Island Fin Poké will open in St. Petersburg, Florida. The new store will be located at 210 37th Ave. N., according to a press release.

The St. Petersburg Island Fin Poké is slated to open in mid-January and will be owned by Matthew and Stephanie McNulty.

"When we first became introduced to this restaurant concept, it was the three core pillars of the brand that impressed us the most: guest experience, quality of ingredients and Ohana," Matthew McNulty said in the press release. "We are extremely excited to now be a driving force behind Island Fin Poké and introduce the brand to many more local communities in Florida with our plans for future expansion."

Guests can choose from responsibly sourced ingredients and customize their own poké bowl, with options including over eight proteins, 25 different toppings, gluten-free house-made sauces and specialty mix-ins. The St. Petersburg location will feature indoor and outdoor table seating, beer and wine, online ordering, third-party delivery and curbside pickup.

"We were very impressed by the culture of Island Fin Poké brand and the healthy menu items it has to offer its guests," said Stephanie McNulty. "We are currently exploring ways to involve our new business in the St. Petersburg community and can't wait to open our doors for the first time."

Island Fin Poké was founded in 2017 and began franchising in 2018. There are more than 20 locations open.
