Palmetto Bowl: Price: $12.95- medium
Taste: This bowl was definitely the best, out of all the other ones. The açaí had more of an icy and slushy texture that I loved, and you have the option of pairing or combining it with multiple different bases such as mango, chia seed pudding, blackberry ube, and many more, free of cost. All toppings are also included in the price, and you can mix and match with different granolas, honeys, etc.
Customer service: The customer service was good, however very slow. There were around five 5 people in line and three people on staff, and each bowl took approximately five minutes. Pretty inefficient and slow, however, the staff was nice.
Price: ⅖- expensive but larger price range than others
Taste: 5/5- excellent

Bare Bowl: Price: $13.95. The most expensive.
Taste: For the ridiculously high price I expected much more. The Cardinal is Bare Bowls most popular bowl, however I found it extremely simple with only a couple of toppings. If you wanted add-ons, which I added almond butter, it was an additional cost for each topping, around a dollar each, which was outrageous considering the base price. However, the bowl itself was good but very average which made the price the sole factor in which this bow was not worth it.
Customer service: Customer service was great. Fast-paced and organized the staff was kind in taking my orders and efficient when making my bowl. Compared to other stores, it only took two-three minutes.

Vitality Bowl: Price: $11.49
Taste: Vitality Bowls price is the same as Pressed Juicereys so I expected a similar experience. However, I enjoyed this bowl much more than Pressed. The açaí was much more flavorful and there were a lot more additional flavors like coconut milk, chocolate chips, and honey which made it much more enjoyable than Pressed.
Customer service: The efficiency of the store was good, there were only four customers in the store during lunchtime and three workers, so service was pretty fast. The staff, however, was not as warm as Bare Bowls, and appeared to be annoyed when people asked to add more toppings/açaí base.
