Tried the tidal wave smoothie. Felt like it had no flavor, didn't like it. Also insane that it's like $10. But I've had their coconut bows and other smoothies at other locations so they do have good stuff. read more

Playa Bowls - Tidal Wave Smoothie 16oz - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - South Miami, Florida

The Acai base is really good, and the fruit on top is really fresh! I also liked how there was a lot of granola not only on top of the bowl, but also layered inside so that every bit has some crunch to it. Plus there was enough fruit to have a piece on almost every Acai spoonful. However I do think there was not nearly enough PB or strawberry jams drizzle on the bowl, and I was disappointed that this particular store was out of the PB Protein Crumble that would have normally gone on top. The person making the bowl offered a free add-on substitute to replace it, but in the end I felt like there just wasn't as much PB flavor as I would have liked. But the staff were very kind and our bowls came out really quickly. I love the decor on the inside and appreciate their diverse menu selection. read more

Playa Bowls has so many more options than your average acai spot. Because sometimes you might not even be in the mood for acai. They have several base options. I went for coconut and tried the coconut power bowl. It was protein-packed deliciousness. Naturally sweet with a tasty granola crunch. This paired well with the playola cold brew. You order at the counter and they make your order fresh. It's a nice spot to enjoy some me time or catch up with friends. I'm looking forward to returning to try one of their many other options! read more

DASIA AND HER STAFF WAS EXTREMELY RUDE!!!!! STAY AWAY!!!! Went and was not greeted after about 8 minutes the lady working there just came to the counter and looked at me. No hello, no how may I help, Nothing!!!! What I purchased was not served in abundance. Perhaps they were trying to say product? Not cool, will not go again. read more

Great customer service. The best smoothie I've ever had in my whole entire life a 10 out of 10 experience.

Not only was the food delicious strawberry matcha madness turned to happiness :) but the bowl came out as soon as I opened my laptop What specifically drew me to writing this review was the wonderful staff on tonight as I studied for my midterms I observed each of the employees behavior The girls were welcoming, always working wether it was cleaning or engaging with costumers with a friendly hi welcome with each person who walked through the door I felt their positive friendly energy radiating and that really stood out to me.

Tastes good butttt arrived and the service was bad. I walked in and there was a single person (Daisa). she didnt even acknowledge me or make any eye contact. I stood there for about 9 minutes until she finished what she was doing. At that point she moved to the register and was quiet until I made my order. Her question about my name was extremely low and I said "excuse me" then she repeated the question extremely loud. Daisa was her name and she doesnt know what customer service means, AT ALLLL I AM NOT GOING BACK TO PLAYA BOWL. read more

UM needed a a good spot near by. This açaí spot is located in Red Roads student apartments. Next to the poke place. It is a franchise with all the smoothies and bowls you would want ! The açaí bowls range from 13-16 with different bases. I went with the pura vida. I want to come back and do a combo bowl. It was absolutely delicious and refreshing. It tasted like a farmers market bowl. Super fresh ! Parking was street parking. I am definitely coming back again. read more

Lu was awesome and made my bowl super full and delicious fast! The shop was super clean and good vibes!

Love Playa Bowls - an absolute gem! I'm not even the biggest fan of Acai Bowls but am totally addicted to Playa Bowls as they offer different bases other than acai such as coconut, strawberry, and more! My favorite is the Cupids Bowl which was a special for Valentines that they are still running. The bowl has different bases mixed together, and is topped with strawberries, Nutella, granola, and coconut shavings. The vibe of the place is super fun too. Very beachy and laid back. I always order ahead through a the app and my food is always ready quickly. read more

I really loved my açai bowl! All the ingredients were so fresh. I could eat one of these a week and be a very happy gal. Also, the cost is great for what you get - big bowls with no skimping on anything! I do wish I could have sat inside. The AC was unnecessarily cold. Please make it warmer! read more

I love the açaí bowl here! I had the pura vida açaí bowl. The açaí is delicious and smooth and they also make their own granola that's tastes amazing! The service was very fast and the place is very cute and beachy. I definitely recommend this place if you are craving a great açaí bowl. read more

Playa Bowls - Pura Vida Acai Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - South Miami, Florida

ordered 3 bowls and a smoothie, waited an hour and they had served people well behind us at this point. workers were incredibly rude when asked approximate wait times. honestly was shocked by the service provided and truly the workers seemed like they would rather be anywhere else - I have worked in the food industry I am empathetic to busy hours however this was not the case as they were moving very very slow and made no attempt to apologize for the situation. read more

This is such a great spot when you want an açaí fix. I am amazed at how many options they have here. They also have a nice selection of smoothies to choose from. I've been here twice so far. The first time I tried a seasonal bowl with a mango base, and my second time I tried then electric mermaid with a pitaya base. Both were phenomenal, but I think the electric mermaid will be a go to order for me from now on. The fruit is all so fresh and delicious. The vibe here is beachy and chill. I love the artwork on the walls. Service has been quick even though it seems like they are always pretty busy between online orders and people coming in. I think the prices here are great considering the bowls are large. My electric mermaid was $13, and I paid the same price for a bowl half that size when I was in Hawaii. read more

Best acai and best prices. I love that there are a variety of bases you can choose from. It's not just a classic acaí base. I really enjoy their kale base, and they allow you to do half/half with two different bases. In my opinion, granola can make or break an acai bowl. Their granola at Playa Bowls is amazing! It's perfectly crunchy and flavorful. There are dried blueberries mixed into it which adds a nice touch. Playa Bowls has a preset menu with suggested bowls but you can also customize your own bowl from scratch which is what I usually do. The staff is friendly. They offer a nice rewards program that gives you discounts on bowls and smoothies. The one thing that I have noticed is an issue with consistency. Sometimes, my bowls will be thinner and sometimes the bowls are not filled up all the way, other times they are piled to the brim. Overall, a great place for an acai bowl (or smoothie)! read more

I wish they would take oatmeal off the menu. These poor girls have no idea how to make oatmeal. Our oatmeal's were given us and both had water so much so that I had to spoon the water out of the container. We should have known it wasn't going to be good when it took so long for us to be served. Luckily my son loved his açaí bows. Apparently they're really good at making those. Too bad the oatmeal's were so bad. read more

I love love açaí bowls and I had been dying to try this place. The decor makes me feel like I'm in Hawaii which I already love. It's located right under apartments where a lot of UM students live. Parking was a struggle here at first until I realized that you can park in the retail garage and it's free for the first hour so that's great! I loved how many options they have and they even sell their own granola. I can't remember the name of the bowl I had but it was one of the banana based ones. It was my first time trying a bowl like that and I loved it because it was like banana ice cream. Definitely coming back for more! read more

I used to love coming here and looked forward to it.l all the time! Dasia is extremely rude and unprofessional. I asked for a to-go menu so I could look at the available toppings instead of walking over to the menu on the side of the store, she replied no and made faces to the customers as I walked over to the menu. When my bowl was ready, she screamed my name at the top of her lungs. She only did this with me and said everyone else's name normal. I have also witnessed her be rude to a new employee (young black girl w/dreads - so sweet and nice) while training her. I will now only go to the location on 104th until they fire this poor result of an employee. read more

Love coming here and feeling like summer is already here. Delicious bases and always super fresh. Best bowls in town.

This was amazing! Best bowl Ive ever had in Miami! Dayana did an amazing job and it was fantastic.

I love their Coconut Craze bowl with almond butter! It's the perfect post-run treat, especially after a long jog on the beach. The coconut is so refreshing, and the almond butter adds the perfect creamy richness. It's honestly a little slice of paradise in a bowl! read more

Went once before rated it 4 stars and immediately contacted by Roxanne their manager to find out more. It's this genuine interest in the customer's experience that made me go back. So we did and the açaí bowl was perfect-- not only was the fruit, coconut flakes fresh, but the açaí itself tasted fresh and had no aftertaste. We also had the aloha smoothie and it was delicious! The portions were great. Environment again what a nice mix of people, Chris our server was genuinely nice and knowledgeable about the different things on the menu. Look forward to returning. Thanks Roxanne and Chris. read more

I wanted to treat myself today but my açaí bowl go-to had just closed. Looked around & found Playa Bowls. Was excited to try a new spot but my first time will probably be my last. Ordered the Pura Vida bowl & added almond butter. The açaí mixture itself was not bad (wasn't great either) but the granola tasted strongly of artificial sweetener! Literally tasted like those awful lil pink fake sugar packets. Blech! While the strawberries on top were good, as was the almond butter, one out of every 3 blueberries was a mush. The whole thing just did not feel fresh, natural & vibrant, exactly what I'm looking for in an açaí bowl & this was not it, sadly. read more

The Nutella açaí bowl is delicious! It has just the right amount of açaí & a decent amount of strawberries, bananas, coconut flakes, & Nutella drizzled on top. The ambience is very nice. They have some indoor seating as well as a few outdoor chairs. The majority of the customers are UM students eating there or picking up there orders to go. I went on a Thursday evening & there were about 9 people. The service was a bit slow in comparison to most other açaí bowl places, so don't go by when you're in a hurry. But the Nutella bowl was definitely worth the wait. read more

Ok pop off coral gables!!!!! This place is decorated so cute. staff is welcoming. I tried the green smoothie bowl pacific style, it had strawberries, bananas, and I believe a honey drizzle m. Very tasty. I tried their coffee for the first time because I had a coupon, I had their holiday peppermint special. very good but sugary and I had a major caffeine crash after. I would probably just stick to their perfectly curated bowls! read more
