    The ac wasn't running when I came here... the line was long so I ended up going back to my hotel and ordering for pickup cause I'm lazy and didn't wanna wait. My acai bowl seemed to be ready quickly and I went to pick it up and the staff was nice... this place is pricey (maybe that's the norm for New York) it was tasty and delicious and I did know the price before I ordered (since I ordered online and submitted the order). I would probably find somewhere else if I wanted another acai bowl since this one was so pricey but the convenience to the hotel was nice.

    I love their açaí bowls with strawberry and banana. Great sized portion. Super fresh. I also love their peanut butter smoothie with protein. Get the 20 oz size, the 16 oz will leave you wanting more. I ordered ahead and when I arrived my bowl was in the fridge kept cold. Super fast! The location is small but cute. Love coming here and ordering ahead for delivery.

    Fav is the pure vida and Nutella bowls. Healthy for my kid. They offer pirata bowls, green bowls and coconut bowls. They are a pretty penny at $11+ but we paying for the clean surface, blender and fresh clean ingredients. Service is pretty fast. The bananas and strawberries are nicely sliced. Feel inside is cool lighting (fluorescent) and a pop vibe. Not meant to just hang out here - eat and run.

    This is probably my top chain for acai bowls. I love when acai bowl bases are sorbet-like. Do know that it can be a bit pricey. I was looking for a healthy afternoon snack and this was near my hotel. As one does when in NYC, we had a lot of delicious food, but not all of it was the healthiest. I loved being able to add some tasty fruit in my diet on my trip. There was plenty of seating available inside. There was one single gender neutral bathroom stall that needed a door code. The people who worked here were really sweet and kind. I got the pura vida bowl and added some almond butter and cocoa nibs which came out to a little over $20. I highly recommend checking this spot out for a tasty fruity snack.

    Tropical Acai Bowl

    AND Beach Bowls they are! I fell in love with the Açaí bowl concept years ago on a trip to Aruba before the concept was even thought of here in the states. I can say the Tropical Bowl(+blueberry, strawberry, chia seeds) I ordered definitely created the nostalgia of my time on the island. Playa Bowls creates some pretty tasty, fresh, and healthy fruit bowls. They have a wide array of different toppings to add to a choice of 6 bases (açaí, banana, kale, coconut, mango, and pitaya) They also offer a variety of smoothies, cold pressed juices, and cold brew/ frozen coffee blends. FYI you will spend at least $16 for a bowl but definitely worth the splurge. The storefront is bright, beachy, and inviting. The customer service is great. Perfect healthier treat option.

    I want to like this more but my god $19 for an açaí bowl. It's like $16.95 then after tax you get to that higher number. I understand it's midtown nyc but damn. Bright place, good ingredients but wish they'd lower the prices a bit. Nearly $1 extra to use a CC? Really? It's 2025.

    Juice Generation is one of those places you can't miss - you know what you're going to get and the…read morequality is decent. I decided to check out this location while walking nearby. The storefront on 9th avenue is very small with very limited seating but the vibes are great. The staff is helpful in letting me know what the menu has to offer. The fresh pressed juices are good and I love how the smoothies don't have any added sugar. Something else to note is that they do have food options - they're limited but there's still a decent chunk to choose from. Plus they come with protein too. I liked how my bowl had all the fixings and the pastry was "guilt-free" The prices are a bit hefty but for fresh juice and a yummy sweet treat, I'd be back for more.

    Did this look at all like the bright yellow and purple smoothie on the billboard outside? No, not…read morereally but that's fine. - i'm OK with the false advertising because it was super tasty and blended perfectly. No weird chunks or icy slushy vibes. - this is the rise and grind that has chocolate protein powder, almond milk, açai, cocoa powder, a banana and some random roots lol - despite the ingredients it was so nutty. I think it was the combination of the banana and chocolate. It was delicious. The little fruity sips I would get of the açai paired perfectly with the more savory dense banana and chocolate base. - the prices aren't horrific but I don't love that there is just one size. Like 13 dollars for a smoothie with protein - the service was speedy!
