I was in the area and wanted someone fresh and healthy for lunch and this is where I found myself…read more I never saw a "banana base" for a bowl before, which highly intrigued me. I ordered the Olas bowl which was Banana blend topped with blueberry flax granola, banana, blueberry, coconut flakes, chia seeds, and almond butter. It was heavenly! It was so delicious and had the perfect balance of everything. Customer service was decent. I was greeted right away and the girl behind the counter was friendly. Tip- if you're using Apple Maps, it will say "you arrived" as soon as you pull into Station Yards. Just be aware that it's located on the LEFT, and not on the right as the GPS states. Yumm!

Why hasn't this Ronkonkoma Playa Bowls place gotten any reviews yet? Well hey, I'm happy to start…read morethings off and throw them the five stars they deserve. I mean I've already been here at this aesthetically beachy location at least five times and at this point it's easy to see they are legit in their bowl making abilities (and then some!). Now what is a playa bowl? Well maybe you're more familiar with SoBol açaí bowls, a company that originated on Long Island and has a location all over the place at this point. I do love me some SoBol, but oh does Playa (a New Jersey originator) take the idea of açaí and blows it up! This is really seen across their massive menu with not just açaí and pitaya bowls available, but also mango, green, oatmeal, coconut, and banana bowl bases as options. Woah. My wife has already become a true fan of the mango bowls while for myself, I've also enjoyed those, but I truly love the banana bowl bases. Yum. Playa Bowls is more than just a bowl spot though as they also boast a nice list of smoothies that are just as legit. Case in point: the orange power smoothie (orange, vanilla protein, pineapple, coconut milk) is your summer time necessity. Fruity, creamy, and delicious. What's also pretty darn tasty is their Playa cold brew. Boasting chicory coffee concentrate (something you often only find in New Orleans), Playa Bowls brews up a formidable (and icy) cup of joe. Just as important to all of this is the friendly staff and reward system/app that is used here. Though a mostly younger group of employees, they seem to dole out your order at a reasonable speed and I've yet to have any issues when ordering through that aforementioned app. The app compiles rewards and also gives you special offers which just adds to the greatness of Playa. Overall, I'm sorry to say that as good as SoBol is, Playa is just a better. It's tough to beat so many bowl bases that are equally delicious and when you throw in the smoothies, coffee, and plenty of rewards via the app, I just need to get down on the ground and start bowing to the bowls. Playa bowls, that is. Now hopefully this one five star review will get the juices flowing for others to come and experience the tastiness found here in this Ronkonkoma spot.

The young lady behind the counter had to be kind as I nearly had to be helped off of the floor after she told me the price. Not her fault of course. The smoothie was good, fruit was fresh. But never will I ever pay this much for a smoothie again as long as I live. Absolute robbery.

This is a great place to get an Açaí bowl or protein smoothie…read more My go to is their 74th street protein smoothie or just a berry açaí bowl. They have a good amount of seating but I don't really see it ever too crowded. There's a nice game you can play where if you stop a timer exactly at 10:00:00 seconds they give you free açaí bowl.

They have so many options but my favorite is the Mango Tango and then I substitute the coconut milk with oat milk and it is perfection! I have tried their acai bowls too which are delicious however I definitely lean towards their smoothies. They also have a health care professionals discount which I use when I go in, it is a nice added perk which I genuinely appreciate.

Basing this review on the take out we got from while we were at my brother in law…read more Hubs and his brother went and picked up our take out dinner and I have to say this place is very comparable from what I've had in the boroughs. First, they said the place was quiet and not crowded but the staff looked busy, continuously making food. Hubs also said the place looked very clean. My mixed chicken/lamb over rice was delish. The white sauce was very flavorful and they gave you ample meat and sauce (I did ask for extra white sauce because you should always ask for extra). Another extra was the warm pita but all in all 30 dollars for two platters (guys paid separately) isn't terrible these days. Ordering online was super easy through their website.
