    Guava smoothie
    Tyler M.

    I love the guava smoothie! One of the best smoothies I've had. Also you can order through a self-service kiosk.

    Mini Nutella bowl
    Anushka M.

    South block has become my go to smoothie bowl place in the morning! It's so easy to order through their app and pickup in store to skip the line. I always order their Nutella bowl. The mini size is the perfect quantity for me without being too filling. I've been to several locations but love the Georgetown one to start my morning. I soon need to venture out and try other items besides the Nutella bowl, but it's so delicious that I genuinely crave it in the morning. It's always busier on weekends, so I recommended placing those online orders to avoid long waits.

    Strawberry bowl, wanderlust bowl
    Isabella B.

    Tried the strawberry bowl for the first time and it was delicious! Very tropical, but not too insanely sweet. Added collagen protein which was great and barely added any taste to the bowl. Wanderlust bowl was also good and fresh. Bowls were made quickly which was great. Only gave 4 stars because the bowls can get kinda pricey - with the added protein plus tax & tip, we paid $34 for both bowls.

    One of my go-to places while I was in D.C. over the summer! This place made me fall in love with acai bowls. Their bowls were so refreshing and easy to take-out. If you are ever in Georgetown, I would definitely recommend grabbing a bowl and walking a block down to the waterfront to enjoy your acai. I would honestly recommend all of their bowls, but my favorites were the Warrior Bowl and the Magic Dragon Bowl (for all pitaya lovers).

    South Block has fresh, healthy smoothies, acai bowls, and snacks that are tasty and refreshing. Although it is quite expensive (~10 for a smoothie and ~13 for an acai bowl) the quality is definitely there.

    Mini bowl and blood orange tea
    Soumya I.

    Walked into here randomly bc we wanted a quick pick me up after walking around Georgetown. We definitely picked right! More on the expensive side but you also get what you pay for. I got the Mini Bowl $7 ( Acia, banana, almond milk topped with banana, granola and strawberry) with a Blood orange tea. Ughhh so damn good! Always a sucker for some delicious tea. They have plenty of seating outside as well as inside. So take ur pick. Tip: if you're not in the mood for huge portions opt for the Mini Bowl!! It's the perfect mid-day pick me up snack.

    1 Day Juice Cleanse
    Ronnie T.

    Excellent customer service, fresh quality juices, and in a great location! This place is my go to when it comes to doing my yearly juice cleanse. Their juices cleanse and revitalize my body leaving me feeling fresh and renewed!!

    I was surprised to discover that this juice bar shares indoor seating and an outdoor courtyard with a couple of other businesses. It's a very pretty space. The menu was pretty straightforward; pretty much all juices and smoothies unlike some juice bars which branch out a little bit more. It's definitely on the pricier end. The smoothie I got was bursting with flavor. I doubt it had much nutritional value, and the larger size was so big I might sooner not have ordered it, despite being a modest price increase over the regular for 50% more smoothie. It's a very Georgetown-y place, but not a luxury I'd be inclined to indulge in regularly.

    What a find!!! This shop is tucked away, but once you find it, you can't miss it again! The food was so refreshing and healthy. They also give you a lot of food, so I'd say the price is definitely fair. They have areas where you can sit and work or hang out with friends. Definitely recommend if you are in the area!

    PRICE: Like any typical acai or smoothie shop - it's quite pricey for a bowl or drink, averaging around $10-12 for a bowl. They have options to add extra toppings, seeds/grains, protein for +$1-2 **Chia seeds are always free! (in case you missed that on the menu) **They do not accept cash at their locations! FOOD: The fruit here is always fresh and reliably satisfying if you're looking for a meal/snack with well-balanced macro and micronutrients. Most fruits are pretty low calorie but with added granolas, nut butters, or seeds, most of these options will equate to a full meal (~500-600 calories) **They do include the nutrition facts on the menu, which is helpful for those who are interested in tracking their macros! - Warrior Bowl (519 cal) - delicious, refreshing, and filling with plenty of berries. They don't skimp on the ingredients which is great, and you can' always rely on South Block to produce some pretty instagrammable bowls. SERVICE: Quick and efficient - staff was also very friendly. ATMOSPHERE: Minimalistic, grab-n-go establishment. Perfect stop while having a day out.

    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.

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.
