Pokito

Pokito runs its kitchen out of the basement and sends food up to the bar on a pulley system, where you also place your order. The short menu of Latin-Asian mashups includes a Coco Bowl with crispy coconut rice and plantains and a Green Bowl topped with katsu chicken, alongside tropical cocktails that would suit a beach more than a spot under the Williamsburg Bridge. It works as a fast, healthy Tuesday dinner as easily as the start of a Saturday night out. The room is small and trendy without trying too hard.
