Acai Bowls near Bethesda, MD

“Fantastic smoothie! I ordered the Crazy Monkey and it was delicious. I have several food allergies and the person who helped me was very gracious and made sure my drink would be safe for me. The atmosphere was nice and bright and the facility was incredibly clean.“

“The best Brazilian-style açaí you’ll find around, simply delicious! The staff is always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better.

It’s definitely worth stopping by, whether you’re grabbing an açaí to go or sitting down to enjoy it there while having a nice chat. Highly recommended!“

“The açaí is so good. These are the best bowls. Fruit is fresh and loaded. The custom bowls are creative and tasty. Love the Dubai and the new biscoff themed ones. Great additions to the menu. Don’t sleep on the shakes. They are thick and tasty. Great spot!“

“This location is super cute, everyone is very nice. Emma helped me customize my Nutella bowl and help me with the southblock app (which isn’t the best 😭) AND made my açaí bowl! She was awesome and as always the bowl was 🤌🏻 amazing. 10/10

this is for the regional manager/corporate/IT: please fix the app ordering - more customizable options (no/optional toppings like fruit) and also the point system doesn’t even work (applicable point options not showing up, also a bowl credit being $15 in fine print but $12.99 in store???). I literally can’t ever order my bowls ahead of time and it’s just ridiculous atp in 2025☹️“

“I'm a retired chef from Louisiana but living in Nashville nowadays. I know about eating healthy and I would give this place 2 thumbs up.“

“refreshing and fulfilling smoothies Healthy and great taste“

“The absolute best place for Acai bowls and smoothies. To me this is the number one business in this field. On average I try to get South Block between 2 to 4 times per week. Staff is incredibly friendly and inside and out there are great places to sit. Visit them on a very very very hot day and you'll feel like your in heaven.“

“Great and friendly staff. Inform customers about products and the ingredients.“

“Gute Qualität und stylisch.“

“The Rosslyn location is so convenient for a quick lunch and the quality as always great. I ordered ahead online today but when I arrived there appeared to have been a system error. The staff was so quick to jump in and resolve the issue and prep my bowl right away so I could get back to work. Definitely 5 stars to the staff for great service!!“

“Excellent food and beyond excellent prices🌟“

“OMG! My favorite place for juice, smoothies, avocado toast and acai bowls now has SOUP! Just had their potato squash soup, and it was better than my homemade soup (which is also delicious). Will be visiting often this winter for soup, cappuccino and "stay away cold and flu" juices. Sooo happy to have healthy options close-by!“

“11/18/2025- Juice Extractions! Great drinks ( smoothie, juices, smoothie bowls!!! I had a blueberry, pineapple smoothie. Yum! The place is beautiful, clean, and nice inside! Staff of one was delightful! I like the cleanse programs they offer too! I will return! Has a delicious healthy drink experience!“

“This is my 3rd time here in the last 7 days! It has become a new favorite spot! I have had the CoCo Berry Bowl twice! Next on the list is the Acai Power Bowl add honey! They have a few locations in the city so whenever you get a chance, go check them out. You won't be disappointed!“

“Friendly and helpful staff, very clear and polite. Lots of options for drinks, smoothies and bowls! Very fast service, got my drink within a few minutes of ordering. I got the sweet cream cold brew, it was quite delicious, not to sweet and not to bitter. The atmosphere is very inviting, with plenty of seating and a gorgeous view of the trees in the courtyard!“

“Wow, what an amazing place for solo travelers looking for a port in the storm. Gisell was phenomenal! Super knowledgeable about all the products and provided stellar customer service. Amna and David were friendly and helpful. I got the Dragonberry bowl and it was great! Excellent for those who seek gluten-free products. I will most definitely be back.“

“I was greeted the moment I walked through the door. The staff was extremely polite and kind. Racel is amazing and definitely went above and beyond in giving the best customer service that I have ever experienced. And I have to mention the fresh produce and high quality ingredients. This was my first time visiting this location, and I will definitely be a return customer. I will recommend this establishment to others. Thank you for an outstanding experience at a top notch location.“

“I love it here 🫶 the staff is AMAZING 🤩“

“I love Acai Bowls and have had them many places. Playa Bowls has one of the best. I love the Pura Vida ( I get a banana added on). The bowls are generous and full of fruit; when you dig into the acai, there's even more fruit and delicious granola buried underneath! Perfect for a refreshing and healthy summer meal or treat!!“

“The Bowls and smoothies are my fav but the customer service is not it Everytime i come in they just stare at u and wait for you to say something. I never get greeted with little smile . I try to reciprocate good energy but idk the workers seem a lil miserable“

“my son and niece are OBSESSED with playa bowls! we never leave with a bad experience, the workers are so incredibly nice, and shoutout Ellie, every interaction ive had with her was the sweetest!! Always excited to come back here, defined one of my fav spots always such a vibe!!“

“Great location, right at the Ballston quarter / Ballston Metro.“

“Great service and fun people!“

“Great fast service with fresh ingredients and they will explain the ingredients you'd like or are interested in. You can create your own bowl etc at your own expense (may or may not be extra depending on your ingredients you add or subtract)“

“Robeks is easily the best smoothie shop in this area and there are a lot of smoothie shops in this area! I have enjoyed every Robeks smoothie I have ever had. The carefully created smoothies on their menu are delicious and are completely customizable if you want to omit, change, or add an ingredient. That is great for people on various restrictive diets. I also love the Build Your Own option! When I am not in the mood for one of the smoothies on the menu because I am not in the mood for sherbet, yogurt, or protein powder, I use the BYO to order smoothies with tons of fruit and a little juice. Sometimes, I even order a second very fruity BYO, so I can put one in my freezer and eat it like Italian ice the next day. Try it, you'll love it!“

“First time coming to this location and it really shows the ethic and amazing effort that these employees put into their work. Thanks“

“Fabulous seasonal pumpkin smoothie —not pumpkin “spice” but actual creamy delicious pumpkin😁“

“Stopped in for a quick and lite lunch around 1 p.m. and had next to no wait. I ordered the Fig & Prosciutto toast as well as the Tropi-Kale smoothie. The smoothie was excellent, and the large size is a great value over the medium - $9.99 for a smoothie, but that is in line with Tropical Smoothie and other places that offer similar products. The toast was fairly disappointing though, for $9.49 the piece of toast was much smaller than anticipated. I believe it was sourdough but the size of the toast was maybe 1/3 smaller than anticipated and for the price I would have opted for another menu item. As far as taste goes, the prosciutto was decent but the fig jam was disappointing. I will be back for the smoothie but I will avoid toast items in the future.“

“I am from the Chicagoland area and I missed Robeks so much! I love the fact that they use real frozen fruit instead of ice! I hate watered down smoothies and the other places in the DMV just haven't been cutting it! I'm sooooo glad Robeks is here! I'm also a nutritionist and love that I can customize my order and send my patients after treatments.“

“I have been going to this Robeks for over 5 years and have never had a bad experience! I love that it's always quick and easy- especially ordering with the app.

The hours are also great because I can get a smoothie later than other places!“

“One of the most flavorful meals I’ve ever indulged in! Love the vibes there, and that everything is healthy and organic. Impressed that the prices weren’t too high either! Was just traveling through Salem on vacation in September & glad I found this place. Highly recommend. (Pictures are of the Rainbow Harvest bowl and Blue Magic Smoothie) - which had a kick to it, but tasted like Christmas.“

“커피와 디져트 훌륭합니다. 베이글에 여러가지 토핑도 가능하고 정성스러움이 보이는 집입니다. 커피맛도 좋았고. 반려견들을위한 배려도 느낄수 있었습니다!“

“We’ve eaten at The Falls for both date nights and family outings and were extremely impressed every time. I was excited to hear they also do catering! We called The Falls, spoke to Kelly and she was super helpful, communicative and helped with everything from how much food would be appropriate for our size event and how many staff would be recommended. We had our annual Santa party with 190 people and everyone was super impressed with the food quality, the attentive staff and how friendly and courteous they were. They left my house cleaner than before the party and even boxed up some left overs for us to enjoy. They’re a true blessing and made our party one we’ll remember for years! Thank You- to Kelly and Mark and the entire Falls crew!“

“Warm and friendly welcome. Delicious açaí! I would like to try more delicious bowls ❤️“

“My daughter won a contest on Instagram for 2 free meals, drinks and cookies. She invited her sister, so it was 3 of us. We drove from Babylon to Manhasset to try this cute little cafe. When we got there I let the cashier, maybe manager know who we were. She was so gracious, explained the menu items and recommended the coffees we should try. We placed our order and waited. The food that came out was so pretty, smelled amazing and was delicious too.“
