    SUPERFOOD BOWLS
    Eduardo C.

    We stopped by BoomChia during Montclair Pride and were surprised to find it pretty empty, but it ended up being the perfect escape from the rain and humidity. The open space and cold air inside were a total relief. The staff was super friendly and ready to help. When they noticed I was struggling to choose, they suggested the "everything" option--and I'm so glad they did. I got the açaí, pudding, coconut base, and all the toppings. It was a perfect combo of flavors and textures. My partner went with a smoothie that was equally delicious and a bit less sweet. As a fun bonus, they were giving out free BoomChia t-shirts with every bowl purchase that day. Great experience overall, and I'd definitely come back.

    High quality ingredients, great service and extremely clean and bright establishment. Açaí bowl: Base: açaí, pitaya, Boomchia, ancient grains. Toppings: banana, strawberries, blueberries, toasted coconut and almond butter Came her around lunchtime on a Sunday and it was quiet but busy. I was greeted by the owner of the establishment who was extremely friendly and very nice. The ingredients here are extremely fresh. Strawberries and blueberries were perfectly sweet. Portions were great and everything "blended" together very well. I hope this business succeeds and expands to more parts of NJ

    Acai and blue chia bases, chocolate granola, pineapple, blueberry, peanut sauce, coconut, almonds, and goji berry.

    A good place for a very fresh acai bowl with lots of customization options. I got the acai and blue chia bases, chocolate granola, pineapple, blueberry, peanut sauce, coconut, almonds, and goji berry. It was very tasty, although it felt more like a desert than a health food. There were lots of different bases and toppings so I could definitely see trying this again just to see what else they offer. I knocked off 1/2 a star due to the price (my small bowl and a coconut water ended up being 17.99!) I knocked off another 1/2 star due to the basic ambience and service. Nice and clean but not a place I would really hang out.

    Got the large bowl and wow it was a lot! Place is very clean and the food looks fresh! Service was very friendly. Def check out if you're in the area!

    Fruit options
    Jessica I.

    Highly recommend!! It's not listed but I got their hojicha base, as well as their mango base. First place I've been to that has hojicha base! They also offered to dice or slice my strawberries, which is also the first time I experienced that at an acai place! Samples available for the bases. Great selection for everything. Very clean inside. Helpful staff.

    Bowl with Boomchia pudding, blue coconut and matcha base
    Beatrice P.

    This place is great for what it is! Friendly staff, fresh ingredients, wide variety, and great value with unlimited choices. The inside is casual as you would expect from a place like this. Only thing that was a slight let down was the flavor in the bases we chose - they really didn't taste like much (matcha and blue coconut). The dark chocolate granola was out of this world- definitely try it out!

    Delicious bowl
    Kayla L.

    Checked out this spot in Montclair and was really happy with the results. BOOMCHIA pudding with blue coconut, topped with pumpkin seeds and flax, strawberries, bananas and pineapples. Service was excellent and place is very clean! I've always been hesitant to try healthy bowl places because I've always had the philosophy of why would I buy something simple that I can make at home, but the attention of detail put into these bowls is not something I can replicate at home. My friend went here and said I had to try it and I'm glad I did.

    This place was awesome, it was similar to a playa bowls but with way more options and unique/healthy toppings. The people helping us were very friendly and patient since it was our first time going. Great value and if you like fruits nuts or smoothies this is a great place to stop into.

    Lee C.

    Came here for the first time today. The staff were amazing. I asked dozens of questions and they kindly answered each one. This place has a lot of options with much less sugar than other places like playa bowls. The owner was very helpful in identifying add-ons that I would like, based on my preferences. Both bowls were delicious. We will definitely be back here.

    This was one of the best acai bowls I have ever had. Sometimes these bowls can be too sweet and boomchia did not have this issue. Being able to choose different layers of base is a great touch and their signature chia pudding was amazing. Having the option to customize your bowl however you want for no additional costs is also another great feature. The almond butter and apple honey are must haves on your bowl. Definitely come try it out if looking for a great açaí bowl

    The place was clean and had places to sit inside. The staff was friendly and willing to explain the menu to us. Everything looked fresh, the fruit was bright and crisp. There are three sizes to choose from. The blue chia pudding has spirulina in it, we were hesitant to try it but the staff told us it didn't have a distinct flavor, so we went for it. They were right! We had the mango base, blue spirulina topped with bananas, toasted coconut and apple honey. We also tried the coconut chia pudding with mango and blue coconut base, bananas and pineapple pieces with toasted coconut and agave. We would go back again/ we liked it better than playa bowls.

    Carmellina B.

    Boomchia is such a unique take on your classic smoothie bowls! Having it be completely customizable from the base to toppings with NO extra fees is a great addition to the experience. I appreciate the variety of vegan and organic options they had to pick from. The Boomchia Pudding in my personal opinion stands out for the cool combo of chia pudding and blue spirulina. Overall you are able to taste how fresh and flavorful the fruit is in each bite and I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place!

The service was great from the door to the plate. The hostess greeted us with a giant smile and we were sat down immediately without reservation. Which is a plus on a Saturday night.

I have to admit the food is not very photogenic, but it did taste good. I feel like we got to try a little of everything by getting the sampler options. I would highly recommend taking that option when trying for the first time. I also ordered the mint tea, which was a great choice because it was so warm and comforting, especially with the cold rainy day we visited. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who's never tried Ethiopian food before.

    REVIEW UPDATE - TAKEOUT ONLY: Ani Ramen House is a fantastic…read moreramen spot in Montclair. It's always a fun time and you're pretty much guaranteed a great meal at Ani Ramen. My husband and I really wanted some restorative, Japanese comfort food. However, we were unable to go there in person because he was sick, so I ordered delivery from them for the first time (via Uber Eats). The food held up well in transit and was just as good as if we were dining in. I went with a Karaage Rice Bowl with a Ajitama (6 minute egg) as an added extra. My husband went with a Vegan Ramen bowl. While we were supposed to share the Crispy Tofu Buns, my husband couldn't stop after one. Hey, I can't really blame him though, they are delicious. I can't say I would not have done the same thing had I gotten to them first ;)

Walked in and I loved the place already. Very chill and relaxing ambiance. Staff was very friendly and quite a lot of seating. Went on a Sunday afternoon and there were plenty of seats. I don't live very close so I thought I'd order a few things on the menu to try a variety. Was glad I did. Started with the cucumber salad. Light. Refreshing and even has a little kick. I couldn't stop eating it! Ordered the braised pork belly Bao. Comes in orders of 2. Sooooooo flavorful and so worth it! Ordered the Short Rib Ramen and their Special Spicy Tonkotsu ramen. So much flavor in the broths. Very filling and the numerous flavors from the fresh onions, to the beautifully cooked pork belly and short rib, to the perfect soft boiled eggs. A+! Will most definitely be on my mind to stop by every time I'm in the area!

The pan seared calamari was naked which is more healthy than fried! The miso aioli made the big difference with the squid! It was different and delicious. The squid was tender and not chewy! For dinner I ordered the beef shish kebab. It came with two kebab. The beef tasted delicious with the Turkish style marinade. I think it would have been more worth if they added another kebab stick. The pistachio rice was good. It was a different taste with nice almonds slices. The only negative were the kebabs and rice were cold like the onion salad. And I loved the onion salad. We also ordered the salmon artichoke. The pan seared salmon was over cooked. They should have seared it in a shorter time. And it lacked seasoning believe it or not! The artichoke Brussels were a little on the burnt side. The spicy tomato sauce tasted more like ketchup. We will not be ordering this in the future. We also ordered a side of fries and Tahini brussels. The fries weee very tasty and I savored every piece. The Brussels were tasty as well. For dessert, we ordered rice pudding and baklavas. Both weee very good.

    Groovy Southern food meets refined semi-upscale downtown. What do we get?…read moreBreaded okra. Kiss my grits, but we aren't always talking BBQ when we're in the South. I've had me some soul food in Mississippi and 'Bama, though at a fraction of the price you get up North. Look, it's a Montclair thing. Pluses: Black owned restaurant serving cultural staples, plus foods for people who don't want Southern. Ambiance featured soul music, and at one point was playing Shaft! I can dig it. You're not left wanting for food quantity or quality. Plenty of shrimp in the grits, for example. Server was very pleasant to talk to with a little Southern twang to her voice. Why not five stars: Flavor needs deepening. For example, in the South I'm used to seeing okra chopped and breaded before being fried. Maybe more oily that way, more carbs... but more flavor as a result. I had the pulled chicken mac, which was a bit smaller of a dish overall (a bit intentional on my part) - and while the cheese flavors run deep, the meat did not. Shrimp and grits, I took a quick sample of my friend's grits and... I bet you can guess my finding there. Still, a very nice change from the usual Northern selection of foods. I would not hesitate to say Sweet T's is authentic and a nice visit if you're in town. You'll be paying a pretty penny wherever you eat, so you can tag this one on your list.

We mentioned it was our first time, the quality of explanation of the menu lacked. We didn't really understand or enjoy what we ate. Think it's important to mention we are both black women from the American South. Maybe we ordered wrong (which I don't believe in but .... I'll digress) Maybe it was a bad day Maybe I'll try again!!
