“I popped in here one day looking for a smoothie bowl. They have a couple of smoothie/bowl options, but the bulk of the menu is teas and shakes (which look really good and interesting). There's low/no added sugar options, protein powders, and they seem to be allergen-friendly. The guy working was helpful and friendly. The acai bowl with pb and granola had a smooth tasty base, generous amount of toppings, and I was very happy with it, especially since there aren't too many good options in Cbus to get a smoothie bowl. There's a little bit of sitting room inside if you don't want to order to-go. This place is a hidden gem for sure, and I'd go out of my way for it.“
“A great place to come and get something healthy and lite to eat, happy and upbeat staff show you a great experience !Dietary restrictions: Many options to choose from to stay with in most guidelines.Parking: Plenty of spotsKid-friendliness: Great atmosphere, good vibes and respectful.Wheelchair accessibility: Very easy to get and out of the shop, plenty of room to maneuver inside.“
“Really nice "old school" ice cream shop. Walk-up windows up front with places to sit outside when it is nicer. Quite a bit of seating inside. Ice cream, shakes, floats with a variety of toppings to enjoy. There is also the option of getting sandwiches, hot dogs, and soups if you want something more like a lunch/meal.“
“Customer service as well.as.food.quality at the osu campus store is excellent. This truly is one of a kind in what they serve and everything I've tasted there is delicious. Well.worth the moneyKid-friendliness: Good store to bring kids into“
“How have I missed this gem. My wife and I stopped in for a couple Açaí bowls today and while we were initially concerned about the price $12 per bowl, we were quickly distracted by the fantastic customer service. The young lady’s working the counter were incredibly friendly helpful. Now for the Açaí bowl. The best I have had by a country mile. This was delicious. French fruit ice, cold sorbet, fresh granola and at the recommendation of the employees, peanut butter. This all came together to make an absolutely can’t amazing meal. Would definitely recommend and we will be returning.“
“If you wanna try the most amazing ice cream roll then this is the place to go ! Plenty of options to chose from! Staff is extremely talented , service is great . Would certainly recommend this cute little ice cream shop to anyone who loves ice cream/ milkshakes !“
“Dining in, you order from a QR code on your table and a robot brings all of your orders. There are also staff up front who can assist you if you need anything. When I dine in I also buy some extra drinks for my siblings. One staff member took notice of this and offered me a plastic bag to store drinks which was very thoughtful. Love the atmosphere here and the food and drinks are tasty too.“
“I finally got around to eating here looking for a vegetarian restaurant. It's not that vegetarian but they have a lot of meat dishes and not too much in total vegetarianism at least that I could find. I did order a super salad base with chicken and the chicken was pretty dry but the problem I had with it was the chicken in the bowl was just too much compared to the salad part of it and the other problem was all their sauces are like mayonnaise based I'm not sure that they have mayonnaise in them but I'm trying to say that they are that consistency. I would rather have some liquid salad dressing to cut down on the fats. Except for somewhat dry chicken the food was very good cost me $12 The bowl was a good size I almost couldn't eat it and I do feel like I've got enough food in me to go all day.“

“We went there for the first time on Christmas day. Everything else was closed so we figured why not try something new? It is an AUTHENTIC Somali restaurant. We were the only Americans there. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. They didn't have a menu you when we went, our server just asked what meat we wanted and we couldn't decide so he brought us an assortment. Fish, chicken, and goat. The goat was amazing!! We will probably get all goat next time. We got spaghetti and rice, both were fantastic. I would recommend. It feels like you are stepping out of Columbus and into another country when you enter this establishment.“
“This place is phenomenal! From the customer service to the tips they offer you while trying to focus on healthy options. James is awesome and very friendly. Very knowledgeable about determination and healthy habits for a fitness mindset.My son requested we go back a second time today for a tea and shake! My son said I give this place a thumbs up and a 1,000 out of 10! I had pretty in pink and my son had a birthday cake shake! Absolutely delicious.“
“A popular, corner spot to eat breakfast and brunch in Columbus. They said they have "award winning" breakfast tacos for $16. When you say, "award winning" you obviously have to order it. Now a CA gal knows her tacos. These tacos were good. You can taste the fresh made corn tortillas. Crema, cotija cheese and avocado made it stand out. I liked the chorizo and egg combo as well. It came with an ear of street corn which was good. Make sure to have clean hands because this could get messy. It is delicious. Here's my issue, my standards for tacos are pretty high coming from CA. While the taco was good, a $16 price point for 3 relatively small tacos in a paper vessel seems somewhat expensive, especially sitting outside in a cold patio. Maybe $12-13 and I would have been raving about this place. Surprisingly food is just as expensive in Columbus as it is in CA.“
“The bowls are balanced, delicious, and nutritious. I got the Pura Vida Acai Bowl and my girlfriend had the Electric Mermaid Bowl. The employees were very professional and friendly. Clean and relaxing environment that is good for a date, studying, or just hanging out for a little while. Bowls are a little more on the pricey side, but well worth it for the care and quality that goes into them. Didn’t try the smoothies or juice but I imagine they’re just as good. We highly recommend Playa Bowls“
“So good I had to come two days in a row! I got the Orange and cinnamon oatmeal. It was AMAZING. Great portion and great price point. The staff was super kind and friendly. Super cute little place, definitely a nice place to sit and eat. 11/10 would recommend.“
“This is a very new place. It has a very comfortable vibe and the staff was knowledgeable, nice and courteous. There are many options of shakes and teas.I ordered the Beach Bum (cherry, pineapple, coconut) tea and my husband ordered the Strawberry Lemon Cheesecake shake. Both were delicious! The tea was refreshing and flavorful though I'd like it to be more "beachy" than cherry but, overall it was a great price and I'd totally order again!My super picky husband enjoyed the shake. He actually said that we are leaving beloved Starbucks for this flavorful, nutritious alternative! I enjoy that we are enjoying things that aren't full of sugar and give us energy. Definitely a returner.“
“I had the pleasure of stumbling into GVN one day on my walk around German Village and I was excited to see that they offered Acai Bowls. YUMMMMM. It is hard to find a good, fresh acai bowl in Columbus that doesn't have all the additives. Well GVN has a perfect, fresh Acai Bowl with upwards of 20 options for toppings. Service is also amazing. Now, if only they had Nutella! ;)Vegetarian options: They do not service meat.“
“Been trying to get to this place since it opened up for about a year I called early around 11 she had but I wanted. I got there at 11:30. It was no way for my food. She literally took her time to Bagget very carefully so nice wonderful place to visit. The food was amazing. Will be back soon. Thanks guys for good customer service.“
“Definitely coming back!Fresh ingredients, food comes out made to order, great menu for casual healthy lunch options in the Short North finally! This is their second location after their successful downtown location.Best of all is that the staff clearly care about what they’re doing here! Excellent customer service and really living up to the name of an establishment named Rio Fresh :)I had the rio grilled chicken bowl and really enjoyed it. The chicken was moist, the beans and rice were piping hot, avocado was ripe and the greens were refreshing.“
“Just ordered the BOGO bowls online (my fav is the Chai's Mystique), and Kaitlyn made them perfectly!! She was crazy busy when I stopped in but had a smile on her face the whole time! She even gave me an extra bowl to try since I came from 2hrs away! Exceptional customer service! My favorite place to go when I am in town! Thank you, Kaitlyn!!!“
“After dim sum at Sunflower Chinese Restaurant, we went Kung Fu Tea for bubble teas for the road. We enjoyed the Winter Melon Green Tea with Mango Jelly at 30% sugar, 50% ice, and Taro Milk Tea with Coffee Jelly at 0% sugar, 50% ice. The green tea in the Winter Melon Green Tea was strong and kind of bitter, but it didn't bother us. The Taro Milk Tea at 0% sugar was a bit too sweet for me. It kept us hydrated for the first three hours of our trip home.“
“I have been drinking Jamba Juice on the east coast for at least 15 years. So I was elated when I learned that Jamba Juice is finally in Columbus. Great drink selections (except the Golden Summer Smoothie - disgusting), great/friendly service, and great location in the mall. It would be great if there could be an additional location in Easton as well.“
“Excellent customer service and great energy for her business. We tried this place for the first time today and will return. We tried the strawberry banana and mexican wedding cake shakes along with strawberry watermelon and a pineapple crush teas. Delicious! Lots of flavors to choose from and the shakes are quite filling!! 24g of protein in the shakes so it is an excellent meal replacement for me. Half through and I am very satisfied. 100% love it.“
“The staff is great I literally come 4-5 times a week and they’re phenomenal I do my best to tip and if I can’t I always make it up to them the next time best location by far between this one and Polaris even though I live closer to Polaris I rather make the drive to this one keep it up!“
“Me and my boyfriend decided to try this new place that opened up and they had a lot of variety options! We usually go to smoothie king but something about this place just has more. The moment we walked in we were greeted by an associate with a smile. There was another associate there who asked how we were and told us that we could try samples as many as we want. My boyfriend got the PB everbowl but instead of açaí as his base he changed it to coco love. I ordered pina coolada and switched out the kiwi for bananas. For this to be a new place it's more than just a 5/5 it's giving 10/10. I would recommend this. I also attach the menu :)“
