Growing poke chain Pokemoto will soon open a Clermont location at 2635 S Hwy 27 #102, according to recent reporting in FFBW. The location will be run by Mazine Alaoui Ismaili, franchisee of the upcoming Celebration spot.
“Pokémoto is a steadily growing, culture-rich franchise aiming to become a global brand,” the official website states.
“Pokémoto shops offers Hawaiian style poké bowls and an exceptional experience that is quick, healthy, affordable, and most importantly delicious. Our Hawaiian style poké bowl locations have proven success that boasts in highly rated reviews with an established social media presence.”
“Thomas Nguyen founded Pokémoto in New Haven, CT in 2017. While living in Hawaii, he discovered and fell in love with traditional Hawaiian poké,” the official website adds.
“He realized there was a gap in the New England market which is known for amazing seafood but was missing poké. Thomas gambled on a poké bowl company in a vacant location across from Yale University and risked it all! Luckily, it was a success and the first Pokémoto shop was born!”
FFBW reports the restaurant will be open by August.
