Do not go here, manager is horrible uses poor judgement, time management, and doesn't have the best interest in making her Cusotmers happy. On top of that it looks like she made my bowls blindfolded. $20 for a split smoothie bowl that was literally bite sized...I can't believe that they let this lady manage a store, bad attitude, on her computer when I walked in instead of having my bowl ready when I ordered online and horrible food presentation. Will not be back. Ever.

Self-service, convenient location. The Dragonfruit bowl came out perfectly balanced, dripping with deliciousness. Honestly, it was the best acai bowl I've ever had.

Im not sure why this place doesnt have better reviews. Pricing is not crazy. In SF it would be like $16 each for medium container (which is small in sf) but here it was $9 each plus $1 add ons for the smaller container. I loved that there was an extra small size - i didn't want to waste any and i knew the kid size was enough for me. You can order from a screen and you dont wait long. There are tons of options or you can create your own. There are two tables outside. I will for sure return.

The bowls were excellent. I didn’t even know they had a store in the area, but I popped in with a friend and we were so glad we found it.

A little pricey, but good quality açaí bowl. Plenty of parking as well, and seating area outside.

Staff is fantastic and bowls are yummy. Grab one at least twice per week.

Some of the best açaí bowls in town use the Sambazon brand açaí. It is the best of the best that there is. But, the açaí bowls here, leave something to be desired. They don't really do anything with the açaí in the bowls, it's just scooped out. Some of the best bowls blend it with something, but it is what it is. The bowl was okay, I've had different ones here and at the ballpark. It will fulfill the craving if you are here, but I would drive a little further and get one that will blow you away.

Husband got the PB açaí bowl- had the tiniest amount of peanut butter I've seen. Less than a teaspoon, this is the third time it's happened

Easily one of my favorite smoothie/bowl places. You can order online, from the computer inside, or in person. Everything is fresh and delicious and the employees are fast and friendly. Only thing is that they put orders that are ready right on the counter where people order so you have to reach around other customers to get your order even though they have a giant counter to the left of the ordering place. So when you're ordering, there's always people saying "excuse me" and reaching around you to grab their order. But that's literally the only thing. 5 stars for my favorite smoothie place! Can also sit outside and enjoy people watching and the nice weather.

Like an Açaí store, this actual Sambazon is the best in Cardiff. When I'm in San Diego visiting my Mom, this is definitely always a visit.This time before I left, I took with me a cooler full of Açaí, energy drinks, and a few bags for making smoothies.

Bad açaí with missing toppings, long wait times and poor quality

Very delicious bowls and they take the time to make them look good as well. Even though they were quite busy and didn't have enough employees (only 2 serving about 20 people) they didn't just slap it together and call it good. All the ingredients were fresh and yummy.

The quality has gone down and the price has gone up. They are stingy with the toppings, and I barely got any honey. Don’t waste your money on this overpriced garbagio. Your better off making this at
