Playa Bowls

"Today I went to the playa bowls in ridgewood and the second we walked in we knew it smelled like rotting fruit, but we figured maybe it was the garbage. We placed an order for 2 bowls (one of which had pineapple allergy restrictions), but when we received our order it was covered with pineapples. Again, giving benefit of the doubt, we kindly asked them to remake it due to the allergy. We then got the order back and drove home. Once we got home and began eating, we found a small larvae-like worm on the strawberries. Unfortunately, we were unable to contact the store, so we left an email with a description and photo. Safe to say that we were more than disappointed and honestly just grossed out. We gave them 2 tries, but the bug was the 3rd strike for us. We asked for a refund, but have not been responded to yet. Would not go here."

"I accidentally ordered the wrong item online (must have been a recent order instead of the one I wanted) and didn't notice until I received my bowl. I went back in the store and explained what I had done wrong expecting to pay for another bowl. The staff was super nice and understanding and made me a fresh bowl the way I initially wanted with no cost. They were great."

"Yesterday I went there with my family at around 8.20 pm which is 40 minutes before their closing time but they didn’t let us sit there. They told us that they are closing and that we can’t sit. Other than that it was the worst bowl I had ever had. I asked for peanut butter and almond butter but my bowl had none of them and the granola that they put was so little I had to use my glasses to see them. After all these things I still said thank you when I was picking up my order but no one even looked at my face so that was lovely too. I will not order anything from there again and I wish I didn’t tip. Thank you for this lovely experience."

"Nice atmosphere. The food is very yummy but a bit pricey. It is definitely worth it for a snack. I must say that the staff maybe the most unfriendly, negative people. They barely spoke to us, and were not nice when they did. I would definitely try this again but not this location"
