Ono is Ono...I would have given 5 stars but \"as good as it gets\" is backyard/beach luau on the Islands. For those of you that don't know Ono has many meanings, it can describe a delicious dish (that teriyaki plate was Ono) or your wanting of something (I am Ono for a beer right now). My first experience of Ono was living on the west side driving back to CA and I saw it off of Dysart road next to my bank. I went in and got just what I wanted for the trip to CA, a couple of spam musubi.\n\nNow living in Phoenix I am glad to know that Ono is a hop and a skip away. I have been there multiple times but am lazy on reviews. If you are looking for a different lunch, or easy dinner, then you are in for a treat. Plate lunch is what we call it, but plate dinner, or leftovers, works as well.\n\nI would recommend to start off with the BBQ Plate Combo, it has a piece of teriyaki chicken, teriyaki beef, and a korean kalbi style short rib. To top it off traditional plate lunch is also served with mac salad, a scoop of rice (sometimes two) and Ono likes to put some steamed cabbage on the bottom of the meat. Get a side of Rooster Sauce (Sriracha) to dip your meat or rice in and you will look up with a smile. My favorite is the Spam Musubi, a piece of spam, rice and sauce, wrapped in seaweed. Different Ono's have different items, but plate lunch is a staple at all.\n\nIf you are a light eater you may want to split any plate lunch combo. If you think you can do it and can't then score, you have dinner or a snack later. Either way you will be happy. I only wish they had brew to wash it down with, but good thing about plate lunch is it is just as good when you get it home as when it was put in the box. Writing this made me Ono for Ono, mmmm.
