“This restaurant was excellent! It’s similar to Chipotle in the sense that you can build your own bowl, but with Indian dishes instead.

I ordered the mixed greens with chicken tikka masala and basmati rice, and everything was incredibly flavorful and fresh. The service was quick and efficient, and the food came out hot and delicious. I also tried the samosas, which were amazing.

Overall, everything tasted fresh and well-made. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place!“

“This has to be the best Just Salad location in the city. The employees are so pleasant and efficient. The manager Chyanna is so engaging with her team members as well as customers. She even remembered my order☺️ The restaurant is also very clean & fully stocked with utensils & condiments. My go to location for lunch🙌“

“Fresh“

“Bilal was very kind. It was my first time visiting this establishment and he helped me make my first order! I’m on a new diet so his patience was appreciated while I picked my meal :) Will visit again. Foods fresh and the crispy chicken is delish. If you order online it calculates the amount of protein / calories for you.“

“Perfect start to the day! We stayed here 4 or 5 times during our week in NY for breakfast. We tested porridge, acai bowls and smoothies. The "Hell's Kitchen Sink" tastes awesome (with peanut butter and cocoa nips.) The smoothies Boo Berry, Gymbuddy and Energy Boost are each made with almond or coconut milk and protein powder .We loved everything! The service is very friendly and There are only a few seats, so we were there early (about 8 / 9h) and had no problems getting a small table.Now we are back home and miss the delicious bowls!“

“A wide selection of Asai (and other based) bowls. Endless combinations of fruit with added garnishments. Reading the founders story and appreciating the immersive design of the location you can almost feel like you escaped from 2nd avenue off to a warm sunny beach elsewhere. Enjoy surfing the flavors of your bowl, there is no need for sunscreen and you won't need to clean up any sand before you get back home. There is an additional seating space to and a restroom inside. The servings are bigger than your average Asai bowl (may be enough for 2) but the prices are also relatively high.“

“sin duda una Rica ensalada, un lugar muy limpio, el personal muy amable, atención de 10. volveré....“

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Service was incredible i walked in while the store had a good amount of people, i saw 2 employees and thought id never get my order. As i order this kind young man helps me decide what bowl i want (he was very generous btw), you can fully optimize yours for your liking. After i finished paying, it was mostly just me there waiting for my food so the young boy says theyll have it out in a couple minutes so a check my phone and then boom order in my face (mind you they were making a lot of orders). I forsure thought it was premade and left out or something but when i tried it it was soooo good the nutella was still gooey and warm while the base was still frozen and refreshing and all the fruits were so fresh! I wish i took a picture cus the presentation was everything but i couldnt help but eat it :( . Nonetheless, Service was amazing, the young boy was really sweet and had a nice white smile, the tall young boy made my bowl with love, and overall my experience was one of the best in all of my fast food experiences. They are such hard workers. PLAYABOWLS I WILL BE BACK!!“

“I was originally going to check out Sweetgreens but upon seeing the reviews I decided to pass on it and luckily I passed by Just Salad. I wasn’t looking for something too heavy. Usually not a big salad person but this Balsamic chicken avocado salad changed me. Pretty standard with the romaine lettuce, grilled chicken, avocado and eggs but I really enjoyed how the sauce was not too overpowering and really brought everything together. I got light sauce and I think this was perfect for me. Each ingredient was fresh and delicious. I definitely recommend if you’re too lazy to make dinner and you want something simple and light.“

“Everything is amazing. ❤️❤️“

“I came here on a Saturday morning and it wasn't super busy. I was able to get a quick latte. I tried this nut honey latte and it was delicious. I love that they have non-dairy milk options. My friend got a soup and liked it. This is a good spot for grabbing coffee!“

“The people in the Grand Central location are so miserable and they make the smoothies & bowls just as bad as their attitude. This location the employees are happy & they make everything amazing!!! I highly recommend this location at 6th/36th!!!“

“Des produits frais et sains, un décor au top Hawaï a Panam, service haut level merci infiniment et à très bientôt.“

“New York City, Union Square Baya Bar is awesome, aesthetically pleasing and super friendly. Though this location is small it is warm and inviting. The staff know their regulars and welcome them with enthusiasm.
I highly recommend this location with its friendly staff.
My Birthday treat was super delicious, come get yours Aquarians!!!“

“This Sliced Chicken Green Goddess from Carrot Express was seriously delicious—so hearty and fresh. The savory kale and creamy avocado with that zingy soy ginger dressing was such a flavorful combo. I’d grab this again on MealPal in a heartbeat!“

“I've ordered from many places that make acai or green bowls But this Playa bowl in particular, is by far the best one in brooklyn. They always seem to get it right! I dont live close to this one so most of the time I have to Uber it & when I call, if i have a question they always answer the phone, & they make sure my order is just how I wanted it. Because sometimes the app doesnt show all deals. This place has been titled as a fav for sure!“

“Love Playa Bowls—best açaí bowls hands down!!! They’re hearty and you get a nice size bowl/amount for the price. The options are insane!

My favorite is the power -açaí bowl w/ peanut butter (shown in the picture). My kids love the mucho mango (also in the picture) and the Stupid Cupid (not pictured).

This particular location is a nice size. They have a few tables inside as well as a seating area. There is usually seating outside as well but the entire sidewalk block is under construction at the moment.

I’ve never experienced bad customer service. I’ve dined in, ordered online for pickup, AND I’ve had it delivered before. Always a 10/10!“

“I usually go for the smoothies and health shots (which are A1!! - the freshest and healthiest smoothies I’ve ever had). Today I ordered a hot plate (grilled chicken, brown rice and black beans, purple cabbage, and plantains).. OMG! Lol. I had no clue the food was as good as it was. I HIGHLY recommend! EVERYTHING is good.“

“I come here all the time and they’re always great! The staff is super helpful and patient — especially since I’m picky and don’t drink milk or eat bananas. They always get my order right and make it easy for me. Thanks for consistently great service!“

“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.“

“Ordered the Mezze Crunch salad and it was really delicious. Everything tasted really fresh and the ingredients had a great mix of textures and flavors. The salad was crisp, well balanced, and had a nice combination of crunchy and savory elements that made it really satisfying.

It felt like a lighter meal but was still filling, and you could tell the ingredients were fresh and well prepared. Overall a really tasty and refreshing option if you’re looking for a healthy but flavorful salad. Would definitely order it again.“

“Came in the snow storm , fast delivery . I ordered bison with sweet potato and broccoli and everything was so fresh and delicious . The sweet potato was amazing and not dry at all. Iced matcha with oatmilk was wayyyy better than Starbucks . Healthy and filling. Under 30 bucks for all the food and the drink.“

“👍 👍 👍 👍👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍“

“They were so nice and suggested the cinnamon doughnut since I couldn't decide on which treat I wanted. Yasser was more than friendly and heated up our doughnut for us and also suggested what beverage was his favorite, I ended up liking it too ! Special people like him make my experience 10 times more.“

“Amazing, clean food. Amazing vibe. A favorite in NYC. I could eat Inday everyday!“

“So tasty and fresh smoothie was so tasty and the salad was sooo good.“

“Excellent staff... A great place to sit for awhile and enjoy...“

“Vanessa was absolutely outstanding! She was incredibly professional and efficient, crafting not just one, but two delicious salads with precision and speed. She really took the time to ask me thoughtful questions—like whether I’d be interested in harissa chicken—and gave me spot-on recommendations, even sharing her personal favorite, the thigh chicken. Plus, she brought out fresh Caesar dressing, which was such a kind touch. I couldn’t be happier with the service—she truly excels at what she does! :)“

“I just moved to Woodside and was searching for a shop that carries healthy, vegan options as I’m vegan since 2012. I stumbled across Go Natural and it fits the bill perfectly. It’s a lovely, old school health food store that manages to fit a large number of options into a relatively small space. I wish the shop had a website as not everyone is on Facebook, but maybe that will come eventually.“

“I was in NY for my wife's 50th and I got food poisoning,we went to Harlem and one of tge street vendors recommended Watkins. Man these guys are the Real Deal they recommended the charcoal powder and man it got my stomach right in less 15 mins. Wish I would have found them on day one of our trip.“

“Keepin it real out here in UES
One thing I noticed is that most of the owner / manager at Baya Bar, most not all, are pretty nice, and this one at UES is def one of them. Super friendly to customers and even window cleaning staff. Really takes care of the people and takes pride in the store. Food & smoothie is solid, consistent“
