South Block Expands to Tenleytown with Free Acai Bowls for Opening Day Guests
Tenleytown is about to get a whole lot sweeter and healthier. South Block, the Northern Virginia-born brand famous for its handcrafted acai bowls and fresh smoothies, is opening its newest restaurant in Washington, DC. Located in the vibrant Tenleytown neighborhood, the new spot opens its doors on Saturday, July 11, bringing its signature healthy treats to an area celebrated for its great walkability and energetic city vibe.
To celebrate the big day, the team is throwing a grand opening celebration that you won’t want to miss. The festivities kick off at 11:00 a.m., and the first 100 people in line will score a free Mini Warrior Acai Bowl along with exclusive brand swag. If you manage to be one of the first 50 guests in line, you’ll also walk away with a limited-edition cloth tote bag.
Building Connections in the New South Block Neighborhood
For the brand, expanding into this specific area is all about connecting with the active, close-knit local community.
“What drew us to Tenleytown was the sense that people here genuinely love and enjoy the neighborhood,” says Amir Mostafavi, CEO and founder of South Block. “There’s movement throughout the day, but it never loses that personal feel. You see students heading to class, families out walking and longtime locals returning to beloved shops again and again, and that’s exactly the kind of connection we hope to build with South Block.”
Fueling Your Summer Days with Fresh, Nutritious Options
Whether you’re running between classes or out for a family walk, the menu is packed with made-to-order options to keep you energized. Everything is crafted using fresh fruits and organic, fair-trade acai. You can beat the summer heat with popular staples like the signature Warrior Bowl, the Strawberry Cloud Smoothie, the Super Green Smoothie, and the savory Almond Butter Bowl. They’ll also serve their full lineup of juices, toasts, and protein-packed drinks designed to fuel your busy days on the go.
The brand has built a massive, loyal following thanks to its core mission of making people feel awesome one block at a time by spreading good vibes and serving nutritious food. This new restaurant marks the brand’s 26th location across Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina.
The shop will be open Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m., and Saturdays and Sundays from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. If you’re looking for more details or want to find another restaurant closer to you, head over to SouthBlock.com.
