Here in the Treasure Valley, there are few things that we love more than a local business. Whether it's a local store or a local restaurant, there is a sense of charm in a business like this and we as a community seem to understand how crucial it is to support them.

Sometimes--said local restaurants just do things better. Better meals, better portions, fresher ingredients.

One local restaurant, Paddles Up Poké, has been serving up bigger, better, fresher, and arguably Idaho's FAVORITE poké bowls for some time now. A recent announcement has fans ecstatic.

Take a look at the BIG Announcement for Paddles Up Poke's big expansion in Meridian, Idaho!

It's fair to say that the addition of Paddles Up in this part of the Treasure Valley is going to be a big hit! 

We can remember when that strip mall was a field!!

We are so excited to be able to serve this amazing community! Thank you for supporting us and being the best customers we could have ever dreamed of! Cheers to Paddles Up #6!
