If you're anywhere near Buckner, do not sleep on The Reef. This little gem is serving up açai bowls…read moreand gourmet toast that are truly out of this world. Everything is fresh, vibrant, and clearly made with love. The açai bowls are next-level--perfect texture, not icy or watered down, and packed with fresh toppings like juicy berries, crunchy granola, and the creamiest nut butters. You can customize your bowl or go with one of their signature combos. And the toast? Absolute perfection. Thick, hearty slices piled high with things like avocado, goat cheese, fruit, and honey--balanced, flavorful, and beautifully plated every time. It's got a chill, clean vibe, with a friendly team who really seem to care about the food and your experience. It's the food truck on the way to the high school. And their hours are limited so check their Facebook for updates! If healthy can taste this good, I'm never going back to boring breakfasts again. I hope they are successful because we LOVE having this nearby!! Fingers crossed they can add hours and even a brick and mortar location soon!

This is my reply to the Playa Bowl response. Wow. I'm speechless. This company is all about CYA and…read moreshedding any accountability and responsibility. Their conclusion is that they are always right and the customer is, apparently, always wrong. I DID contact Playa within 30 days and did NOT receive any response. Nor did I receive ANY responses across the multiple trips I made (each time paying hefty bridge tolls). The ONLY time I heard Playa weigh in was when I made a BBB complaint as well as the poor review here on yelp. Each time, "management" replied to the site and NOT to me personally, assuming this was just to spare their public image and as a CYA technique. They don't care about me, my experience, or the average customer--their sole objective is to portray a fake image of caring when their poor business practices are exposed. Look at the pics I posted, they speak for themselves. All I asked for was common courtesy and decency. Most of my reviews on businesses have been glowing, so blaming my dissatisfaction on being a poor customer is shameful and appalling. I'm sure playa will, once again, respond to this review and NOT to me personally...and I'm sure more BS and fraudulent claims will follow because they have to have the last word to try to spin things away from their harsh reality that they can't follow basic principles of running a business.

They provide a large variety of smoothies and açaí bowls. We both ended up ordering a smoothie. I had the birthday cake smoothie and loved it. It tasted like the real thing. My friend got the chocolate banana smoothie and she enjoyed hers also. I love how the smoothies that we received would be 800 calories minimum but the larges we ordered were only around 280 calories with 25-30 grams of protein (everyone is obsessed with protein these days). The smoothies are a little expensive at around 8 dollars a cup but if you treat yourself once in a while, I think it's worth it.

I had difficulty choosing because everything looked so tasty, I decided on the Power Bowl meal 16oz for $12. My friend ordered the Super Bowl meal 16oz. I had purchased a gift card voucher so I used that to pay. I haven't had many açai bowls, so I don't have much to compare this one too; however, it was delicious and I felt good about the 17G of protein! Austin took care of us today, he was friendly and fast! I can't wait to return and try other items on this menu. Highly recommend if you're in need of a little treat.

A search for "açaí bowl" did not show me Juice Bar, but "smoothie" did. An online menu and ordering is available. I paid, picked a time and drove over for curbside. Juice Bar is tucked into an outdoor shopping center and easier seen from the road than inside of the parking lot. For reference, it sits next to Blaze Pizza. I pulled into a spot marked for curbside and checked in from the email confirmation I received when ordering. The store is open for walk in orders and takeout. The bowls come is only one size, about $10. I ordered the basic açaí bowl with bananas, strawberries, chia seeds, almond butter, granola and a drizzle of honey. It hit the spot and I especially love the portion of almond butter. Now that I know Juice Bar exists in my area, I'll be stopping by again.
