    Great food and a wide selection of items to choose from. Try the clams with white wine sauce along with the garlic bread! Really great! Fast service and a friendly staff. It’s a great casual dining date spot for sure.

    A friend took me there earlier tonight for my birthday. We got there during happy hour and were pleasantly surprised by the prices and number of items on the happy hour menu. It ends at 5:30 and lots of places end it at 5 so we started out with a good impression. She got the Kailua pig quesadillas and I got fish and chips. She ordered the green beans as well. Everything was delicious! Our waiter was friendly and was very familiar with the food and drinks on the menu. My cocktail was called something crush. Yummy! Overall a really great experience.

    Onkee Korean BBQ was exceptional! Excellent service from the moment you walk in. We got the premium combo for 2 people and the Snake River meat was so delicious. Love the banchan and refills they bring to complement the meal. I’ve experienced very good Korean BBQ in the past, but Onkee was the best! We will be making this a regular treat every time we come to Oahu.

    Definitely get the truffle ponzu and the chopped wasabi. If going with a group order the uni tray and add your own uni to every bite.
