From a small walk-up window in LoHi, Ohana earned a following and became a go-to lunchtime destination two summers ago. The husband-wife duo behind it took their act to a brick-and-mortar operation across the street, and there they dish out shoyu and spicy tuna bowls, with salmon specials every so often. For some real island flair, the spam musubi is not to be missed.

At the ground level of an apartment building, Denver Poke Company provides fresh, sushi-grade fish available every morning, brought in whole each day and never frozen. Signature bowls include the chile mango salmon and pineapple basil yellowtail.

These handcrafted bowls served at the corner of 17th and Platte Street next to Denver Beer Co. appeared earlier this year, with create-your-own ingredient lists and specialties such as the refreshing Cali bowl with salmon, spicy tuna, crispy garlic, and lotus chips.

One of the latest additions to Denver’s rapidly expanding poke restaurant roster is Aloha Poke Co., a Chicago-based chain that recently opened in Zeppelin Station.

Along with a wide variety of oysters, this seafood-centric Cherry Creek spot serves yellowfin tuna poke from its raw bar, complete with fresh cucumber and snap peas and topped with sesame, scallions, and wontons to scoop up all the flavor.
