Although the menu is pricey, everything tasted great, and the smoothie was particularly rich, smooth, and a refreshing treat. I appreciated that the menu is very detailed and labeled with many common allergens and the amount of protein (many options with over 25g of protein!). With such a large menu, it can be a bit overwhelming reviewing for the first time. This location was very spacious with tons of comfortable seating inside which makes for a great place to get work done or hang out. The staff were very friendly and the food was ready in a reasonable amount of time.

The women working who took my order was really nice and I could tell took care in making my toast. I got the banana toast with cashew butter. (11.50$). It was really good.

Would be interested in coming back to try their juices and açaí bowls.

Tried Playa Bowls for the first time a few months back but forgot to write a review for it. It's…read morebeen on my mind constantly since then though, so Playa Bowls is for sure worth the try! Their fruits are really fresh so their açaí bowls are one of the freshest ones I've had. There are plenty of berries and granola to go along with the açaí at the bottom half of the bowl. I usually order the Pura Vida bowl, and upon first glance $13 might be on the high end for an açaí bowl. But in my opinion one bowl is perfect to share between two people, maybe even 3. So I'd say that you're going to be getting enough to make it worth your money. I recommend the Pura Vida for anyone new to açaí bowls but the other options that they have look great as well. I usually order online via their website and then quickly swing by in person to grab my order (although I think you might be able to do delivery via UberEats too) and I've never had any issues with that. 5 stars!

Playa Bowls near Northeastern is a chain that has found a comfortable home in the area, and the…read morelocation holds up well as a go to for a refreshing, health forward meal that does not require much thought to enjoy. We walked into a relaxed space with a consistently friendly and engaged staff, making the experience feel more personal than a typical fast casual stop. The acai bowl is the foundation of the menu and it delivers reliably, with the base thick enough to hold the toppings without turning into soup partway through. The Nutella bowl is the most popular order, and the combination of the rich spread against the acai base works in a way that feels indulgent without completely undermining the healthier premise of the meal. The mango bowls are a lighter, brighter option for anyone who wants something less earthy than the acai, and the Nica Bowl is another solid choice for a more composed build. The customization options are generous and the staff is helpful in steering you toward combinations that work if you are unsure where to start. Prices land in the eleven to thirteen dollar range, which is on the higher side for the format, though the quality of the fruit and the portion sizes make it feel reasonable once you are eating it. For a post workout meal or a lighter lunch option near Northeastern, Playa Bowls is an easy and reliable choice.

I've only been here twice and both times it was unsatisfactory. The second time was not just…read moreunsatisfactory but actually very bad. The first time, I submitted my order on the kiosk. While I was waiting for my food, one of the cooks (Latino gentleman I think, didn't get his name) called me over from across the room and asked me if I wanted greens in my bowl. I couldn't understand if he meant in addition to the quinoa that I ordered or instead of the quinoa so I just said ok. I was surprised later to find that my bowl did not have the quinoa that I ordered. Why would he ask if I want greens instead of just reading my order? I called to report the issue and dismissed it as a miscommunication. The second time, I submitted my order online. It was about a $45 order (two bowls). While waiting for my food, I asked one of the girls (Latino girl, kind of big with curly hair I think) if my order was ready. She said no and asked me if I wanted chicken in my bowl. I said that all of the information was already in the order that I submitted online and paid for. By the time I got home, I noticed the protein in one of the bowls was missing: teriyaki seitan. I went all the way back to the restaurant and asked to speak with the manager. She seemed to already know that the food was missing and asked, "chicken"? And she said that I could not speak to the manager. She offered me a free dessert but I declined. Again, I asked her to read my order instead of confirming with me what I wanted in my order. She said ok and handed me a container of food. On my way to the car, I checked the container and it was buffalo chicken, not seitan. I told her that it was seitan missing, not chicken, and she apologized. She handed me the seitan and I went home. When I got home to eat my bowl, I noticed not only was the seitan missing but the chicken was missing. So both bowls were missing protein. Fortunately, I still had the chicken she incorrectly handed me the first time. To recap, I paid $45 for two bowls. Both were missing the proteins (the most expensive and substantial part of the meal). I went back and she failed to fix my order and refused to put me in contact with the manager. Overall, there seems to be a major communication gap and maybe an English comprehension gap in the staff where they are unable to understand what's being ordered, causing major inconvenience and incorrectly making what is priced as a premium meal.

I…read morewould definitely recommend their new Protein Acai bowl, it has amazing macros and is packed with tasty and healthy ingredients!! I appreciate that their base isn't overly sweet and they give an abundance of toppings for an amazing variety of texture. To be fair, this spot is a little pricey so maybe a treat just every once in a while, but you're bound to be satisfied anytime you do choose to come! They also offer some delicious ice cream and smoothie options, perfect for a quick treat on a hot day if you're not craving a full meal but still want something on the healthy side. From my experience, the service is kind and helpful, and the vibes (which are similar across all their locations) feel very pristine and calming. I definitely recommend this spot and can't wait to try more of their flavor combos!

I haven't tried the freezes again since my last experience, but the acai bowl I had was great. The portions were what I expected and the server even was kind to let me pick a different topping on bowl since they were out of one of the standard toppings. I appreciated the attention to detail and taking a moment to make my experience better, rather than just skipping out on the topping. This recent experience was encouraging enough for me to come back sometime soon.
