Cute little lunch spot. Service was nice and love all the menu options. I built my own bowl and it's yummy. The outdoor seating is really nice also. read more

Proven Poke - a bowl of salad and a drink - Hawaiian Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

way overpriced. The serving is small for what you are being charged. I will wait to get Poke in L.A. Montclair is suppose to be hip, modern and progressive so there needs to be more of these places around so the price can come down. Won't be back. . read more

Delicious! I got the "Reel Love" burrito and all of the ingredients were fresh and tasty. Quick and friendly service too! I'd get the sauce on the side next time (was a bit too saturated for my liking), but will definitely be returning in the future. read more

Food excellent very accomodating service Very clean and spacious eating area very good read more

Absolutely the WORST Spam musubi I ever had the misfortune to taste. The rice was watery and fell apart, the spam in the "fried spam musubi" I ordered was oven baked rather than pan fried in one of those toasting ovens such as they have in the Subway sandwich chain, resulting in spam that was lightly and unevenly toasted on one side and raw on the other. The taste of the nori was a lot stronger and more iodine-y that what I am used to and overpowered all the other flavors. read more

It's okay, I think there are so many other places to eat in Montclair that have better quality food. Staff was not very friendly or interested in me. Ordered the Kickflip poke bowl. Unsure about the freshness of the chicken, but the rest was decent. It came in a plastic bowl with top and a matching plastic fork. Not the most enviromental conscious. Place was clean, trendy. Good for Instagram. read more

Lots of options to make your own bowl. Place is always clean & ordering is simple either online or using a touch screen at the location. Service has always been friendly. read more

This place makes one of the best poke bowls I've ever had. Really great variety, clean and cool environment, and amazing quality ingredients. Only thing is about the toppings/mix ins--there's a limit to 4 and after that you're charged extra. Didn't realize initially and was annoyed with the upcharges for stuff that's free other places. read more

Really modern and cool atmosphere. 100% must try in Montclair. Never had poke before? This is the place to go and try it out. I will be back for sure read more

Proven Poke - Build Your Poke Bowl large (3 Scoops of Protein) - Hawaiian Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

Aloha! I ventured out to Proven Poke after the rainstorm had abated last evening, and on my second visit there all that was proven is that this place is mediocre at best. The shrimp tots that were advertised as a special were no more special than Tater Tots. The Number Nine Poke Bowl was more like a Number 5 on a scale of 1-10. Three stars are quite generous for this joint, but it's a beautiful morning. From now on I'll be getting my poke from places that are way more okey-dokey. read more

This place is just consistently good. The selection of pre-designed bowls are very well crafted and each is unique and delicious. They also let you design your own mix, down to the ingredient, in case you are in the mood for something different. Very glad to have this place in town. read more

Ordered pick up from this place last week. Got there early so I waited inside and watched them make the orders. There were two guys working. Both of them without masks. The guy making the order had no gloves on and just used his hands to roll the burritos and pick up the ingredients with his hands directly. And no, he did not wash his hands in between the orders. He was constantly touching his shirt while making the orders. That was very disappointing. read more

This restaurant makes amazing Hawaiian food and the servers are very friendly! I highly recommend the Kani fries! read more

Proven Poke - Kani fries - Hawaiian Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

Freshest poke bowls around! I have only ordered delivery from Proven poke before, but it has always come super fast and amazingly fresh quality ingredients. I love creating my own bowl and live the variety of options without having to worry much about extra fees for toppings (some premium additions are extra cost, but the menu of free options is also extensive). My favorite order is a create your own with hot steak and spicy tuna as my proteins. I love that the portion size is great and you feel like you're getting your money's worth and are not hungry after eating. It's the perfect size and my go-to for a nice balanced meal that doesn't make me feel bad after eating it. Always look forward to my next order at proven! read more

It's the only poke place in town. For that reason alone they have my business, but I wish this place was better. Literally every other poke place I've ever been to blows Proven Poke out of the water. The quality of the ingredients just isn't quite there, and there's something else I can't put my finger on that just makes the poke here taste boring. Maybe it's the sauces? I'm not sure. It'll scratch your poke itch but not much more. read more

If you want uncomfortably spicy mayo and burnt-till-black onion topping, definitely go here. I have never written a poor review about any restaurant, but I felt compelled to do so after my first experience trying this place. The price is unbelievable (in a bad way) for the quality and portions I received. I feel robbed. read more

Yeah I really wanted to love this place. They have a cool aesthetic but my poke bowl was pretty bland. I ordered mine with salmon and ahi tuna. I was so excited to try this place because the reviews and photos make it seem so good... yeah you can't even get extra sauce without paying extra which is fine but like that makes them seem so cheap. Not the worst place, but def not the best. read more

I absolutely love this place! It is my #1 poké spot in the area in terms of quality. The portions are fabulous and the marinated tuna tastes just like the quality of poké I ate in Hawaii. The only thing that stinks is the parking. When I'm driving an extra 20 minutes I really don't want to also be looking for parking on nearby streets/ walking a far distance in the cold to grab my bowl. I still come either way because that's how good it is!!! read more

I ordered for the first time last night. 10 out of 10. Only negative is, by default, the app emails a pick up time of one hour after the order is received. Truly only 15 min to get online order read more

Proven Poke has become a usual spot for us especially for a quick, fresh, yummy, and healthy-ish weeknight dinner. Hubby loves the Heat Wave bowl and I usually build my own with tuna and salmon marinade. Spicy Mayo and wasabi aioli are yum. Recommended! read more

Visiting our son at college automatically means a food outing. We were initially looking for a local sushi restaurant but could not find any that served COVID style outside. Proven Poke was a reasonable alternative. We were told to order our meal via the app. Once ordered we were brought out our food selections. I had the big catch poke bowl and my son had the tropic like it's hot wrap. Both items contained a heaping amount of ingredients that were fresh and flavored perfectly. The presentation of both items was on point. The young man who brought our selections out was pleasant and catered to our needs. A great place to eat and food was terrific. I will be returning. read more

Food was great and fresh! This is our second time here and they have umbrellas for the outside tables which is nice for these hot days during Covid-19. They did forget our add ons to our bowls but we went back in and they gave us what was missing. read more

Love this place! I've been here twice in the past month and can't wait to go back. They have very fresh fish with a bunch of awesome toppings to choose from! This place is very healthy with large portions. The staff is also very friendly. They offered to set up outdoor seating for me when I inquired about it on a sunny day! Definitely bringing my friends here! read more

Proven Poke - This is tuna, salmon, seaweed salad, spicy crab meat over mixed greens with their spicy jalapeño sauce! - Hawaiian Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

Good poke, good portions, interesting flavors and I lost my wallet at the store and they called me to give it back. Probably the best poke place in montclair read more

I ordered delivery here for the first time tonight. The salmon and the spicy tuna in my bowl has a fishy taste aka NOT FRESH! I'm so very disappointed with how fishy it tasted. Never coming back here again. read more

Me and my boyfriend wanted to try something new and saw the previous reviews for this place so we thought why not. I also am a huge poke fan, considering my family is from Hawaii and we go quite often and have tons of it all the time. Don't get me wrong, this place is good. I haven't really had poke on the mainland, but I can tell you it tastes different. The only thing I have to say is that they could work on the presentation of the food a little bit more, especially with the sushiritos. My boyfriend got basically a veggie roll, just as a burrito, and it did not look as expected. All the rice was at the bottom. Other than that, this place is worth the try! read more

I have really enjoyed having a Poke place with such good dishes close by on Church St where I can easily walk to.

My daughter and I tried this place last night. My daughter ordered one of their posted bowls. The employee had no idea what was in the bowl and had to keep looking back at the menu board behind her. Several ingredients were not even available but still she wanted to charge extra for a crab topping. The other employee butted in to suggest maybe adding another sauce! Really?? More sauce?? Just ridiculous. Horrible customer service. The bowl also looked awfully small for what they were charging. Anyway we walked out of the place and left them holding the bowl. read more

Amazing food very refreshing everything was great had a bowl also tried a wrap both amazing

This is the second order we have placed with them and we couldn't be happier. The food quality is excellent and the prices are reasonable. They also get the orders ready quickly, which another plus. read more

Really good! Built my own plant based bowl and especially liked the mushroom and seaweed additions. I was expecting it to be a little bigger so next time I'd order the larger size! I appreciated the allergen labeling of the sauces because it can be hard to tell with those! read more

This place has truly downgraded. Went from having a friendly and efficient staff every time I ate to now having uncommunicative staff that skimps and only wants money, with the corners they cut. Recently they have even changed they way packaging is. Went from bowls to a chipotle style "bowl" and have the audacity to charge $20 for it when they barely even put the sauce you requested. Proven was once an amazing place , when it first came to Montclair but clearly sees its customers as income instead actually being proud of serving you their "fresh food". Save your money and make your own homemade poke! Or go somewhere else because it's a shell of itself. read more

OMG! Thys Poke Bowl hit the ENTIRE SPOT! SOOOOOO GOOD! So amazingly fresh . I had the tuna, salmon and Sushi Rice Bowl. I was ROCKED! Thank you so much! It was perfect. Even the Ginger was perfect . Ill be ordering more from them. Im glad I stumbled upon them on Door Dash . read more

Very clean place and the vibe was nice. The fish was fresh, the mix-ins plentiful, and the price was just right. I'm happy there's a good poke place nearby. Can't wait to get some again. read more

Love the food and the service is fast and friendly. Just wish they used paper or recyclable containers.

This place is a pass for us now. I was extremely turned off that the employee who was handling my poke bowl checked and used his/her phone wearing the plastic gloves and then resumed making my bowl. I will also note that another employee was seen taking the garbage out wearing gloves and then switched to another pair of gloves to assist the next customer... I may be being picky but I would have thought that he/she would need to wash their hands prior to putting new gloves on. It's a standard of care in healthcare and I would think the same goes for handling food. Overall, after trying other poke places, this is no longer a go-to spot for me. read more

An average poke bowl place. Nothing special but it was a decent meal. The fish was not the freshest or of high quality but I guess you can expect that from a joint like this. The amount of fish they gave for the price could've been more. I did however enjoy the amount of toppings you could get. But for a regular bowl to only have 2 mix ins? Skimping a bit. If you're in the area and craving an average bowl, its the place to go as there aren't many poke bowl places around. read more

I have the heat wave. It was phenomenal. With the brown rice. Very tasty. Very filling. I had two scoops this time, next time I think I'll go for three scoops of the main. The people there are super friendly. Very fresh and tasty. Definitely will be returning. read more

They now have the marinated tuna. My favorite and first poke was "eat poke bro" and since then I've been disappointed. But NOW proven has the marinated. They should cut the avocado smaller read more

Overall, not bad poke especially since there are not many competitors in the area, but will say it felt a little pricey than other places I've been too. Aside from that, the workers were really nice and the girl that ring me up, informed me of a student discount (10% off) which was nice. The quality of the fish and veggies I got were also pretty good. Might come back again if I'm craving poke. read more
