★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Aaron Ortiz · Jan 2026

I’ve given Playa Bowls multiple chances, but unfortunately my order is almost always wrong. Whether it’s missing toppings, incorrect bases, or substitutions I didn’t ask for, there always seems to be an issue. For the price you pay, accuracy should not be this inconsistent. It’s frustrating to get home and realize the bowl isn’t what you ordered, especially when you’re expecting something specific. I really like the concept and flavors, but the constant order mistakes make it hard to keep coming back. Better attention to detail and quality control is definitely needed.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Barney Boy · Aug 2024

The atmosphere had a nice summer vibe which I liked the staff working was pretty nice had some nice seating. The food was pretty good the containers were a little small than I thought they would be but maybe there are bigger sizes? Overall pretty good. they only gave us one spoon when we ordered two bowls so that was a little disappointing.

The mango did not melt down to hard for my liking. Too much nettella overall it was a miss for me. I had better bowls that were great. My husband had the Acai bowl he enjoyed his hes a Mickey he will eat anything!!! His bowl was very wet and nelted down.

Delicious my bowl of acai! It is a nice place that I visited 3 times in a week I was in that city. They have different youth teams every day. They are attentive only that it takes a long time to deliver their order. Every time I went I could see that only one person is preparing the orders. The others are standing talking by phone… others are cutting fruit for a short time and sitting down. But it seems incorrect that only one is preparing the orders when there are 5 or 6 people waiting. I wish they could improve in this and so everything would be better and we wouldn’t have to wait 30 minutes to receive our orders. Nevertheless it is a good place and that’s why we visited them several times in that week.

This was our first time going there so first my daughter and I ordered 2 fruit bowl and a smoothie to try. When we received our order, I asked my daughter to try it. She said she loved it so I decided to order 2 more fruit bowls for my other 2 children. The service was fast. The fruit bowls and smoothie were delicious. I took pictures of only 3 bowls and half of the smoothie because my daughter was half way finished with her bowl when I thought about taking pictures. 😅😂😋
