The Chipotle of Poke
08.24.15
For poke fans and anyone who loves fish tacos, the best news of the day is that Mission Viejo-based fins Poke Fusion is reopening today with a new makeover and all new customizable bowls—think the Chipotle of poke!
Now, fins Poke Fusion focuses on custom-built poke bowls, macho rolls and fresh fish tacos, using only the finest ingredients. You can build your own meals with the help of fins’ talented sushi chefs, brothers Peter and David Cho.
The Chos began their culinary career nearly a decade ago at a sushi restaurant in the same spot, and are committed to offer the highest quality fish and ingredients available at an affordable price. It’s not easy to find poke of this quality at another fast casual poke eatery.
At fins Poke Fusion you can choose a poke bowl, wrap or taco. Bowls come in three size options with choice of fresh fish selections, including salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, scallops, albacore, shrimp, and octopus. From there, you can select from three house-made poke sauces, a rice or salad base, and more than a dozen fresh ingredients.
Open for lunch and dinner from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.
fins Poke Fusion is at 28251 Marguerite Pkwy, Suite A in Mission Viejo.
