The shop is clean, bright, and easy to order from. I like that you can either build your own bowl or choose one of their signature bowls, so there's something for everyone. They have a good selection of fresh fruit, granola, nut butters, and other toppings, which makes it easy to customize exactly what you're in the mood for. ::Acai:: Everything tasted fresh. The açaí was smooth, flavorful, and not overly sweet, which I really appreciated. The granola added the perfect crunch, and all the toppings worked well together. It's one of those meals that feels like a treat but still leaves you feeling good afterward. ::Customer Service:: Everyone I interacted with was friendly and welcoming. ::M's Notes:: - Outdoor seating - Street parking

Back with some friends. Luckily, not as much Nutella as last time ‍ very yummy. I feel like the acai tastes like cotton candy ice cream

Sarah really held it down today by herself! It's one of the freakish 90+ California days so everyone and their grandparents want to grab an ice cream alternative... since it's hot and a Friday almost all the customers in front of me seemed to have had an attitude. Sarah handled them with tact and poise! The joint is cozy, clean & calm. Acai was delicious! Keep it up!

Nutella Fella

The Nutella Fella bowl is pretty good! We were passing through and looking for something light and fresh, ordered online and order was available on time! Unfortunately no napkins or spoon in the bag, but overall good experience!

Delicious smoothie from a nicely appointed menu. Loved the pineapple mint taste! I requested collagen in mine and felt very posh and VIP ;) Prompt and polite service, located near Octavia's Books for all of you bibliophiles. Gotta check it out!

Acai, Granola, Goji Berries, Honey, Strawberry, and Cacao Nibs
Katelyn K.

A few weeks ago my job hosted a staff appreciation day and they had acai bowl stall on-site. It was from Acai Bar with two staffs making custom bowls for everyone. We only had one base flavor which was acai. In the past I never cared for acai bowls but after I had one from here, I was hooked! I also tried acai bowls from different places but never liked them as much as from Acai Bar. I was in the area and stopped by after they opened on a Saturday morning. I managed to find parking in the back but it was difficult since a popular restaurant was located there. The store is also small. There were four customers inside and having more than 6 people in there was already crowded. I chose a custom bowl and mentioned it was my first time at this location. The staff was so nice and gave me a free 5th topping since it was my first time. I chose acai for base, granola, goji berries, strawberry, cacao nibs and honey as my toppings. I do think it's best to eat this right away. They have tables and chairs in front of the store. I took it home, freeze it for a bit and enjoyed it then. I'd love to try other bases next time!

Granola, blueberries and mango..  yummy

The Açaí bar is stocked with freshness and many options. The employees are awesome. Very convenient for Altadena and Pasadena community

Acai Berry Smoothie

I want to like this place because the drinks can be good when they're made fresh, but the customer service is consistently terrible. This order was placed through DoorDash for pickup and scheduled ahead of time. I arrived about ten minutes after placing the order, and DoorDash already showed it as 'ready.' When I told the employee I had a pickup order, he acted like he knew what I was talking about and started looking around, even checking the fridge. The smoothie hadn't actually been made it had been sitting out. Instead of remaking it properly, he simply added more ice and re-blended it. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the mistake, nothing. The lack of care and professionalism completely ruins the experience. The product might be decent, but the customer service is horrendous. This place seriously needs to do better.

Vitality Bowl
Moriah L.

Was craving açaí on a hot day and wanted to give Açaí Bar a try! There was a lot of street parking when I arrived! A small, cute location with a few bar stools. I ordered the Vitality Bowl. The fruit was fresh and the açaí base was yummy, service was quick too! Not a lot of space to hang out and socialize but a good place to stop by if you want a to-go order(:

Berry Me Bowl
Denise P.

First impressions are everything, when my partner and I walked in we were welcome my crickets, the two young ladies at the counter were not friendly, and stared at us instead of greeting us ( we went on a Friday) It was out first time here, I tried the "Berry me bowl, unlike the customer service, it did not disappoint. The place is small and maybe max limit per space is 4 people. Probably won't come back.

Does the Acai base have caffeine in it?

Is the acai base made fresh to order with fresh fruit?

When are you going to start offering unlimited toppings? That is the direction of most of your competitors. You best take note.

Thanks for your input Bruce. Which competitors come to mind? Also, how do you feel about their base. Many places can offer that because of lower quality and cheaper base. However your suggestion is a good idea

Do you serve Pitaya Bowls?

Hi Glenn, At the moment we only use a pure Açai base. Thanks for your inquiry.… 

What's in the bulletproof coffee? Do you offer heavy cream?

Bulletproof is the brand of coffee beans. You can either have it in a regular drip coffee format, cold brew or their signature (MCT oil & butter) which we call the jumpstart

Do you have almond butter as an alternative?

We do have almond butter

This açaí shop is absolutely AWESOME!!! I found this shop three weeks ago and have been back two to…read morethree times a week, every week since!! They have a wide variety of açaí bases - my favorites are traditional açaí, mango and coconut - and they have lots of fresh fruit and offer unlimited toppings. I really like that you can see and sample the all the various options - even the bases. When you start your bowl you have the choice of ratio of açaí to toppings you want in your bowl. From there you can just start stacking it up with all the fresh, delicious goodies. My favorite bowl is half fill açaí, granola, all the fruits (except cranberries), a little honey, some condensed milk and toasted coconut. And don't sleep on their empanadas! They are really good too. Great variety with super flavors. Beef, chicken and vegan available. One of the SUPER PHENOMENAL things here is the people!! The shop is owned by a daughter / father dynamic duo!! The daughter is sweet and charming and makes the best bowls!! The dad has huge personality and will teach you all about açaí and have you trying new options. He's a real kick in a good way. I even met the mom working in the shop one day. She said she doesn't work there often but stepped in to help. She was very friendly also. They are a couple of others that work there that are also very nice, efficient and make great bowls. The shop is cute and clean. Everything is made right in front of you. (You can also order home delivery from Ubatuba.) The shop is freeway close and has a large, easy access parking lot. They do not have indoor dining, but do have a couple of outdoor tables.

I ordered a large acai bowl and I like that they really let you customize it to the max, which is perfect for me because I literally want everything in my bowl lol. The fruits tasted fresh and ripe, so that's definitely a plus. My favorite part has to be the almond butter drizzle. It goes so well with the acai and granola and just brings everything together. Overall, a solid spot for a refreshing acai bowl with plenty of toppings and customization. I'll definitely be back whenever I'm craving acai!

You can get a choice of bread which is very high-quality, and add either avocado spread or a nut butter spread. I went yesterday on a very hot day and the avocados were not ripe enough, so I chose a cashew butter toast. There are many toppings to choose from like granola's, nuts, seeds, chia pudding, fresh fruit, and even natural sweeteners. I got some berries, fresh and toasted coconut and date syrup drizzled on top. It is such a satisfying snack with a bit of protein and other healthy ingredients that I did not feel guilty about eating I don't know if it was the bread I chose, but the size was a little smaller than what I remember. However, it hit the spot until my next meal. The shop is extremely clean and Service was very pleasant and friendly.
