I love tuna poke and am definitely eager to see how this place is!

Weirdly, actual poke (in Hawaii) isn't spelled "poké". Just poke. I guess they spelled it like Pokémon so it wouldn't look like they were suggesting an effective way to get someone's attention.

If it's supposed to be pronounced "poe-kay", then they're spelling it phonetically so we know the E is not silent.

This is true.
