Melbourne is the first Kona Poké restaurant in Brevard County, to add to Kona Poké Central Florida locations in Sanford and Apopka and Kona Poké Express in Melbourne Beach.


“We're excited to finally open Melbourne, the first Kona Poké in Brevard County,” says Co-Founder Ernie Falco III. “As a Brevard county resident myself, my team and I couldn't be happier to bring our love of fresh, healthy, quick-serve food options to the local community. We look forward to everyone joining the celebration all day and experiencing the incredibly delicious, unmatched fresh island bowl offerings we’re known for.”
