Poke is bomb here! They run out so make sure to come before 2 PM! Sack N save seems like a regular grocery store but the poke we had was the best on our trip to Kona. They have 15 different types of poke. I got the traditional shoyu and was delicious! In addition to poke they have regular grocery not hot foods. Can't wait to come back here to try more types of poke! read more

Unlike Foodland, these guys have chopsticks! I got some poke here and quality is almost identical to Foodland, which means I loved it. I learned that I can't eat as much Ahi as I want because of mercury poisoning, but I did also learn that salmon is a lot safer so I ordered a pound of salmon and ate it. It was delicious read more

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. read more

The staff here is absolutely fabulous. It was our first time coming. We really didn't know the store and they were so so helpful and their pokey is on point. There is no better pokey on the big island and second and save. read more

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. read more

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 read more

Went here because of reviews. Pole only available until 330-4. Smelled horrible of fish odor. We did get some fresh made banana and coconut bread that was good. read more

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 read more

Sac and Save is pretty much a Foodland but by a different name. Huge store with a great selection of everything you need. My favorite department is the seafood where you can get all the ingredients to make an awesome poke bowl of get one made by them. My only complaint is that they close this department EARLY...you need to get in before 5 or 6 or you have to go to Safeway. I would rather go to Sac and Save since it is a local chain and the employees are much nicer. read more

When in Big island Hawaii, give this market a try. They have amazing local food at reasonable price. I went for poke. I got 4 type of poke and simply amazing. Its value for money. You get so much actual poke instead of fillers. Excellent presentation. So many different kind of poke. Love it read more

Small grocery store, changed name from Food Land but they're still part of the chain. Fresh produce available and any sort of item you need. I go there for Poke Bowls every time I'm in town. "Good" you ask? Try it yourself! :) Everyone working there smiles and interact with you. Better than SafeWay up the street (maybe the big chain complex play a part in it) read more

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. read more

Come here for poke! Don't come here for groceries, ridiculously overpriced. Go to Walmart which is nearby. read more

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. read more

If you ever spend your vacation in Kona, this is the only place to shop for groceries. They have fresh produce and their poke counter offer a large fresh variety of local seafood & poke. Patronize the local businesses. Stay out of Safeway & Walmart until you go home. read more

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. read more

Great Pokè selection. Very friendly and helpful staff. Can definitely recommend if you want great pokè and don't want to pay high restaurant prices. read more

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. read more

Rumor has it that the poke (octopus, California, and Korean style salmon) here is quite good and this rumor turns out to be true. Incredibly clean market with the friendliest folks. Pick up about two pounds of poke and some wings (lime taste was divine) with some Jans Mixed roots chips. Best Hawaiian lunch down at the old Airport park. So recommended. read more

Not my favorite super market in Kona. Kind of rundown and prices seemed a tick higher than others. Don't think I'll be back.

Has everything you need and has a deli. The poke is really good and a lot of other options for food to go.

Our go to place for poke and fried chicken. We get stuff for da beach and dinner. Great meat and produce sections too.

Cons: Kind of smelly and older looking with limited offerings. Bags of ice are very small. Very limited grab and go. For example the shushi selection was local, but only three kinds. Pros: close to our resort, cheaper than the small market even closer our resort. Catching stuff on sale make Big Island groceries almost affordable. They give you free paper bags. I think we were supposed to bag them ourselves, so we did. Ample room to park in the dedicated lot. read more

Sack N Save - Bean threads - Grocery Near Me - Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

We've been concerned about the long waits at restaurants with the 50% reduction mandate so we've been eating in. We popped in to grab a couple items to supplement our dinner back at the condo. Saw a bag of Korean fried chicken in the cooked food area. Grabbed it. Also got the ahi sushi roll. Both items not very good. The chicken thighs were overcooked and dry. The fish was not very fresh. We won't be buying prepared foods here in the future. Sorry no photos. read more

Poke, poke, poke! Go early as they run out. Made fresh daily. Best poke in Kona. Order by the pound.

This grocery store has been voted best Poke on The big Island for its fresh Poke counter. AND WE COMPLETELY AGREE! The service was excellent. The woman working the counter was kind, friendly and very helpful. Ambience wise its a basic grocery store with AC, but right outside are picnic tables so we were able to sit in the sun and enjoy! Definitely try the Hawaiian Style Spicy Poke and the Wasabi Poke! read more

Definitely come here for reasonably priced and delicious poke! The bakery also has some great deals on single sliced desserts (less than $2). read more

I was on a mission for a Pringles can for a Christmas cooking craft and saw lots of folks with poke. I wandered toward the seafood department and there were a lot of selections I really liked the wasabi. read more

***POKE REVIEW*** After spending so much money on so little poke at various restaurants and cafés, I did extensive online and in-store research to find the best-priced poke. The result? Sack N Save has it! You can choose from a greater variety of poke here than you can at most restaurants on Big Island (surprising, right??). As of September 2017, it's $9.99/lb here vs $14+/lb at other supermarkets & cafés! If you feel like experimenting in the kitchen, you can make poke nachos like I did or whatever your heart desires. There are inexpensive poke bowls here too if you want to just grab and go eat :) Definitely consider stopping by if you're craving poke without poking a hole in your wallet! read more

no ka oi poke on the island. still remains consistent throughout all islands - Foodland/Sack n Save always has amazing fresh selections of most kind of variety of poke. From soft shell crab to ahi, albacore to salmon, scallops to shrimp and so much more. There's rarely a line there as most the folks that come here are locals grocery shopping. Which is a double plus as you can grab other necessities while grabbing the best selection of poke on island. Rest of the grocery store has all items you can need if staying on island with a kitchen. Check out is fast and easy - access is fast and easy. I love it! read more

Heard their poke was good, and they did not disappoint. Had the spicey garlic crunchy spice ahi tuna and the Korean style salmon. Both fish were firm in texture and tasty. Nice surprise from a grocery store. read more

there are many selections of food and produce that you can choose from. rotisserie chicken, plate lunch by the pounds, poke and so on. considering that everything in Kona is so far apart, consider this your one stop shop. there are many food options too in the area if you like. but this place is enough. just be careful don't get carried away. read more

Sack N Save - half rotisserie chicken and a bowl of poke - Grocery Near Me - Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

GET THEIR POKE! Absolutely delicious! Tried 6+ poke variations across multiple days and they were all fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. Would recommend the Hawaiian style and Wasabi style poke as both were super delicious and came with a little bit more sauce to season your makeshift bowl with. Really delightful. read more

In the middle of our bar hopping night out I suddenly had a craving for some cup of noodle-style ramen!? What the... After leaving the Mask-Querdade bar, we headed just up the drive to Sack N Save, which is open 24-hours. They're located in the Lanihau Center. Parking was plentiful, but then again, it was around midnight! The store is an older location and was clean. I didn't observe the details of the store because I was focused on getting my cup of noodles! After finding my precious styrofoam cup of sodium, I was on the hunt for a fork. I didn't want to buy a whole pack of them so I headed to the deli area which of course was closed. There were no utensils on the counter, but I did see some behind the counter. I paused, debating whether or not to sneak behind the counter and grab one, my good conscience told me to just buy a box of my own and take the rest home with me. Then bing! An idea popped in my head. Buy a pack of chopsticks instead because we're always in need of chopsticks! The bored male cashier was smiley and friendly. He was surprised that I had my Maikai Rewards Card on my phone. I guess there's not too many of that in Kona? Suffice to say, I never did eat my cup of noodles and brought it and the chopsticks back to Maui lol! OVERALL: Open 24/7, conveniently located in the middle of Kailua-Kona town. read more

Lots of local Kona beer if that is your calling. Good selection of seltzer too. We tried the Asian pear flavor. Good amount of poke selection and not as pricey as the ogre poke stand. read more

Not too bad of a location near the Historic Kailua Village in Kailua-Kona on Big Island of Hawai'i. Good for all your grocery needs and it's in the Kona Town Shopping Center. Customer service is okay overall and the prices can be a little higher than the other Foodland and Sack N Save locations I've been to on different islands, however. read more

It's not the fanciest of Foodlands (not as many prepared food options as Foodland Farms), but I love their Maika'i store brand snacks, the poke counter, and their adorable reusable shopping bags--we never seem to escape a trip to Hawaii without buying a couple of new ones. read more

Good local foods, fair price. All groceries in Hawaii are expensive. Good poke. Beats a National chain like Walmart or Safeway. Keeps $ in the community. read more

Nice place. Great products. Killer Poke counter area. Kind of pricey though. Related to Foodland I think.
