The Neighborhood San Luis Obispo Reviews
So great to have another healthy option in SLO! I usually get the Mexi Breakfast Bowl, with an extra egg, and it’s so good and filling. The Pico de Gallo is pretty weak, so you might need to add some hot sauce, if you like it hotter, like me. The smoothies are amazing! Lots of indoor or outdoor seating options in the Market. Overall, a great place to get some healthy food and enjoy the space.
Great spot and food items, my wrap wasn’t very good. I couldn’t tell if I just don’t like that type of food, it needed to be warmed more or what so it still was a good overall experience. Just won’t order the spicy vegan wrap with green tortilla. The ginger shot was a intense and delicious option. Pricing was about what you expect from healthy food places in slo. Staff was really friendly.
Came here for an Acai bowl. The location made it easy to spot so we stopped for an afternoon snack. Shared a large bowl with my kiddos and enjoyed it so much. Will return.
Great place for a healthy snack in this really nice open air area in the SLO Public Market. Their salads are really refreshing on a hot day and are tasty. The help save wasted food via the Too Good to Go program as well. Service at all of their places is very nice & polite.
They’re a perfect fit at the public market. The açaí bowls are great, and I’m happy to learn they have more than smoothies and juice… I’ll be back to try their food as well!
Excellent juice highly recommend and quicky quick
Food is delicious and service is great!

This place never disappoints me! Even when the wifi is down! Their staff is always super friendly and very helpful when trying to decide what to choose from their delicious menu! Reward points rack up very fast and you can redeem them for some swag or their wellness shots that are 💣.com
Their acai bowls there the best in town, Don't have tons of added sugar or honey.
Very nice place! The staff is very friendly!!! I really love the smoothies and the bowls are amazing!!
A wee bit slow but they are making some fresh items and that takes time. Delicious food.
Not sure why you wouldn't give this place 5 stars
One of my favorite spots in SLO, healthy options, and refreshing smoothies/bowls. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Garlic noodles, and morro bowl are my go-to options. Appreciate y'all :)

We enjoy coming here for their açaí bowls on a nice day. You can choose your size and the 24oz one is very filling! This time we got the Mustang and Spooner’s Cove bowls. Decent pricing and good flavors. You can add protein for $1 extra. Have not tried anything else on menu besides their bowls.

Went to see Riff Tide play there yesterday. Happened to try their product and really enjoyed it. Very nutritious, soothing, great taste, and very reasonable price. Excellent quality and location. I'll go back for more!!
Love the food but suffers with sloppy and lackadaisical service

It’s a cute place, but I wasn’t a huge fan of the acai. It was a little too watery for my liking.

I have been here twice now...both times the device is very slow. I work in hospitality and customer service and when someone walks in you acknowledge them at least. I have made blended drinks and wraps and there is no excuse to hear the door bell jingle and NOT say, "Hey Welcome in! I'll be right with you!" It makes the wait for service less bothersome because at least you know they know you're there. The first time I came in I waited was not acknowledged for over 5 minutes then a woman cut me in line because she thought I was waiting for my food and that I had already ordered. I just left after that because it was frustrating. Then today I decided to give it a go again because I really wanted healthy food. The food was great but the service was a test of patience again. I'll still come back but the girls working in there are very immature when it comes to customer satisfaction and maybe need someone with more confidence and experience in charge.

FYI they don’t continue to make acai bowls until they close. Their employees “turn off the blenders” early. Like don’t post your hours as closing at 5 if you’re going to stop serving before that
