RAWBRY Juice Bar, Acai & Cafe — Restaurant in Enterprise

I will preface this review with the fact that I am not an acai bowl kind of guy (in fact, I've never tried it before) - I'm more of a bacon, steak, seafood, and all other conventional type of foodie. However, I firmly believe in trying things at least once (or twice to be certain), so you have a validated opinion. I live in the far Northwest part of Las Vegas (LV), so traveling all the way to this part of the city just to try an acai bowl wouldn't normally happen. But there's a catch...my family and I received a gift at this business from our great Realtor (and friend), so of course, I had to claim it before it expired. So my wife and I visited RAWBRY around lunchtime, on 20 Jan 2025.

When we walked in, I was pleasantly surprised with the nice décor and upbeat music playing. The store wasn't packed but did have an ample amount of customers sitting and enjoying what this store has to offer. There were also a significant number of people waiting for their to-go orders which is normally a clear sign of this business' popularity, but is also a drawback with respect to wait times. Speaking of wait times, we did have to wait a while for our order (~26 minutes), which was a bummer. There were three employees working and all three of them were doing what they could (I didn't see them laughing, joking, and/or on their phones while trying to fulfill people's orders). Based on the level of detail involved with creating an acai bowl, I can understand that this isn't a quick grab-and-go type of operation. Though, I am curious if this is normal, or if I'm giving them too much credit. Perhaps I'll try another acai place in the future to compare and contrast.

We ordered the Tropical Oasis Acai Bowl, PB Bomb Acai Bowl, Drip Coffee, What's Up Doc Juice, and Chicken Pesto Sandwich w/Chips. I also tried to order the Protein Bites but they were out of it, which was unfortunate...because who doesn't enjoy a ball of goodness [unless you're allergic to peanut butter (PB)]. Since we're lovers of PB, I thought for sure the PB Bomb would be better than the Tropical Oasis, but I was sadly mistaken. Although both tasted good, the Tropical Oasis was far better in my opinion. I was thoroughly amazed at the intricate details involved with creating the bowl; it definitely wasn't just a throw all the ingredients in a bowl concept. The coffee, juice, and sandwich were great; however, I realized after the fact that my sandwich was supposed to have mozzarella - I didn't recall tasting it...also, the chicken was minimal. But the flavors in the sandwich were superb!

The ambiance was good, especially for those of the "younger" generation...although, that is not the only customers seen in this place. I was shocked to hear music with explicit lyrics playing really loud while we were in there. I was raised around that type of music so it didn't offend me; however, if you have young children and are selective to what they hear, I just want to prepare you for that. Unless, that was just a one-time ordeal...and happened to occur while we visited?

The prices were very reasonable. If you consider what you are getting for the price, it is a tremendous bargain. Overall, between the food quality, service, and atmosphere, I liked my experience here. Aside from my oatmeal intake during the week, I felt this place helped to provide some well-needed vitamins/supplements and antioxidants in my diet. I can't say I'll be back in the near future based on proximity to my residence and current weather temperatures in LV (getting an acai bowl when it's cold outside wasn't a wise choice for me), but I will recommend this place to others. I am thankful that I got to finally try the...

Overall: 4.7/5 [takeout & dine in]

Had Rawbry twice now and love it so much! They make being healthy affordable and taste good!

Blue Dream Smoothie ($9): This was delicious and sweet! Very easy to drink and the color is just beautiful to look at. This smoothie is basically the blue majik base in a drinkable form.

Iced Matcha Rose Latte with Oat Milk ($6) + Shot of Espresso ($1): I like how they don't charge extra for the milk alternative like other places do. [Side Note: It's like charging you for being lactose intolerant or for not wanting the nasty side effects that are associated with dairy (i.e. inflammation, hormonal effects, increased insulin levels).] The first few sips were really good, then it started to taste bitter. I think we drank all the rose syrup even though we mixed the drink up.

We tried two fresh juices ($9), and both were all tasty, fresh, and smooth. Flawless: This one is detox rice in fiber & antioxidants. It's made of apple, cucumber, ginger, mint, and pineapple. What's Up Doc: This is an immune booster juice made with carrot, orange, lemon, and ginger.

Acai Bowls: A medium (12 oz) is $11 while a large (16 oz) is $14 which is very affordable for acai bowls. Like the juices, you can't go wrong with any of the acai bowls but of the two I tried, I prefer the Ube-Bae just a bit more. The two we had were 100% vegan as well. Rawnchy Bowl: Bases: Açaí, Blue Majik, Chia Pudding | Fruits: Banana, Strawberry, Blueberry | Toppings: Natural Granola with whole rolled oats, Chia Seeds, Hemp Seeds, Cacao Nibs, Goji Berries | Drizzle: Agave Ube-Bae: Bases: Ube, Mango, Chia Pudding | Fruits: Banana, Pineapple, Strawberry | Toppings: Natural Granola with whole rolled oats, Cacao Nibs, Coconut Flakes |...

We initially came to try the açaí bowls, but we waited 45 min for one bowl and a coffee only, to take-away, which is absolutely crazy. The place was quite empty and the employees were extremely slow. The employee in charge of preparing the açaí bowls took an eternity, he was very relaxed and was even grabbing his phone in between the preparation, and was texting while we were looking at him waiting. Total lack of respect and professionalism! We were quite shocked. The other clients around came to ask us how long we had been waiting as it was the same for them and everyone was quite annoyed. The woman who seemed to be in charge apologized saying they had been quite busy and she was on break, it was thoughtful of her to at least apologize but unfortunately not acceptable. There were only 3 clients in the shop including us which I don’t think means being “very busy”, with 2 employees serving. Even if the bowls were very good, it is a shame the organization and service is such a mess, because we would not come back or recommend with the...
