korean lady and she is a sweetheart! She sold us on her Hawaiian Poke Special. There's are fresh and made to owner so expect about 10-15 minutes. She prepares everything in front of you, and as I watched I was getting more hungry haha. She is super friendly and asked us a lot about where we are from and what we do. As she finishes and it hands it to us she has a huge smile on her face and tells us to please come again. We thank her and take our food to eat outside. Ooh my god! This is amazing! Plenty of tuna poke in here! Its loaded with flavors and plenty of vegetables to add flavor and texture. We asked for spicy and it has a good kick. I enjoy spicy food and this was a good spice that kept its flavor! We came back inside to thank her and it was the best poke I've had. I'm not a poke expert, but this place is a gem! We are definitely coming back before we leave Oahu!
This restaurant might not stand out when you search for poke, but it's located right next to the one that does. Trust me, Ono Kimchee is the place you want to go for poke! The woman who runs the shop is incredibly kind, and she prepares everything fresh to order. The taste is absolutely out of this world! We’ll definitely be coming back for more. We also tried her kimchee, which was outstanding, and the pickled ginger, which was amazing. If you're looking for top-quality, authentic Hawaiian flavors, this is a must-visit!
