It kind of has the vibe of a hotel lounge with comfortable couches and chairs for seating. Their menu isn't large or extensive but they do a great job with what they provide. I could see myself coming here regularly if it was located closer to my office. The amount of plants is a nice bonus as it adds to the relaxing atmosphere. The name Arbol Eatery really suits it. If you find yourself wandering Uptown and are in need of a quick bite or maybe just a place to lounge you should head to Carillion and find this place.

While visiting Charlotte, we stopped by Arbol Eatery and were honestly impressed! We tried four…read moresandwiches -- El Italiano, El Cubano, and Chicken torta -- plus the Caprese, and each one had its vibe and flavor. The standout for us was definitely the Cuban -- a super creative take on a classic, with that perfect balance of "original with a twist." El Italiano was a close second, packed with flavor and just the right texture. The torta was solid too, just a little spicy for my like, but I never checked if it was, and the Caprese made for a fresh, lighter option, it was missing the fresh mozzarella and fresh tomatoes. Service was fair. Overall, the place has a chill vibe, the food came out quickly, and we'd come back to try more of the menu.

There's a variety of açaí bowls, grain bowls, and cold pressed juices. My only qualm is the prices here. A grain bowl + a cold pressed juice being ~$30 is wild. I had the Southwest bowl and added chicken. It featured rice, salad mix, black beans, corn, cilantro, avocado and mango salsa. The bowl was large and I loved the mango salsa, but otherwise it was somewhat bland. I felt the sauce and/or chicken needed more seasoning to really elevate it.

They have a few locations and I've been to two of them, but this one is my favorite of the two I've been to. It is tucked away in the Food Lion shopping center along Park Road which I've always found to be a charming area. The chain is local to the Charlotte area and in addition to their restaurant locations you can find their products in several local retailers and some coffee shops as well. They are more known for their smoothies and wellness shots than their bowls, but that didn't stop me from giving one a try! I don't recall what it was called, but it was very good, with generous portions of banana, and a honey drizzle on top. Still plenty of places to try, but right now this is probably the best acai bowl I've had in Charlotte.

I was excited because I've always had great bowls from them in the past and I was glad my bf was finally getting to try them out. It seems their prices have gone up quite a bit. I know that's just where we are in life but for 2 medium bowls I paid $35. It was originally $38, but I think the cashier typed something in wrong and it came down to $35. That is outrageous for 2 tiny bowls. I know its fresh fruit and acai, but that really hurt to spend on such little food. It also took a while for them to prepare the orders, which is no big deal really. But for what we got, it just wasn't worth all the hassle. Aside from the price, the acai was essentially still frozen and very cold so we had to wait for it to melt some just to try to enjoy eating it. Overall, I was let down by a spot I used to really love going to. I hope it was just a bad day.
