The acai bowls here have the FRESHEST fruit. Honestly, they are better than acai bowls I've had in Maui. And the girls that work here are super friendly and hardworking.

I had no complaints about the quality of the product, just didn’t enjoy opening the box of my sandwich to see not one hair but 3 hairs within the sandwich. I ended up not eating that half of the sandwich and inspected the other piece which thankfully didn’t have any hair. Do better guys, my first impression of this place is this??I’ve worked in food service so I know how easily this could’ve been avoided. Definitely won’t be coming back, this was just careless behavior because there was no rush as no other customers walked in as I ordered or waited for the order to be ready. $10 for a sandwich with multiple hairs between the slices of turkey is CRAZYYY

We used to love this place and drive way out of our way to get acai here as it was my kiddos fave.
I say used to because we will not be going back.
Not only have prices been creeping up over the past few months, but now they are nickel and dime-ing like crazy.
Guys in front of me - their bowl wasn't made the way they were expecting. The girl said that it had already been made so she won't remake it unless they pay for 2.
I can't have strawberries and was asked if I wanted different fruit. The one I wanted is now an extra charge. I ordered the same thing I've been ordering for over a year and have never had an extra charge.
Girl behind me was asked what other toppings she wanted. She answered and was told, oh, that's extra. If it's extra, why ask?!
I didn't see any signs up about everything being an extra upcharge now.
I explained this is frustrating and asked the person working if it could get back To management this is ridiculous. Her respo se was, you can try to call but managers are never here.
So honestly- I'm never going back.

I love their smoothies and bowls!!! Love that I can customize them or just pick from their options (they have a bunch) but for sone reason the thing I love the most about this place is their turkey sandwich!!!! Idk it’s a simple sandwich yet it’s by far my favorite thing to order when I’m in the area.

I’m thrilled with this super delicious and healthy spot! I ordered the Roots Bowl that came topped with nut butter, tons of banana and strawberries, coconut flakes, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, and I added hemp hearts. It’s fully customizable as are all of their menu options - it’s wonderful to have so many vegan options on one menu!
So delicious and many options to choose from to customize your

It's like health ice cream for breakfast and the portions for the prices are amazing!! Sometimes the wait is long due to Uber/door dash/etc...

This place is good when they get your order right. This is the third time I’ve gotten an order wrong when ordering delivery. Some people have allergies and food sensitivities. Be mindful of that. Your lack of competence is inconvenient.

Got the 1904 bowl, great taste but everytime I've gone they're out of something.

The smoothies and bowls are good but every time I’ve tried to go and grab a smoothie on my way to work (between 8 and 8:30) they’ve been closed even though their hours say they open at 8. Frustrating ☹️
