“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.“

“The best acai in the area! Their menu is easy to follow with so many delicious options. Fresh and plentiful ingredients, excellent customer service and a great experience overall. Limited parking but worth waiting for a space available. Highly recommend.“

“First time here, wanted to try the coconut bowls they had but sadly were out of stock, I ended up trying the sunset bowl, amazing amazing! the lady who made it did an amazing job stuffing it and gave a very generous amount. As soon as I walked in was greeted immediately and the workers were very polite and super helpful since I wasn’t sure what to get, definitely would come back again.

the picture I added doesn’t justify how packed my bowl was with fruits and everything! I got a size regular :)“

“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☹️“

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

“South Block’s acai bowls hit the perfect creamy-sweet balance—my go-to is the PBJ or Mermaid bowl. Staff like Amy and Jabi bring consistently great vibes and helpful service. Yes, it’s a bit of a splurge (~$12), and slowdowns happen during rush, but that quality and friendly energy make it worth it. Pro tip: order ahead and check ingredient needs. A healthy Arlington gem!”“

“Great Sandwiches and Conversation!!!“

“Gute Qualität und stylisch.“

“The food was absolutely amazing! I especially loved the Mango Sunshine Bowl, it was so fresh and flavorful—and the brownies were the perfect sweet treat. The staff were really nice and patient with me, which I appreciated since it was my first time visiting. I’ll definitely be coming back again!“

“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!!“

“There is a reason I've been a regular for a little over a year. When I first encountered this location, I was absolutely satisfied. The food and food presentation was exceptional; THE MATCHA BOWL WITH PEANUT DRIZZLE IS FIRE!!! The lovely ladies that work in the front are so sweet and always welcome me, regardless of being a regular. The atmosphere is clean and clear, I spend most of my remote-academic work in the location. Its like doing homework at a coffee shop... but so much better!!!“

“Great services. Nice location.“

“It’s pronounced Playa not Player ! Lol
Latin for bowl. Just saying that because I heard someone mispronounce it. Look I’m a big fan Açai bowls and smoothies rather than ice cream. I definitely feel better as a dad giving them organic açai antioxidants and has such a cool story from its beach side start up.
Seating is limited however, if you do happen to score a outside table with a huge umbrella, you’ll be lucky to people watch during the busy mosaic weekends. Additionally, I’ve had the cold brew and it’s pretty strong nothing fancy just strong caffeine.“

“Beautiful place, delicious and healthy food, and nice people works there. Thank you! 👌🥇 Прекрасно място с отлично обслужване, вкусна и полезна храна! Приятна обстановка, интересни питиета. Силно препоръчвам!“

“So refreshing and delicious!“

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

“In person kiosk and online kiosk in store
Online kiosk lets you put special instructions if necessary.

Staff was very nice - I put on my instructions whilst using the online kiosk to remove any almond products - just in case since I know a lot of granola is made with almond - I have an almond allergy. The kind lady behind the register saw my request and asked me if I'd perfer to switch to a gluten free granola because their regular granola did contain almond.
I was very happy with how kind she was with the switch because of the almond.

Also I might be biased because I LOVE açaí bowls but the bowl I got was absolutely delicious!
I got the nutty açaí bowl

Vegetarian options: Most smoothie bowls are vegetarian

Menu is very clear about what's in each item

Parking: There are many parking lots scattered around the city“

“Great service and fun people!“

“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 landed here by error. I ordered arbitrary also. I was hesitant and the personnel was formal and in a hurry to take the order over the counter.
I waited 10 min for my avocado salad …. And … then the salad arrived, very generous portion with beautiful presentation.
At every bite I was happily surprised by the taste and the texture! Really good !
On of the best healthy salad I ever ate.

Bravo chef!
I ll come back k but maybe I ll take it away :)“

“Delicious! Robeks uses real fruit. Unlike the other smoothing places such as the smoothie king or jamba.Robeks smoothie is sweeten by the fruit. I have tried all the flavor some of my favorite are Passion fruit Cove, Tropi-Kale but my all time favorite is the Empore Açaí smoothie.Once you try them you’ll get hooked. All the girls at the Wisconsin store make great smoothies.“

“Went here with plans to get a wheatgrass shot after a chaotic night. I was greeted at the counter by the manager, Antonio. He was such a delight, friendly and extremely knowledgeable of the menu. He walked me through the different items and even convinced me to get the season special, a toast with Nutella, strawberries, and coconut, that with the wheatgrass shot was exactly what the doctor ordered! Will definitely be coming back to South Block!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Incredible food, even better mission!

Falafel Inc at Tysons Corner is a hidden gem that absolutely blew me away. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was welcoming and chill. The menu is simple but packed with flavor. I tried the classic falafel wrap and za’atar fries — absolutely delicious! Everything tasted fresh, crispy, and perfectly seasoned.

What makes this place even more special is their mission: they donate a portion of every meal to help feed refugees around the world. So not only are you getting amazing food at a super affordable price, but you’re also contributing to a great cause.

Service was quick, the space was clean, and the portions were generous. Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, or just love Middle Eastern flavors, Falafel Inc is a must-try. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again!“

“Delicious acai bowl, very refreshing and rejuvenating. Service was great, the girl working was all by herself but she turned out 4 orders rather quickly and was very polite and friendly. Good location- my only regret is that I didn't join their loyalty program so I can keep coming back!

Side note: make sure they include bananas if you order an acai bowl- they do unfortunately charge ~1$ for most personalizations (I like to add in cacao nibs and goji berries)- bananas were supposed to be included and they were not.“

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

“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!“
