Owner Mariah Pobre <\/strong>shares how the dish is so popular in California that long lines could always be seen wherever poke was served. The Filipinos’ love for rice made her confident this concept would eventually click locally, too.<\/p>\n
Fun Fact: <\/strong>Mariah and her two partners are all college students at Enderun.<\/pre>\n
