Double yes. The vibe is clean, easy in and easy out, with limited seating, but you can definitely stay for a quick chat with a friend. The staff is always more than friendly and available to answer any questions. Plus, I love when they write cute little messages on the tops of the to-go bowls. At one point they were even doing screening parties of Love Island. LOVE! Ernie's is my new favorite quick treat spot and I look forward to continue to explore their menu.

When I knock on the door, she makes a gesture and mouths that they are closed. I have never tried this place and was looking forward to a nice healthy breakfast. Update: 5/1 at 9:35 am - I really wanted to give this place another try. I walk in and immediately the person who worked there said he didn't have a lot to offer at the moment because they just opened (they open at 9?). I said I just wanted to order an avocado toast and smoothie in which he told me he could do the smoothie, but it was going to take a while for the food because they were just getting started and the toaster wasn't on yet. He said it was better to come back later as I walked out. Update: 5/5 at 9:30 am - I ordered the egg salad toast, no egg salad. I ordered the matcha smoothie, no matcha. The girl said they had a huge menu and I should order something else. I don't want something else because you are out of food. I walked out. Third time is a charm and I will never give this place a chance again, nor recommend it.

Only issue was the lid didn't…read morehave an opening for the straw so when I opened the lid to drink it without a lid which already inconvenient, some of the drink spilled over and all over my hands...that's why I'm giving them 4 stars. How ridiculous to not have a hole in the lid to drink it with a straw!?!? It's a technicality but I do t want to have some of my smoothie spill over. Had to quickly grab some napkins because it got all over my hands! The service was ok. Not friendly, didn't give a warning about the lid situation, didn't offer napkins just not a care in the world! I would like to try their açaí bowls because apparently the owners are Brazilian and they should know how to do açaí bowls the best I'd guess! You can see the location right off of US1. Next to Salty doughnut. There is a tiny parking lot behind the store. I was lucky enough to find a space there with no issues. The store is new, very clean and has different products.

We enjoy stopping by at farmers markets when we see them along the way. It's always nice to go back…read moreto your favorite vendors but also to try out new ones that show up. I believe this vendor was a new one. We each ordered a Pork and a Chicken breast on a yakitori skewer with yakisoba noodles for lunch to go. I liked the Pork the best because it had a nice flavor to it. The chicken breast needed seasoning because it was bland. On the other hand, the noodles were very salty. I may give it another try in the future. This could have been an off day. There was street parking fairly close by.

When I found out she had never even had an açaí bowl, I was even more excited! She chose the Amazon Bowl & loved it! The bowl was deceptively huge. We shared it & still weren't able to finish (that's prob cuz I had just inhaled an LA Toast Beverly Hills) but it was so delicious! The açaí blend was perfect, the granola was super special & i think had rice crispies in it for a textural surprise & the fruit toppings were ripe & plump. Just soooo good! Definitely one on my favourite açaí bowls in the city!

Second, it's so extremely cold that you can't sit in or you'll freeze to death. That explains why there was no one eating there, and come to think of it, I never see people eating in there... The Nutella Pitaya bowl was OK, except that some of the blueberries were tart. Having been a $14 bowl, I feel robbed.

This was my first time at Playa Bowls. The menu is extensive, which can feel a little overwhelming…read moreat first, but I like that they allow you to mix bases (half of one flavor and half of another). I tried half banana and half coconut, and liked the coconut base more. Presentation was on point, the bowls look fresh and colorful. Flavor wise, it was good, though I probably wouldn't go for the same combination again. The ambiance has a fun beachy vibe that fits perfectly with the name, and the service was friendly and welcoming.

My biggest shock was when I tried to order a small apple juice. As soon as I saw the price, I immediately told the employee to put it back. Nearly $10 for a small apple juice is absolutely ridiculous and honestly feels like it should be illegal. With prices like that, it's hard to justify coming back. There are plenty of other places offering similar food at much more reasonable prices. I'll be avoiding this place moving forward.

The coffee felt well balanced, not too strong, not too watered down, just smooth and enjoyable. I ended up sitting down for a few minutes, and the atmosphere was exactly what I needed. It was super quiet maybe one or two other people inside which made it a perfect place to relax for a bit. Sometimes that calm, low key vibe makes all the difference. The staff really stood out too. They greeted me right when I walked in and were genuinely helpful, especially when it came to guiding me on coffee options. You can tell they actually care about the experience and not just rushing people through. Overall, I'm really glad I checked out this location. Great coffee, peaceful environment, and friendly service. Definitely a 5 out of 5 for me.

They have a good amount of tables available for patrons who want to sit down. The space itself has a lovely aesthetic, bright, clean, and inviting. I ordered the Fire Egg Wrap, made with a pasture raised egg omelette, mozzarella, feta, avocado, spinach, bell peppers, and olive oil on a whole wheat tortilla. It was phenomenal. The eggs were fluffy and tasted just right, and the avocado and fresh veggies made the whole thing filling and satisfying without feeling too heavy. Definitely a great way to start the day. The wrap came with their spicy sauce on the side, although I would not really call it spicy. To me, it was more sweet and tangy and honestly a little meh, but the wrap itself was good enough that it did not need the sauce anyway. I also ordered an unsweetened matcha. It was decent, although I personally prefer a stronger matcha flavor. This one was on the lighter side, which I can appreciate is probably more approachable for most people. Service was fast and efficient, with hardly any wait time. Overall, a very satisfying breakfast and a nice option if you are at Dadeland Mall and looking for something fresh and filling. I did stop by around 9 AM, so the time of day probably helped, but it made for a quick and easy breakfast.

Slow service and bad coffee…read more Paid $17 for a smoothie and a latte. It took over 20 mins and they were not busy. My latte tasted like American coffee with milk. I had asked for honey and cinnamon and received neither. The smoothie was fine but for $17 these items were subpar. Maybe they forgot about my order because a person walked in and ordered food and received his order before I received mine. I'm not sure but there was a guy unloading items into a cooler who seemed like management and there was no acknowledgement of my long wait.

Vegan food can be hit or miss, but it was definitely a hit here! I got the vegan burger which was better than a regular burger to be honest. I also had a smoothie, the crave, and they allowed all the substitutions I needed and it was delicious. I honestly wish I lived closer to come back again. But if I'm ever in the area, I will definitely be coming back for another burger. They also have some little desserts they outsource which were vegan and delicious as well. The customer service was also very helpful and gave me some great choices to try out. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
