Ensoku Ramen Replaces PoKing In Santa Monica

I’m not exactly sure when it happened, but a new noodle joint has quietly slipped into the location that once housed the self-described “King of Poke”, PoKing at 2307 Main St. in Santa Monica.  An awning has appeared that lets us know Ensoku Ramen now resides at that address.  What’s on offer?  Rolls and ramen with “authentic broth, fresh ingredients”, and a “wide variety”.  And they’re open for take away.

PoKing Dishing Raw Fish To Main St. Soon…

I’d thought we’d seen a slow down in the poke phenomena that has descended upon us in recent years, but apparently not.  Another contender is vying for our attention in Santa Monica.  Signs are up on the space that once was occupied by Rita’s Frozen Custard, at 2307 Main St., announcing that self-described “King of Poke” PoKing will soon be moving in.
