The bowls and smoothies are very fresh and delicious. The service is marvelous and the location is convenient. This might be my new go-to for the healthy treats when I'm in the Town.

The absolute best açaí bowls 😍 my wife and I are obsessed. The peanut butter & jelly bowl and the jungle bowl are our favorites. So fresh and delicious!

Let me say Jon and RJ live up to the name. These two were jumping out orders for lunch like crazy. As someone who works with teams I was impressed how Jon dedicated himself to wash ALL the dishes while RJ took orders. My bowl was delicious and they got to it as quickly as possible.

big smoothies made with good ingredients for a good price + good customer service use to go to drink thicc but this place has more options and indoor seating

M
Majale Jameson

What can I say I love this place and the two young African American men that work there and make my orders every time I come by they are fast efficient and have a great customer service. They are clean and pay attention to detail and they make my bowl so pretty and tasty every single time it's a little pricey but worth it for the quality of service. Parking is terrible and your car might get broken into. I generally grab my food and go.

I ordered the chai’s mystique and it was so good! It hit the spot on this sunny day. Rj and John handled business and gave great service while it was super busy. Definitely recommend!

Hands down this is my fav place to visit is beyond what I expected it to be, health wise it’s the best thing I can give my body as I needed it and taste wise is out of this world and ingredients are perfectly matched for better results

Carlos Maldonado

I love açaí bowls for years now and this place makes one of my favorite bowls which is Beach Bowl. I like that they use the actual real fruit in their mixes. Best one I had in CA so far. 🙌🏽

I
Inga

I absolutely love this spot! The owners are a young Black couple who are so nice and the customer service is excellent. I encourage everyone to patronize this business and keep the dollar circulating in our community. Their juice bar and bowls are very good and healthy! Let's keep them in business!!!

R
Rachel

Wonderful find! The açaí base is flavorful and fresh. So much better than Vitality Bowl. I also recommend the homemade peanut butter as a topper 😎

Mr. Taylor

The peanut butter ball things were a great snack! I also got the "hangover" smoothie, which you absolutely can order even without a hangover, and it was yummy and big for the price! I felt good after this lunch.

Love love love! The bowls here are super fresh tasting and such a good breakfast or pick me up rain or shine. I order ahead online so I can pick it up super quick and then go people watch at the lake while eating my bowl. Love that they also serve La Colombe coffee, which makes it a nice one stop cafe.

We went in the other day and the place was fantastic, sweet staff, available space to sit and amazing acai bowls! We ordered this time around, and it didn't disappoint. Please try them out!

Yummy! I had the tasty Aloha smoothie with low-fat frozen yogurt added for lunch today! I was struggling to get through my morning and now I am gliding back into work this afternoon with the freshness of a calming island breeze filled with the delicious scents of tropical fruits. This family run business is truly a neighborhood fixture beloved by the community. The staff offer folks a greeting from over the counter as repeat and new customers come in - even if they are in the middle of making an order! We also appreciate the location - which is just a couple blocks from Snow Park - where we decided to sit by the lake. We recommend this spot for your smoothie and frozen fruit bowl fix!!

Once again, had a delicious Powerball here at Rush Bowls in Oakland located at the corner of Webster and 17th St. i’ve been coming here for more than two years and have been spoiled by their excellent bowls.

I cant even find the words to describe how AWESOME THIS place is and how incredible this bowl I had today for my 1st time at that too. The young woman who helped me decide on what to get was sooo helpful as well. 1/21/24! I signed for the rewards as well! Please go! I had ordered the very first bowl on the menu its Called “Beach” I added pineapple mixed in mines as well as chia and flax seeds! This bowl was sooooo delicious! Ill be back!

I've been here once now and it was a good visit. It took a while for me to get my Beach bowl, but I saw the two staff members making everything from scratch - worth it! I added strawberries as the add-on ingredient. Only negative was that I didn't see or taste the honey on top or the guava juice. But the bowl was chilly, not super sweet and delicious! Perfect for a light summer lunch. I'll definitely be back to try different bowls and mixes on top.

My friend and I came in and ordered beach bowls which were delicious! Owen helped us out with the recommendation and was super friendly, will be coming here again.

I highly, HIGHLY recommend this place. The bowls here are not only incredibly fresh but also absolutely beautiful to look at, which makes the experience even better. They offer a great variety of bowls, including endurance, destination, and wellness bowls, so there’s always something that fits whatever I’m in the mood for. I love coming here after a workout to grab a bowl and add some protein, but sometimes I’ll stop by just for a dessert-style bowl—it really just depends on how I’m feeling. I love being able to customize and create different variations of bowls. I’ve been coming here off and on since they opened and have always had great experiences. The staff is very welcoming and helpful with suggestions if you’re unsure what to order. I also really love their rewards program, where you earn points on every purchase and sometimes receive coupons—it honestly feels like getting cash back and definitely makes me want to come back more often. I was even able to find and apply coupons to my order. Shoutout to Johnathan, John, and Kirsten for providing great customer service—they’re always friendly, go above and beyond, and very patient. I love the music choice as well. The only thing I’d hope for in the future is slightly extended hours, but overall this place is a favorite of mine.

The staff here are so welcoming and fun! The bowls and smoothies are delicious - I’ve tried all of the bowls and a few smoothies and my favorites are: Bravocado bowl and Super protein shake.

I came in yesterday and had a lovely experience! Loved my bowl and had great service from the young man with red hair and freckles (I think his name was Owen!). I highly recommend Rush Bowls to anyone who enjoys a healthy treat, and will definitely be back again soon to try that Berry Fresh Bowl!

I love coming to Rush Bowl in downtown Oakland. I always received exquisite service. Today Owen and Jonathan went above and beyond. They made it a point to make sure my order was completely correct and exactly how I like it. Thank you I'll be back again!!

They have a variety of fruit bowls and smoothies to choose from. Refreshing during a hot summer day. Toppings can be added for a buck each.

Got the oasis for $12 and the smoothie just tasted like juice it was too sweet and kind of thin. The granola was good because it had some other toppings like seeds in it Only two tables outside and a couple inside so I’d plan to walk to snow park or somewhere else to eat. Especially because it’s so loud in the shop (expected since they make smoothies though)

A
Alysha Veney

I ordered togo was satisfied with my bowl. However, it's so many options It became overwhelming a lot of the words they have on the descriptions are letting you know what's mixed in with the acai already and then add A toppings. More than one becomes extra per. Still was good. Just really gotta be in the mood.

Service has improved since the last time I was in. Really awesome service! Acai bowl is only okay though, doesn't taste as much like real acai as other places. Tastes very overly sweet, processed, unnatural. Seems like a lot of added sugar? Even the granola and coconut toppings seemed too sweet. And I love sweet stuff. But it's still food so whatever

R
Ronnie Smith

It does taste good but something about the necessity of froyo in the smoothie bowl kinda kills the purpose. I’d rather go get ice cream. Without the froyo the flavor just isn’t there

Y
Yinka O

Nice-looking menu and great customer service. However, the base and bowl are so watery that it does not taste like quality. Once it starts melting, it becomes watery. I think they should use better quality milk and remove the large quantity of water. However, it was there when we needed it

L
Lillian Cartwright

really terrible quality. probably never returning to this chain. way overpriced for some manufactured juice that tastes like it's from costco. service was nice

Employees on today’s closing shift were so rude and seemed uninterested in the job. i could go on and explain but I won’t. I come here too often to feel unwelcomed. i’ve never seen those two individuals working there. either way, horrible addition to the team 01/28/2026
