Amazing açaí and dragon bowls! Loved that I was able to customize my bowl: sub for gluten free granola, omit honey and sub it for almond butter. 😊
This place is so weird and I am very confused about what I ate. First off the music is so loud and the speakers are in the back where they call your order. They took my order, I stood in the back and waited. They called my name, flashed a piece of paper with my name on it and then quickly threw it out and handed me my food. It was not my correct order. I told the man that it was wrong. He took it back then a girl came and argued with me that I got this bowl and I dont have what I ordered in it and that I took someone elses order. He did call my name or what I thought was my name. Its possible I miss heard him over the extremely loud music and blenders, but I saw my name on the piece of paper. On top of all that, my food was not good. The granola and the acai both had the same sickly sweet artificial flavor that I am assuming is protein powder. I have had acai before I know what it is supposed to taste like. The menu board nor the website state that there is protein powder in the acai, but regardless it was inedible and I spent $16 to only eat the fruit then throw the rest out.
I love Playa Bowl FIT the staff is so nice and the Oh Mega Bowl and the Almond Joy Bowl are my favorite so far. I can’t wait to try more!
My go-to stop after yoga. I’m addicted to the Kowabunga smoothie, which always comes out the perfect texture - so satisfying after a workout.
Delish! Lots of options for different bowls.
Visit time. Enjoyed the strawberry smoothie. Will be returning to enjoy other flavors and bowls.
Congratulations on opening. I want to say the bowl was amazing I came back for a second time to thank the young lady Celina for making it for me and she is a sweetheart and sure knows how to make a bowl. Next time I come I hope she’s there again.
Good acai bowls with fresh ingredients. A little on the pricey side though
Really loved that place. The only place we tried more than once on our six day trip to New York.
There is a Pizza shop inside, the best mushroom pizza slices in NY!
45 minutes to assign a driver to my order, meaning I got an Acai soup delivered
You can’t beat the Half coconut/half acai 8th Ave bowl.
The place was clean and big. What I got I didnt like so much but it could have been what I added to it and was not feeling 100%.
Love that every fruit and vegetable are fresh, service is friendly
I ordered the chia pudding and it was amazing. I really loved this place.
Everything is so fresh and tasty, I LOVE IT!
Absolutely horrible service, they closed almost 15 minutes before closing time. Not coming to this branch again.
These are really tasty and they load them up big.
Very quick pickup service!
Acai energy smoothie is on point.

Tide bowl 👍
Love this place, every time it is clean, the bowl is well made and overall just an enjoyable experience.
Very tasty bowl, and especially good feeling when your food is all natural and plant based.
👍🏿
Nice, clean, bright place with lots of options all clearly laid out, making it easy to figure out what you want and place an order.Fairly quick from ordering to ready, space inside to sit down, at a table or on bar stools. Friendly staff friendly
Good smoothies
Good Acai bowl!

2022-08-02Look at the pictures and you will see their extensive menu. Even the picky people have a place here. The bowls are large servings. I ate half and saved half for later.I enjoyed the Beach Break fresh squeezed juice and Dragon Berry Pitaya bowl. If smoothies and bowls aren’t your thing, try their fresh pressed juices, or prepackaged nitro brewed coffee or healthy elderberry shots.

2022-07-29I had the Nutella açai bowl, it was amazing came with strawberries, banana, coconut flakes and granola on top, super filling and very tasty. Though it’s a Nutella bowl just a little drizzle of Nutella on top, but otherwise it was overall amazing! A variety of bowls to try. A very tropical ambiance to sit and enjoy your bowl! Price is a little higher, do try downloading the playa bowl app to get offers! Thanks to one of the reviewers who mentioned it!! I got off on my first bowl and points added to my app.The very next day had a mango pina colada smoothie and was very disappointed! It tasted no where like pina colada nor did it have any mango flavor, it wasn’t like a smoothie rather like crushed ice! Just tasted like some flovoured water! Dissapointed as we pay 10$ for 16oz!!

2022-03-31I ordered the Pura Vida (added strawberries and substituted Nutella for honey). Not to mention if you want to add toppings they charge $2 per topping added. Playa Bowls uses frozen açaí, which tastes artificial (has corn syrup), not good, and not fresh. I got a stomachache after the açaí from Playa Bowls. Overall, I do not recommend this place, but I do recommend Oakberry (the Macdougal Street location).

2022-06-18The smoothie was good but this review is on Rosas pizza in the back. Ten stars. He gets it just right on the crust and cheeses. Highly recommend!

2022-06-20I do not know why there are so many bad reviews. I was pretty happy with my matcha smoothies and fruit bowls. They are healthy and refreshing and the blending taste nice.

2022-04-23These are by far the best bowls in NYC. The people saying it’s not fresh enough don’t understand how acai bowls are made or should taste. Portions are good and they give lots of fruit and everything seems made to order. You can customize the bowls if you don’t like one ingredient and add any extra you want and not pay the extra $2. See you tomorrow playabowls.

2022-07-11Funny how it’s my first time here and the guy that takes my order doesn’t tell me that if I download the store app I can save in my first purchase and these three built guys come in and all the promotions come out! Qualify every customer not just the customers you are attracted too!

2022-07-15There’s so much variety and the bowls are so healthy and yummy. As I stand in the store and look at the menu I can’t decide and now that you have steel cut oatmeal that’s such a game changer keep up the great work!!

2022-05-02I went there this afternoon and got the green smoothie and it was super watery unlike the 3 other times I had it. Actually it has no taste at all I make this with my plain whey protein.. are you taking out the fruit?? Can I take it back it is like green foamy water. Whoever made this on 7th Ave, nyc at around 2:45pm does not know the recipe
