Our JourneY to Fresh, Flavorful Poke
Get to Know Our Pokeworks Ohana
From Island Inspiration to Global Flavor
In 2015, a group of friends, inspired by their travels to Hawaii and a shared passion for fresh, flavorful food, envisioned bringing the vibrant essence of poke to the mainland. This vision led to the creation of Pokeworks—a place where the spirit of the islands meets the energy of the city.
A Culinary Sensation
Launching our first location in Midtown Manhattan, we introduced the world to the “sushi burrito,” a novel twist that quickly captured hearts and appetites. The buzz was undeniable, with lines forming out the door and a viral video amassing over 50 million views. Today, Pokeworks stands as a leader in the fast-casual poke scene, celebrated for our customizable bowls and burritos that cater to diverse tastes and lifestyles.
Commitment to Freshness and Sustainability
At Pokeworks, we believe that great taste starts with great responsibility. Our menu is crafted with the freshest, highest-quality ingredients, bringing authentic Hawaiian flavors to every dish. Beyond taste, we’re dedicated to sustainability—sourcing responsibly, supporting ocean conservation, and incorporating eco-friendly practices in our locations.
