Pokeworks rolls into Brooklyn
Eatery offers build-your-own bowls of Hawaiian-inspired fare
Pokéworks, a fast-casual poke
restaurant that specializes in
Hawaiian-inspired poke bowls
and burritos using the highest quality
of responsibly sourced ingredients,
debuted at 258 Seventh Ave. on
Nov. 5.
The island favorite has been
transported to Brooklyn by local
entrepreneurs Michael Pennartz
and Oleg Rud.
Rud came to New York in 1990
and fulfilled the American dream
by starting his own banking company,
and Pennartz comes from a
family of entrepreneurs and has a
career background in finance.
Both have lived in Brooklyn, and
found the light and flavorful ingredients
and poke recipes a perfect fit
for Park Slope, so they chose to invest
in Pokéworks.
Inspired by sustainable, seasonal,
and natural ingredients,
Pokéworks believes in the importance
of meeting today’s needs
while preserving our oceans.
