Playa Bowls — Restaurant in Miami

This place is lowkey battling for my loyalty with another local gem I found recently—but I had to finally show some love to Playa Bowls. I’ve been a loyal fan since last fall, and honestly, it’s one of my go-to spots in Miami when I need something refreshing, energizing, and photo-worthy.

I’ve sampled a few of their smoothie bowls, but the Pure Vida Bowl (pictured here) is the one.

As someone who runs a cleaning company here in Miami (@Cleanology Cleaning Company- Miami), I appreciate places that feel clean, vibrant, and consistent and Playa has so far continually delivered on that each visit.

Keep up the good work team Playa...

The dog was overly excited, on the verge of aggressive when she started to take a large squeaking toy and began to smack the dogs to try to get her dog not to be aggressive.

She then dragged the dog away while it was barking, and it didn’t stop for several minutes and the woman was taking selfies. The girl next to me and I asked if they could remove that woman & they said she was the owner. Needless to say, never going back. Embarrassed for the employees (who seemed very good especially given the circumstance) & am blown away with how inconsiderate the owner was. Smoothy was not great - was the Dulce....

I recently visited Playa Bowls in Midtown Miami for their one year anniversary. The atmosphere is vibrant and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a healthy treat, especially after a workout. The menu offers a wide variety of delicious and nutritious options, from acai bowls to smoothies and cold brews. I tried the tide bowl, and it was packed with fresh, flavorful ingredients. The fruit toppings were perfectly ripe, and the granola added a delightful crunch. The staff were friendly and efficient, making the experience even better. They were knowledgeable about the menu and happy to make recommendations based on my preferences. Overall, Playa Bowls in Midtown Miami is a must-visit for anyone looking for a refreshing and healthy snack. I can't wait to go back and try more of...
