Incredible owner very kind and poor guy does everything by himself
This guy should never run a buisness . Unprofessional and rude . He just threatened me and refuse to give service after asking to wait to 10 minutes take order . He needs to be in jail for his actions .

closed during opening hours after we drove 20 min :-(
The açaí bowl was great but we got a rude comment because we decided not to tip. Totally ruined our first time experience here. We’ve never been here so typically don’t pretip places we’ve never been to or experienced the service. Definitely not coming back.

The açaí bowl was great! Highly recommend!
Great place, awesome service, delicious food!
I’ve enjoyed the açaí bowls at this location, and my wife is also a fan, but unfortunately, the service has consistently been a letdown. I’ve often overlooked minor service issues, especially given it’s clear that the owner who runs the business is overwhelmed. We’ve been patient in these situations, offering understanding when things seemed hectic. However, our most recent experience with the owner left a much more negative impression.
I placed an order online and arrived at the designated time, only to be told by the owner that my order hadn’t been started yet. I wasn’t in a rush and reassured him that I was fine with waiting the additional 20 minutes. Unfortunately, the situation took a turn when the owner expressed frustration over my decision not to tip in advance. He then proceeded to cancel my order, telling me that if I wasn’t tipping, I should take my business elsewhere, citing his “loyal customers” and rewards program as justification.
While I’m more than willing to pay for a quality product, I find it difficult to support a business where the owner treats customers with such a lack of professionalism. The attitude displayed in this interaction is exactly why I believe tips are withheld. It’s unfortunate, as the açaí bowls are good, but the overall customer experience is no longer worth it.
Love how fresh everything is!!! 😋
Extremely rude service. Asked the gentleman to give us honey to sweeten the drink and yelled at us stating we requested it to be unsweetened. Asked for an extra cup and stir stick screamed saying we don’t have any. I’ve never felt this compelled to leave a review but the gentleman was extremely rude and irritated like some other comments mentioned I will never go there again!

The service was awful. I asked a simple question and he had no clue about his business.
I inquired whether real mango fruit was used in the drinks because I didn't spot any fruit in that "tiny" shop. That's when he began to act rudely, and his behavior stemmed from his ignorance. He had no idea that there are multiple ways to make a mango-flavored drink. Let me share them with him to help expand his knowledge and stop being ignorant.
You can also use Google or AI to search for options. Sorry, but you probably don't know what Google or AI is either.
Monin MANGO
MANGO Liqueur
Pure MANGO Infused Syrup
MANGO Syrup
MANGO Ice cream
and many more…
My question was straightforward: do they make the drink with mango frut, sourced from a tree and purchased from a supermarket, meaning actual mango and not a substitute.
It's really disheartening that there are people who dislike their jobs so much. It's sad to imagine living each day having to do something you don't enjoy at all, poor guy.

The most excellent fruit, quality of Açaí bowls, excellent smoothies! So beyond amazing that I eat here everyday-best in the world and I’ve lived in metropolitan cities outside of California. I will be a patron for ever! Love the owner!

Awful service. This was my first time here and when I asked questions, the guy was so rude and seemed very annoyed. I will NEVER spend my money at this place again. Sadly, looking at the other reviews, this guy has repeatedly been rude to customers.
