Delicious acai bowls and can customize anything you want and all for one price. Will definitely come back anytime I am in Pasadena and needing some delicious acai bowl! LOVED all the nut butter options!

A great place to get your Açaí fix! Definitely easy to miss if you're not looking for it so look harder! My wife and I have been wanting to try this place for a long time since we are huge fans of Açaí in all forms. Upon entering, you are presented with a simple menu and the process is seamless. You decide whether you want a bowl or a shake. I went with an Açaí shake - chose oats, Goji berries, peanut butter (don't get this option as it overpowers the Açaí), and other options. It was really good - the perfect amount of thickness and consistency. The bowl on the other hand, was where this place shines. They do not skimp you on anything! They filled the bowl to its brim with Açaí, cacao nibs, oats, fruits, and honey. It was so delicious! The prices here are very fair and we will definitely return for another Açaí fix. Obrigado!

Nice acai place but a bit more expensive than others in the area. Nice toppings choices and staff were very friendly and helpful.

Toppings are unlimited, small size is good enough size to be filling, lots of topping options, açaí base is smooth and not too sweet! Service is good! Only one bench outside to sit at very limited seating!

Solid acai bowls with good topping options and good prices. Parking can be found around the back or the lot across the street

Nice açaí spot in a great location. Fair price for unlimited toppings! Açaí not too sweet which pairs well with the sweeter toppings

Very clean, nice staff, delicious açaí bowls with unlimited bases and toppings. What more could you ask for?

Truly cannot figure out how they make these smoothies SO SCRUMPTIOUS. Are they secretly milkshakes and I'm just fooling myself into thinking they're healthy because they shove a bunch of kale and spinach into the blenders?!? Hoping more locations open up - would love one in Highland Park or Eagle Rock!

The lack of a prep station and seeing two harried college age employees run the place was concerning. You can literally see them making a smoothie with a blender with minimal equipment. That being said the açaí bowl and smoothies are pretty solid. I also think they're a tad overpriced for the size but the toppings are various. Be prepared to wait though. I would be more inclined to come back if the store seemed to be providing more resources and support for their employees.

My favorite aspect of this açaí spot is the melted butters, THATS GREAT. The açaí was fine but not the consistency I remember while living in Brasil. I would like it less icy. The dragon fruit was light on flavor, but good none the less. Great toppings to pick from and that made it a solid 4. Service was quick and patient. I expected a little more of a vibe inside but it was basic. I’d go back, just not go out of my way to go.Happy Munchies,aVeganAndHer

Decided to come back to give another try since I really enjoyed their smoothie last time. I had a much better experience this time.

I'm new to the açaí world and have myself addicted. This açaí had absolutely no flavor to me.I kept tasting it on its own, and nothing. Do yourself a favor and go to Ubatuba Acai on Hill Street. The açaí has a rich delicious flavor (the taste of the fruit), amazingly delicious organic hemp granola and passion fruit juice!

Hands down, best bowls anywhere. Great staff. Park in back. Totally custom bowls, not too sweet, not a bunch of peanut butter mixed into the açaí. They have warm nut butters to pour on top. The best.

Bowls are delicious but customer service is lacking. I asked to sample the blue majik and the gentleman rolled his eyes and I accidentally dropped it when it was handed to me. He was almost annoyed to be helping me. Unfortunately, bc of that I will not be back.
