Big Fin Melrose, LLC

Big Fin Poke in Melrose is a Hawaiian restaurant serving fresh, made-to-order poke bowls. Customers build bowls their own way from quality ingredients and bold flavors, and the restaurant describes its food as made with aloha. The Melrose shop is the brand’s Massachusetts outpost, joining two locations in Maine, and every bowl is put together to order. The restaurant’s stated aim is to be a welcoming spot that people are happy to come back to again and again.

The family-owned business was founded in Maine in 2016 around a simple idea: fresh poke with genuine hospitality. It grew from its first location one community at a time and has kept the same focus on fresh food and a welcoming experience as it expanded. The Melrose opening was marked with a ribbon cutting, and the company is celebrating ten years in business.
