Fresh wild-caught Ono fillet, sold by the pound at Costco's seafood counter. Ono is the Hawaiian word for "good to eat," and this prized game fish is the common name for Wahoo (Acanthocybium solandri), a fast-swimming species related to the mackerel family. Known for its mild, sweet flavor and a slightly stronger profile reminiscent of swordfish, Ono is a favorite among seafood lovers seeking something beyond everyday whitefish.

Ono features firm, white flesh with large flakes that hold up exceptionally well to high-heat cooking methods. It is an excellent choice for grilling, pan-searing, and broiling. Its firm texture pairs beautifully with bold flavor profiles such as macadamia nut crusts or marinades made with ginger, soy, and garlic. The fish can also be prepared simply with olive oil, lemon, and herbs to let its natural sweetness shine.
