Interior decor
Lexi A.

Found a healthy gem in Elizabeth,NJ. The menu has a vast array of options. I truly enjoyed what I selected. The ingredients were very fresh and delicious! Decor was modern and gave a Hawaiian/south East Asian vibe. Staff was professional and friendly. The main thing that should be worked on is the queue system, a lot of customers were waiting for their order about for 20-30 minutes. Management should re-align on staffing strategy during busy hours.

Nutelloco- Coconut Bowl* (Coconut Bowls*) Extra Granola Extra Strawberry

Was literally craving at 8:20 pm and glad delivery was still possible. I am cutting a lot of sugar from my diet but after a month, I felt I deserved a break. I ordered the Nutelloco- Coconut Bowl* (Coconut Bowls*) with Extra Granola and extra Strawberry. Playa bowls is hands down the most fresh, delactable bowl that I ever tried. I originally thought I was ordering Acai bowl but it came as white. I was so confused but devoured it anyway. It was so so so good. So good that I want to come back for another one tomorrow.

What's better than ice cream on a warm beautiful day???? Of course playa, this place never cease to amaze me! It is my goal to travel to each location just because. I usually come here in the afternoon and the service is ok. This morning service was awesome and whoever made the bowls made them with love and care .

Completely satisfied and the place itself was very nice inside. Loved the private booths!

Pura vida bowl

Feeling blessed to have a playa bowls here when they're usually by the beach! I've tried other açaí bowl places and have yet to find one I like better than playa bowl (in NJ at least). Few places beat playa on portion size. The bowls are huge! They are generous with the fruit and granola too. I've tried various half and half bases but my favorite base is still açaí so now I just order 100% açaí base. My hack is picking a relatively inexpensive bowl like the pura vida bowl ($11) and subbing out the strawberry and blueberry for more "exciting" fruits like kiwi and mango. The price doesn't change as long as it's still two fruits! Great place for your açaí bowl fix. Large parking lot and you can take out or eat inside it is cute.

Stupid Cupid base with granola.

I love this location. They're always pleasant, patient and helpful. It's very clean!!! Not noisy and a peaceful atmosphere. Awesome for an icebreaker date or just to grab something light n sweet yet healthy.

This was my first time trying Playa Bowl and I will definitely return. They are on the pricier side but it is well worth it. They have a verity of items for every craving. I decided to go with the Electric Mermaid (Pitaya blend top with granola, kiwi, pineapple, mango, coconut flakes and honey. Sooooo good and refreshing. My daughter went with the Nutata (Pitaya blend topped with granola, banana, blueberry, coconut flakes, raw cocoa nibs and Nutella). Just plain delicious. As soon as you walk in the smell of fresh fruit makes you happy. Two bowls $23.46 but they are full to the top. I will be returning to this location for sure.

Açaí bowl

What an adorable little place. Owner LENNY is very helpful! Offer a great variety of bowls and other things, T-shirt's, hats, water bottle etc. booths ate the cutest. I ordered the tropical acai bowl and it was spot on! Right in my back yard. Clean, friendly and speak Both English and Spanish. Will be back for sure.

I was in the area by the airport and saw the high reviews of this place. First of all, the woman…read moreworking at the counter was such a ray of sunshine and had great energy so bonus points because of her. AND then I tried the food. I can't remember what it was called, but it was a fried bite of some sort with cheese and potatoes and HOLYYYY MOLLYYYY it was absolute gas. Acai bowl did what it needed to too. Overall, I was very blessed to stop here after a long flight.

I was staying nearby for business and looked on Yelp to see what was around. Snack Mania Brazilian…read moreDelights caught my eye. The name alone got me interested to see what they offer. The menu is on the counter or online. After a brief search I concluded on the cheddar and broccoli bites. I'm mostly plant based but I didn't see any completely plant based options so these were the closest I could find. I placed my order quickly as I was the only one inside and it was ready in about 5 minutes. The very friendly employee asked me if I wanted the sauce that comes with them which of course I said yes. My bites were pretty tasty and flavorful. I only got a small order as I was skeptical that they might be heavily fried in oil but I was very pleasantly surprised they were not. The outer shell if you will was soft and moist but not falling apart. The broccoli and cheddar inside was warm and well cooked. Add a dip into the sauce and it becomes even better. I definitely enjoyed my bites. The interior of the restaurant is small with some seating either to dine in or sit while you wait for your order. I found it clean and inviting albeit small, but it's New Jersey. The service was great and friendly. I made a bit of effort to get here from my hotel and would do so again as Snack Mania Brazillian Delights is definitely worth the effort.

i appreciate the freshness of the food and smoothies, it makes me feel great. the service always…read moreexcptional and ambiance is homey and comfortable in my opinion. 5/5 would recommend anyone to try!

This is a nice juice place lots of options it's a small shop with a nice vibe…read more The neighborhood is primarily Spanish which is fun to explore has lots of great shops and restaurants off of the typical tourist path. The service was odd the server seemed new and didn't speak much English and I guess my limited Spanish was really bad because she didn't seem to understand it. I wanted to get some almond milk as I'm not from here and the area is limited on vegan options. The server gave us samples of the drinks and all of them were great my kid got the strawberry banana smoothie, paid for her own and said it was heavy on the banana but good. That bananas in her smoothie were ripe and sweet. But what we sampled was very banana forward, so if bananas are not your thing this may not be the place for you. My request was where things got weird... I just wanted a cup of almond milk to take back to where we were staying for coffee there. She wanted to charge $10 for 16oz of almond milk!?! I will uber my azz to Whole Foods or spend hours hitting up the little grocers to find a $5-6 1/2 gallon of almond milk. Yes my jaw dropped she said "too much?" To stunned to speak I nodded with a slight cringe as she already had it in a cup with a sealed lid. She called the owner or manager who told her to ring it up at $2 way more reasonable. I give her a $20, she then states she has no fives as I'm staring at a five next to the ones she's counting out... um ok I'm going to say it was a communication limitation. It was awkward, I don't mind the ones but... The smoothies are banana forward the green juice we tried was a great blend! Staff interaction awkward
