Ono Thai Cuisine | Our Story

From Nong Khai to Ewa Beach

Ono Thai Cuisine is a family restaurant rooted in the bold, spicy, herbaceous cooking of Thailand's Isan region — and every dish we serve carries more than 50 years of that heritage.
Roots in Nong Khai

Roots in Nong Khai

Our family's roots are in Nong Khai, a city in northeastern Thailand where spicy, herbaceous Isan cooking is simply a way of life. Generations of refinement shaped a style of cooking that is entirely our own.

Recipes Passed Down for Generations

For over 50 years, each generation has stood at the stove learning the same foundations: traditional herbs, hand-selected spices, and the authentic sauces that give Isan cooking its bold, layered character.

We brought that tradition from Nong Khai to Oahu's west side, welcoming every guest like family — walk-ins always welcome, dishes customized to your taste, in a cozy dining room where you're encouraged to linger.
Made to Order, Every Time

Made to Order, Every Time

Our noodles are made fresh daily, our curries built on locally grown herbs and spices — every order prepared with the same care we'd put into a meal for our own family. Come hungry.
