Review of Ono Pokii

*Note* only the Gluten items are marked on the menu - if there is no marking next to a menu item it is GF. The server at the entrance walked me through the menu for my takeout order. He was very nice and patient. He explained that they had procedures to avoid cross contamination. I ordered a “build your own “ with the coconut rice, fresh salmon, grilled octopus, hearts of palm, marinated bamboo, beets, fried onions and seaweed. I am intolerant to soy so the only sauce I could have was the spicy Mayo. He double checked that all my choices were gf. I was surprised that the fried onions were okay but it is just onions and oil. Overall it was delicious. Everything I chose tasted good together. The only things I didn’t like were the grilled octopus - way too chewy, and the marinated bamboo which was hard to eat because it was so fibrous. The salmon was amazingly fresh. It was actually too much food for one sitting. I will definitely return.
