Reviews for The Pit and The Peel in Richmond, VA
Smoothie was fine. Quesadilla was so bland. Also I ordered avocado and it came on my quesadilla with the peel still on. And not... just one piece. Multiple quesadillas had avocado with peel. Read more
I frequent this location every few months and haven't had many problems here, until now. I stopped by yesterday, 8/19 for a... House Bowl. While waiting, I noticed one of the girls in the kitchen started messing with her hair before making the food. Iwanted to say something, but didn't want to come off as being "that person", so I let it go. Perhaps I shouldn't have let itgo, because sure enough, I ended up finding not 1 but 2 long strands of hair mixed in the bowl. That's disgusting. As someonewho's worked in the food business before, it should be common sense to wash your hands after touching your hair. Perhapspolicies and rules should start being enforced such as hair nets, gloves, and/or frequent hand washing upon touching one's faceor hair Read more
Inconsistent and the young girls are less than friendly. My ?açaí? house bowl tastes like a banana bowl with a splash of... açaí. It?s normally way darker. When I said something they said, ?Well there?s probably more peanut butter. It always looksthat way. There?s not any real açaí in it anyway. It?s not an açaí bowl, it?s a house bowl.? No offer to remake my $9 bowl.Learn better customer service and how to make an açaí bowl! Read more
I was very excited to try a new spot near the mall. Was having difficulty opening the doors and once I got it to open one of the... employees seemed irritated. One of the customers dining was more helpful than the workers, and they don?t even work there.Cashier lacked customer service and seemed as if she didn?t want to help us. When our order was ready we didn?t even know itwas ours due to the lack of communication. It was just handed without no say. I am not one to complain ,but this place lacks alot of customer service.

Probably.. The worst acai bowl I've ever had. The color of the acai is super off, and there were not a lot of variety in the... toppings. Your topping options were banana, granola, and chocolate chips, that's it. Also, my wife asked for freshly squuezedjuice (in the menu). They charge her, and they proceed to give her non squeezed juice and then tell her they're out. Would notcome back here, that's for sure. Read more
So I discovered The Pit and Peel on Sunday, Friday morning I was making my fifth visit. I am obsessed with acai bowls! So I'm... a little over the top "extra" and I love to have things my way; especially food because I am a big time foodie. Luckily for methere's a wonderful young lady by the name of Emily who works there who has been very patient and kind to me. She is absolutelydelightful, charismatic, and meticulous. She carefully composes my bowl with all the ingredients I want the way that I wantthem. When my family and friends come to visit I will bringing them to The Pit and Peel and hopefully they enjoy a deliciousbowl and meet the lovely Emily, she is clearly part of the ambience. ??????????

Their smoothies are pretty decent but it depends which one you get. I got one that had a bit too much going on. Decided try... their food this time so I ordered an avocado toast with salmon (there?s a surcharge to add it) and a soup. The lady took awhile to make it? longer than expected. However, the avocado toast was surprisingly good. The guacamole was fresh and there wasa generous amount. I liked that it had hard boiled eggs on top which were cut in half and peppered. The soup was okay yet itnot what I expected (reminded me of a chili). We got to dine inside although that might have changed. There?s limited seatinginside; nice aesthetics. For a healthier food place it?s alright overall. Read more
