According to city data, the Marina's recently shuttered Mexican restaurant Mamacita may be transforming into a fish-forward, possibly Hawaiian-inspired concept by the same owners, judging by clues in the business name.

A liquor license transfer at 2317 Chestnut St. was filed on March 30th under the LLC "Wiki Wiki Fish Co.," and a separate business name was filed for "Wiki Wiki," but that's all we know for now. ("Wikiwiki" means "hurry" or "quickly" in Hawaiian.)

Could the new business be aiming to compete with nearby poke bowl outlets like Poki Time and Pacific Catch? Let us know if you know more about what's coming.
