“Alexandria, VA - Driven by many times but never stopped. Robek's was a sponsor for a local 5k thus we received free coupons for a small smoothie. We visited this bright and tidy shop on a quiet Sunday morning. Both employees were very friendly and quickly served us delicious smoothies. Even gave us recommendations which we appreciated. The smoothies were cold, fresh and delicious. We would stop again for a treat.“
“Everything about this place and location is 5 star. I love coming here. The food is always fresh and amazing and the atmosphere is just as amazing.Vegetarian options: As vegans we love this place.Parking: Street parking and parking garage right in front of store. I normally never have an issue finding a space at least with in a block of the store.“
“On a recent work trip to DC we were looking for pre-event fuel. Smoothies are the perfect snack to leave you feeling full but with the pep in your step you need to host an event. We all opted for the Blue Mystique which has banana, spirulina, banana, pineapple and mango. I added protein to mine and it was tropical, refreshing and delicious. They offer toasts, bowls, juices, smoothies and coffee. This seems like a great grab and go healthy option if you're in the area, and there are quite a few of these around town. Parking is a bit tricky in this area but thankfully we were a group so we hopped out of the car to order with ease.“
“Mumu is the greatest! The food is fresh and delicious and always has a special touch - like the deliciously seasoned potatoes on the side of the sandwiches. Also, the owner Jermaine is a great guy and always goes the extra mile. My favorite is the avocado caprese. You may think you’ve had a lot of avocado toast, but you’ve never had one as fresh and delicious as this one. Get over to Mumu on Langston Blvd underneath Moms - parking is easy, too!“
“Delicious food and great service. Rosie went above and beyond to make my meal perfect. When I accidentally left something in there and walked out, she came out of the building and caught my attention down the block. You can tell she really cares about her customers. I will be back!“
“Whenever my significant other and I want to get acai bowls, we always find ourselves coming to this business. The first time I went here, I didn't know what to expect. I knew acai was good for you but I wasn't sure if it would taste good. I was pleasantly surprised. I have not had a bowl that I did not like. Even more so, I did not find out until recently that they had a skin care line. I absolutely adore skincare products so the fact they had specific items to help with skincare from the inside out got me ecstatic. The location is a small permanent stand in the union market area. There are a multitude of other businesses in the complex. It does tend to get a little crowded in the area during busy hours. If you are not a fan of crowds, I would highly suggest going during slow times and days because it can be very overwhelming. There is a decent amount of parking but because there are some many people that frequent the area, I personally do not feel there are enough spots. I know there is an underground parking garage but you will have to pay for that. That being said, I absolutely love everything about the food and the vibes and will find myself coming here for quite some time.“
“The food here is very good! The sandwich’s, salads, and especially the fries are a good quality and are the best prices you’ll find around. The workers here are also kind and professional. You can see them preparing your food after you order, so you know it is freshly made. The garlic sauce and spicy sauce are a must! The water park is very nice for a quick bite, if you’re going to the movies across the street, or just want a clean, safe, outside getaway.“
“Claudia and her team over at the Logan store are amazing! My partner and I come here specifically to this one after we leave the gym because the folks are so personable and kind and they know what we before we even ask! They go above and beyond to make sure we have what we need to fuel back up after a hard workout session. It also is amazing to walk in and see tu familia and people that look like you. Thank you Claudia, yall are the best!“
“In order to get my health in line, I've decided to eat more/drink more produce. This decision isn't cheap but I'm giving it a shot. After having some extremely expensive Smoothies from Fruitive the past couple of days, I decided to give Zeleno a shot. I ordered the Mango Dragon Smoothie, Acai Bowl, and the Classic Wellness Shot. I spent about $2 less for all this than I would have at Fruitive just for a Smoothie. I spent $33 for all this at Zeleno compared to $35 at Fruitive. I ordered online yesterday for pickup today through the Toast app and had no issues walking in and grabbing my items. The space is small, but charming. I was very impressed with the Acai Bowl and Smoothie but the Wellness Shot was extremely tart and spicy. I wasn't sure what to expect but I can say it wasn't for me. I like the fact I can get more bang for my buck here compared to Fruitive and might make this my daily spot during the week for breakfast.“
“I’ve been coming to the Union Market location for about a year mainly for breakfast most weekends and I keep returning. Why? Excellent food and drinks, strong coffee, outstanding service and a very nice ambiance. Luckily it’s across the street from my apartment building.Parking: There is a garage parking option a block away that is free for 3 hours, otherwise there's paid street parking available. Difficult to find street parking during busy times of the day. Easy in the mornings.Wheelchair accessibility: Street to restaurant access is easily accessible by wheelchairs with no steps involved. Front door is double wide; however, need to open manually. Staff will happily help open the doors.“
“love this place! great people! great food! my fav is robson ❤️❤️❤️Vegetarian options: all veg not sure about vegan but all vegParking: always has parking super big free public parkingKid-friendliness: I think kids would love this placeWheelchair accessibility: Are you wheelchair accessible woo“
“I have become the thing I hated most - a yuppie who eats $15 smoothie bowls. sigh.that said, South Block is basically the gold standard of smoothie bowls. it consistently tastes great and service is quick. ingredients are fresh, and the entire place is immaculately clean. a little pricey but pretty on par for smoothie bowls and Arlington in general. I've never gotten anything other than a smoothie bowl - their fresh pressed juices look delicious and exorbitantly expensive.-1 star because you order on an ipad and it still asks for a tip. like, you have to awkwardly click through to avoid tipping the IPAD. tip gouging is becoming an epidemic and it's hella annoying.Wheelchair accessibility: very wheelchair accessible“
“The Mermaid Bowl was so refreshing - I definitely recommend it! South Block had a great selections of juices, smoothies, and bowls so it was hard to choose. My husband had the Cave Monkey smoothie and he absolutely loved it. Again, 10/10 - I highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area.“
“From the moment I entered, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm by the manager and the attentive staff. Their friendliness and willingness to assist created a welcoming atmosphere that immediately stood out. It's rare to find such a high level of customer service, and I want to commend your team for their professionalism. The store is very well kept, very clean.What truly impressed me was the efficiency of your kitchen in preparing my order. The speed at which my food was ready was nothing short of remarkable. Despite the quick turnaround, the quality of the meal remained outstanding. It's evident that your team places a strong emphasis on both speed and excellence.I believe exceptional service deserves recognition, and I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude. My experience at South Block was not just about a meal; it was about the overall positive and efficient dining experience your team provided.Thank you for setting the bar high when it comes to customer service and food preparation. I will undoubtedly be returning and recommending your establishment to friends and family.“
“Great healthy food here. The prices are a bit steep so it's more of a treat than a daily routine. The overnight oats were delicious, and the avocado toast was that plus a work of art! The dining area is bright and cheery, but you'll be just as happy taking an order to go.“
“Superior to the competition. Visited a Robeks for the first time today. Completely satisfied. My six year old had a strawnanna berry and I had a piña koolada. The medium was enough to split between two little kids. Good selection of other things on the menu, too. Would definitely go back.“
“South Block is a relaxed spot that specializes in health-conscious options. Their menu, though small, offers great prices and includes cold-pressed juices, healthy toast, smoothies, and acai bowls. I had the pleasure of trying the peanut blast smoothie with added bananas, and it was absolutely delicious. The customer service was top-notch, with speedy and attentive service. The interior design was pleasing, and the establishment was impressively clean. I'm eagerly anticipating trying their acai bowls next time. I was soengrossed in the deliciousness that I forgot to snap a photo of the smoothie!“
“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 recently visited South Block at George Washington University and was highly impressed with the quality of their smoothies! The ingredients were fresh and the flavors were delicious. I loved the fact that they offered a wide variety of smoothies, with different combinations of fruits, veggies, and other natural ingredients. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and they even helped me use my gift card to pay for my order. Overall, I recommend South Block smoothies for anyone looking for a healthy and delicious treat!“
“Pretty decent selections of beverages and açaí bowls. First impression, service is good. Cashiers are ready to take on orders and acknowledge you right away! (: I enjoy this spot because it's you can literally " chill " while enjoying an açaí bowl and read a book. Pretty clean tables and chairs. Must visit.“
“Downtown DC needed a great juice bar for a long time, and it finally has one. This gem is great. The staff is super friendly, and my order came out quickly. Lots of variations to choose from. This is definitely my afternoon go-to spot in downtown DC.“
“If you're on the lookout for a refreshing and nutritious treat in the heart of the West End Plaza along West Broad Street, look no further than this place. I ordered the Acai Strawnana Berry Bowl and it was delicious. The service was very friendly and accommodating. The place was very clean with very limited seating. Parking was limited as well as it is shared with the Plaza and can be very busy during high-traffic times. Overall was a great experience. Enjoy!“
“My favorite smoothie place is ROBEKS and will and has been for the last 10 years. Simple fresh clean ingredients. Can't even compare to other smoothie places like the Asian ones that sell fake and processed highly sugary drinks. Tropical smoothie is bleh (fake) Smoothie king (fake) Etc. ROBEKS“
“Loved stopping here for the past three days. Fast service, consistency, and tasty. Got the lavender latte and it was just the right amount of flavor and came out with a pretty milk heart on top every time.Valentina was very nice and remembered me from the days before. Notably no parking in front of the shop, but the side street has plenty of street parking and the area is very walkable.“
“The trout and the brisket were delicious, one side, the beets were very nice, broccoli that came with the trout was rather limp and grey, but flavorful, maybe just needed to be blanched prior to grilling. The bread basket had freshly baked, warm, 3 selections, 2 very good, one a bit underdone, a spoon biscuit. Nelson was a knowledgeable server of food and drink. One person had white wine, another a beer on tap, and it was a welcome suprrise that The Falls had two of the premium non-alcohol beers, both Athletic brand, one an IPA. The noise level was just moderate on this weeknight dinner. We will return to this pretty and delicious addition to Falls Church dining.“
“Ordered the green bowl and was pleasantly surprised and how tasty it was. I typically only get acai bowls so this was my first time just getting a standard smoothie bowl. The line was super long at this location but figures for a Saturday morning.“
