Vitality Bowls — Restaurant in Palo Alto

Won't be returning I went to this location a few years ago and remember being really disappointed. I can't remember why, but I knew I didn't like it. A few weeks ago hubbs and I went to the farmers market and didn't have breakfast, so we thought we'd stop in and check it out again. They said they had just remodeled (looked the exact same to me) so I felt like I'd give them another chance. Once again I was totally disappointed. Very expensive, even compared to Bare Bowls, and it just didn't taste that good. There were big frozen chunks in the middle of our bowl. The thing that topped it over to being really unsatisfying for me was the granola. I should have asked what kind of gluten free granola they use, but instead I just asked for gluten free instead (and I think they charge extra for it). What we got was a hopefully healthy smoothie bowl topped with sugary generic Trader Joes cereal! Yep, it was topped with panda puffs, corn flakes and puffed rice. It was so sugary and disgusting. I should have asked them to make one without "granola". My husband ate it and I ate around it and tried to avoid it. What a joke, cereal instead of granola!!!! I mean, there's a health food store down the street and they can find some locally made, organic GF granola to feature in their store. Support a local business as a local business and cross promote each other. I can't believe we paid $18 for a bowl of cereal with some fruit under it. I will not be returning and I'll take my business back to Bare Bowls or just make...

Just opened mid July 2015! It is an acai bowl spot! One of the few in the area! They have a large selection of acai bowls, a selection of different smoothies, some panini sandwiches if you want something more filling, and even grilled cheese for the kids!

If youre going there for the acai bowls for breakfast, the 20 oz should be enough for a single person. If you want to share i would recommend going for the larger size.

You can add extras of any fruit for an additional cost or even replace any of the toppings with anything you want

We had vitality bowl and the power bowl (which has broccoli!) Both were very good! The acai bowls are served in metal bowls which is pretty neat and sustainable if you eat in. If you take it to go it will be served in a paper bowl.

They were a bit pricey I'll admit $9-$13 depending on size and choice, but i guess it makes sense for Palo Alto where things are a bit pricey. You can definitely get a cheaper bowl at a place like Nekter where they charge about a couple dollars less.

Seating is a bit limited i think about 20 people can sit in the place, which makes sense because people are just in and out anyway. You may have to group tables for groups larger than 4

But overall i enjoyed the bowl and the spot is a decent place to catchup with a few friends!

I'd come back to the place if I'm in the area and craving...

Love me some açaí bowls. They have wifi here but not sure what the password is. I only needed to wait for the train so I decided to stop by and do some work. Wifi isn't publicly shown so you'll probably have to ask. Service was meh, workers don't seem like they want to be there and it shows. Though, they do remember who ordered what and deliver it to you so hard to gauge. Price is a bit high, even for acai bowls.

Warrior Bowl - strawberry banana is such a classic. I was indecisive so I figured I'd snag this one and I was very happy. Strawberries were not sweet but were not overly sour. Paired with the honey, they were tasty and juicy. Bananas were excellent, as you'd expect. With the honey, even better. Acai blend itself leaned towards the sour side, but was finely blended and smooth. Delicious and the flavor contrast with sweet granola was exciting. Would say this is a safe, consistent pick and I'd love to try other bowls in the future and see how...
