    Service was great as it was just one worker for everyone who came in. The place was decorated cute. As for the bowl, it's the most expensive one I have had yet and for the least amount of flavor. Chia pudding was not the greatest it had too much vanilla. The acai was just ok. I don't think I will be returning as I like the set up of other places and more option choices at not extra charge better.

    I love Acai bowls and this was my first time trying Acai republic . Located in town center next to a bunch of restaurants with plenty of parking . Service was super nice . We got 4 bowls and took our time choosing . Very patient . Usually we are used to picking our toppings so it was a little different picking out the premade flavors . I got the real Brazilian. Very good . Not too sweet. Fruits were fresh and plentiful . Priced right . I'll definitely see myself returning for another bowl or trying a protein shake

    Pretty good acai bowls! Came here during a recent hot day and surprisingly they weren't too busy - just a few people in line and a few people outside eating. It's a small place with a welcoming feel. Friendly service, and I love how I can see the bowl being made. Besides acai bowls, they also sell pastries and some brownies - nice selection when we went. We tried the The São Paulo per their recommendation and we loved it. Very refreshing and we loved the banana and strawberry toppings. We had it slightly sweetened with honey. The granola had a great crunch to it, which added a nice texture to the smooth acai blend. Our kids ate it up! We also tried the coxinha (shredded chicken pastry), ham and cheese empanada, and Zé Brownie. We were also gifted a couple of pieces of cheese bread! The coxinha had an interesting texture - kind of reminded me of a tuna sandwich, but it was all chicken! Both the empanada and the cheese bread were hits with the boys. The brownie was good, but nothing special.

    The Real Brazilian My favorite one!

    Fantastic service!!! Every single staff member I've met at the Foothill Ranch location has been extremely friendly. They really make the experience! Their products are fresh and delicious. They have a great variety of smoothies and bowls and their pastries are amazing! They make great recommendations on what ingredients to add on and what new items to try. This spot has become our weekly stop after a long day at work and school. All the stars!!!

    Not only is the staff super friendly and helpful, the acai bowls are also amazing. The fruits were fresh and so sweet. Their empanadas are also very tasty. We tried the spinach and cheese ones and the beef ones as well. We also tried the circle one with cream cheese and chicken. Everything tasted great but my favorite was the spinach one. My family members had their favorites like the circle ones that my son really liked and my daughter said the beef ones were really tasty. The empanadas have a perfect crust and were just the right size as well.

    I've been coming here for almost two years. Never been let down once. I've become good friends with one of the partners, nicest family owned business in the food court. I will be honest. The only items I purchased are the real Brazilian açaí bowl and beef empanadas. Therefore, I vouch 100% for those items. My wife usually gets the Cali and has loved it every single time.

This is my second review for the same dining place, this time I took a bunch of pictures. I was first drawn to this place by its crab legs, but now I am fixated on its fresh sushi/sashimi bar and the yummy soupy clams! Looking at the small clam shell mountain sitting in front of me that I have created, I chuckled; sipping the same hot yummy clam soup broth, I felt recharged; the clams were fresh, tasty, and so delicious! I mush have finished one whole tray by myself! I started off by eating my salad which drew some criticism from my friend that I should skip the salad when at a buffet, but I love my veggies! The next plate comprised of mostly the stir fried and baked dishes. The black pepper beef was disappointing but the orange chicken was good; the beef ribs and the pork ribs were ok. If you have a sweet tooth, you will be satisfied with fresh fruits, jello, pastries, and the never ending ice cream! Our 9-year boy kept on going back and he even had one cone for the way home! Totally a kid pleaser! Empty plates were removed promptly, and the buffet dishes are monitored and refilled promptly as well! Overall, fresh ingredients, varieties of dishes to choose from, spacious dining room, reasonably priced ($27.99 for weekend lunch).

    I have to say this is a pretty decent place for a buffet. They have a large selection. Some better…read morethan others. Place is clean and it looks like it gets packed and queue forms. We had a reservation so we didn't have to wait. Plus we were a large group too, so reservation made sense. Service is really good. I know it's self serve, but they attended to us for drinks. And we were celebrating someone's birthday and they even provide us with paper plates for the cake that we brought in. A good place to try if you want a buffet around the area.

I ordered a small bowl with half coconut and half matcha, and really enjoyed how smooth and creamy the sorbet acai was. It had a natural, slightly earthy flavor that didn't taste overly sweet or artificial, which I appreciated. The matcha and coconut combination worked really well together and made the bowl feel balanced and refreshing. For toppings, I added coconut crunch granola, chia pudding, bananas, pineapple, and shredded coconut flakes. The mix of textures and flavors made each bite enjoyable,light, fresh, and satisfying without feeling heavy. It was filling in a way that felt nutrient dense, and I stayed energized for hours afterward without feeling sluggish. The environment was also very clean and well kept, with a fresh, pleasant atmosphere. The staff was friendly and patient, which made the experience even better. One thing to note is that they have gone cashless at all locations, so be prepared to pay by card or mobile payment. Overall, this was a simple but well balanced post workout meal that felt both refreshing and nourishing. I would definitely come back for this again.

I feel like I like being able to eat so many fun toppings even more than the actual acai base, so I love how they have a huge variety of ones to choose from. Didn't know the Spectrum opened up an Earthbowl until recently and I placed an order online as I was in a rush. I will say that some of my favorite toppings were out of stock online, like the mulberries and cacao nibs. I remember they would always load me up on those and they were so good! I was craving acai about a week later and went to order again online, but those two toppings were still unavailable so I didn't end up ordering again. All in all, still love Earthbowl but I think the Lake Forest location still has the #1 spot in my heart. The sizes here have also gotten a little smaller and prices have gone up, but I get that a lot of time has passed. I'll definitely be waiting for those toppings to be restocked and if I'm at the Spectrum again, would love to give it a try again!
