Acai Bowls near North Bethesda, MD

“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☹️“

“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 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.“

“Best location out there!! My server Jackie was amazing and she whipped up the most immaculate smoothie bowl“

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

“Gute Qualität und stylisch.“

“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!“

“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.“

“If you’re looking for an amazing pre- or post-workout treat — or just something delicious to satisfy your sweet tooth without feeling guilty — this place is it. The service is always wonderful, and the Cowabunga Smoothie is one of my personal favorites. Everything they serve is made with natural, organic ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about a bunch of ultra-processed stuff going into your body. It’s refreshing to find a spot that focuses on quality while still making drinks that taste this good. It’s always a great choice when you need a quick energy boost to keep your day going. Highly recommended.“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“Best bowls, smoothies, and staff around! I go to Playa Bowls every day I’m in Olney. Which is like 5 days a week since that’s where I work. Highly recommend! My go-tos are the Kowabunga smoothie with Almond Butter added and Power Acai bowls. Also they have cool stickers.“

“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“

“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.“

“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)“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

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