Naturewell

On holiday and felt like an Acai Bowl. Found this little place on Unilocal and though I’d give it a try. The Acai Bowl was delicious! Great value for money. Staff were extremely friendly as well.

THe best place for healthy, quick eats. Everyone here to so attentive and amazing! Delicious food and amazing juices and smoothies. I come multiple times a week

Another stop on my acai bowl tour… It’s a little different, where they hand you a container, you put your choice of granola flavor at the bottom and they take care of the rest. The acai bowl itself is pretty good… the usual: acai, blended with bananas, topped with strawberries and bananas and more granola on top. The portion could have been larger if it wants to compete with my fav (Earthbar) and the parking can be difficult (meter only).

Very refreshing juice. You will definitely taste the original flavors of each ingredient. You won’t taste the artificial sweetener as others. The ginger is fresh juiced and you can feel the power of the ginger that can refresh your mind. The price is very decent and the people there are friendly too. Just need to look for a parking.

It’s my first time here and I love it… I tried the Tony’s Special and it’s soooo delicious I will definitely be back and the staff was very helpful and generous. I highly recommend

Don’t understand the hype at all. My experience is likely the result of coming into the store at an earlier hour. There was no attendant behind the counter and it took a little while to find someone to help serve me and my friend. I ordered an acai bowl which came out extremely watery and the person behind the counter failed to mention a self serve granola bar, so I ended up paying 8.50 for a diluted cup of acai. Before I could come back and ask for a change in my order, the attendant had disappeared again.

This place has some of the best smoothies I’ve ever had. The coconut kale one is phenomenal. i also had one of the raw vegan wraps and WOW, me and my friend could not stop talking about how good everything was. I tried her smoothie and wrap, and they were just as good. You can literally taste the quality and fresh ingredients! Thank you for using Organic! Big big plus!
Also, I love that if you check-​in you get a tasty little health shot. So Yum. The people who work here are super nice and friendly, excellent customer service. 5 STARS
I can’t wait to go back.

I am adding a second review because I just came back for another smoothie and Salvador made my night. Such a sweetheart. Good good vibes. Love love this place.

The Best place on Melrose for smoothies and organic foods. Quick service and great staff as well.

Really friendly! The environment feels good: upbeat and positive.
Getting a Patiya bowl: it’s topped w granola (you get to chose and mix and match which kinds you want), strawberries, banana, and blueberry. Yum!
First time here and already hoping to be back soon.

Amazing costumer service !!
The smoothies are filling and delicious. My favorite is the super acai smoothie made with real apple and no sugar added ! Juices are also custom made which is rare to find.

Best prices and by far the best juices in the Hollywood area.
My husband and I started this juice diet and I have lost 6 lbs. in one week.
Not only they are very nutritious but also very tasty.

Tried the Acai Bowl for $ 8.50. They have a self-​serve granola bar to customize your own granola to the bowl, then they add the acai and a goood chunk of fruits on top.
I thought the granola was really dry, because the acai didn’t quite immerse throughout the entire bowl. The parts played separately, and I know it can be better. But great staff!!!

Naturewell has a great central location on Melrose with a loading zone meter right in front of their shop — I was in-​and-​out quick so it worked out perfectly!
I checked-​in and received the complementary Facemelter… It was super delicious and totally original! The oil of oregano added a great boost of flavor and the heat was sharp but didn’t last long. I highly recommend trying it out.
My acai bowl was presented beautifully but tasted just OK. The blend didn’t have great fruity flavor and was pretty bland. The blueberries were also mushy, probably because they were thawed from being frozen and not fresh. The agave syrup was really great though — thick, sweet & probably my favorite ever! I also really liked their granola bar, where you customize your order and blend as many kinds as you like.
Service was 5 stars — the gentleman who made my bowl was super welcoming and helpful. Service alone (plus that amazing Facemelter) will definitely bring me back to Naturewell when I’m in the area. Their smoothies look delicious, and I think I just ordered wrong this time around.

The best juice bar in LA by far! Their prices are great 20oz for 6 and some change. We ordered the life line and the anti-​virus and we received 2 free facemelters for checking in with Unilocal.Thank you :-) I liked the anti-​virus better because of the ginger. Our whole experience was great & Neil was phenomenal!!! I would definitely come back…

Great service! I tried a Tony’s special, and got it with vanilla granola. First time I’ve ever had a smoothie with granola in it.
I looked around a bit while the girls ahead of me were getting their wheatgrass shots… they have lots of beverages, lots of granola flavors and lots of healthy snacks.
The smoothie was exactly what i needed in between a HIIT class and a hot yoga class!

Most of the juice bars I’ve been to are decorated nicely, but this place looks kind of janky so I was a bit sketched out when I walked in. But the servers were really nice and welcoming so that made me feel much better. Naturewell also sells a lot of other healthy snacks so it’s also like a grocery store as well.
I got an Acai Bowl and checked in on Unilocal for a free ginger wellness shot (facemelter).

If you dine-​in, the acai bowl is served in a cute glass bowl, and if you take out it’s just a regular paper bowl. I wanted to have this baby look nice for the insta so I dined-​in :P The presentation is gorgeous! I mean just look at it, the strawberries and bananas are neatly placed – I could tell the server took time to make it look the way it does. I love that I could pick my own granola – I took the bowl to the granola area and they have 6 options available for me to mix and match. I chose the coconut almond granola in the end because I wanted whole almonds in my bowl for extra texture and because almonds are delicious. The server recommended me to fill about ¹⁄₃ of the bowl with granola but said if I want more I was welcome to do so, it just means that my bowl will have less acai. The agave on top was really interesting because most agave on acai bowls are more watery and thus not really noticeable, but this one was THICK. And by thick I mean THICK – like super chewy. I really liked it this way actually! The one thing I thought was weird were the blue berries. The blue berries were definitely not fresh because they were chewy – kind of like gummy candies. For a moment I doubted these were blueberries so I had to double check the menu to make sure they weren’t some other fruit, but they were really blueberries… odd. I’ve never had blueberries that are like this and I didn’t really like it, it was weird. Maybe because they were pre-​packaged frozen blueberries? Hopefully Naturewell can start using fresh blueberries instead. The portion was also quite small – I had this for lunch and it wasn’t quite enough.

This wellness shot is made from ginger, cayenne pepper, oregano oil, and lemon. And I’m not kidding, this is super intense and spicy – in a good way though. After drinking it I felt the ginger burning my throat and stomach. Most other ginger wellness shots don’t have the oregano oil, so it’s an interesting addition. I didn’t taste the oil or anything but I wonder what it’s for – added health benefits, perhaps?
I saw a sign that says if you give this place a 5 star rating you get a free juice or smoothie, which probably explains why this place has such high ratings even though the items here were just average. I want to write an honest review so hence the 3 stars – overall this place is okay and I wouldn’t mind coming back but I’ve had much better acai bowls else where.

I absolutely love this place. The juicers are amazing and extremely informative. They are polite and patient (we are new to juicing and healthiness). Not to mention, our first time in my mom got her smoothie on the house because there was a bit of a wait. Excellent customer service.
Might I add, they make the most bad ass açai bowls in town. And I’m not just talking for my health. I actually mean it. I’ve been to whole foods for an açai bowl, and the acai was so watery, barely cold, and seemed to have some traces of oil throughout. THESE AÇAI BOWLS AT NATUREWELL are perfectly blended to a thick perfection and packed with so. many berries and goodies.
I’m there almost everyday now getting an açai bowl with FRENCH VANILLA granola (they have many flavors of granola to choose from)
I 100% recommend this spot for all your juicing and healthy eats.

I could see why this place has five stars.
Came in to get an acai bowl, and was pleasantly surprised at the service and what was offered. The cashiers were very helpful and knowledgable in what they offered, and helped us out with our selections. For the acai bowl, we got to pick our own granola from the wide selection they had on the side. We mixed the raisin one and the fruit granola. Wish we put more though because there wasn’t enough! Afterwards, the guy ensured that we were okay with all toppings and fruit, to which we were.
After paying and receiving our acai, we were extremely satisfied with the bowl. The guy had artfully placed all of the fruit, and everything tasted just as good as it looked. The acai was viscous and full of flavor, and with all of the toppings, it was delicious. Only minor thing is that the strawberries aren’t cut into slices, so you have to either bite it or cut it yourself with the spoon.
Don’t forget to check in for a free facemelter shot! My face did melt… it had oil of oregeno, ginger, cayan pepper, and lemon. It was so spicy and gingery… but I heard it’s good for you so definitely try it!

This by far is my most favorite place to get my good dose of healthy juicing! Called to make sure they don’t close before we got there and Cindy waited for our group! She was so kind and also laughed at my joke
Got the healthy heart juice cause my heart was broken tonight~ cheered me right up :) thanks for the great juice, smiles and service Cindy!

Anti-​virus my favorite…
Coconut cardamome for something softer and delicious…
Always smiling people and funny time there.
Definitely a place to go.
Be healthy!!!

OK, I’ll be honest. I initially came into Naturewell because it was a sweltering day in LA and I wanted to go somewhere with AC while I waited for my Über. But in my defense I ended up patronizing this great little business and am paying it forward with this positive review!
I wasn’t in the mood for a green juice, so I went with the coconut cardamom smoothie. I was hoping it wouldn’t be too heavy on the cardamom as it sometimes overpowers other flavors… turns out it was a great balance.
There are tons of other healthy options in this store, from bars to cookies to wellness shots. It’s not somewhere I could visit on the daily because it’s pretty darn pricey, but I don’t think these guys are trying to rip anyone off — organic healthy stuff like this doesn’t come cheap.
I liked that the owner was so friendly and chatted with all of the customers… and that he let me hover around their small counter area until my car came to rescue me from the 100 degree heat.
Thanks Naturewell, you helped make my day cool and coconutty!
