    Generous and tasty smoothie/acai bowls at South Block! Wasn't too busy in here - ordered at a kiosk and they started making the bowls immediately. A plus is that some "extras" like honey, chia seeds, etc. are free but you have to scroll to the bottom of the order page to add them. Friendly but quiet staff.

    I can't express how much I love this place. Last week, I was in the area on a trip and decided to stop here for breakfast... best decision I ever made. I can't stop thinking about it and I've been thinking about driving back up there just to get the peanut butter cup bowl again! It's fresh, filling, and incredibly delicious! We ordered online and picked up and the service was quick and easy. The place was very clean as well! I will be returning as soon as I possibly can.

    This was a nice addition to a hectic day! Between appointments in Arlington, I needed a place to hectically get some work done and get something to eat. I've passed South Block a few times (didn't realize it was a chain) and was happy to finally have a chance to be tempted inside. The menu is easy to read and there are great options for fruit and smoothie lovers. Wanting something with greenery, I went with the aptly named Green Bowl. It was very refreshing and very gingery! I love that bright spice root! The granola was crunchy and added great texture to the smoothie bowl mixed with bites of firm blueberries, ultra red strawberry slices, and banana. I never attempted to connect to WiFi, but I did find a corner table and had a nourishing bite while I hovered over my laptop and phone.

    Avocado Toast

    South Block was really hyped up to be by a friend and honestly I am not impressed at all. The reason might be for what I ordered but that said out of the two items in the pictures the avocado toast was really good but the mango bowl was okayish and had this overpowering flavor of something i was unable to point out. Overall - good service but not great items to make this stand out at all.

    This is a great location! The staff works fast to get orders done and they are all so friendly! The smoothie bowls are delicious! I got the warrior bowl and I felt they were generous with the toppings which was nice.

    The Nutella Bowl!!

    I drive 20 minutes to this South Block at least once a week because of how much joy it brings me. I get the same thing every time because I believe I have perfected my order, however, everything I've tried here has been delicious. I get the Nutella Bowl but add bananas. It's beautiful. If you've never had an acai or smoothie bowl, take your time to read through the ingredients to make sure you order one that you like! This location has the most accesible parking compared to the others which is why I chose this specific South Block originally. I always mobile order and have never had an issue, the employees are always super fun and kind.

    Mermaid Bowl

    I was in the office and decided to order a smoothie bowl to start my day. With a few friends, we placed an online order. I got the Mermaid Bowl. The bowl was a beautiful blue color and I couldn't stop looking at it. The picture made me so curious about the bowl so i decided to order it and try it. The description says: Pineapple Juice | Bananas | Mangos | Blue Majik | Topped With Granola | Blueberry | Strawberry | Coconut. It was super good! I would definitely order this again. I was very impressed that when i got to the store, our order was already completed and waiting for us in the fridge. It was nice to run in and out quickly. Also, I wanted to add chia seeds and they had a squirt bottle of chia seeds on the side and i was able to add as much as i wanted. Definitely a good experience and I'd like to order from here again.

    Friendly staff and amazing acai bowls! The bowls are so refreshing and the fruit tasted fresh. They were also super considerate of my allergy and washed the blender thoroughly for me. I would definitely go back!

    I was excited to get an email saying that there was a South Block opening up a few blocks from work today so I figured I had to get breakfast. It's located right next to Bash (the boxing gym) on Wilson. You can't miss it with the green logo out front. Usually when a place first opens you expect some mishaps but didn't come across that today. The whole team was super friendly and luckily there was no line so I was checked out very quick. The PB&J bowl I got was on point as it always is and I definitely plan on coming back for breakfast.

    I ordered the pink Radiance skincare smoothie, it was delicious and thick. It's got the classic strawberry and banana mix to it but the dates and maple syrup definitely sweetened it up not in an overwhelming way. There were a lot of dates chucks in the smoothie, not sure if it was intentional. It add some texture to the smoothie but they also kept on getting stuck in the straw.

    My absolute favorite smoothie and smoothie bowl spot. South block never disappoints. The consistency is perfect, the fruit is always fresh, and the flavors are much better than any other smoothie bowl place I've been to. My favorites are the almond butter bowl and the green caveman smoothie. Would love if they started offering gluten free bread for their toasts.

    Writing a review to express my immense gratitude to the staff in this store…read more I was idling my car (SUV AWD) in the alley way across the street, right by the Ukrainian Embassy. Totally inexperienced with ice and snow, I thought it would be ok. Ended up getting stuck there - tried hacking at the ice under the tires to get some traction for 30 minutes but still couldn't make it up the hill. Google search said putting some sand / salt / cat litter under the tires could help and I walked into Amorino hoping to get some salt and try that. The 2 staff who were in there were glad to help, I got about 4 cups of salt from them and spread it under the front tires, and was finally freed from my predicament. THANK YOU so much! Definitely will come back and get gelato with my friends when it gets warm.

    It's an international brand, and I've tried it elsewhere and enjoyed it. The Georgetown location is…read morea conversion of a old running store. It's kind of on the edge of the stretch, not the highest foot traffic area, but definitely one of the worst car traffic spots. They have a set of ordering kiosks, and will call you out when they're ready for your order, including the selection of flavors. I got a crepe with gelato; although it said two flavors were included they offered me three small scoops for some reason, which still wasn't a ton. Honestly just getting the basic gelato in a cone with or without a chocolate or a macaron is better. The location has two floors, and you won't hear the honking so much upstairs. Service left something to be desired; I don't begrudge anyone who works for a living but it was not as high-caliber of an experience as I've had at other Amorinos. It also matters that this isn't the best ice cream in DC or even in Georgetown, and we have local gelato as well.

I was able to adjust the sweetness level to 70%, but the ice level was fixed. It tasted fresh and the fizziness was perfect to cool off on a warm day!

Unfortunately no one said help as I came in because they were on their laptops. I went straight over to the kiosk where I decided to order a (L) lychee green tea. When I went to check out it was $10. I was definitely not expecting to spend that much but because it was so hot I thought today was the day to splurge. I will say that my drink was made pretty quickly but when I went in for the first sip the drink wasn't all the way mixed so all I tasted was green tea and it was kind of warm. Overall I'm not sure that I'll be coming back due to the prices and the lack of customer service. Other than here this chain is typically really good.
