Street Parking Great spot for poke that's not in the city (Boston) located right in downtown Lowell. The interior has bright colors around and station where you can order and choose items similar to subways. There is a small seating are by the door as well. The workers here are really nice and have great proportions. You have options of how many scoops you want. Each scoop you can choose the type of protein you want with unlimited toppings but some toppings are an extra cost. I always get the crispy wonton skins, I think they used to have crispy balls but they don't anymore. There are pre made options but I prefer making my own and putting whatever I like on there. The 2 scoop I got was around $20 but it was enough for myself and to share. read more

Big Poké - two scoop bowl - Poke Near Me - Lowell, Massachusetts

My favorite Poke place in New England. They have the freshest toppings, and the tuna is great quality.

Placed my 1st order, was so excited to try poke in my new neighborhood. Ordered through Grubhub for pickup, only to arrive to a handwritten note that they are closed today! No post on their socials and they didn't shut off online ordering! Really disappointing. read more

Big Poké - A handwritten sign on a glass door informs customers that the business will be closed on Saturday, August 16, and will resume normal hours on Monday. The sign is taped to the glass, with reflections of trees, buildings, and chairs visible through the glass. The note is written in black marker on white paper, with a casual, informal style. - Poke Near Me - Lowell, Massachusetts

This is a great place for lunch - very fresh, reasonably priced, friendly staff. You pick your protein, rice, vegetables, toppings and sauces. I always get the spicy tuna poke bowl which is delicious. They have a handful of tables inside. read more

Big Poke is the only create-your-own poke joint in Lowell! It's located on the bustling street in the downtown area. The interior is colorful and bright, big ole Hawaiian vibe mural. Parking kiosk downtown. Here's the thing, Yelp has a way of reeling me in with their photo. And to my disappointment, they no longer have those big containers for the trio+ scoops. Just flimsy plastic dinky ones that can barely hold two scoops of rice, protein, and toppings for over $12. Same prices as Boston, or a couple of towns over in Westford for a big full round bowl of poke goodness vs these small containers! Just saying. Aloha Bowl- 2 scoops of sushi white rice, spicy ahi, huli huli chicken, island mac. The chicken is fine, I like the mac. The spicy ahi was good! Hawaiian Classic Duo- 2 scoops of sushi white rice, ahi shoyu, salmon shoyu, kimchi. I like the proteins with the truffle aioli. The kimchi was eh with this. Overall Service: They were okay. I don't know if I would come back. read more

Came here to try out their poke bowls, so glad I did! It was very refreshing and all of the flavors went really well together. I got the Hawaiian classic duo, which I would definitely recommend ! It comes with two scoops of rice, ahi shoyu, and salmon shoyu. I didn't get the kimchi on the side because I can't tolerate spicy! I god the macaroni salad instead and that was delicious! She recommended sauce combinations for me, which went really well together. I wish they still had the Hawaiian drinks !! I'd definitely come back again ! read more

First time having poke. Was talked they how to order by the guy behind the counter. Chose four diff proteins for our two meals. 11.95 each. Two scoops of rice each. Then we chose our sides and toppings. It was really good. I wish our drinks from the cooler were cold. Didn't know until I took a sip it was warm. Ugh. I wish the guy wasn't so precise either. I mean I pay an extra buck for some fish roe and it was literally just a small scoop. No healing spoonful ok anything you asked for. That's the only downside I feel was there. We'll be back. read more

Great bowls, choice of protein, interesting veggies. I had just come from the National Park and wanted a quick lunch on my way back to the car. It was delicious. I got the spicy tuna and seaweed salad. They give you as many additional veggies as you want, so I had to pace myself and not overdo it--so many great choices! Highly recommended. read more

Just okay - Hard to find good poke in this area so keeping that in mind. I had my hopes up for this place since I saw they had Mac salad and Hawaiian soda so thought it might be more authentic. Food - poke is good quality, disappointed that the rice was just regular rice and not sushi rice. The Mac salad was not Hawaiian style and wasn't very flavorful. Spam musubi was okay... not as good as ones I can make myself and I'm terrible at cooking , but didn't taste bad... Price - pretty expensive considering the amount of sushi you get. Also the prices on Grubhub are super inflated making ordering less enticing. Overall this is better than the other poke place I tried in this area but is still too expensive for the quality/quantity of food you actually get. read more

After an unhealthy weekend I was looking forward to some refreshing poke. I found this place on yelp and had to go check it out. Unfortunately it didn't live up to the hype. Here's the F.A.S.T (Food Ambiance Service Trendsetter) Review Food 2 I've tried A LOT of poke places and I'd say this one doesn't even come close to being at the top in terms of food. First, a regular size is only one scoop of protein?! At most places it's usually two scoops for regular and three for large. Also all the toppings that I wanted was extra $$ when in comparison to other poke places they would cost the same as the other toppings (for instance seaweed salad). The taste itself was good but nothing exceptional. Ambiance 3 Nothing out of the ordinary in terms of ambiance. Just a standard place with a good amount of seating Service 4 Service was good and the person was extremely helpful in helping me pick the sauce that goes best with the toppings I chose Trendsetter 2 Offers your pretty typical poke toppings. Some of the pictures on yelp of the poke makes it look different from the one that I got. I'm wondering if they recently changed up their offerings? Overall, not sure I'd come back! read more

The food is outstanding, friendly service, and a chill atmosphere. I got the large meal, and It did not disappoint portion and quality-wise. The selection is excellent, and without the sauces, I'm sure you can save a ton of calories if on a diet. The staff was patient since I was with my mom; that was important. I will definitely keep coming back! read more

Ordered 2 bowls and 2 drinks, total was around $31. The aloha bowl is a part of their specials. The huli huli is super good, definitely would get it again. For the second bowl, I got the 2 choice with 2 scoops of white rice, ahi shoyu, spicy salmon, island Mac salad and crab salad. The ahi shoyu is also really good and full of flavor, definitely would get this again. The fish is very fresh and portions are perfect, very filling. For drinks we got the island ice tea and lilikoi passion Hawaiian sun. read more

It was good didn't know it was cold but it was delicious !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you looking for a low diet salad this is The place for you

Used to love this place, work in Lowell and used to have it at least once, sometimes twice a week. I have attempted to stop by 5 times over the past month (all within the hours they posted that they are open and every single time they have been closed, with no explanation. They have not changed their hours online or on the door. Their preset voicemail when you call does not even offer an explanation as to why they have such terrible inconsistent hours. I have even seen employees inside ignoring people outside looking for an explanation as to why they are not open or when they will be again. Horrible way to run a business. read more

I just want to say that Big Poke has the BEST poke I've ever had. From the freshness of the fish, to the flavor, the perfect consistency of sushi rice, DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ABOUT THE GOCHU SHOYU, it's always a 10/10 from us. My partner and I drive from Boston to get this Poke literally any chance we get. We've literally debated moving to Lowell to be closer to this restaurant so that we can enjoy it more often because I would in fact eat it multiple times per week and probably die from mercy poisoning but I'd be able to die happy with a stomach full of big poke read more

We came at 2 PM on a Tuesday and walked in. One table was seated, but the employee kept saying they were closed. It says on their sign that M-F, they're open until 8 PM. read more

Closed. Not sure if they're even open for business still because this is the second time we pull up to this location during what should be their business hours but they're closed. I even checked their Facebook page for updates but there were none so I'm really not sure what's going on. Photo taken on a Saturday 1/18/20 at 12:45pm. read more

My first time in Lowell and one of my top destinations was definitely Big Poke. So glad I got to try because it's the MOST AUTHENTIC I've had in the East Coast. Their "Island Mac" is BOMB and I got to try the Hawaiian Sun drink and it was so good!! I made my own combo that picks 2 bases, 2 protein, and 2 sides, as well as crunch and sauce. I love that they have quinoa brown rice as an option! Their variety is very on point. Not even Boston has these many options and flavors as this place does! Already thinking about my next visit!! read more

We had a Hawaiian theme luncheon today at work and decided to give this place a try. We weren't disappointed at all. We each ordered our own meal so I got the 3 protein option with spicy tuna, spicy salmon and creamy salmon with salads and other fixin' and shoyu sauce. Everything went well together with all different flavor sensations happening, just as I had anticipated! My other team members were pleasantly delighted with their meals and will be going back to try again. Overall, delish, fresh and great service! Give this place a try! read more

First time there- absolutely awesome experience! Staff patiently explained menu items, food was fantastic and the atmosphere is wonderfully low key. Had a great time and am definitely looking forward to coming back. read more

I've been here a few times, and only once did I see other people eating in the store. Each time has been a very filling and yummy experience. So don't let the empty store front scare you, as people may be ordering items for take out like I do! The format is the usual Poke Style, so if you've been to other places, it's the same format. They charge by the scoop for the protein and the many of the toppings are unlimited. There are premium items that will have an up-charge so be weary of that. If you're not sure what to get, they do have pre-selected options so they can build your Poke quickly. Or, you can do your own selections with scoops. The portions are a very size, so they're not skimping on the scoops on the portions. The sauces are fun too. It's fresh and everything is made to order. read more

Came to Lowell to visit and heard of this place and had it on my mind. Came back a few days later and had to try it! Customer service was great, the guy assembling the bowl was nice and gave good recommendation, also very friendly. I love how they make it very presentable, we all eat with our eyes first! The playlist was early 2000 rnb/hiphop, was great to listen to while eating and the atmosphere was very bright and welcoming. This is probably one of the best poke places I have been to in general. Portion, Quality and Price. Everything was perfect and this will definitely be a place where I will come back to even though I am not from here. They have a point system as well! read more

Big Poké - 3 choice bowl - Poke Near Me - Lowell, Massachusetts

WOW! I went by last night and I can't stop myself from going back for lunch today. When I say fresh, I mean the tuna must have been swimming this morning! I had never had poke before and after seeing a few reviews of this place (and my friends constant nagging lol) I decided to trek down there and try it. It's a cute place, pretty casual. Good place to stop for a quick bite and not wait too long for it. They have 3 options between 1, 2, and 3 choices per plate. I ordered the 2 choice with white rice as the base, ahi shoyu & shrimp as protein, island mac & green tea noodles as a side, green onions as a topping, and sweet soy glaze & sweet shoyu & spicy aioli as the sauce. I feel like you can make any combination and it will still be amazing! The portion was a great size and super filling. The ahi shoyu was the star of the bowl and it was fantastic! The tuna had a great texture to it and the ginger soy glaze was a perfect compliment. Already on my way for my next Poke bowl! read more

After coming here a few times I can for sure say I love having a Poké spot in DT Lowell! Very fair pricing and great portion sizes, 2 choice box is super satisfying. Awesome options for fish; I have been able to try most of their fish options and love their Shoyu and Spicy Salmon or Tuna. Haven't tried their chicken/tofu options, but it's good to know that they have other options for non-fish lovers. They have a lot of toppings and side choices, you get 2-3 side options depending on the box you choose, and pay $1 for extra "premium" sides, like kimchi or seaweed salad, but my favorite are the mac salad and green tea noodles. For toppings I choose: edamame, ginger, tobiko, pineapple, quail eggs, and a bit of mixed greens. They also have tasty sauces, my go to are: gochu shoyu, sweet shoyu, and the citrus shoyu! Highly recommend if you're looking for a quick, healthier, casual, affordable, and very filling meal! read more

My takeaway was the freshness and taste! Great food=great mood! Service was awesome, JR was very patient with my friend the menu was a bit overwhelming, BUT I love that the food stations were labeled & clean. Portion and price was reasonable. The masubi hit the spot, Hawaiian chips are coming, the chef is from Hawaii so bringing the island flavor to the city of Lowell. This place is a gem, healthy options, quick for the college kids, hits the sushi craving for a reasonable price! Gotta love that! Definitely will be back to try something else! Enjoy & support local business!! Thanks big poke for the yummy food! read more

I'm not an expert on poke. Having come here to have my second ever poke bowl I felt that this one blew my first out of the water. My first was somewhere in Virginia and it was lacking. This one had so many choices and toppings and was overall tasty. I finished my portion satisfied. I got half white and half brown rice as a base to my Classic Hawaiian special. It was great. A little pricey but I'd like to come back. read more

Big Poké - Mine was the bottom one: classic hawaiian special - Poke Near Me - Lowell, Massachusetts

Three stars because it's close to home and there's a little more option for the protein. Price wise, I feel like it's a bit pricey. Especially since it's an extra $1 for "premium toppings". I know, your price is based on location and etc, but I could actually get more somewhere else. Also, parking is a hassle as well. Good luck w/ your business! read more

It has a good selection of toppings for meal choice. The food and service was good. I'll go back if I want a healthy, fresh and quick meal

what poké place doesn't have avocado...... Additionally, the spicy salmon had a really strange fishy taste to it... just didn't taste very fresh. It really sucks cause I was really excited and had so much hope for this place seeing that most of the poké restaurants are located in the boston area. Fortunately poké is becoming more popular so hopefully this won't be the only place UPDATE: I think they have avocado now? Just looking at pictures, so I'm gonna give this place a shot again based on the great reviews it's been getting! read more

Honestly this was my first time trying Poké in Lowell! I know this place just opened in November, but let me tell you guys it's so worth it to come in! The place is wicked cute, atmosphere very welcoming. It's a nice place if you want quality time with a friend or significant other with some kind faces. When I came in the owner (I think) greeted us and guided us through the menu, recommended a few items and even allowed me to take samples of anything to see if I'd like it before I put it on my bowl. He was very patient with us and he had great vibes! I got a big poke bowl with some extra items, a little spam wrap with white rice and nori wrapping with a drink and it all costed about $20 now don't let this price scare you! I'm telling you, the portions were perfect for the price and I couldn't even finish my meal! And to whoever said they do not give out to go bags, definitely lied. I got this blue bag, extra chopsticks napkins and more when I was ready to go! They are very kind, and provide some really delicious and fresh product. I recommend the ahi shoyu and any of their spicy salmon or ahi tuna. I didn't try the shrimp but my best friend told me it was delicious and everything is a perfect amount of spicy! Not too hot, but definitely a kick! You can tell they make their food with love. Don't miss out on this place guys! Very healthy fresh food with some good people. Plus, their island Mac is SOOOO GOOD!! To paraphrase, quite cute place, fresh delicious Hawaiian food and drinks, kind people, free samples, to go boxes and bags, and you get points every-time you buy food there!

Big Poke was taken over by new management late in 2022 and now in March of 2023 they are going great! The poke menu has been enhanced and you can now go to lunch with your non tuna friends as they have added terriyaki chicken and a pineapple based Huli Huli chicken. You can have a cooked chicken based bowl which has all the normal goodies in it. Some just skip the protein and make it a veggie bowl. Most importantly, you can count on this management team to have the doors open every day from noon to 8PM. The poke is still awesome and it's great to have it in downtown Lowell! read more
