I had an incredible coffee here. The patio is perfect for a quick bite or catching up over coffee the staff were friendly and everything looked delicious.
Best I ever had. Very affordable for regulars. Great sized bowl
Quaint lil spot. Great brekky tacos
AMAZING I got the Mac
Great bowls
Love these
Felt like I was at the beach! Energetic service.
Super cozy spot! I always try to go early to relax and enjoy my bowl. Love that Mamaka is adding new drinks—tried the Iced Blueberry Latte and it was amazing. All the bowls are great, but if it’s your first time, go for the classic Açaí. I also had the “Pura Vida” and “Ohana”—super fresh and delicious. Perfect after a workout or when you need something refreshing!
Lovely cozy environment I’ve visited five times within past week and a half, fresh fruit is good here ! but i ordered a smoothie to try something different this visit and the smoothie was very very melted down and runny consistency it was more like a juice Than anything except i got the Pipeline smoothie option so it tasted more like a peanut butter drink but it looks like chocolate milk in the cup 🥲😅i drank it but will choose to stick with bowl options instead of a smoothie if this is the end result of said “smoothie”
First timer. Decided to give the Mamaka bowl a try. Lots of options that can be made as a smoothie or bowl. Blenders are loud making it challenging to ask questions/engage in any real dialogue with the staff.
Fruit topping was extremely fresh. I didn’t love the granola….it seemed to have a strong peanut butter flavor (obviously that’s more personal preference). Wait time was approximately 10 min.
There’s no place to sit inside but ample patio seating.

I recently tried Mamaka’s açaí bowls, and they are absolutely incredible! The flavors are so fresh, and the toppings are perfectly balanced. It’s clear they use high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the care that goes into each bowl. Whether you’re looking for a healthy snack or a delicious treat, Mamaka delivers every time. Highly recommend to anyone craving a tasty and refreshing bowl!
I cannot say enough about Mamaka Bowls! From the moment you walk in, you are greeted by the most friendly, kind, and professional young crew I have ever encountered. As an entrepreneur and nonprofit CEO/founder, seeing this generation display such warmth, respect, and excellent customer service truly warms my heart and gives me hope for humanity.
The staff here are incredible — they take their time, treat every customer with genuine kindness, and create an atmosphere that is nothing short of beautiful. You can feel the love and energy they put into every bowl they make.
And the bowls themselves? Absolutely stunning!
The presentation is gorgeous, and the taste is by far the best I have ever had in my life. Their granola is so amazing — the perfect blend of sweet and salty — that I now purchase it instead of any store-bought brand. It’s truly the sweet and salty magic that sets it apart!
Mamaka Bowls has even become a special place for my daughter and me to spend our mother-daughter dates. Every visit is a full experience — from the flavor to the atmosphere to the people.
We once tried another place, Rush Bowls, but honestly, there is no comparison. Needless to say, we never went back. Mamaka Bowls stole our hearts, and it’s where we’ll continue to go.
I genuinely pray the owner knows just how blessed they are to have such a wonderful group of young adults representing their brand. Their positive attitudes, beautiful energy, and dedication shine through in every part of the experience.
Thank you, Mamaka Bowls, for being such a shining light — you are truly something special!
i've only tried the babe bowl here but it's so good i get it every time but without salt and everyone working is really nice. :)
Busy place but worth the wait. Acai bowls or smoothies yes and delicious coffee to boot! Milk alternatives and healthy meal options.
First impression
-
Outside aesthetics: peaceful and cozy
Service / Ordering,
All staff was NOT friendly except for one in the red cap who was doing some inventory at the time.
I watched and winced at the condition and how unsanitary the workers made my acai bowl & smoothie.
Touching surfaces that were visible dirty and continued reaching
- into the fridge
- the deep freezer
- fruits
- mixing the bowl & smoothie
All with the same unsanitary gloves for the previous customer before me, my order, and another young lady after me.
Honestly disappointing when I waved one of the staff in front for napkins, just for her to make eye contact and ignore the request.

First, but last visit.
