Family, food, and meaningful moments are at the heart of Uncle Sharkii Poke Bar. The story began in February 2018 when a young girl named Melody received a shark plush from an uncle she had never met before. That simple gift sparked a bond built over shared snacks and boba milk tea, creating a memory that deeply inspired founder and CEO Fen Reyes. Witnessing how food brought family together planted the seed for a brand rooted in connection, warmth, and genuine care.
Inspired by that special moment and blended with Raymond Reyes’ Hawaiian upbringing, Uncle Sharkii Poke Bar was created as a quick-serve concept that celebrates fresh flavors and simple joys. Every bowl reflects a commitment to quality ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and a welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels like family. The focus remains clear and intentional, serving delicious poke while honoring the values of food, family, and simplicity in every experience.
