    Protein punch, and power acai
    KyLee P.

    We came here every day while traveling. The bowls were delicious and unique. Amazing customer service, and healthy creamy acai bowls. You won't regret it!

    Second time going here. Very good smoothie bowl spot in Boston. Would highly recommend. Great after a run. Nice plaza across the street.

    Smoothie
    Jenny T.

    I would only come back here for the smoothie bowls, tbh. They're seriously some of the best smoothie bowls I've had in my life - consistency is PERFECT, super filling but not bloating filling like those açai bowls with tons of sugar, good amount of fresh/healthy toppings that don't taste artificial and great size. I recommend eating them right away though not getting to go, but your call. Their menu has a good variety of stuff, but their smoothies are good but I wouldn't come back, and I'm not a juice person so this juice was not it for me. Being super near Northeastern, this area is popping #northeasternalum I love that area. However, the store is pretty small but there is usually good amount of seating (no outdoor seating, though).

    Feels like I'm doing the right thing here. Eating healthy! Eat something I don't usually use. It's a little hard to understand those menus but once you know, I think this is a great place to feel healthy!

    Tried their Coffee Lover for the first time, and I'll for sure be coming back if I'm ever in a mood to treat myself (if I'm supposed to become a millionaire by not getting Starbucks every day, then I'm looking forward to being rich by saving $9 on a smoothie). I liked how the drink stayed true to its description: almond milk, coffee, almond butter, banana, honey, cacao, protein. If you could imagine the taste of coffee, almond butter, and banana right now, then combine those flavors in your head and that is exactly what the drink was like. Not too sweet and surprisingly light despite having both almond butter and protein! If I had known how much I'd like the drink then I would have gotten a larger size. The nice blast of air conditioning was so nice to walk into on a hot and humid Boston summer day. This place is pretty awesome but I wish their menu was a bit more affordable.

    I like to look at this place, I guess I put the eyes in Energeyes. I like the Acai from here but I don't love it, which can be said about the majority of Acai in the country honestly (the Brazilians do it right, the Americans not so much), and it could definitely be better. Also, the prices are so annoyingly high that it cost them another star, but I decided to bump them back up from 3 to 4 because they've always been really friendly and some other places in this part of Boston aren't. Plus their rent must be very high being in such a popular college area. But for Acai in Boston, nothing comes close to the authentic Brazilian taste at Oasis Bakery.

    Acai with granola and almond butter
    Abby R.

    I wasn't impressed with the matcha green bowl. Very soupy and not much flavor. I'd recommend one with granola and peanut butter to give it more thickness and flavor. For the price I would go back for a bowl. Their salad menu looks decent. I like concept of the restaurant and it was great service. Ordered ahead on the app and it was ready pretty quickly. The restaurant is small inside but there are some seating areas outside

    Celery Juice
    Juliette P.

    I really like this place I've been a dozen or so times. It is perhaps on the more pricey side but I like to think it's because of their ingredients and where they source their products for although I do not know! The pita pocket was very good I still think about it, very fresh. The celery juice was nice and fresh drank it all fast. The avocado toast is simple but fresh and tasty. I've also had açaí bowls and smoothies multiple times they were also good. I would mainly get ones with the protein as it would be post workouts and I still liked them with that added in. The WiFi works well, I've never had any issues and during this pandemic time not many places let you safely eat inside socially distanced but they do which helps needed breaks of always being on the go. Overall try it out you might like it

    Healthy Bowl
    Claire S.

    WOW WOW WOW! Was so impressed by Energize in Boston! I'm normally super picky about my smoothies etc because they normally don't taste fresh. Their acai bowl was amazing! I got the classic and added peanut butter. I also got the healthy bowl with greens, rice and assorted veggies and nuts... the perfect lunch or dinner! Finished off with two ginger shots! Everything was phenomenal and I'll be back!

    acai bowl
    Soo H.

    Smooth, delicious acai bowls which are a blend of Acai, Strawberries, Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Banana, Avocado and Agave, with Strawberries, Banana and Granola on top. There was just the right amount, enough to fill you, and it was not overpoweringly sweet. The consistency is a bit jello like and not watery at all which I really liked. Deliverable by grub hub with great savings, this acai bowl made my day, and I'll be sure to order again and try their other bowls.

    I've been dropping by fairly frequently after I started on a heavily modified version of Tom Brady's diet after gyming (I will eat like trash at some point in the day). Coincidentally enough, the TB12 book is also on display here along with other healthy eating books. This place is going to be pricey but that seems to be a trend for any juice bar - this place is no exception. However, the drinks that I have tried here are very good. I recommend Fuel and Post Recovery Shake for post-workout drinks while Coffee Lover is great if you also need to stay awake for the rest of the day. The mint from the Fuel drink does take some getting used to because the drink has mint, which gives a very grassy aftertaste. Regardless, I am definitely coming back here. IG: Mood4foodeatery

    An açaí bowl, buried under a mountain of toppings.
    Aaron J.

    Energize is kind of like that weird personal trainer type with the body of a 20 year old yet the face of a 50 year old, and who you can't help but admire, suspiciously-uniform tan and all. I was amused by the bad Romanian deep house being played and the books lining the benches advertising a sunny lifestyle in--uh--Boston, but in the end I was charmed. It's always hard to justify paying $10+ for an açaí bowl when they can be so easily made at home, but Energize definitely puts in the extra effort to stand out. First of all, their açaí blend is a lot creamier than average. It may not be to everyone's preference, but if you're looking for a meal replacement the bowl was a lot more filling than I expected. All of the ingredients were very fresh and generously topped. I asked for extra granola and coconut flakes and you literally could not see the rest of the bowl since they were piled on so high. For me that's a huge plus. Best of all though, the bowls come out in frozen metal dishes, which means the açaí stayed firm and chilled from the first delicious bite to the last. I would definitely come back to try some of their other options, and while the prices are on the high side the options for healthy dining in this neighborhood are sorely limited. Be warned, though, that the açaí bowls here are so filling that they border on decadent--and that's a good thing.

    Steven W.

    I have been looking for an Açaí bowl place like Blue Bowl in SoCal and so far I haven't found one yet but this place is close. They also do juices and salads as well. We ordered the açaí for $10 and came with agave and strawberries and bananas with granola. Good and cold but for each other topping it will cost you extra.

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.

As I walked in, the staff member at the counter was on her Bluetooth headphones and having a full conversation with a friend while simultaneously trying to take down someone's order. It was confusing to everyone involved and took some time. Same when I ordered, and it looked like another friend had come in and joined her behind the counter to chat (didn't see any sign of this person working there, but I may be wrong). Oh well, a bit of an awkward ordering process is not a big deal. The bowl itself was actually really tasty. It was a bit sweet for my taste, but it was large and satiating. I'd definitely recommend!

While the menu is entirely vegetarian with many vegan options, it feels approachable whether you are looking for a healthy lunch, a filling dinner, or just a smoothie or coffee. We walked into the Back Bay location, which has a bright, inviting interior filled with natural light, plants, and plenty of seating, creating a calm atmosphere that feels more like a neighborhood café than a typical fast-casual restaurant. The design is modern and clean, with a warm energy that makes it the kind of place where you can enjoy a meal at your own pace, meet a friend, or even spend some time working. The grain and noodle bowls are the main reason to visit. They are built around fresh vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and flavorful sauces that make each bowl feel substantial without being overly heavy. We appreciated that every ingredient tasted fresh, and the different textures kept each bite interesting. The spicy peanut noodles are one of the standout dishes, combining chewy noodles with crisp vegetables and a rich, savory sauce that has just enough heat without overwhelming the rest of the flavors. The falafel is another solid choice, with a crispy exterior and soft interior that pairs well with the fresh vegetables and creamy sauces. Beyond the bowls, there is a good variety of options depending on what you are in the mood for. The menu includes açaí bowls, salads, wraps, soups, smoothies, fresh juices, and coffee, making it easy to stop by at almost any time of day. The menu also changes with seasonal ingredients, giving returning visits some variety while still keeping the café's focus on fresh, healthy food. Even if you are not vegetarian, the meals are filling enough that they never feel like they are missing anything. The café itself has a relaxing atmosphere that encourages you to stay a while. The modern design, abundance of plants, and comfortable seating make it feel much more welcoming than many grab-and-go lunch spots in the area. The ordering process is straightforward, and the staff were friendly throughout our visit. During busier lunch hours, food can take a little longer to prepare since everything is made to order, so keeping that in mind is worth it if you are on a tight schedule. The seating area stays comfortable even when the café fills up, and the energy of the room remains calm and focused. Life Alive Organic Cafe stands out because it proves that healthy food can still be satisfying and full of flavor. The fresh ingredients, diverse menu, and comfortable atmosphere make it an easy place to return to whether you are looking for a quick lunch, a lighter dinner, or simply a break from heavier meals. If you are in Back Bay and want a meal that feels nourishing without sacrificing taste, this is a café well worth adding to your list.
