They stock a wide range of items you simply won't find in other grocery stores in the DC area, which makes it a go to if you're looking for specialty ingredients. The prepared food is excellent and tastes truly authentic. It's clear they take pride in doing things the right way. From what I've seen and heard, it's highly regarded by the many Brazilians in the local community, which says a lot. If you want the real flavors of Brazil, you've found it! Or actually, I found it for you :)

Service was great. We were waited on right away and the young lady explained different choices for smoothies. I decided to go with the Tropical Smoothie. My granddaughter ordered the Tropical Bowl. She was really excited that they have gluten free granola. We sat down and I loved the cute decor. There were really cute posters and warm woods. A fun fruit mural covers the front wall, as you walk in the door. My smoothie was fruity and delicious. It was so large, I didn't think I would finish it, but I did. My granddaughter loved her bowl and she even scraped the bottom of the bowl,for any leftover bits. That should tell you how good it was. I took off one star because prices are high. But, given the wholesome ingredients, great service, and gluten free options...I think this well worth it. As, one of the cute t-shirts says, " I really regret eating healthy today, said no one ever! " I agree.

I asked the security guard if I could speak to a manager. After waiting for 5 minutes, I asked my Cashier (William) if he could call down the manager again. She came down and said "you wanted to speak to me?" I asked her "why did you tell security to check my pockets?" She dismissed me timidly saying "Oh I didn't tell him to do that" I said "no, he told me that he was told by the manager to do searches, why was I asked to be searched?" She backed away and the security guard took over, breaching my personal space and trying to intimidate me. I asked him to get out of my face and he refused. I asked to speak to the manager and they refused. When I asked under what grounds they chose who is being searched, They refused to answer. I was told to exit and I refused until I could see evidence to justify me being banned, for not complying to a search. I was told no. The security guard continued to tell me to leave, and grabbed my Canada goose jacket and groceries, took them to the exit and put them on the wet, dirty ground. I am despondent. This is unacceptable.

I often order granola on the side because I personally don't like granola, but my daughter does. On a recent order, it was put directly on the bowl anyway. I chose to still take it because I didn't want them to have to throw away and remake an entire bowl, and they kindly added extra granola on the side--but it still wasn't what I ordered. Unfortunately, my order was wrong again today. What's disappointing is that the order is wrong whether I order online or in person. I love the product, but consistency and attention to customizations really need improvement.

There are several different bowls that come in a couple of categories, or you can get smoothies or toasts. I usually do the acai bowl with chocolate in it, and it never disappoints.

They also have these tasty cheesy bread bites -- it's called pão de queijo. I enjoy those, and will most likely get some sooner than later. Roxa (pronounced ho-sha) Bowl is where a Venezuelan restaurant used to be (that I was sad to see go), but whenever I want a healthy snack, this place typically comes to mind.
