So, I drove over an hour to gift someone their favorite acai bowl. The restaurant was small but peaceful—almost zen-like. While I confirmed her preferences over the phone, the cashier, a young, friendly, and professional gentleman patiently assisted me, explaining the toppings and confirming the order. I was especially surprised how well the staff handled the sudden rush; a second gentleman quickly manned the other register. Just as the crowd dissipated, a woman walks into the restaurant and immediately shifts the atmosphere. "Why are there two of you at the register?! I need you guys being productive, clean the windows, pick up trash outside the parking lot..." She continued complaining as she walked behind the counter to the back. We (the customers) could hear her screaming at her employees. I was embarrassed for them because a manager should never speak in such an unprofessional manner. Before I left, I decided to express my dismay. I asked one of the cashiers to identify the woman, and shockingly, SHE WAS THE OWNER! 😲 In disbelief, I still kindly asked to speak with her. He left his post to fetch her. Twenty seconds later, the cashier returned. He murmured, "she said is it something important because she's busy?" I was flabbergasted! I opted not to push the issue. Instead, I have decided to share my experience here on Google. My reviews have been viewed over 35 million times, but I'll tell you, I've NEVER had such a disappointing experience at a smoothie spot. The acai bowl itself was actually great, but her attitude left a bitter taste in my mouth that I won't forget. I hope she learns to treat others with respect. What an experience!

Best bowls ever! The line doesn’t bother me because it is great, and I love to see black people doing well while they serve the community! I also have wonderful conversations with others that are just as addicted to the bowls as I am 😩😂. Bowls are always fresh! I have been at both locations and the truck in downtown Atlanta. The bowls have a feel good aura about them! You always feel great after eating one! Go and take a friend or two!

My husband and I decided to try this spot out yesterday 10/8/24 and we were so pleased with our experience ! The bowls are HUGE (which we thought made it fair with the $pricing$ /14.50 for a bowl) , plentiful with fruits, açaí and all the other fixings. I got the cookie butter swirl açaí bowl 😋and my husband got the dragon fruit açaí bowl 😋. Both were DELIGHTFUL, full and FRESH (most importantly). The gentleman that helped us at the register was kind and patient with us since it was our first time ordering there. We waited maybe about 10 mins for the bowls to be prepared. Once we were presented with them, we were in awe lol and couldn’t wait to take a bite in the car. We All in all, 10/10- DEF RECOMMEND 🩷! We’ll def be back! THANK YOU BLENDZ FRIENDZ!
