Health Food Restaurants near Cranford, NJ

“Love the bowls and smoothies, healthier alternative to ice cream once in a while. We have bowls for dinner sometimes, they are so filling!
Staff is friendly and gets stuff done quickly.
It's mostly high-school and college kids so please be kind. If you don't have time to wait, order online! It's a great option when u are in a rush.
Enjoy“

“I recently visited Avocados Food Elizabeth Mall and was helped by Salomé, who provided truly exceptional service. She was very attentive and made my take-out sandwich order quickly and perfectly. The place was spotless and had a welcoming atmosphere. My sandwich was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. I highly recommend Avocados Food Elizabeth Mall for anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a clean environment.“

“The meals are delicious and filling. I totally recommend“

“Extensive menu that should satisfy anyone's palate. Easy to discern vegetarian and vegan options, and various choices for proteins, including fish and meat for non-vegetarians . Good happy hour pricing as well. Staff is fantastic. Full bar - only improvement would be a wider beer selection, and some on tap - there's only cans and bottles - but that's a minor issue. Love this place!“

“This location is the best! I’ve been coming to plays bowls for years now but always have the best experience at this location! Max is amazing very helpful and always makes us everything we want!(we are very picky) and he makes it with a smile and professional attitude! Honestly he’s the best“

“We have all the options where I live and every time I get Just Salad I wonder why I eat anywhere else. So many fresh dressing to choose from.“

“Always awesome!“

“I had a great experience while waiting for my purchase as I looked around and learned on how playa bowls came about.

Parking: Bleaker Street Newark Nj

Kid-friendliness: It’s is kid friendly staff are really kind to children and show patience as they placed their orders.“

“Extremely filling and tasty bowls. Love the Trailblazer“

“Delicious bowl and friendly staff.

Only thing is I placed an order online since I don't really like having to tell people orders such as my customized acai bowl [wasn't even complex though, just wasn't in the mood to verbally order it]. They claimed 15 minutes on the website and I understood. I went in a couple minutes later expecting to wait patiently but saw them making it right away, so I was happy. But then they stopped making it and had to take walk in orders. No biggie of course. Until all the walk ins got their bowls way before I did. I placed my order 10 minutes before the walk-ins did and mine wasn't even as complex or complicated. It definitely annoyed me a bit.

Only making this review to let people know you will have to wait 15-25 minutes when placing an online order, especially if they get many walk ins. In the future I will just make my order in my notes and walk in and say it to them next time.

Again, my bowl was delicious and the staff were friendly so I didn't even complain. Just letting the general public know what I learned. 👍“

“I came into Playa Bowls after a rough day, and I was honestly feeling pretty low. Mylo one of the employees, greeted me with such warmth and kindness—it completely turned my day around. Their gentle, comforting words and positive energy made me feel seen and cared for in a way I didn’t expect. Even after that he tickled my gooch! Sometimes, a good bowl and a kind soul are all it takes to start feeling human again. Thank you, Mylo, for being the bright spot I needed. Truly life-changing. :)“

“I came in huuuungry and nearly at closing time. I received VIP service and, more importantly, VIP portions. Zee and Briana were incredibly sweet and made the experience waaay more enjoyable, they were patient and mixed the sauces in so well with the rest of the bowl. Lovely lovely experience and the food hit exactly the spot i needed once i got home. 10/10 would recommend.“

“Good healthy food with your choice of options“

“Food is of excellent quality. Affordable, fresh, quick. Customer service is awesome as well with very friendly workers! There are 2 locations on Broad St. (1 near Military Park and another by Market St.) and one on Warren St. by Rutgers. Best halal street cart food in Newark!“

“I recommend the Orgreen bowl and miso soup. A perfect lunch in cold weather.“

“Love it all!great costumer service and the bowls were super fresh and delicious! Definitely be back for more 🤗awesome variety on their menu“

“I have always enjoyed the açaí bowls and smoothies I get! The consistency of recipes is spot on and the flavors are wonderful and fresh!“

“I love this place! The service is always fast and great. My favorite dishes are the steak tacos, the salmon, their califlower rice and their baked yuca fries, they’re amazing! The protein pudding and green juices are also so good!!!, they almost feel like a cheat meal 🤣. I’m so happy I found a restaurant with healthy, delicious food. Highly recommend!“

“Catered from here for my team building / staff appreciation event and it was amazing!! Everyone raved about the food - perfection selection of assorted sandwiches, apple waldy salad was the perfect pick for all taste buds ... truffles fries were the perfect add on, crispy and tasty! You have a whole new team of fans!!! Thank you!“

“I eat here for breakfast, lunch or dinner at least once a week for the past few months. Sometimes (most times) 4-5x a week. The food is delicious & the smoothies are perfect. (warning they are addicting) I lost over 25 lbs in 4 months. They really know how to make good food taste good. All of the staff is very friendly and patient with my annoying requests. I would like to specifically thank anna for always being so kind and asking literally every single time how is/was everything making sure my experience stays good. Half the time i forget to ask for a side of honey mustard or barbecue and if she’s the one taking the order she always remembers to throw one in there. Small things like that will keep a happy customer forever. Thank you all for this amazing establishment!“

“Food is always fresh. Kind of pricey and service is kind of slow here. It’s also always empty when I come. Hope it’s not a bad sign. It’s one of few healthy spots around. I know the other location in NJ already closed. But I enjoy my bowl and fresh smoothie all the time. Would recommend.“

“In addition to the tasty toasts and healthy smoothies -- with many diverse offerings and flavor profiles -- I loved the service more than anything.

The one item we didn't completely love when we went was our chai. Like many western chais, this one was too sweet. (To me, once it's that sweet, you lose all those aromatic notes of the ginger and cinnamon, but that's beside the point).

When I approached the workers with our feelings on the drink, they were quick to make a change without charging us. They completely remade the drink with less syrup, and it made a huge difference.

So, we we will definitely be back for a second visit! It's a great atmosphere, with fun options, and a helpful staff. Remaking that drink was really nice and showed they will do what's in their power to make your experience the best it can be.“

“Everyone there are super nice and very helpful. The food is fresh and delicious. They helped me a few time when I did my detox. They have lots of knowledge when your inquiring about a product. I love my tuna salad mix with balsamic vinegar...Yummy!😋 Will definitely recommend them. Can't wait to stock up again. Need to visit Asap! My#1 spot.❤👍“

“Came here shortly after recovering from COVID, as I still felt “off.” Was amazed by the range of herbs, tonics and remedies they offered! Whenever I’m in Newark, I make it a point to stop in and replenish my herbal supply! Highly recommended!“

“Beautiful place! The bowls are delicious!! So happy Playa Bowls is in Elizabeth!“

“I had the pleasure of being served by Ashley at Forty Carrots in Bloomingdale’s, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the moment we were seated, Ashley was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She made thoughtful recommendations, checked in at just the right times, and brought an energy that truly elevated the meal. It’s rare to find service that feels both genuinely friendly and perfectly professional, but Ashley struck that balance effortlessly. Her attention to detail and welcoming attitude made our visit memorable. Highly recommend asking for Ashley if you’re dining at Forty Carrots!“

“Have been here multiple times since we moved to the area 2 years ago and have always been more than satisfied. The food is always delicious no matter what we get (too many amazing dishes to name!)

Tip: if you're going on a weekend, to avoid a long wait, call ahead to be placed on the waitlist!“

“Love Springbone. Someone I know also Gluten-Free and clean eater mentioned SB to me a long time ago and honestly I forgot the name and all about it. Since I found it, it has become a staple in my life. I like to cook but Springbone gives me an enjoyable and delicious break from it, knowing that they care about the same things as me and do it so wonderfully. Thank you SB“

“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 !!?“
