The blue wellness (blue spirulina, pineapple, banana, almond butter, date, coconut cream, hemp heart, and almond milk) is my favorite smoothie, I always get protein added for an after-workout snack. The acai bowl is a must try, it's so fresh and flavorful. They also have coffee, breakfast dishes and salads. The service is always top tier here, I'm always greeted by a friendly face. Deeky who works there is the best, she always takes her time to explain different menu items to me and gives great recommendations. The vibe is always peaceful, you can grab something to go or dine in. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Located in the CBD so be prepared to pay for parking.

Let me explain my 5 star rating. I'm not saying that this restaurant is deserving of a Michelin…read moreaward (although I wouldn't be opposed to it ). My rating is based on this dish the avocado toast and arugula salad and that for the price, which is reasonable... I can't imagine a better version of avocado toast. This does lead me to believe that their attention to detail and their menu probably transfers to their other menu items. The service and ambiance is exceptional as well. Highly recommend

They are not cheap, but the ingredients are fresh and free of garbage and dyes, so for me, the extra few dollars is worth it, and they have an app / rewards program, which helps.

Inside was nice and cool which is great especially for these hot summer days. The Playa bowls were delicious. We got the CocoPower bowl, Playa Passion Bowl, and Goldie mango bowl. All of the bowls were made delicious by Lena. The fruits and flavors were definitely refreshing. It's rare these days to encounter such genuine customer service. Definitely a 5-star visit -- highly recommend! It definitely meets the macros for a post workout meal!

My companion got a frozen coffee and she said it was to die for. That means it was good! Definately my go to from now on and I have to drive about 25 minutes, but it is so worth it. The only thing it lacks are intimate little nooks. But you can't have everything. However, the place was spotlessly clean, including the restroom and that was all gender. You looking for a place to call yours, this is it. The owner was on premises and went out of her way to speak with every patron and made sure their order was perfect. Try it you'll like it! I went back for the Pride Parade and went in for a water. Huge line moved fast and again when she put my name on my order, 5 items, she remembered my name. Now that's pretty damn good.
