    Strawberry Cloud Smoothie
    Caitlin D.

    Tried the strawberry cloud smoothie -- allegedly an intended dupe for the Erehwon Hailey Bieber smoothie. It doesnt fully live up to that hype, but it is a great smoothie and a solid East Coast option if you're craving it!

    Delicious smoothie, pretty reasonably priced. They have vegetarian protein, collagen, and whey protein additives you can choose from. The strawberry cloud smoothie was delicious. I loved the coco whip. Service was quick, you can order on the iPad in the front.

    I found it helpful that there was a juice bar at Union Market because my stomach was not in great shape for solid food. The bowl I got here satisfied, but didn't quite fill the container. For the price, I could have done better at home. The menu also isn't broad; most of these places, even if focused on fruit-based creations, offer a little more variety.

    açaí

    Behind on my reviews again, but had to shout this one out -- I loved the açaí here. Not too sweet and so good I went back for it twice while I was in DC! They also have smoothies that are basically Erewhon dupes.

    mango mania
    Chyna Q.

    Purchased a mango mania and subbed the bananas for strawberries-- 20/10. So refreshing and delicious. It is also a fairly large portion, I could barely finish. I love a smoothie place that doesn't add 18822928 dairy products. This is a real smoothie and I will be back!

    I've patronized this location many times and the last time I went will for sure be the final time. Ordered my smoothie bowl through the app. Went to pickup dark long haired employee bumped me and didn't apologize . Picked my order up went home saw it didn't look right went back and said excuse me 5 times and was ignored till finally was helped. They offered to remake it and was in the process when the same girl that bumped me earlier gonna say "you paying for something" instead of saying hey have you been helped or picking up" since I'm in the pickup area is disgusting will not be returning. Not worth the treatment . I added a picture of how my bowl looked this time vs previously

    Mango Sunshine Bowl

    First time visitor and tried the mango sunshine bowl. Wow! A perfect smoothie bowl with no complaints! The fruit was sweet, mango smoothie blend was delicious, granola had the perfect amount of sweetness, it was also crunchy and very tasty! No agave was needed for this bowl but I'm sure if I added it, it would be over the top for sweetness (which I actually wouldn't have minded) but it was perfect the way it was presented. I love that the sizes are huge for the bowls, the many options they have on the menu is a plus especially for a vegan. Look forward to trying more bowls. Service was fast, employees were nice and helpful. Seating is ample indoor and outdoor at the market until it gets crowded. This place is absolutely worth the hype it receives!

    Loved the entire experience. Ordered myself, walked around and them picked it up in the fridge. I absolutely love acai bowls and this one has set the bar way up. So perfectly stacked and filled. If I lived by here I would be eating it for dinner every night

    Date of service: 3.1.25 Ambiance: it's Union Market Food: OHH-MM-GG I bought three Warrior bowls but only one was for me. Apparently if you tell people you're going there, you instantly get money sent to you for theirs too ! But I can definitely see why! It was absolutely delicious. The perfectly blended frozen fruit at the bottom and the overloaded top with your choice of fresh fruit is so good! I added extra bananas and agave nectar YUMMY! The portion size is enough to share with someone but who would want to? This bowl was $11.95! Great value for this beautiful bowl! I can now see why my teenage daughter and her friends love this place. Highly recommend

    I love their Peanut Blast Bowl. I add whey protein and nutella. The service is always friendly, and quick with a smile. The ambiance is always inspiring and uplifting.

    If you are in this area and not getting you açaí bowls from south block then idk what you are doing!! No complaints! Love how I can add how much honey I want to it personally. Shout out to the workers at this location. Keeping a smile on their faces as they work in a busy food hall on a Saturday!!

    My friend and I were at Union Market and decided the smoothie bowls sounded nice on a warm day. They have a few screens you can order your food from. It took a bit to get our order but it was a busy Sunday. They will text you when your order is ready though, so you can find a seat and wait for your order is ready text. There is plenty of seating inside and outside, we sat outside and enjoyed the warm weather. My friend and I shared the Sunshine Bowl smoothie bowl and it was very good. All the flavors worked well together and they were generous with the fruit and granola on top.

    My friend and I stopped in here after hours of exploring Cherry Blossoms and Bloomaroo at the Wharf…read more- it was late afternoon on a very busy Saturday. We hoped to find a place that offered decaf coffee since it was late in the day, but really wanted something warm since it was a bit chilly outside. Unfortunately, this location of Toastique does not offer decaf - they only have a single hopper for their coffee, so it is not an offering. We were going to find another place, however, they said how about a hot chocolate or a tea. My friend is vegan and inquired if their hot cocoa was vegan, as most places have dairy in the chocolate. The cashier went to look at the chocolate syrup and also had another person look at it to verify it's vegan. My friend ordered a hot chocolate with oat milk. Even though it was busy, we only waited about 5 minutes for her drink. We appreciated the effort to double check it was vegan, though I do wish they had decaf options.

    Toastique is a small spot with a clear focus on pricey, health-forward food. From the photos, it…read morelooked good, and I went in expecting it to be expensive, but still wanted it to feel like a treat. I ordered a toast to go. The toast itself was hard to eat. The bread was too chewy, which made it difficult to bite off because there was no proper angle of attack since the toast was large. With that many toppings, it really should have been pre-cut, especially for a takeout order. I could not even cut it properly with the plastic knife they gave. Flavor-wise, it was fine but underwhelming. The salmon was good, and everything seemed fresh, but the overall balance felt off. The cucumbers were plain, and the toast leaned dry, like it needed more sauce or spread to bring it together. For $18, it felt like a ratios problem more than a quality problem. Overall, it is not bad, but I left a little underwhelmed given the price.

Oftentimes, I don't get enough "crunch" in my acai bowls, so I was very pleased and satisfied with the crunchy texture of this bowl. The granola is homemade and has some chopped nuts (which I believe are almonds), and they added a really nice nutty/savory flavor to the bowl, making it feel more filling. Half (chicken) sandwich and half (mushroom) soup is a good deal. Nothing particularly mind-blowing about these foods, but the soup was hot, and the sandwich warm and satiating. The soup was a bit thin and could be thicker, but the flavors, slightly peppery and salty, were satisfying enough. Service was good and quick. There is a cute patio in the back of the cafe, with plenty of tables and chairs.

The smoothie was great too, with its nice blend of coffee, banana, chocolate and almond milk. This place is a must visit!
