If you’re craving delicious, fresh, and sustainable Hawaiian poké, your options in California are about to get even better! Poké House, the rapidly expanding fast-casual franchise, is officially putting down deeper roots across the Golden State with three new franchise signings, proving that America’s appetite for healthy, customizable bowls is far from satisfied.
The new signings bring the brand’s total to an impressive 70 signed locations nationwide, showing that this concept is truly booming.
New Locations Hitting the Golden State
The latest deals will spread the fresh flavor of Poké House across three key California communities:
-
Lathrop: A single-unit franchise signed by Kevin and Irene Rosales.
-
Carlsbad & Encinitas: Two units secured by Trinh An Khang Kieu and Thi Van Anh Doan, bringing more fresh bowls to the San Diego-area coastline.
This news is just the latest milestone in a growth spurt that’s been happening since 2023. This year alone, Poké House has already celebrated new openings in Santa Rosa, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and San Diego, with a grand opening for the Pleasanton location kicking off in October. And they aren’t stopping at the California border, with locations slated for development in Arizona, Florida, Oregon, and Nevada in 2026!
Why Everyone Wants a Bowl
So, what’s fueling this explosive growth? It comes down to a simple, winning formula that hits all the right notes for modern diners.
“We’ve built an operation that’s simple to manage with a menu that appeals to a variety of diners and the increased trend of healthy eating, making Poké House a great fit for most markets,” said James Deng, CEO of Poké House.
Simply put, guests love the demand for fresh, customizable, and health-conscious food, and franchise owners appreciate the comprehensive training and support the company offers. It’s a win-win that’s turning Poké House into one of the fastest-growing franchises in the U.S.
Looks like the poké craze is here to stay, and California will be the center of the delicious action!
