I stumbled upon this Chicana-owned Brazilian acai cafe during one of my bike rides through Santa Cruz. I ordered the Carmen Miranda, which was the perfect blend of granola, acai, and fruit. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the menu. I'm so glad I stopped by, and I will definitely be back again!

Best smoothies in the area. My only complaint is those paper/cardboard straws are just awful. I'm all for saving the environment and the turtles and whatever but there has to be a better option than the paper straws. Halfway through the smoothie and I'm eating paper. No bueno.

A small little stop great for a delicious treat!
My partner introduced me to Acai bowls a while back, and raved about this place being so good. He is so right! The fruits are fresh and delicious, the acai is perfectly blended and sweet and tasty with the peanut butter option. I'd go here again.

As much as I love the place and it's Portuguese speaking staff the acai is just a bit too loose and wish it was more solid. But the toppings are great, it seems hard to beat kitandia.

Great place to cool down from the hot summer dry heat with a bowl of healthy and well balanced acai with hemp granola, banana and ?

Really liked this cafe. The Acai bowls were right good and so was the Yerba Mate. I loved the vibe here, it was super cool!

I love açaí (probably been to 15 different açaí places east and west coast) and this is genuinely the best I’ve ever had. Fair prices and so delicious. Support this small business! :)
