Acai Bowls near Union City, NJ

“Nice for a good espressoIts variety of products are a real temptation...I only ask that you put the prices on the menu..The fact that only you know how much each product you sell is worth leaves me at a disadvantage of not knowing if you are really giving me the right price.“

“Located close to the Weehawken reservoir in Union City on the Palisade Ave, this outlet is a bit away from the hustle and bustle of the busy union city area close to the Jersey City! The atmosphere is cool with the music setting up vibe for a pleasant dining experience! The servers are friendly too with a warm smile but didn't seem to offer a particular opinion about the recommendations! I went for a goldie mango bowl which had mango at the bottom, topped with granola, bananas, strawberry and Nutella! The mango paste did seem a bit sweet as in terms of extra added sugar which shouldn't be there as they market themselves as a healthy restaurant. The ingredients were definitely fresh and the cost though seemed to be a bit on the higher side given the location! Overall a good experience for me but not sure about returning soon as there could be better options offering the same thing in my neighborhood of Jersey city!“

“What a great experience we had at this place, fantastic authentic brazilian food, very tasty and good portions. Special kudos for Dino, amazing customer experience, I wish all the restaurants in NYC could learn how to treat people like he did with us. Great job and place!“

“The açaí bowls remind me of how açaí should taste and how it used to taste before it became overly commercialized. The staff is always friendly. The space is very clean. The paninis are so good! When I work in Manhattan, I miss my Astoria location. I'm glad they moved in.“

“I work 12 hour shifts near here and I’m always soooo tired halfway through. I come here for a quick pick me up. The lady behind the counter is the absolute sweetest, drinks aside- she always lightens my mood. The açaí bowls are to die for- not mid. I’ve tried so many spots in Astoria and Vela is consistently yummy. Today. I went in for a milk tea and they ran out of boba. She went an extra mile to charge me for a medium despite me ordering a large! Soooo sweet. ??“

“The food here was AMAZING! And the atmosphere is great. Overall a wonderful place for a bite to eat! We had the Hawaiian torta and the birria burrito and both were absolutely amazing and super filling!!! Plus they had a bunch of Mexican snacks/drinks and it looks like they also have Mexican ice cream. I’m definitely coming back !“

“It is an incredible, cozy place, full of food and flavors that will delight your palate. It is incredible the amount of natural juices that contribute to good health. The service was incredible, the prices affordable and the atmosphere is unique. I loved the mural.“

“I decided to check this place out before work. I got the strawberry banana in a large. It was smooth and delicious. The cashier was sweet and friendly also. I will definitely be back. It is pretty cool you get points for joining on Cash app“

“This is THE smoothie place to go - hands down!I’ve been to at least 10 smoothie places in NYC (primarily Manhattan) and never been more satisfied with the drink or service than here. Honestly no other smoothie places can compare. I can order my drink within the moment I step inside (the workers are highly attentive to customers) and wait less than 5 minutes until my smoothie’s been made.Very smooth, no chunks, absolutely addictively delicious. My top choice is always the Lychee Valentine, followed by Avomazing or Smooth Avocado, but you really cannot go wrong with any of their choices.“

“This is an excellent smoothie and acai bowl place, with a very fitting name! All of the fruit was fresh and smoothies are made to order. I was able to customize a smoothie with almond milk, spinach, banana, Nutella, blueberries, and avocado. It was actually surprisingly good and hit just the spot. So glad to have found this healthy juice/smoothie place in Jersey City!“

“This coffee shop is a gem. It’s neat, modern, clean, and the atmosphere is super soothing. There are words of affirmation on their mugs, which was a nice surprise.I had a latte with oat milk and it was refreshing. Seems to be a good place to order some coffee, read a book or get some work done. I didn’t get to check if there was WiFi or not, but this is a place I’d be willing to use my hotspot for.The staff were very warm and welcoming — I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the neighborhood to try a pastry or two! Thank you.“

“My two nieces and I popped in this morning on our way to the Natural History Museum. I’ll admit I was hesitant but thankfully I listened to my nieces! I had the avocado and eggs in a crepe, which was the best gluten-free sandwich I have ever had. Did not miss the bread at all. My 14 year old chose the Nutella crepe with banana and the 9 ounce Açaí bowl. Oldest selected one of the big bowls … it was a work of art. Highly recommend and we will be back on our next trip. All the best on your growth plans!“

“I bumped into this shop shortly after they opened not too long ago. I was extremely pleased with my experience. Excellent juicy lamb and chicken gyro sandwiches, salads, and rice platter! All halal, too.They also serve other dishes. Their menu is not extensive, but I prefer this, since everything is made freshly and their turnover is really fast. The salads are very fresh, everything is juicy and their portions are very generous. The gyro sandwiches and platters include a can of soda, so everything is in my opinion very competitively priced.The people in the store are very kind and attentive, and I have become a frequent visitor who is greeted with a smile. When showing the place to a visiting family, who praised the platter the “best gyro” they ever had, the owner gave one of the kids an extra platter to enjoy later. I think this speaks for itself.Kid-friendliness: High chairs, very casual, very kid friendly operators.“

“Cute and fun brunch spot in the west village.. some cool, kind of on the healthier side options. They dont take reservations so had to wait 20mins on a Saturday morning which was fine. Service was good, food was nice, nothing show-stopping. But would defo go again and will try the other locations.“

“If you are looking for place with good vibe and great food, check this one out! Poke bowl & acaii bowl both are fresh, very fulfilling, taste ????? lots of options and worth every pennyService was very quick yet everything is always put beautifully on my plate. I’ve tried dine in, take out, delivery, everytime piki poke always hit it!I’ve seen family with kids, fdny, gym people and senior here. No doubt about their freshness and qualityStaffs are very friendly and very attentive.This place is probably the most underrated in Astoria. Definitely a hidden gem“

“Perfect start to the day! We stayed here 4 or 5 times during our week in NY for breakfast. We tested porridge, acai bowls and smoothies. The "Hell's Kitchen Sink" tastes awesome (with peanut butter and cocoa nips.) The smoothies Boo Berry, Gymbuddy and Energy Boost are each made with almond or coconut milk and protein powder .We loved everything! The service is very friendly and There are only a few seats, so we were there early (about 8 / 9h) and had no problems getting a small table.Now we are back home and miss the delicious bowls!“

“I love this little hole in the wall juice bar! The service was quick and super nice. My antioxidant smoothie was super refreshing and well made! Will be going there again for sure :)Kid-friendliness: Cute colored straws! Yummy for kids to drink and get their veggies in! Affordable!“

“One sip of the passion fruit smoothie and I felt like I was on a tropical island! Packed with mango and passion fruit and kale and spinach, it's hearty yet sweet and has all the flavors of Hawaii. Love it and the guy at the register was so sweet and even gave me a sample. Can't wait to come back. 5 stars!!!!“

“I loved the vibe of the place and the staff were super friendly! Went there with a friend for lunch and although I’ve been to many playa bowl locations, I really liked the decoration and seating in this one. The staff made our bowls quickly and the person working the register was very patient with us as we decided what bowl we were going to get. Always recommend going here for a sweet treat with fresh fruits!“

“The Green LIC is a top notch health and wellness establishment. The owners demonstrate a clear understanding of their community, and the importance of wellness, Whole Foods, clean ingredients, and customer service. It is the juice bar I shop at exclusively in the neighborhood. I am proud to continue shopping with them and witness their growth. All the best to the team at The Green LIC!“

“The staff here is extremely helpful and kind. I had an Oakberry coupon that wasn’t applicable to this location but they still chose to honor it for me as a courtesy in order to save me the walk to another location. Much appreciated and the smoothie was delicious too!“

“Absolutely Love this spot. It’s my fave go to whenever I’m in town visiting my Dad & younger Brother.It’s always so fresh and clean, they offer amending customer service.It’s such a plus that they have some pre-made wellness shots, and they carry Detox Bitters &other supplements like Irish moss, hibiscus, raw black seed & more.They also carry a variety of skincare goodies. The yummy health food options are endless!Did I forget mention great customer service? ?“

“Great service- fast- big open space inside with plenty of tables and a tv. The juice was delicious- ordered the Rebecca Romain and it had a great kick! The sea moss shot was also good. I've never had one before so I was nervous but it tasted just fine. I felt very healthy“

“The food was very pleasing and had a really nice base. The base was tangy, sweet, sour and savory. The toppings were filling up the top and very nicely placed. Also they're mini size was perfect and small but filling. The service was very well and the workers did not take that long. I would say we waiting less than a minute for the acai bowl to be ready! Also, I had really enjoyed the music playlist, and had a nice interaction about music with the worker. The atmosphere was very nice, they're were nice, bright colors, a comfy couch and clear menus. In addition, they were very considerate and added a charging station, even though i did not use it, it seemed very nice. Love this place and I ordered the Purple Rain. My first time and this place made a really nice impression on me.“

“MELINDA!!!! She’s amazing! I was craving oatmeal this morning but also felt extremely bloated. I happen to stumble upon Pure Green and when I came in I was instantly welcomed by Melinda. I told her I as extremely bloated and asked her for juice options. She gave me plenty! Then I told her I was craving oatmeal and she made me this super yummy variation of the chia one. Super duper delish! Not to mention, Melinda was sooooo nice! Her personality truly made me feel welcomed and I instantly connected with her spark. I will definitely be returning ?“

“As someone stuck at home battling COVID and its symptoms, a smoothie from Playa Bowls was a bright spot in my otherwise lousy day. Full of flavor, Playa Bowls has a nice assortment of smoothies and açaí bowls that can serve as both a sweet treat or a nutritious meal. DoorDash allowed me to order from home and get my smoothie in less than 20 minutes, which is a huge win. I'll definitely be back (hopefully in person)!“

“The smoothies and acai bowls are great. You can be creative with the combinations to create your own healthy meal or drink, or order straight from the posted menu. Ask for Rashid; he's excellent at making each smoothie and bowl and knows the usual customer's orders by heart. Great spot.“

“Craving something fresh and tasty? Check out juicy cube! They whip up awesome, made-to-order juices, acai bowls, and smoothies using top-notch ingredients. We gave their green and acai bowls a shot - stacked with toppings and bursting with freshness! The staff? Super friendly. Highly recommend swinging by for a healthy and delicious treat!“

“Very healthy and fresh selections. I tried their orange juice, iced coffee, and egg and cheese on a bagel. Very satisfying. Also had a blueberry muffin with coffee another time, which was quite good. Looking forward to trying a smoothie. Great vegan, vegetarian, and keto options. Friendly, good service.“

“Everything about this place is ?!I happened to speak with the owner, who let me know that this restaurant sources an acai base that utilizes cane sugar, as well as lower sugar content in their pitaya.That's not the only option for a base! They have pumpkin, matcha, coconut, etc, I've tried them all, and all delicious.Also, if you are here early enough, they make overnight oats!“

“Great food for the price. Keeps you in line because the sauces are good, and the produce is fresh. When you can easily go astray with delivery/pick up, you have the option to eat healthy with a plethora of veggie options and protein options. Got a smoothie as well, fiancé couldn't stop raving about it!“

“Staff needs to stay off their phone or at least be discreet I'm sure they're supervisors tell them all the time. It's a little rude in customer service which I am in ,too have to be the customer and stand there for 30 seconds watching someone doing a text... I don't really care in the end because I just want my food and I'll yell over and say "hello!" but I shouldn't have to do that..Other than that everything is fresh and all ingredients are good never had a bad meal from this playa bowls ❤️“

“One of the freshest poke bowls you'll ever eat. The salmon and tuna are always yummy, especially with the many different sauces they offer. I always do take out because there's very little room to sit. Only thing I wish would improve is if they could cut the salmon pieces a little smaller (the other place I go to does this). But overall, the avocado and all the other ingredients are always super fresh, which you can't say about all poke places.“

“Came here for their Madison Square drink which sounds amazing, only to realize they rarely make anything fresh and made-to-order. They bottle the drinks in the front, and if they run out, you're out of luck - which is what happened with the Madison Square. Not a fan of not having a juice freshly made. Got the new green smoothie which was good, but a bit too heavy on the lemon. If I'm back in the area, would come back for that Madison Square.“

“This is my SPOT! I come here after workouts and love the classic açaí bowl. The tropical pitaya and peanut butter protein bowls are also very good. I've never eaten inside, but it's decent decor (just get to-go). The girls making the bowls are pretty quick and always offer a smile. This is the only place I get my açaís in Jersey!“

“Really yummy and amazing prices!! This is a neighborhood gem for sure. Doesnt look like much on the outside but dont be fooled bc they have delicious smoothies. Got the green apple delight and the mango. Both were very good. I’ll be back!“

“I've been coming to this Upper West Side Juice Generation for over 6 years. I love their Acai bowls and smoothies. Also their staff, especially Janeth, Miri, and Ivan, are highly efficient, professional and always very friendly! I would not go anywhere else!“

“Mucho Mango bowl is fantastic. Tried it for the first time and kept me coming back for more. I also really liked the blueberry granola they add into the bowl. Decor is cool feels like a tropical vibe. Fast friendly service had me in & out. Looking forward to trying their other bowls & smoothies.“

“Been coming to this neighborhood spot since they opened right by my home. I love the variety of flavor combos here, and everything I've tried so far (smoothies, acai bowls) have been delicious! I think it's great value for the smoothie and it's refreshing to have this as an option here in Chelsea (plus I would rather support a small business vs the big smoothie franchises). I will be back!“

“I met a work colleague here the other day as we were looking for someplace to set up for the afternoon prior to an evening event. I ordered espresso and it was excellent. I then ordered a chicken sandwich with grilled peppers and onions, it was very very good. The Cafe is constantly busy and there are teenagers everywhere because I'm guessing there is a high school near by. The bathroom was impeccably clean!“

“Agavi makes organic juice drinks to your specifications. They set up a Popup Juice Bar in my community. There was a list of ingredients to choose from. I had spinach, carrot, celery and ginger which was refreshing after my workout. The employee was quick and efficient working alone. He even advised me about my choice of ingredients due to my blood sugar. He just added a small amount of carrots since they are sweet. My friend had the same ingredients and added the apple for sweetness. I really enjoyed the experience. I'm not very familiar with juicing. I'd definitely visit this location when I'm nearby. It's a great way to get my veggies for the day.“

“Super cute nook in a really convenient location! I wish they had a slightly bigger space for eating in. The service was not bad, but definitely not something I would rave about. Loved the oatmeal and the option to add protein. Fresh and tasty!“

“Really decent smoothie bowl shop! I was surprised to see a smooth bowl location that could customize so easily. A lot of the places I have visited before do not allow much customization because of pre-made bowls and they never customize without charging extra. I really enjoyed that about this place! The staff here were really kind and the owner was really sweet! It was a nice quaint location with a cool ambience. It had a lot of fresh colors and accents and it gave a nice vibe. The location was perfect next to the Newport station and its close to the Hudson which Made eating with a view great! I would highly recommend the acai base. I was the biggest fan of the blue narwhal but I understand how it could be a fan favorite for those who love coconut! Overall, I'd go again and really recommend it!Vegetarian options: All bowls were vegetarian. They were great about keeping common allergens separate.“

“Very good option for desserts and some other baked goods. The prices are high for the quantity and ingredients.... But people are used to paying for a treat like what is sold here. Monday is beautiful, fresh, clean and welcoming. The attention is good! They should just review the prices and lower them a little and maybe then they will have many more customers and earn more from volume sales than from one-to-one sales.“

“In my recent experience with the "Mocha Muscle" beverage, which boasted a blend of banana, vanilla protein, cold-brewed coffee, almond milk, I found it to be an overall pleasurable drink. While the concoction was notably good, my preference leans towards a more pronounced coffee taste. I sensed a slight imbalance, with the banana overpowering the coffee undertones. Despite this observation, the drink held its own, showcasing a commendable fusion of flavors, particularly the harmonious combination of vanilla proteinThe Koa Bowl, a delightful creation comprising granola, cashews, flax seeds, coconut flakes, and cocoa nibs, left a lasting impression with its delectable medley of textures and tastes. The synergy of the crunchy granola, creamy cashews, and the subtle crunch of flax seeds, enhanced by the sweetness of coconut flakes and the richness of cocoa nibs, created a memorable and flavorful bowl. Each component contributed to a well-balanced and satisfying culinary experience.Moving on to the "Kale Smoothie," featuring organic kale, banana, pineapple, honey, coconut milk, and apple juice, this drink managed to surpass my expectations despite my initial hesitation towards kale and spinach in beverages. The result was a surprisingly tasty concoction that effectively masked the assertive flavors of kale and spinach, providing a sweet and refreshing taste. The inclusion of banana, pineapple, honey, and coconut milk contributed to the overall palatability of the smoothie, making it a noteworthy choice even for those less inclined towards greens in their drinks.Lastly, the "Green Goddess" lived up to its name by fulfilling its intended purpose of cleansing. This drink, with its combination of cleansing ingredients, left me with a sense of rejuvenation and ensured a thorough "cleaning out."In conclusion, despite a minor preference for a stronger coffee note in the Mocha Muscle drink, the overall experience with these offerings was highly positive. The Koa Bowl and Kale Smoothie stood out for their exceptional flavors and creative ingredient combinations, while the Green Goddess left a lasting impression with its detoxifying effects.“

“Got the power bowl which has protein powder mixed in with the acai. I also got honey which was an extra $1.50 (crazy for a literal drizzle of honey). Ended up being kind of expensive, $17 for an acai bowl is not ideal. But it was good acai. Nice and smooth, good flavor. Liked how there was granola on the bottom layer as well as the top.“

“My favorite place to go. I go to a few times a week. On "the circle" Bartel Pritchard Square. I like the paninis salads soups and health drinks. The atmosphere is nice the workers very friendly. Over greens is also very sanitary. Healthy eats.“

“Jefferson nos atendeu como um verdadeiro marketeiro . Sabe vender ofereceu os produtos com explicação de tudo com detalhes . Parabéns por ter um funcionário super dedicado . Quantos os produtos sempre deliciosos com sabor de Brasil. Mais o açaí foi o melhor que já comi aqui na América . Parabéns . Nota 1000 .“

“Great experience making a pitstop for a refreshing snack in the midtown! The QR code on the review page doesn’t work properly, but I’m more than happy to jump on Google map and leave it a good review. The location is spacious with 6 proper seats, and enormous waiting area. Also amazing for ppl “
