I heard about this place from a friend and it’s near my work so I thought I would check it out.
I’m always up for trying something new and love healthy food.
I tried a coconut bowl with Nutella swirled over strawberries and banana on top. (Not sure which bowl it was. It’s a little confusing how many different options there are. The coconut base was recommended to me).
The quality of the food was excellent- very fresh!!
Environment is really fun. The decorations are nice. Kind of feels like you’re in San Diego or something.
The people working there are very friendly.
I liked the way the bowl I ordered tasted, it was very sweet, and, like I said before the ingredients very fresh. The coconut base tasted like a coconut sorbet. The portion was large. Really too much for me to eat and it was very very sweet, I am a registered dietitian and I love sweets, I am in no way against eating sugar or treats, but this was just a little much for me. I think if I were to shop here again, I would split a bowl with someone and it would be a dessert, not a snack or a meal. I’m wondering if there are ways to make it a little less sugary and higher in protein, so it could be a meal replacement on an active day at work.
I did see the protein bites in the cooler, but I couldn’t read the ingredients on the label. It was very small. Also I love chia pudding and am bad at making it. Whole Foods used to sell it but no longer and the only place around here I know to buy it is La Qchara in Melrose. I would buy chia pudding here if that was on the menu.

This is a really great spot. My family likes açaí but I much prefer the coconut bowl. The fruits are always fresh and everything takes great. They also have great customer service. There was an error with my order but I didn’t realize until I got home. They were so kind they even gave me a refund. Truly, this is a great gem - great pricing and love the variety of the menu.
