Using the same high standard of quality sourcing that Michael is known for, Poca features fresh ingredients, thoughtfully sourced. Poca features the bright flavors of Mexico, focusing on authentic preparations. Poca brings together Michael’s long-time love of Mexican food with the traditional flavors and preparations he has researched on his travels to Oaxaca. All dishes from simple salsas, to braised meats, to fresh corn tortillas is prepared from scratch. Poca focuses on bringing authentic ingredients, preparations, and flavor combinations in nontraditional presentations to Ohio City.
*Poca sources from small family farms in Ohio, whenever possible. Due to their traditional use of corn masa, the entire menu is gluten free.
