I heard some great things about this place from Brazilian friends that live in the area so decided…read moreto check it out for a dessert. There seemed to be many homeless people hanging out on the street outside the place when we visited. They have a few parking spots and that was good. Place was busy when we walked in and continued to be busy throughout our visit as we decided to have our dessert at the place. Information was written in Portuguese but workers spoke English and were very helpful. I went with a passion fruit mousse. It was very rich and sweet. I had about 1/4 and that was enough for me for the day. I took the rest home to enjoy another time.

Their Fancy Grilled Cheese (Gruyere cheese, bacon, tomato, avocado on ciabatta) is something…read morespecial. I get it without bacon - it doesn't even need it. The bread it's served on is so good, and it's grilled to perfection. I'm obsessed with this sandwich and wish I lived closer! Oh, put your order in online - they take a while to prepare. I'd put the order in at least 10 minutes out.

Everyone radiates such a positive energy. The inside is so Zen and comforting. I got the innocent bowl and it was amazing ! It was very flavorful and filling you can split the bowl for two meals in my opinion . If you're ever not feeling well order anything off the menu you will immediately feel nourished and energized .

Nice clean, healthy atmosphere with much needed refreshing menu alternatives to all of the pizza, burgers, and sub places.

Stopped by Playa Bowls in a newer shopping center next to the gym, which makes perfect sense for…read morethis kind of spot. Outside was super clean, and the inside had a really cool vibe and atmosphere. The menu was surprisingly extensive with lots of different options, especially if you want something other than a standard açaí base. They had mango, coconut, and several other base choices that made it feel a little more unique than most bowl places. The cashier was super friendly and helpful with recommendations. I ended up getting the seasonal Mermaid Mood Bowl. I wasn't a huge fan of the Nutella option on it, but they were very accommodating with substitutions and recommended swapping it out for peanut butter instead, which worked really well with the bowl. I do have to say, I agree with another review that the base is definitely icy/watery, kinda weird. Overall, pretty solid bowl for the price. Good portion size, fresh ingredients, and a nice balance overall. The Mermaid Mood Bowl was good for the most part, and overall this feels like a spot I'll come back to again 4.3/5

We were given a gift card to the Pressed Cafe, so that is what brought us in to try the cafe…read more We were surprised that it took us twice to drive around the lot before we could find a parking spot. Once inside we were greeted right away and seated immediately by the friendly bartender at the front bar area. He was very helpful and not pushy. The menu was much larger than I thought it would be. Once we were ready to order the bartender came over and took our order. The food came out very quickly even though the restaurant seemed pretty full. We both thought the food was very good. We did not buy any of their pastries but they looked very good in the display cases in the rear of the cafe. I would recommend this cafe and we plan to visit again in the future.
