Ono Hawaiian BBQ is bringing its Hawaiian-inspired plate lunches and island specialties to Sylmar, CA, with the opening of its newest location. According to What Now Los Angeles, the festivities will kick off this Friday, December 29, from 11 AM to 9:30 PM in the Sylmar Towne Shopping Center.

The grand opening promises to quickly become packed with activities, featuring a ribbon cutting ceremony to officially mark the restaurant's entrance into the Sylmar community. Revelers will have the chance to witness traditional Hawaiian dancers and partake in giveaways. "Raffles for a chance to win 1 of 50 $100 Ono Hawaiian BBQ gift cards between 11am – 1pm" will be one of the key highlights, What Now Los Angeles reports. Additionally, an exclusive "Buy One, Get One Free" promotion would be running all day to entice the community to sample the flavors of Hawaii.

Located at 12631 Glenoaks Blvd., Suite 2, Sylmar, CA 91342, this family-owned operation has been bringing authentic Hawaiian cuisine to the mainland since its inception in 2002. As noted in the Restaurant News Release, Ono Hawaiian BBQ is recognized for "using the freshest ingredients, prepared from scratch daily in each restaurant and grilled fresh to order."

The brand is no stranger to expansion; with locations across California and Arizona, it's clear that Ono Hawaiian BBQ is on a mission to broadly share its unique dining experience. The new Sylmar outpost represents a continuation of the company's efforts to infuse the "Aloha" spirit into its service and atmosphere. Esteemed for their array of Plate Lunches that follow a classic Hawaiian template—two scoops of rice, a creamy macaroni salad and a hot entrée—customers can expect to be transported straight to a tropical paradise with every bite at the new location.
