Ono Thai — Restaurant in Oʻahu

Hello!! The food was delicious! Yum Nom, Nom😋. Respectful people and service. ALWAYS made us felt welcome when we came. I've ate inside this establishment 3x. I have pictures, but usually I'm so excited when I receive my food I forget to take pictures and just eat. I usually get the cold coffee. It has a sweet, crisp, bold flavor. Don't be shy to ask for more creamer if that's what you desire. BTW, you will receive a menu so you can order whatever you want to. The restaurant starts the guests off with iced water. I can't remember the name of the dish that I ate last time. It was like a fried rice with vegetables. You can get it with pork, beef, or shrimp. I added pork. It was good! You get a lot. I shared half of my meal with my buddy. She had the pad Thai? She added chicken to it. That's a noodle based entree. That was very goooooood! She shared some of her food with me! It has Soy in it. So for all of you who have an allergy to Soy, do not get this. My friend refuses to listen and takes Benadryl before we go because she loves this dish! Crazy Right? I ordered Lumpias for an appetizer. It has fresh ingredients and hot. It's not served with a sweet sauce. It's a clear sauce and the next the time I go I will ask them the name of it. It's doesn't taste bad. It allows you to enjoy the flavors of the meat, seasonings, and dough. I ordered a dessert here one time. I get so full, I can't eat anything else. The fried ice cream is okay. I hope this helped someone 😁 I apologized for it being...

This may be the best Thai we've ever had. We got the Ono Appetizer Combo (fish patties, spring rolls, chicken satay), Tom Kha soup, and Pad Ki Maow (drunken noodles).

The satay, even before the delicious peanut sauce, was the best I've ever had. Very well-seasoned, and a nice bit of crispiness at the edges without being overcooked. The sauces and additional vegetables (lettuce leaves, cucumber, Thai basil, shredded cabbage) in the appetizer combo added delightful mixtures of texture and flavor.

The Tom Kha soup (we got it with tofu) was full of veggies. Green beans, mushrooms, carrots, zucchini. It was a hearty and typically tasty soup.

The drunken noodles (we also got them with tofu) were great. They were a bit spicy (as we were warned beforehand) for a typical American palate, but very tasty. The veggies, tofu, eggs, and noodles were all cooked quickly at high heat, which meant there was lots of yummy textures and colors in the dish. Broccoli, green beans, Thai basil, and carrots were perfectly cooked - brightly colorful and yielding, but still snappy. The tofu and noodles were crispy at some of the edges and softer in the center, which led to each mouthful remaining interesting in flavor as well as texture.

I found myself saying "mmm" a lot during this meal. I'm so glad...

Best Thai on the Island—Consistently Perfect! Ono Thai is hands-down the best Thai food on the island. Lots of vegetarian options. And if you like (or love!) fried chicken, their fried chicken appetizer is incredible—crispy perfection in every bite. Their crispy fried chicken is golden, crunchy, and packed with flavor—absolutely a must-try. My personal favorite is the basil stir-fry. It’s fresh, perfectly balanced, and you can customize it with tofu, vegetables, chicken, pork, beef, or seafood. Every version is delicious, and the flavors are always on point.The pad Thai, green curry, and red curry are consistently perfect—rich, satisfying, and full of authentic flavor. The sticky rice is just right, and the seafood is always fresh and expertly prepared. The food always comes out piping hot delicious and at lightening speed. Ono Thai never misses on flavor. If you know, you know—this place is...
