Beyond Restaurant Group, LLC (Pokeworks)

Pokeworks is an American fast-casual restaurant chain specializing in Hawaiian-inspired poke. Founded in 2015 in New York City, its mission is to promote a healthy lifestyle and diet by serving fresh, healthy, and delicious Hawaiian-influenced poke bowls and burritos using sustainable ingredients. The company's corporate headquarters are located in Irvine, California.

Pokeworks offers a customizable menu through its "Poke Your Way™" approach, allowing guests to build their own poke bowls, burritos, or salads with a variety of proteins, mix-ins, toppings, and proprietary sauces. Beyond custom creations, the menu also features chef-curated "Signature Works," Hawaiian Hot Plates, sides, desserts, kids bowls, and signature drinks. The brand emphasizes fresh, high-quality, and responsibly sourced seafood, catering to diverse dietary preferences including vegan, gluten-free, and cooked protein options.

As a privately held company, Pokeworks has established itself as a leading and rapidly expanding fast-casual poke brand globally. As of August 2026, it operates 85 locations across 22 U.S. states, Canada, and Taiwan, with ongoing plans for further expansion. Regina Cheung, who also serves as CFO, was promoted to CEO in August 2023, becoming the first woman and Asian-American to hold the position within the company. In 2018, Toridoll Holdings Corporation, a Tokyo-based restaurant company, made a significant investment in Pokeworks to support its growth initiatives. Recent menu innovations include the introduction of "Poke Bombs" for convenient grab-and-go options and a High-Protein Surf & Turf Bowl.
