Reviews for Poke Bento describe fresh, affordable poke bowls and bento options with consistent quality and quick, friendly service, making it a go to option for lunch or dinner. Portions are generally generous and prices praised, with many noting strong value, occasional promotions, and easy ordering through Uber Eats or Fantuan, while direct orders sometimes include a free drink or appetizer. A few experiences are more mixed, with some bowls heavy on rice and light on toppings, and salmon or salmon flambé options receiving lower marks. The restaurant is often described as a hidden gem in downtown Montreal or near the metro, attracting regulars from surrounding areas for reliable freshness and speedy service.
Honestly one of my favorite places to go & grab some sushi since it's so close to the metro before I have to run to work. While I don't have a picture of the bentos we normally get, my husband & brother love them as well.
The food was amazing when it was first opened. We ordered Chicken Katsu poke bowl & crab poke bowl. The chicken Katsu one has a lot of rice & a lot of salad & have at least 8 pieces of chicken. But while the fried chicken tastes decent, it has a thick crust & very thin layer of chicken…😅 & the poke bowl I assume it is supposed to have a lot of ingredients other than rice, salad & chicken but other than these 3 main ingredients it has very little of everything else… very little carrot & no seaweed, etc. Kind of underwhelming.
I will be the first to admit that I got the chicken poke bowl on a discount for 7$ plus tax but I assume the quality would
be higher.
The crab bowl, Im told it was above average & quite good.
I do not recommend ordering salmon poke bowl / bento here & also do not recommend salmon flambé poke bowl / bento, we had a bad experience with it before, as other customers had written in their review. That's the reason we have not come here for a little while.
In fact, I would say it's their food it's a hit or miss. Sometimes it's very good… sometimes their poke bowl has rice, salad & the ingredient (protein) you ordered & little to none of anything else. In other places, it has carrot, beans, corn, some fruit such as pineapple pieces, etc. Im just being honest.
If you like to try them out, I recommend you either order through uber eats or Fantuan so you get a small discount on your order. Alternatively, you can order through their website & if you do, as you see in my pictures, it appears you get a free drink or a free appetizer if you order directly through them & spend 15$ or above before taxes.
Honestly, I've tried a lot of sushi spots in Montréal, & this place is by far the best I've come across. The sushi is always incredibly fresh, & the prices are very affordable. I even come all the way from Laval because it's rare to find a place like this.
It would be great if more people recognized the value of this spot-it's truly a hidden gem in Montréal.

Love the sushi & poke bowl, they serve the best poke & sushi in a very affordable price compared to other places, have been doordashing from them for 2 months & always got good food
I've been eating at Poke Bento for years now. Their consistency is amazing, always serving great quality at a great price. I even speak to my neighbors around the area & they all come to this place. I would recommend to everyone looking for a good & quick poke bowl, with good service!
