    Fresh poke
    Nick D.

    Conveniently located for folks staying downtown. Great selection of fresh produce, and undeniably the best POKE in town! Always fresh, great variety, and friendly service!

    Poke
    Nasif H.

    This was the 1st stop after we landed in Kona. It's a little run down when you walk in, but Reddit told us the poke here is just as good as everywhere else. It absolutely didn't disappoint. There's literally a million kind of poke and you can try samples. The ladies behind the counter were super nice and welcoming. They know exactly what the most popular things are and will tell you what pairs well together. If you're in a pinch or in a budget, it's hard to beat the 2-protein $10.99 poke bowl.

    Poke Bar
    Mary N.

    Come here for the poke bar, beware of the other food. Bought some sealed, new, not expired pack of cheese. When we opened the cheese for our picnic, half of the cheese slices contained a large amount of mold. Also got a package of pork rinds that were stale. The poke bar was the only decent thing about this place. But I don't think I will be back. If their packaged food is that stale/bad, I'm worried about the freshness of the poke.

    Shoyu Ahi poke
    Annette R.

    Scratch the indoor or outdoor dining experience, ask for some chopsticks at the cash register, and head to the park or beach with your poke. Pay between $23-26 per pound and select from at least six different types of fresh poke at the Sack N Save seafood counter. The fish is not cut as fine as Da Poke Shack and the chunks are not consistent in size, but the flavor is spot on and delicious. If you are like us and want to have poke most every day but your budget cannot take the expense, try getting your poke at the local supermarket. They also are a wide variety of traditional sides (macaroni salad, edamame, etc.). @sturdygirlstyle #sturdygirlstyle

    Crab poke!
    Jane N.

    Went there to get some Poke for dinner, bought Furikake Ahi, Shrimp poke, Crab poke & Edamame, The crab meat was so sweet and just the right spiciness for me, no wonder there was a long line at around 6:00 pm

    shoyu ahi / california

    Sack N Save poke was the best we had on the island. We loved the shoyu ahi the best. A large poke bowl is perfect to share between 2 people. Loved how fresh the fish was.

    This is your place to get a really fantastically priced poke bowl!!! I was so happy to have a fresh bowl made and priced out at the counter. I am basing this review strictly off of the poke experience although I did buy a bag of coffee as well. I found the prices to be great and the staff members were so nice. Highly recommend if you want a bowl to go.

    Poke at the beach

    Sacked or save? We have a joke about sack n save. Somethings you can find a deal others you might be sacked. There's a Safeway and Walmart close by, so choose wisely. Things you save: the poke! It's good and it's $2 less than Safeway. It's the best. Grab some and go to the beach! The spam masubi are a good deal too and good! Beats some restaurants. Things you get sacked on: the styrofoam cooler. It's twice the price here compared to Walmart and Safeway. You'll also get sacked on alcohol. Better to go Walmart for that. We still like it here because of the poke! Can't beat it.

    Sack n Save is managed and owned by Foodland and basically each store is somehow similar. Came here for some snacks and water throughout our Kona venture. Aisles are packed with goodies - locally & internationally. Their produce is pretty good but not a lot of choices. The store was pretty clean and neat. They got limited choices of deli though. Staffs are just okay, not the kindest. Well, I guess what's important is that you got the things you need from here. Checkout and go, let's all be straightforward especially in the middle of pandemic! Mahalo for reading & happy juandering fellow yeeps.

    The best poke in town by comparison to other Sack N Save on the islands. Great marinated raw crabs too!

    Got the poke in the back, after eating at umeke's, this grocery store can't compare. It's very good for the price though.

    Not the cleanest place, and very high prices. I like to support local companies, but they are not reasonably priced at all.

    we saw the store sign as we drove by and decided to try it out…read more Found good prices for 1/2 pound Ono fish and a 1/2 pound ahi tuna fish; so far, the Ono fish was delicious. Good quality potatoes, fresh broccoli. Customer service: very good. Parking: easy Tip: take the scenic drive south from Kailua-Kona to Captain Cook area.

    I phoned in a special order for a Yellow-fin Ahi block from the fish cutter himself. He reassured…read moreme that he would have it ready for me to pickup later in the day and that it would be readily retrievable by any of the available staff. He emphatically declared that it was not unusual for him to take an order over the phone. I should have realized that it was probably not going to happen when I had to give him my name before ending the call. In retrospect, I should have called him later in the day to see if it was done but it was the first time dealing with him so I was giving him the benefit of my doubts. Guess what? After making a special trip to the store, there was no order to be found anywhere. That was my protein for the next three days and what they had in the counter was not that appetizing and were much larger cuts of fish cuts and no guarantees that they were, in fact, yellow-fin tuna. He guaranteed that he was going to cut a specific weight for me of yellow-fin tuna caught fresh the previous day. I spent at least ten minutes on the phone with him having a very friendly conversation that sounded genuine. The staff offered no apologies or compensation of any sort for my ordeal almost insinuating that I was fabricating the whole situation.

    Can I give this place more than 5 stars? It deserves it!…read more We had shoyu, lemon avocado, and umami ahi; kalua pig; ube coconut and cucumber sides. Every bite we had just had us in heaven. Yes, everything we had was amazing, but our favorite bites were the umami ahi, kalua pork, and cucumber salad. Service was quick and good. A good amount of nice outdoor seating, and we found parking easily in the lot. Do not miss out, this Pa'akai Poke is a taste of heaven!

    My wife and I stopped by Paakai Poke & Deli as our first stop from the airport. Between the two of…read moreus, we split a plate with three scoops of poke -- umami ahi, furikake sea salt, and spicy salmon, along with mac salad, coconut ube and white rice with furikake, eel sauce and soy sauce. This all came out to $31.30 after tax, which is almost the same price as their large plate at $35.00, with two fewer scoops of rice. Of the items we ordered, the ube coconut was by far my favorite. I am definitely coming back again for more of this. I've never had ube in this format before, but the mild sweetness of the potato came through, and I enjoyed the chunky mashed potato texture. The next item I liked from the plate was the mac salad. I can't remember the last time I've had mac salad with this much black pepper sprinkled throughout it. The black pepper brought an unexpected amount of heat. Additionally, I thought the noodle were cooked perfectly. In most mac salads that I've had, the macaroni has been cooked far too long, but that was not the case here. I also appreciate that the mac salad was not drowned with mayo, another flaw I commonly see with this dish. Although the poke here is fresh, and the pieces are nicely cut -- all uniform in size, I thought the poke was a bit too salty, and needed to be enjoyed with the rice. The rice itself was a bit on the mushy side. Overall, we had a pretty solid meal at Paakai Poke & Deli. If you're in this area, stop by for the coconut ube -- you won't regret it.
