A Cambridge restaurant that features a trendy food dish is expanding across the river, opening in a downtown Boston space where a dining spot known for its hamburgers had been.
According to a source (Geoff Wong), Poke City is planning to open on Broad Street in the old Wheelhouse space, with signs out front indicating that it is indeed connected to the restaurant by the same name on Mass. Ave. near Porter Square. Based on the menu at the Cambridge location, expect to see poke (Hawaiian raw fish salad) as well as soups, salads, ice cream, and more at the new outlet. No opening date for the Boston location of Poke City has been given as of yet, so keep checking back for updates.
Wheelhouse closed at the end of last month, though it will soon be opening back up at High Street Place, a new food hall coming to downtown Boston.
The address for the upcoming Poke City in the Financial District is 63 Broad Street, Boston, MA, 02109. The website for the Cambridge location can be found at https://www.pokecityma.com/
