This place is a great local business that offers acai bowls. They are really tasty and consist of granola, honey drizzled on top, and sliced bananas. My favorite is the peanut butter bowl. My only complaint here is that I cannot afford to come here as much as I want. The bowls are extremely expensive. It's like 8 bucks for a small and they really are...small. maybe someday they can lower their prices a bit. read more

I'm going to preface this review with the understanding that they serve some amazingly delicious bowls that are a healthier choice to fast food. Visiting my first time on a weekend, the place was very busy. So much so I waited over 30 minutes for my order. I wish the staff would have informed me of the wait time. I also noticed some people coming in with no shoes on, which I thought was a health violation. Visited again this morning. Not a lot of people, but those that were there ordered a lotta food. Again, wait time was rather long especially when I was in a bit of a rush. Definitely love the food and I will be back, but they need to streamline their work and Inform customers about wait times. I just need to figure out times when they're not so backed up. read more

This place is awful it should take about 1 minute to make an acai bowl and I've been waiting 25 minutes for mine I'm mushing don't come here unless you're prepared to wait a long ass time for your order read more

I come here all the time and I love the pitaya bowls but I'm reviewing their customer service. Every time I've visited this place, they're always super rude. No matter how nice I am they always seem to have an attitude and act like its gonna kill them if I add something to my bowl. I don't mind paying extra, either. The blonde girl with braces is especially super super rude and she doesn't even greet customers when she takes their order. Please get better employees. I can tell from reviews that this isn't just a problem with me. Also, I included a picture of a message I received from one of them probably after reading my review. Nice read more

I used to love coming here but unfortunately it's gone downhill... the past few times I've gone it's been very inconsistent. I love getting the peanut butter bowl but lately it's been very runny and chunks of frozen strawberries in the blend. My bowl was half granola and only about five pieces of fresh fruit on the top. Used to get much more fruit. Won't be spending $8 for these any longer. Sad because I used to love it:( read more

My mom and I's favorite acai bowl place. Really yummy and lots of options. She normally gets the tropical pitaya and I get the spinach acai. Delicious and healthy :) read more

I have been here a few times and have had different experiences each time. Once I came and there was some sort of meeting going on in the back. I have never been at a job where the business meetings were not in a private room and it was a little uncomfortable. Overall, the atmosphere of the workers is a little too laid back for me. Maybe a uniform of some sort would help. Food is good, I love the chocolate peanut butter bowl! However, it is VERY expensive for what you get. I got two smalls today and paid eleven dollars!! Even coming from an old Starbucks employee, I think it's very overpriced. Good food though! read more

Horrible service but good food... the girl just came out and don't say a word and just stared. Until my girlfriend had to say hi first and even after my gf said hi she didn't say a word either... she seemed annoyed for us to be there. read more

I have been going to Thrive/Fresche for awhile now and LOVE the bowls! However I do not enjoy eating there at all, the place smells heavily of bleach or some chemical but is not clean?? Especially all the seating, it is stained and looks very dirty. I understand they can not control customers that make a mess but they really need to take more pride in cleaning promptly and replacing items that get destroyed. Sitting outside is also a no go as it smells of trash. I am sure there is a dumpster near by that is probably out of their control. With that said my recommendation would be to get your bowl to go and call ahead to avoid the wait. ENJOY! read more

We love this place! The acai bowls they make are kind of like smoothies with some other stuff mixed in, but they make you feel so good because they are naturally sweetened -- without any sugar. Very healthy and very tasty. read more

Acai bowls at thrive are my favorite! Especially the peanut butter one! I love that they have gluten free options too! I love this place. Sometimes service is a little slow but it's worth it read more

I love this place! I am gluten, dairy and soy intolerant. It isn't easy finding food I can eat, other than my pantry at home. This is like dessert for me, but it's healthy! It makes me feel great and feeds my sweet tooth! Only complaint I have is the wait time :/ If you're in a hurry, well, just Don't be in a hurry if you go! Totally worth it though!! read more

The smoothies were just ok. My 'gripe' is with the cleanliness of the store. Front door and windows were filthy, inside and outside trash cans were overflowing, and the seating area was a mess. All tables, some of the chairs and the floor had crumbs all over them. The girl in front didn't seem to notice or care about the mess and was busy stocking the drink case. No employees showed any sense or urgency or pride in the appearance of their work place. It was not busy at all...made me wonder what the food prep area was like. Will not return. read more

I'm in love with the taste of their bowls! Although, they take forever. #1 because they barely have anyone working and not enough equipment. Also #2 they are slow and seem as though they don't really care. Even when they have multiple people working they are just in there talking and going really slow when there are a lot of people waiting. Really a bummer. They used to give you your bowl in actual plastic bowls, but now they use paper bowls and pack everything in so tight I hate it! The only reason I go is because I love the taste. Bring back the plastic and please go faster! read more

I used to come here all the time when they first opened. I then went away and attended BYU Hawaii, and if anyone has ever been to Hawaii, they know that acai bowls are everywhere! Since returning home, I totally forgot about Thrive! until a few weeks ago, and have been returning every week since. It's very yummy and I love the convenient location, but after trying a plethora of different acai bowl places in Hawaii, I might have turned into an "acai bowl snob." A couple suggestions I would have to make this place even better would be to have a sorbet option, where the acai main part is just a little thicker of a consistency. Also, I've had better granola in my acai bowl explorations. But overall, I've had an extremely positive experience every time I've been here, and it's definitely one of my favorite places here in G-town! read more

I Loved the chocolate peanut butter bowl I ate when visiting Thrive! They have a great selection of bowls, and other yummies to choose from. My kids (who are VERY picky) LOVE going here, and cant wait for the next visit! The Staff is very friendly, and very informative in regards to Thrives other services available...check them out :) read more

This place is seriously amazing, I have been going here at least one else a week for a year and I never get sick of their food. The strawberry passion fruit bowl is my favorite. read more

Just made a date with my sister and friend to go and try this new Thrive Restaurant. Walked right up to the register (no line) and started looking at the menu. The girl at the register informed me that it would be a 25 min wait for my food if I ordered because they had online orders to fill. Ridiculous! We left. Not waiting 25 min for a $8 smoothy in a bowl, I don't care how healthy it is. read more

Love this place... Girl at the register should be a lot more personable. Great environment & food though.

So disappointed. I have been going to Genuine Fresche for 5 years. There are at least 6 Açaí/ juice places closer to my house, but I have driven farther to go here. I love the fresh ingredients! I usually have no problems with customer service, but this last time was such a horrible customer service experience that I will never go back! It was the girl's first day and she was by herself. She literally knew nothing. Not even where the written menu was. Later, while I was still waiting for our order, the owner had arrived and when I made inquiries about whether there would be any products containing gluten, I was practically scolded by her and rudely as to whether I had let the girl know about my grandson's allergy in the beginning! She indicated that she was not going to remake it! I was able to leave with a new bowl which I did not have to pay for but it was an embarrassing ands frustrating experience and I will not return! read more

Bad customer service. Weren't greeted when we came in and didn't feel very welcome at all. The girl at the register was nice and polite, but the girl who brought us our food seemed annoyed that she was there. I also work in the food industry and I know certain health codes that are supposed to be followed, and the girl was wearing sandals while preparing our food, which isn't allowed. The food is great, but the customer service isn't. read more

Love coming here for açaí bowls (the best I've tried anywhere) and they're fresche green juice!

Heard this place was cool so I hit it up, not gonna lie this is a stellar acacia bowl place (idk how to spell it). The blonde girl that was working, I think her name is riley, was super helpful and the bowl came out mad quick. Would definitely recommend. read more

Smoothie was more like an acai bowl in a cup. Super pricey for what you're getting. Will try a bowl or juice next time.

Hubby brought this back for me for breakfast one morning on a recent trip to AZ. I only have my local Vitality Bowls to compare this to, but this was good. I didn't go to the store, so can't comment on that, but hubby called me to ask if I wanted Small, Medium, Large, or Extra Large bowl and I asked for medium telling him I wanted something equivalent to the Small here at Vitality Bowls. The medium from this place was even smaller and more expensive, so they lose a star for that. However, the acai base was more flavorful than the local joint here, so score on that! I love acai bowls so this place is a great place to get healthy food and I will go back again when in the area. read more

Decent Acai bowl at a reasonable price. Very minimalist decor. Somewhat of a wait for our stuff.

Acai bowls are great and small little joint is authentic and fresh. Not the fastest if your in a hurry. The chocolate peanut butter is my favorite but they are all great. The small is very filling not sure who needs a large unless you plan to share it take home and freeze. The drinks are limited to smoothies and bottled water and tea. It would be nice to be able to order a nice coffee. They are currently remodeling to be able to have a juice bar. Been coming here since they opened and plan to continue to return. read more

I'm obsessed with this place I even bought a groupon their peanut butter chocolate acai bowl is to die for !

The bowls are very delicious and refreshing. Plus, I don't feel bad about myself afterwards like I do when I eat ice cream.

Their smoothies and bowls are delish and go great anytime of the day. They also sell quest bars (which are freaking amazing) only downfall is when they are busy you can wait anywhere from 15-30 mins to get your order. read more

I come here pretty often with friends, I love their bowls and have never been disappointed with their product. It is for that reason alone I continue to come back. That being said, the customer service almost always is sub-par. Being someone who also works in food service, I get it is not always easy to be enthusiastic about your work... but it really is EVERY time I have been here that the employees look miserable. Although it is often different people ringing me up, their poor attitude is similar. It would be a nice change to get some employees who welcome the customers when they walk through the door and act happy to be serving them. read more

I've been coming here since they open and love the original Açai bowl. It's refreshing and the honey drizzle over the fruit and granola makes it just the perfect sweetness. Sometimes I have it with oatmeal on the bottom and it really feels me up. I wish they were open on Sunday's too. read more

Great acai bowls - with gluten free granola on top. Excellent fresh pressed juices as well.

This place is awesome!! It taste very natural & very healthy. I tried the go green and my hubby had the original both were great. Forget ice cream, I've found something better and healthier. Staff was very friendly! read more

This is literally my favorite place to eat in all of Arizona! The bowls and smoothies are awesome, and the staff is great! I come here probably twice a week for lunch or post workout. I love them all, and usually get the oatmeal on the bottom of the bowl, so delicious! Great for anyone with gluten or dairy allergies too! Just ask for gluten free granola if thats what you need! read more

Yummy! My wife loves this place. I think it's a good snack. I'd probably get the free oatmeal next time to make it better.

The bowls and smoothies are great (My favorite is the tropical bowl... yum!) but the last few times we've been here we've had to wait a REALLY long time to get our food. Yesterday we sat for 35 minutes waiting for 3 smoothies and 2 bowls. My kids were so anxious to leave. There were at least 3 groups of people who came in and were told it would be 30+ minutes so they left. Not sure if they need more help or more equipment, but timeliness has been a huge issue. Other than that, I love the healthier option for a summer treat! The staff is also very polite. read more

I absolutely love the peanut butter bowl! And I don't even feel guilty about indulging :)

Acai bowls hand crafted and fresh! Love how clean this place always is, and how consistent the bowls always are. They never skimp on fruit, and the taste is always yummy! Only bummer is the wait time can get a little frustrating. read more

My husband & I love this place. We even opt for an acai bowl instead of a blizzard next door at Dairy Queen. I was a little hesitant at first trying something new but it was so worth it. It is basically a smoothie bowl topped with granola, fruit, & honey. A great way to start & end your day! read more
