Vitality Bowls is an 800 – 1200 sq. ft. Superfood Café focused on delivering top-quality Açaí Bowls, smoothies, fresh juices, salads, wraps, and toasts. Combining the world’s most nutrient-dense superfood ingredients into a neatly packaged fast-casual concept, Vitality Bowls provides delicious, energizing meals, completely filler-free and focused on eliminating allergen cross-contact. We never use filler ingredients like ice, frozen yogurt, added sugar, or artificial preservatives, ensuring the purest taste and most natural experience in every flavor-packed bite. Instead, our bowls and other good-and-good-for-you products are made-to-order with the widest selection of superfood ingredients in the industry.
Roy and Tara Gilad founded Vitality Bowls in 2011 in San Ramon, California to create a casual, comfortable place where their daughter Ella who suffers from severe food allergies could find the healthiest ingredients on the planet in an allergy-friendly environment. Vitality Bowls was created out of a strong, personal commitment to healthy eating. Our mission? To bring health and wellness to every community across the country through fresh, high-quality superfoods.
