Poke bowls have become somewhat of a trend in Lebanon within the past couple of years. It’s no surprise that many restaurants serving this delicious Hawaiian dish can now be found in and around Beirut. The newest one is based in the heart of Ashrafieh, and it’s conveniently named NIU.
Restaurants serving poke bowls in a “choose-your-own-adventure” format are the latest craze, and NIU is certainly leading the pack when it comes to the best customizable poke bowls in Lebanon.
Conveniently located in Ashrafieh – Sassine, the place is bright and very cosy, with a lovely wooden decoration, and a very modern feel. It’s fast casual, as in you select the ingredients to be included in your bowl, and there’s enough comfortable seating to eat there.
When building your own bowl, you can start off with a base of greens or rice, or take the easy way out and choose from a selection of bowls with preconceived items.
The staff are exceptionally lovely, and the owners are usually there to welcome each and every customer. NIU also has a special delivery service, which guarantees that your custom bowl reaches your home as fresh as could be and as if you are having it right there in the restaurant.
So, if you haven’t tried the place yet… you are missing out!
