Sobol

So I don’t know who was working there November 2021-March 2022 but I tried this place for the first time ever and every single time I ordered a classic they gave me the “super” size apparently and I assumed THAT was the classic because today I got the classic and they gave me the smaller cup and I was very confused after getting the super size literally over 10 times when ordering a classic… I had walked back and asked them and they told me it was the classic. I’m mostly curious if it happened to other people because my mind is blown at how small it is for how expensive ($16) 😭 always tastes great though 😅💀

I had never had an acai bowl before this, but it was honestly amazing. It tasted better than ice cream! I was blown away by how delicious it was. I got the kid size, which was almost too filling for me. I added peanut butter, which was a slam dunk. Still can't believe how tasty this was. 100% recommend!

I always pass by this place and I decided to get some breakfast here this morning. They have a wide selection of smoothies, but I was here for the Acai bowl. The bowl comes in 3 sizes and and a standard selection of toppings - bananas, strawberry, blueberry and granola. You have the option of adding nutella, peanut butter or almond butter, etc. I chose to go with Nutella which was delicious The acai is in a chilled puree form at the bottom the bowl. This location has plenty of seating but most people this morning were ordering acai bowls to go.

Never had a bad Bowl at SoBol! SoBol is the best. Ingredients are always fresh, servings are plentiful and service is always quick. The storefront is small, but clean and well maintained. The Staff are friendly, which is always a plus. I’ve ordered at the counter and online, from Açaí Bowls to smoothies- every experience has been great. I would highly recommend!

Ever since moving to Philly three months ago, I’ve been going to Sobol in Rittenhouse on a weekly basis. This is ending today. I love the food but my recent experiences there have been horrible - primarily due to customer service. Some restaurants hire employees that are friendly and uplifting. Not Sobol - they hire people who act like they don’t want to work there. I don’t want to cast a blanket judgement on the entire staff but some of the employees I dealt with were just outright rude and I walked out on two occasions in a negative mood. Additionally, the store doesn’t respect its store hours! I walked in once 30 mins before closing time and they wouldn’t serve me. Just today, I decided to kick off the New Year with Açaí from Sobol. I ordered my food at 12pm and the employee told me that I couldn’t eat in the restaurant because they were closing at 1pm! I reiterated that the store was still open for another hour, and she said I couldn’t eat inside while she was cleaning up the store. No thanks - I’m going to Playa Bowl a block away from now on. It’s a tad bit more pricey but I’ll pay extra to avoid being in a bad mood for the rest of the day.
