“River Cafe is this small glass-walled cafe with lots of outdoor seating. It has cute decorations inside and is centrally located near shops and close to downtown. I went there for coffee and tea with my family after lunch, but we will definitely be back for the momos (dumplings!) because those look FIRE! The service was super friendly and professional too! River Cafe may have to be in my family's restaurant "rotation" because we love dumplings!“

“On the way back from a quick gym sesh to my apartment u decided to make a pit stop at Cruz Creamery out of curiosity as I've always passed by while going to and from the gym. Inside it's big and spacious with lots of seating arrangements for the enjoyment of your sweet treat of choice. What caught my attention was the very large selection of fruity sorbets. After taking a glimpse at all of the ice cream flavors, the worker let me know that they also serve frozen yogurt. I'm a hoe for yogurtland so this was exactly what i needed to cure my cravings. The flavors i chose weee the chocolate and peanut butter frozen yogurts. The only thing i found disappointing was that the chocolate came out in a thinner melted consistency than the peanut butter flavor. The best part about frozen yogurt for me has to be the toppings and they have all of the classic favorite toppings such as, popping boba, fresh fruit, crushed candy, and you dven get the option of a syrup that you can drizzle over on top of everything. I can't wait to visit again and try more of what they have to offer.“

MeloMelo Kava Bar Juice • $$
1101 Pacific Ave suite d, Santa Cruz

“Interesting experience worth a try at least once. The young lady bartender on a Sunday night was better than the young guy with glasses. I tried 2 kava drinks and didn’t really feel much. The cacao hot drink with habanero (does not come with kava) was tasty though! Dog friendly ?“

Island Bowl

“Four stars with the potential for 5 stars. Went on a whim today for a quick post workout mini meal. It's located on Portola right next to 'Over the Hill Saloon'. Do NOT use the Saloon parking lot. There are a handful of spots on the street and lots more if you turn down 38th and walk the half block back. It's a large indoor space that I feel could be utilized better, although it does make it feel roomy. It was a beautiful day so I enjoyed my açaí bowl outside. There is also a taco truck outside if you're with someone who isn't into açaí or smoothies. I had the 420 bowl, I forgot to tell them no honey so it was a little sweet for my preference. I was a little disappointed that it came in a plastic togo container. Being just a few blocks from the ocean I would expect something more sustainable. It would be wonderful if they switched to a corn based compostable plastic or paper. I would love to see protein powder as an add on too. It's pretty standard for açaí places and I was a little disappointed they didn't offer it (especially since I had just completed a workout). The woman who took my order was quick and efficient, there wasn't much chit chat - it was definitely more 'take your order'. I would love to see this place adjust those few things I mentioned or consider them. I think both options would be a crowd pleaser. I live closer to Samba Rock so they will still be my go to but I'm glad I tried this for when I'm on that side of town.“
