Howzit and Aloha!

Ono Poke is built on a shared passion for great food, strong community, and doing things the right way. Founder Steven Ono, born and raised in Kahaluʻu, Oʻahu, grew up fishing, diving and learning the art of poke from his Uncle Reuben, a commercial fisherman whose influence still lives on in every cut of fish we serve today. After moving to Seattle and craving the authentic flavors of home, Steven brought that tradition here and built Ono Poke as a place to “talk story” and enjoy real Hawaiian style poke. Today, that legacy continues in partnership with Shubert Ho, a local chef/restaurateur of Feedme Hospitality & Restaurant Group, who has spent his career building community driven restaurants across the Greater Seattle area. Together, we honor the roots of Ono Poke while investing in its future, staying true to its origins while creating new opportunities for our team and continuing to serve our community with quality, consistency and aloha.
