"Ono, named for Oahu-born owner Steven Ono, is a seafood lover’s dream in Edmonds, offering possibly the highest-quality poke in the Seattle area on a menu that rotates depending on what’s fresh. (Ono sources some of his fish directly from the Honolulu Fish Auction.) Just as importantly, the restaurant uses a light hand with flavorings so you don’t lose the flavor of the fish itself, whether you’re eating salmon dressed with ponzu or a spicy ahi bowl. You will be eating fish here though — there are Hawaiian sides like mac salad and seaweed salad, but this isn’t a place for vegans. Know before you go: This gem is in no way “hidden.” Expect long lines and occasional sellouts." - Harry Cheadle
