    Electric Mermaid Pitaya Bowl Dawn Patrol Juice
    Stephanie G.

    Got an electric Mermaid bowl and it was sooooo good . I cannot tell you how the customer service is as I ordered it for delivery but I think this may be my new favorite thing to eat for breakfast . Also had the dawn patrol justice which was yummy

    Service was cool. Gentlemen who made the bowl did a terrible job. Barely gave me any Nutella. I paid extra for peanut butter and gave me a dab of it. And also gave me these hugely cut strawberries that barely fit in the spoon they provided me. I've had better and they need to be trained better and actually fill up the bowl and not be cheap. Never coming back. Location on 86th st is way better.

    This place is my go-to for a healthy snack. The menu is extensive with so many delicious options. Everything here is fresh, nutritious, and full of flavor. My favorite bowls are Pure Vida, Coco Berry, Dragonberry. I also like their smoothies, fruit juices, and oatmeal bowls. The portion sizes are good and reasonably filling. The service is fast and the location is convenient next to the #1 train station.

    Nutella Acai Bowl

    Great açaí, a little pricey but I thought it was still good! A reasonable amount of Nutella

    Melted açaí bowls. Very sad.

    We had the worst experience. After spending all day moving we went on a hot day to pick up three bowls for dinner. Inside the AC was broken so it was sweltering. We order, then get the food and walk just three blocks home. All of the bowls were melted and were messy soup. Ok that's bad, but we couldn't even enjoy that because it still tasted terrible. Almost like a bad margarita mix it was super sweet and artificial. None of us could finish our meals so this was $50+ literally down the drain. Will never go back.

    Playa's finally moving further uptown! Im on a personal mission to visit all the Playa locations in NYC so I was so happy that this one popped up. I love how much seating they have in here. It's pretty spacious! Got the tropical bowl with no pineapples and added peanut butter! Delicious as I expected.

    Custom Açaí Bowl

    So many fresh and delicious options! Staff is friendly, and everything is made to order. Very generous portions, and vibes transport you from NYCs grey skies to sunny LA beaches.

    Fall 2023 specials!

    I love Playa Bowls; the staff is always friendly, the service is quick, and the store is consistently clean. Last time I went, I brought my dog and they gave her a pup cup which is their banana base with peanut butter on top!

    Pink Power Pitaya Bowl

    A refreshing Acai or really any bowl spot! Got the Pink Power delivered and the bowl was still fresh and chilled. Wanted to try something different with the Pink Power Pitaya bowl! The base had just the right amount of acidity and sweetness (less berry like than açaí). The granola added a great crunch. Overall, I would order from here again!

    The work area looks awful.

    Service needs improvement. The product is good but loses appeal when you're forced to deal with poor customer service and you actually watch your order being prepared in an unclean area.

    Realistically I just love an açaí bowl. DEF better than Loco Coco. I like their base açaí a lot and it's the best treat on a hot day. Line today was crazy long though I just turned around.

    Terrible smoothies that use freezer burned fruit. Also very disorganized service. Very bad!

    More expensive compared to other locations in NYC. Plus they don't put in as much effort in presentation.
