The best Acai spot. Their Acai doesn't taste like any other Acai place I've been to. Their sandwiches are great as well. Highly recommend

Delicious açai at a reasonable price. My kids love it, I definitely love it. It is hands-down the best açai place in Downey. Unlike other places that blends there açaí with some sort of juice and it waters it down to taste like the juice... acai world does not taste watered down. it taste like actual açai with an icey taste. this will be our be regular spot! read more

To me these bowls are the best. They use OG Brazilian açaí that you can't find in most places in Southern California. Been coming back to the same spot for like 5 years and haven't been disappointed to this day. Highly recommend read more

My favorite spot for my lunches when I'm at work. They're clean, friendly, fruit is fresh, and sandwiches are big! read more

Wanted something fresh for breakfast and the Pagode bowl sounded like a good choice. Most places I get açaí bowls from end up watery in minutes but I took this bowl to-go, made it to my office and it held its shape and texture 100%! Fruits looked and tasted very fresh and the açaí itself had great flavor. Will definitely be back to try the other options! read more

Acai World - As good as it looks! Very fresh ingredients and love that the açaí isn't watery like most places Pagode Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Downey, California

I ordered a large pagode bowl, which is your typical Acai bowl. I omitted the granola because it has gluten. It was an OK bowl, I probably won't be back though. Every Acai bowl I have tried and I have tried many different places all have a creamy smoothie bowl texture to the Acai, the Acai at Acai world was icy and tasted like shaved ice Acai... I would also recommend that they offer gluten free granola even for an extra $1 I would pay for something like that and I'm sure others would as well. I will say that I didn't have to wait in line, the place and restroom was very clean and great customer service, just not the Acai bowl I was hoping for. read more

MFD sandwich has me hooked! I love the service, very nice and prompt in taking your order.. The only thing (for me) is that though I don't mind salt on my food I do find the MFD a tad bit salty, which again is not a deal breaker for me but I'm definitely needing a lot of water while eating to help me fully enjoy. I also tried their original açaí bowl and it wasn't my favorite.. texture was different than all others I've had before an so was the flavor...but then again, just has to do with my own personal taste I suppose.. i will definitely continue to enjoy their MFD every now and then read more

My fiancé and I set out to try something new today and visited Açaí World. The Cali sandwich had a nice spicy kick but still nice and cool with thick pieces of turkey. The São Paulo bowl was so good! This tastes like ice cream with the sweetest fruit and granola. I will come back! read more

Love this place! One of the only places in the area that serves fresh Acai and fruits. It's worth every dollar, and the portion size is very fulfilling. The workers are very polite, professional, and clean. That place is spotless! They also sell a variety of work out supplements. If you have questions, ask. The owner, and workers are athletes and practice jujitsu. They would be able to guide you. When I'm craving something sweet, but healthy, this is the spot! read more

My favorite place to get a sandwich and açaí. The açaí bowls are bomb. But my favorite thing on the menu is the Chipotle chicken ciabatta sandwich, definitely recommend. read more

Acai World - Build your own Acai bowl! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Downey, California

Absolutely love this place and their açaí bowls. The fruit is always fresh. Definitely recommend !!

Service was good. The Açai bowl was small compared its competitors. I felt that the Açai was frost bitten and not as silky as I was execting. The presentation was meh. I felt that they were nickle and diming me for toppings. On the other hand my fiancé had the tuna salad sandwich and she devoured it and was licking the chipotle aioli sauce they had. She was full for the rest of the day. Over all I know she would be back for the sandwiches read more

Price: for two medium size Acai bowls our total was exactly $15.98. This is a huge plus considering that their bowl price menu has the final price displayed. Size: If you're familiar around Acai fronts, some can debate that their medium can be considered a small elsewhere. Food: I ordered a Pagode Bowl whereas my partner ordered a Build Your Own bowl that included bananas, blueberries, and peanut butter. For additional topping, you'll be charged an additional dollar per topping. Mind you, having more add on's may takeaway the Acai experience. Granola topping was optional, no extra charge. I do recommend the Pagode Bowl, adding peanut butter to it is worth it. Additional fruits is unnecessary. The texture of the Acai was consist, huge plus considering that I have come across Acai that looses consistency within minutes making the bowl messy and watery. Environment: plain layout with protein and other sorts of items displayed on the wall around the establishment that you could purchase. Looked like a bowl/smoothie layout that you'd see at a gym. Wide space all around, another plus. Customer service: decent customer service. Recommended our bowls and were satisfied. Saved us from paying an additional dollar by recommending a build your own. Wait time: approximately 15-20 minutes to receive our bowls. For an Acai shop, that's pretty long. The reason was the lack of staff. Only two people prepping, and one also took on the cashier position. You can mobile order, so if the store front isn't busy they could still be backed up due to online orders. I continuously heard one if the employees apologizing for the wait time to customers. Could have been avoided. Our main reasoning for choosing this establishment was to conserve time but we ended spending more time there than we would have liked. Aside the bowl size, this is mainly why one star was taken off. Overall, I WOULD RECOMMEND. read more

8 dollars for the medium and such a small amount? And then 10 for barely any difference in serving size. Definitely not coming back again. The store changes between a variation of block açaí and liquid açaí and the worker said at the moment they offer liquid açaí for a "smoother experience" which questions what goes into the actual açaí blend. I tried to order a bowl with peanut butter and he instantly said that the store does not offer that as it is very "Americanized" and not authentic. Working in a açaí place in the past I know the sole reason not to include peanut butter in bowls is because it makes the mix harder to blend (leading to longer blend time) and leads to a longer cleanup time on the blender. I just received their #1 from the menu and can say this amount for 10 dollars is absurd. Much better off at any other açaí bowl establishment like Nektar or even Robeks. read more

Best Acai bowls ever ! Been coming here since high school... and love how their base is like a frozen custard more than watery. It doesn't melt super fast and it's always been like this since forever. 10/10 way better than movita. I'm not going anywhere else :) read more

BEST ACAI BOWL IVE EVER HAD IN AMERICA. Whether you're a fan of Acai bowls or not, you need to try this place. It's amazing. Fruits are fresh and the Acai is out of this world. I've been to a good amount of well known Acai places in SoCal and this place beats them all. Also they use some crack granola..it's literally crack. I've never had such good granola in my life. I need to ask them what they use next time I go. read more

I am very disappointed with this place. I need to find a new Acai spot. I ordered 5 bowls for pick up. Mind you, I did arrive a little earlier but I told the guy I was ok with waiting since I knew I was early. Only 2 of my bowls were done correctly. I had ordered 3 with mango added and one with coconut added as well. None of the bowls had mango added. No coconut either. All my bowls had peanut butter added which I had only ordered on 2. I ordered a large bowl and got all of them medium. I called the place back when I got home and all the guy had to say was that it was my fault for arriving too early. He then said he would give me my money back for the items that were not added and the difference for the cup size. He couldn't even refund me the correct amount! Moral of the story: check your order before you leave and don't expect good customer service if they get your order wrong. read more

Well I really wanted a bowl so I headed on over around 11am today and the door was locked. I could hear music playing inside the store but no one ever came out to open the door. I also tried calling but the number listed said it was not in service. Per the sign on the door it says they are open M-F from 10am-7pm. read more

Sooo good and fresh! Love the almond buttter. Went recently after so long and seemed like they use a different kind of granola now and I'm not mad at it. Açaí world dont miss!! read more

This is by far the best Açaí bowls I have ever had in my life. When I first went to get my açaí bowl I wasn't expecting very much since I have tried the Jamba Juice açaí bowls, but omg this açaí bowl exceeded my expectations!! Literally will not disappoint. Their facility is very clean and just gives very great service. read more

Hidden gem !!! Love there deli sandwiches and açaí bowls simply amazing I've tried other places and nothing compares

I've been coming here for years. I drive from Costa Mesa and I do it every chance I get. That says a lot knowing that I pass so many restaurants and sandwich spots. Great place for a quick healthy meal, drink, snack or protein workout powder. Workers are friendly and welcoming. read more

The Cali sammich... hands down one of the best sandwiches i've had in awhile. I ate half of it as soon as I got in my car. Super fresh, filling and DELICIOUS. read more

Not sure what to say. This was by far the worst Acai Bowl I've had. First off, I had my eye on the acai waffle because its ingredients sounded good but apparently they don't make that in a bowl so you have to get it "custom made" (hint: mad upcharge). And sure enough this ended up costing the near 9 bucks for a ridiculously small bowl (picture attached). Secondly, I wanted to add a protein powder (be it whey or something equivalent) but was told that their bowls are "fresh mixes" and that they don't add powders to their bowls - but they do to their smoothies. Huh? But every other acai bowl place I've been to has the option to add protein powder to their bowls. On a side note, I'm also kind of confused that they're against adding protein powder to their bowls when on the other wall they have a bunch of protein and other supplements they're trying to sell. Thirdly, the bowl tasted really bad. I was quite disappointed with the taste, which made it difficult to get through. I even felt a bit nauseous afterwards... not sure why. You'd think I was talking about the styrofoam bowl it's served in, but sadly, I am not. I paid $9 for a protein-lacking acai bowl that tasted really bad. Not sure how I can give it any more than a 1 star rating. Based on the overall rating - which is what brought me here in the first place - I am sorely disappointed. read more

Acai World - This poor, small bowl. $9 - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Downey, California

At first I really enjoyed the açaí bowl but then the açaí became all icy (not in a nice sorbet way). Given this is the most critical ingredient, I can't possibly give it better than a 3. I did like the fruits and granola but it was overwhelmed by the icy açaí. Overall, do not recommend. read more

Update your opening and closing time please smh first time was the morning and yesterday again in the afternoon CLOSED but google maps says otherwise read more

This place is so good! I got the acai with the waffle and it was so tasty..these guys know what's up

I would never get another Acai bowls here! It was not only UGLY but it was way over priced. Navera in Montebello put these people to shame. I was embarrassed for them and the men act like you bother them! Go away guys, you are NOT people pleasers. They might have good dood but i tried their main item and i wish i had a picture but I threw it away! DO WASTE MONIES HERE! read more

Out in Downey today and looked for a good place for after my workout. Found Acai world. It is a combo, food and supplement store. The menu is not huge. Just enough. The menu items all seemed to have nutrition in mind. The staff was super friendly as well. I ordered the Sao Paulo bowl. Acai, mangos, kiwi and coconut shavings. Right off, the presentation was very nice. Not a lot of sweeter or extras in the bowl. You could really taste the Acai. The fruit was fresh and the right size. I would for sure go back. read more

Easy parking, clean establishment, great friendly service and fresh tasting food with lots of flavor! Great tasting healthy options are hard to find but at Acai World you find just that. Healthy sandwiches, wraps, flatbreads, smoothies, juices and Acai bowls. I tried the M.F.D. Sandwich and I'm not sure what M.F.D. stands for but my guess is "Mother-Fn'-Delicious"! It comes with basil pesto spread (yum), red peppers, mozzarella cheese and sliced chicken. The sandwich was pretty big, almost New York deli big and was deliciously healthy. I also sampled a little of their Acai and that too was delicious and refreshing. The best part is these are tasty meals and you don't have to feel guilty afterwards; it's a win, win! Acai World also happens to share space with Max Fitness Depot which carries nutrition supplements. So you can get your grub on and pick up some supplements while you're there. If you're not from the area and are having a hard time finding it, just look for Jim's Burgers and it's in that same center across from the Downey Nissan Dealership. Parking is easy--big parking lot with plenty of spots available. read more

This used to be my favorite açaí spot but recently has been nothing but disappointed. The bowl sizes have gotten smaller and prices have increased. Not worth it with other açaí spots that give more for less. Overall not my favorite açaí spot anymore read more

Acai World is awesome in my book. Very convenient, easy parking and delivery options if you order by Yelp Eat24. If you sign-up for Yelp's cash back, you automatically get 10% credited back to your card. That's sales tax, plus a little extra. Who doesn't want money back?! I had some time to browse through the online menu, simple enough to navigate. After debating between their MFD, Basil Pesto flat bread, I opted for the Pagode, which was absolutely delicious. Medium was the perfect portion for me, considering I wasn't extremely hungry. They also have a punch card rewards option. So make sure to ask, before leaving. I was lucky enough that the gentlemen, who was assisting asked. Otherwise, I would have never known. Look forward to trying more stuff on the menu. The only thing, I'd recommend would be perhaps earlier hours. For example 7:00am, is when local juice bars in the area open. So it would be nice to stop in before work. Or for those opting to do a healthier option. read more

I can't say enough about this place! It's tucked away in a plaza located behind a Jim's burger. I'm currently doing clinical rotations at a rehab clinic next door and I just happened to need a little energy boost. Walked right next door and there it was... Interior: kind of abandoned looking, but stocked full of things you'd need to look and feel your best during an apocalypse. They sell supplements, snacks, CBD oil, drinks, and other things. Food/drinks: the main highlight of this review is going to be their house special protein shake. It's so good! I do taste the frozen fruits at the end though. There's always one or two pieces still not blended well into the drink, but I look at it as a little snack after I finish my drink. All my coworkers have said the açaí is really good as well, but at the same level as Jamba Juice. Their chicken sandwich was packed full of chicken, sauce, and other veggies that will give you the best vitamins to carry out the rest of your day. Service: there's usually 2 people working and they seem to have fun with each other. I don't mind waiting since I go next door waiting for my order anyways. Seems like the place is kind of slow, I wonder why this place would be so slow. Their service isn't bad and the food/drinks are really good! Come check them out! read more

Hands down the BEST açaí bowl I've had. It's not too sweet and doesn't taste artificial like other places. I LOVE this place and my only suggestion is to go easy on the granola unless you prefer more granola than açaí read more

First time here and it was super good! I recommend the bowls and the smoothies! They are all super refreshing and great!

Always great service, delicious food and açaí bowls I mostly come for the food, but they also sell a lot of different types of protein, BCAAs, CBD products and drinks read more
