New Miami Eatery Opening – ONO POKE SHOP

New Miami Eatery Opening – ONO POKE SHOP

Ono Poke Shop, opened recently in Wynwood by local, young entrepreneur, Nuriel Mawardi, is the first eatery in Miami’s trend-forward neighborhood to offer authentic poké.  Pronounced POKE-AY, this fresh, raw fish salad is commonplace in Hawaii as a snack, or over rice, as light and quick meal. Traditionally, poke is chunks of tuna marinated in soy and sesame.  Think Hawaiian-style ceviche, but bold and savory, instead of acidic.

Ono Poke Shop has a seasoned sushi chef, Amir Anvari, with a four-year tenure at Miami’s top sushi restaurant, Makoto. Chef Amir serves this Hawaiian delicacy with a Japanese twist, – and a commitment to using only the highest quality fish that is fresh and never frozen.

 

At the fast-casual poke bar counter, guests can order from a selection of signature poke bowls, or handpick top-shelf, sushi-grade fish and innovative toppings, like Yuzu Tobiko (yellow-hued flying fish roe), spicy Red Wakame (seaweed), and Quail Eggs, to create customized bowls.
