Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

The bowls are really good. I am smoothie King fan, but I must say that this is a bit better. Bowls taste fresher. Not saying smoothie Kings aren’t. The all natural ingredients with no ice is excellent. I will say order ahead before coming. The wait can be a bit long, but worth it.

Chris is the man, he took care of me. South block has always been a fan favorite but it’s also my favorite. He helped me get set up with loyalty, told which smoothie was the best. George was helping him hold down the store, great vibes and healthy eats for sure. South block for the win.

I frequent other South Block locations, but I don’t come to this one off M St NW very often. The açaí bowls at South Block are always great, but unfortunately, during my recent visit to this location, there was only one person working, and he was trying to handle about 12 orders at once, which made the service much slower than usual. Normally, the service is much faster at other locations, so this was probably just an outlier. The decor inside is really nice and tropical. Despite the wait, the food was still delicious, and I’ll likely give this location another shot in the future.
