Fresh Bowls. Island Vibes. Two Locations.
Authentic Hawaiian comfort food in central Illinois. Poke bowls, ramen, plate lunches, and more — made to order in Mahomet and Champaign.
The Pineapple Boat
It's become the dish people drive for. A hollowed-out pineapple packed with teriyaki, rice, and island flavor — as fun to look at as it is to eat.

A Little Piece of Hawaii
Turquoise walls, a surfboard on the wall, island music — regulars call it a mini-vacation. Owner Shai is usually there to make sure you feel right at home.
Hawaii Found a Home in Illinois
The Poke Shack started as one small spot in Mahomet and grew into something central Illinois didn't know it was missing. Real Hawaiian comfort food, made fresh, served by people who genuinely love it.
What our guests are saying
Absolutely loved this Hawaiian restaurant! We ordered two poke bowls—one with tuna and the other with salmon—and both were amazing. The portions were generous, the prices were reasonable, and the ingredients were super fresh. The rice was perfectly cooked, and the sauce added a fantastic touch. The staff was friendly and helpful, making the experience even better.

Absolutely great! Amazing food. I was town for a science competition and we went out to dinner. We got there after they closed, but they still served all 8 of us. Very chill atmosphere, reminds me of a nice trip back to India and if I'm in the area, I will definitely return! Lots of vegan options too.

Absolutely love Poke Shack! The foods are so fresh and well prepared. I’m so glad we have this hidden gem. The price is reasonable, and the portion is fulfilling. Would love to come back for their curry and bowls.
