I just paid $ 7 for a chunky «coco mocha» smoothie. Took 10 minutes and they were busy… Usually I get their bowls and they are bomb though! To each your own. As far as Marcys comment, I appreciate your response, I was talking about the ice as well. Like I said, your bowls are very good, probably won’t get that shake again though!

I really like these bowls. They have a large variety to choose from. Satisfies me like a meal would, plus tastes great. Only complaint is have is that the pineapple is usually frozen, and hurts my teeth, so I avoid the bowls with pineapple.

It’s pretty frustrating when the staff lets you know they have punch cards only after you’ve literally ordered well over 30 bowls in the last month. Yeah, that’s not an exaggeration. If this wasn’t the only location I’ve ever found that offers an acai bowl with strictly acai sorbet as the base, I wouldn’t be coming back.

BEST place to grab an acai bowl. they have so many flavors to choose from and they’re all so yummy! my favorite is strawberry passion with coconut chips. they have so many different add ins and the options are endless. not to mention they have great smoothies and power shakes as well! their customer service is stellar and they’re always so nice! I would recommend calling in or placing your order online, as they make everything fresh and made to order. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for an acai bowl!

Great customer service with a nice environment. It’s in a nice quiet place of Gilbert. Employees are so friendly. And our «call in» order was brought out in less than 10mins. This is the best place to go to if you have a sweet tooth but still want to stay healthy.

I have loved everything Ive gotten from here. Delicious acai bowls (peanut butter is my favorite) that you can customize to fit your diet. They are always friendly and and helpful when ordering. Cost is on the high side but they do offer frequent deals if you follow on Instagram and other social media. Also if it’s busy the wait time can be a little long.

I’m going to preface this review with the understanding that they serve some amazingly delicious bowls that are a healthier choice to fast food.
Visiting my first time on a weekend, the place was very busy. So much so I waited over 30 minutes for my order. I wish the staff would have informed me of the wait time. I also noticed some people coming in with no shoes on, which I thought was a health violation.
Visited again this morning. Not a lot of people, but those that were there ordered a lotta food. Again, wait time was rather long especially when I was in a bit of a rush.
Definitely love the food and I will be back, but they need to streamline their work and Inform customers about wait times. I just need to figure out times when they’re not so backed up.

Acai bowls at thrive are my favorite! Especially the peanut butter one! I love that they have gluten free options too! I love this place. Sometimes service is a little slow but it’s worth it

So good. I feel like a new man after eating this. But sometimes it does give me the runs but it’s so worth it.
Only complaint is the cost. It is a bit pricey, but I guess all acai bowls are expensive. You get what you pay for. And they have other products as well which is nice.
I like it

Love this place for their smoothie bowls! The cherry almond is the GREATEST! it’s a little pricey, but worth it, especially if it’s in place of a meal! Look for groupon deals.

I have come here a few time with my wife and we love it. I was in yesterday ¾/​16 and ordered an original bowl. As I was eating it was super runny and not what I expected. I was skeptical about bringing it up to the employees because I hadn’t had that bowl before and thought that it should have been that way but did anyway since the worst they could say is that’s the way it’s supposed to be. Also I t’s always awkward when you have to complain and the employees seemed shocked that I did. I probably would have just eaten my bowl the way it was and not come back for a while but this experience had me wanting to go back! I waited for a new bowl and the girl who brought it out was awesome! She apologized and said that isn’t how it should be. She even gave me a gift card. This place turned a bad experience in to a good one and we will definitely be back soon!

I love the bowls! But this is a review on customer service. Please tell me why it took 20 minutes to make a to go Acai bowl when I was the only customer there? I positioned myself so I could see the staff in the back, and they were just giggling and laughing, obviously taking their time. I couldn’t imagine coming here during a busier time.

So id been hearing a lot of hype about this place recently and since I’m trying to be healthier I thought I’d try it out! I ordered the original acai bowl and since I don’t like granola I substituted it for coconut and also added goji berries and let me tell you it was fabulous! The only downside is i did have to wait a bit but it was well worth it because you really can tell everything is super fresh and really that’s all I can about. I will definitely be making the drive out to this place again.

So glad I discovered this place! The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is due to the size of this place. Great service, amazing bowls but man, the soccer moms with their brood running around screaming really killed the mood.

Now called Genuine Fresche, it looks like they’ve expanded their offerings. Yay!
This morning, I went in and got a Go Green bowl. While I was there, the employees were preparing a massive order (20 or so bowls). A guy stormed out after complaining about how long he was waiting to get his order, even though the girl at the front patiently explained that they had a couple of huge orders. While I think the customer in question was kind of a drama queen about the wait, it would have been smart for the employees to warn him beforehand. Otherwise, the employees were really friendly.
I wasn’t in a rush, and I got my bowl in a reasonable time– about 10 minutes. It was awesome. I would definitely return to Genuine Fresche if I’m ever hungry and in Gilbert!

Is a thank you or a smile too much to ask of an employee when someone visits a business? Very disappointing that service is not required anymore from someone taking my money. Not sure I will be back. The drink was OK but the appreciation of a customer was not there.

This place is awesome when it comes to healthy eating. I’m not really a fan of healthy food so when it makes it taste more like a dessert, I was super happy! I got the peanut butter and it was fantastic. The portion are also really good. For $ 5.00, I was really full and satisfied with what I had. The customer service wasn’t the best, they weren’t too friendly, hence the –1 star. Other than that, it was a cool place. There are a lot of tables to sit and chat as well, and there are tables outside too. I will be coming again!
