“I’ll be honest, I didn’t go in with high expectations because I’ve read some reviews before that were low and called the place mediocre and all I have to say is: they are wrong, this place is actually really good.The smoothies all taste amazing, the place is clean, there’s a bunch of food options, the staff is nice and overall the place looks beautiful.The fruit in our bowls were fresh as can be, the granola was good and they were big.I highly recommend the Sweet Palm Green Bowl.I will say though, the bowls are expensive. Expect to pay around 13-14 dollars per person.In total this order was 30 dollars (two bowls) which isn’t bad because it’s a voluntary choice, the quality is nice, the place is nice and so on.Give this place a try. I don’t regret trying it. It was really good.Kid-friendliness: So this place is right next to a gym and a high school so I truly expected there to be more young adults but there were actually many middle schoolers there with their parents ordering bowls. The staff was really kind to them and the whole vibe did not discourage younger audiences so I would call this a kid friendly place which is awesome.Parking: There’s so much parking spots because it’s in a plaza area“
“First time here and I was bit confused on how it works but Izikiel was patient enough and explained it to me and he was very friendly. As for taste had a chocolate ice cream swirl( which was tasty) and they had a lot of options for toppings as well. Ice creams and frozen yogurts are self service and you can choose on your own flavor and toppings.Overall I was happy with the service and the taste.“
“Cynthia(owner) is attentive to details and her customers. Food is great. I have not heard a single negative comment. Everyone walks out with a smile. A real treat for a meal/meal replacement, a snack or a sweet treat. Don’t miss out on this gem. My personal favorite is the Peanut Butter Chocolate Colin. Hard to “
“#50 of 100A complete surprise to find this little gem in the heart of Metuchen. This female owned local smoothie and acai shop was a perfect find for us.We tried the wellness shot " healer" with turmeric, lemon and ginger that was served fast in a little plastic container for $4.Wait times were short even though had other customers waiting.The owner' s mom rang us up, gave us a little history of their start and told us of the history of being 100% vegan for you health conscious folks out there.Absolutely would come back for their protein smoothies that would be great after a run or workout. Plenty of spaces to sit inside or outside when warmer .Return : definitely“
“This place gives Tropical vibes, nice decor and music! I love the outdoor seating with palm trees. Awesome staff very friendly and greeted me right away! The Body Repair was delicious! A long with the "H Toazt" hummus, cabbage,carrots,olives and Asiago cheese! I highly recommend this place! I give this place 5 stars!!“
“The ABSOLUTE BEST Acai bowls in the world!Here's my go to: Mango, Pinapple, Kiwi, Hazelnut butter, and for the bases; Acai (the best made blend ever) and banana whip base. OMG, it's that good. So good for you too.The only thing sweeter than the bowls is the owner Michelen who has a heart of gold, down to earth, and spreads the magic to all of her staff and customers.“
“I came across this sushi restaurant and it has been my go-to recommendation for family and friends. The service here is friendly and helpful deciding what is good to order. The salmon skin salad and carpaccio-tuna/salmon is a must try. Often times you try new sushi spots they can be skeptical but food quality and presentation is on point.“
“This was my first time coming to faaji with a couple of friend’s. We had a very pleasant experience starting from their valet service to the vibe we had inside. The servers was great & loved the music. I recommend this place to anyone who want to have a great time out.“
“My favorite of the açaí-focused restaurants. The workers are always friendly and professional. Their menu is highly customizable and offers many options. Their smoothies are also fantastic. The app allows you to collect points towards a free meal, when other similar places do not even offer that.“
“Do you ever taste something and wonder how you ever lived without it? That's exactly how I feel about Playa Bowl it's so delectable. I don't like chocolate so finding a snack to satisfy my tastebuds isn't easy but Playa has so many options and is so amazing in flavor. The menu is huge and you can easily order the items on the menu as is or feel free to remove items on any bowl and just as substitute with many other items. It's a really popular spot so you might want to order online and don't fret if your bowl is ready before you arrive the staff will always place it inside the mini refrigerator. The staff handles the droves of customers with ease and work well together juggling online orders and in person patrons. The store has a very nautical feel to it you have the feeling of being at a dock or the beach. They also sell t-shirts, sweatshirts, tanks, tumblers for beverages, baseball caps, and joggers just to name a few all with the company logo. If you don't want a bowl feel free to order a fruit blended drink.....the best treat to indulge in can be found at Playa Bowl.“
“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 .“
“Fresh fruit's & Sweet smiles what’s not to love about this place. They alway’s greet you with a warm welcome and take the time needed to perfect your drink! Huge shoutout to Madison & Lexi! Two kind, sweet, hardworking women who make your day a bit sweeter before you’ve even tasted your smoothie.. 10/10“
“Ono Bowls did an amazing job this past weekend at the LIV Tournament in Bedminster, NJ. Their smoothie/acai bowls were probably the best I've ever had! They were friendly, efficient & a pleasure to work with... definitely bringing them back for more events!“
“This is a cute little place. The ladies working were super nice & helpful with reviewing the specials. It seems like they have really good regulars that came in while I was there; they were identified by first name basis. I love that. Pro-Tip: if you want to know the food specials for the day, check out their story on IG. I ordered the chicken congee, loh mai gai/sticky rice in lotus leaf, chicken laksa, & the clay pot meat with rice. My favorite was the clay pot & the crunchy pieces of rice in it. Yums. It did take 20 mins to cook bc it's a "made to order" meal. The laksa was packed with flavor & gave my mother's laksa a run for her money. I lasted ordered a matcha tea & a Thai milk tea. I didn't care for the drinks but I have a feeling the other drinks there are better like the create your owns. Cons: hard to find parking at a busy time. They are closed Sun, Mon, Tues. Prices aren't listed on website, IG, or in the store so I have attached a receipt. Overall, I would definitely be coming back. Maybe for their fruit bowls & a different drink“
“I’ve loved this place for their bowls for years! Better then anywhere else who makes them. Although they do skimp on the fruit there quality and taste is much better then anywhere else. Just add your own fruit if you want a lot of fruit. They put enough for me. I am always happy !“
“Came to a warm welcome from both workers! I’ve never had a fruit bowl from here an he was very helpful with explaining everything an also offered samples which really helped me make my decision the açaí bowl was so delicious the acia was a smooth creamy sorbet like goodness the granola was premium fruit was fresh 10 out of 10 i totally recommend“
“I recently completed the whole food cleanse and can't say enough good things about how delicious the food is at Fresh Press Juice Company. I've had their juices before and have my favorites (The Healer, Feelin' The Beat, Cold Buster) but I'm really happy to have another option in town to turn to for food. Breakfast options - the overnight oats, granola. tofu scramble, and snack pack of fruit and almond butter were all delicious and filling. For lunch and dinner options, the bean burger is not to be missed as well as all of their soups. The rainbow wraps have the perfect amount of hummus and the kale caesar salad is so good. As much as I love their juice, they offer so much more than just juice! Even my kids love their banana whips. We are so lucky to have them in town! And the staff are always very friendly and helpful.“
“I came in recently on an hot day and ordered the orange power! (definitely recommend, one of my absolute favorites). The employee Callie waited on me and she was absolutely amazing! She was quick, efficient and very kind. 10/10 customer service at this playa bowls!!“
“i come here every once in a while and am always very pleased with the quick & friendly service as well as the delicious smoothies! today i had even forgotten to ask for almond milk instead of regular milk in my smoothie and the worker was quick to offer to remake it for me. amazing smoothie king let me be ur smoothie queen“
“I LOVE EVERYONE THAT WORKS THERE. LITERALLY. Not to mention I had to go back and edit my comment after I read all the other comments and had to just state, every time I go into that place I have nothing but positive vibes from anyone and everyone behind that counter. I also happen know most of them on a first name basis just being a consistent customer and being how nice and friendly they all are!! BOTH LOCATIONS!! They literally make my day better just by them making a bomb a** smoothie/bowl. Also had to mention every time I have went in they are always busy working never seen anyone doing a tiktok?? Ive only ever seen them either with a line of customers, cleaning or taking out trash..? AND !! The fruit is ALWAYS deeeeelicious, fresh and RIPE ?? #nofilter … I thank God for PLAYABOWLS? Wish I had more pictures!! And the inside of both places have stunning artwork / atmosphere !!?“
“Amazing service from the Playa Bowls staff, they were very respectful and kind, surprisingly quick even though they were quite busy. The girl with the curly hair and the slick back ponytail she was very kind. Would recommend to family and friends. The food was very refreshing, a lot of Nutella was added love that! Keep up the good work“
“I absolutely love playa bowls. I just love fruit, so this is my go-to place. Regardless of whether you order a bowl, smoothie, or juice - it always is presented great and tastes amazing. The service is always friendly and welcoming. I give the atmosphere 3/5 stars only because they seem to have different staffing every time I’m there - and sometimes (depending on who’s working) they can be rowdy and obnoxiously loud - but recently it’s been a lot better. I know it’s just teenagers being teenagers, so as long as they’re doing their job properly (which they do) it’s not a deal breaker for me. The place is always clean and the fruit is always fresh, that’s all that matters to me.“

“My favorite location is Princeton! The team collaborates effectively on every bowl. Every ingredient is fresh. Stop in & treat yourself while shopping along Nassau St.Vegetarian options: Veggie-friendly. There should be more vegan options on the menu.“
