Like so good my husband and I would come here at least once a week My go-to order is the PB Dream Brazilian-Base Bowl with a side of their cheese bread. The açaí has a smooth, authentic consistency (not overly icy or sorbet-like), and it doesn't taste overly sweet like some places do. The fruit is always fresh, and everything consistently tastes amazing every.single.time.

There was a bit of a mix up with my order.

I went back and they took the bowl and gave me the Pineapple one but missed my request to remove the coconut shavings. I felt bad to ask again so I tried my best to remove the coconut pieces myself. The açai itself was super refreshing and the iced mocha was pretty good too. Other than the mix up, the food was good but I recommend getting a bigger portion one because the small was not filling enough.

Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.

The only things added to this refreshing base are either additional fruits or herbs for taste; no sugar nor dairy need apply. As for toppings, the puffed quinoa in particular is a must, introducing both a satisfying crunch and nutty, toasted flavor to the mix. A study in contrasts, just a small sprinkle on top balances out any of the creamy concoctions with ease. Banán sets itself apart from the pack by offering a genuinely healthy treat where few alternatives exist, but even more importantly, by fostering a sense of community by being so keenly aware of their impact. It's the kind of small business we could truly use everywhere, but no matter how you slice it, this one is distinctly Hawaii grown, through and through.

We ordered the Lucky Macadamia Latte and the Caramel Macchiato, and both were absolutely delicious. Rich, smooth, and full of flavor -- exactly what we were hoping for to start our day right. What made the experience even better is that this location is more than just a coffee spot -- it's part of a larger food court area with plenty of tables and a really nice, relaxed atmosphere. The air conditioning works just perfectly here (not too cold, not stuffy), which is such a relief on a warm Hawaiian day. There's a great variety of food options too -- from fresh sushi to burritos, tacos, and even burgers that looked super tasty. It's convenient, clean, and the service was friendly and quick. If you're in the area and looking for a place to grab a great cup of coffee and maybe even enjoy a full meal, I definitely recommend checking out this spot. We'll be coming back for sure!

I have never done that in my life! lol Only thing is I wish they would open earlier so I can get my coffee fix before noon!

Early dinner in Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. Because of the humidity on a late 76°F April afternoon, we were looking for something "not too heavy" and decided to support Lucky's Get n Go at the Laulima Street Food Village on the front lawn of the Atkinson YMCA. It's the bright yellow vendor right on the edge of the sidewalk! We actually parked in the YMCA covered parking structure because we were just going to grab and go. The signs warn of the tow-away policy 24 hours a day, so be cautious... Service was efficient and polite. We were asked if we wanted peanut butter or Nutella on our small classic açai bowl. It was covered with crunchy granola and sliced banana. There were a couple of orders ahead of us, so we walked around a bit, in the fresh air and sunshine, and returned after a few minutes. We took our bowl, moved the car, and enjoyed the honey, chia seeds, and açai at home! It was a nice, refreshing, healthy meal! Thank you! We want to return and get the Pina colada in the pineapple and the pineapple iced tea! Wishing this new business much success!

Since it was early and there wasn't anyone there, we decided to check it out and get smoothies. Not sure how large the other Hononlulu Pineapple locations are, but this outpost is pretty tiny. They were just opening up around 9 am when we arrived. They have a ton of smoothie flavors on deck and you can make it fancy by having your smoothie served in a pineapple. They sell fresh pineapples and other fruits, and you can also purchase take home pineapple slices that are perfect for your plane ride back home. Since we were about to start a hike right afterward, we decided to skip the fancy stuff. I ordered a piña colada smoothie while my friend stuck to their famous pineapple smoothie. It took quite a while for our smoothies to be made, but what's nice is that this place uses fresh fruit and prepares it as such. I mean, it's Hawaii so you should only expect the best when it comes to fresh fruit. If you're in a time crunch, you might wanna come back when you have some time to wait. But let me just say; these smoothies were worth the wait. Booomb friggin' tastic! My Piña colada smoothie tasted magical. I could literally taste the freshness of it all. I sucked that thing down so damn fast that I started contemplating if I wanted another one (and yes, I'm still talking about the smoothies, ya nasties!). For how much it costs, I felt like a larger size would have been suitable. But, I understand why the prices are higher since their products are fresh and authentic. The staff was super sweet and apologized to us for the wait. But yeeep, the smoothies are pretty bomb here. Not sure how busy it gets in the afternoon, but having a smoothie as our morning fuel was a great idea. Make sure to stop here for a smoothie if you're hiking Manoa Falls or exploring the nearby Lyon Arboretum.
