**Alegria Bowls - A Burst of Happiness in Every Bite!** I used to walk by Alegria Bowls on Main Street and always wondered what the hype was about... and now, the only thing I regret is not going in sooner! "Alegria" means happiness in Portuguese, and let me tell you, that's exactly what this place delivers. Their specialty? **Acai Bowls** - straight from Brazil, these delicious bowls are packed with fresh ingredients, and you get to customize them exactly how you like! From acai to milkshakes and ice cream, everything is made fresh, and you can even add fun Brazilian treats like **Serenata de Amor** chocolate (a delightful caramel chocolate that adds the perfect touch to their ice cream ). I tried the **strawberry milkshake**, and it was absolutely *delicious* - super fresh, creamy, and worth every sip. Yes, it's on the pricier side, but the quality and freshness of the ingredients make it totally worth it, in my opinion. **Food**: 9/10 **Pricing**: 6/10 (a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for!) **Ambiance**: 7/10 (fun, welcoming vibes with a bubbly font that adds to the charm) If you're craving something fresh, healthy, and oh-so-yummy, do yourself a favor and stop by Alegria Bowls! You won't regret it.

Fresh, high-quality fruit, crunchy granola, and delicious tropical flavor made the SunSplash Açaí Bowl a great choice. Friendly staff, quick service, and an overall excellent experience. I'll be back!

Even from the menu, you could tell that this is authentically Brazilian. They offer many authentic topping options, such as brigadeiros. This place is significantly better than those chain açai and juice spots in town. However, the price was very high!

Acai Shake .

First time in Boston looking for something sweet found this cute small place Brazilian . Plenty of options in the menu and amazing service. The acai was deliciousness I was on the go they was able to make it in a smoothie. Prices are very average for the amount served

Small Açaí bowls

Came in and ordered a couple small bowls to-go, and they were amazing! I love that you can pick 7 different toppings for your bowl and it's included in the cost. They have a huge variety of options that i haven't seen in any other place. I find that the cultural aspect of having more Brazilian toppings makes all the difference. The açaí was the perfect, smooth texture and tasted incredible. The toppings were fresh and delicious as well! My new favorite açaí spot for sure. The owner George is sweet and let me know about their loyalty program! I thought the aesthetic was very fitting, well-lit and nicely organized. Place is so cute!!

Cookie dough milkshake

I visited Alegria Bowls a couple of weeks ago and I was so impressed!! I talked to the owner, who was very kind and welcoming. He told me that all of Alegria's acai is imported directly from Brazil, and it was incredibly fresh - such good flavor! The storefront is small but was full by the time I left - couples, families, individuals, etc. I imagine it will be discovered by the Tufts student population very soon, considering how delicious (and good looking!!) its menu options are. What I ordered: 1. Acai bowl: I got this with several different types of fruit and it was delicious!! A super generous portion of acai and everything was arranged so beautifully. I loved how customizable this choice was - there is certainly something for everyone on their toppings menu! 2. Cookie dough milkshake: This one was UNREAL. It looks like a milkshake from heaven, first of all - and it tasted like one too! I was so impressed by how generously topped it was - with tons of whipped cream, a chocolate chip cookie, caramel, a rolled wafer cookie, etc. This is definitely going to blow up on social media...it looks too good not to!! Would highly recommend visiting Alegria. It's an awesome small business, and the food is genuinely so fresh - the perfect place to get your acai fix. Enjoy!!

Their Brazilian Açaí Bowl is a game changer, I have been going there for two weeks in a row! Can't wait to have more when the weather gets better! They offer açaí bowl, frozen yogurt, milkshake, ice cream, and açaí  shake.

the quality of acai was great and the toppings were also really good. I would recommend for others to try

Loved our visit!  10/10 recommend.

We got the chocolate and passion fruit scoops - excellent. The passion fruit was nice and tangy…read more The seeds made it slightly crunchy too. The mango was exceptional but the mascarpone-fig was underwhelming - could barely taste the fig. We went on a Saturday evening and it was crowded but the staff also seemed a bit overwhelmed and confused by the crowd. However, once we put the order in, we got it fairly quick. Very little seating inside.

So, this is a cozy little spot my bestie introduced me to from which one can grab a sweet treat or…read moretwo (or several). It sits comfortably on the corner of JFK and Winthrop Street, right in the midst of Harvard Square. Which figures because this place is bougie as hell! Just the same, we're eternally grateful to have met its acquaintance. Because this place is the real deal when it comes to macarons. Ya know how some grocery stores sell macarons in a box or something? Yeah, those are basically the generic version compared to the ones sold here. These ones are on another level entirely! We got the variety pack, of course. And so far, my top two personal favorite flavors are the Tiramisú and Chocolate Amorino. The experience tasting these is impossible to describe in words worthy enough to dignify. Let's just say....it's enough to ascend your consciousness into low orbit. The process of ordering is simple enough or strangely foreign (no pun intended), depending on if you're a Zoomer or a Boomer, respectively. They use kiosks. Exclusively. It's a little weird, because there is what appears to be a main register with people standing behind it. Only their main task is to prepare your order and call out your name once it's ready. This is better, IMHO because talking to people is hard (sometimes). I dunno what it is. But most times, it seems easier to get the details of an order right when it's neatly selected and typed out on a screen. Besides, tap-to-pay is where it's at. Oh, and for those of you who are wondering what Gelato is, it's a specific type of Italian ice cream. Without getting into the exact percentages of the various lactose components it's made of, that's the simplest way I can explain it. *Obligatory disclaimer: I am not an ice creamologist. I think this is gonna be our dessert spot whenever we venture back to Cambridge. And next time, I am SO getting my own 12 pack of macarons with my two favorite flavors in it. No doubt about it, Amorino Gelato is worth 5 creamy Tiramisú macarons transcending my cortex beyond the stratosphere out of 5.

There was a line when we got there but it moved very fast and the staff was good at getting…read morecustomers through without making you feel rushed. The ice cream was amazing. It is all home made and they nailed the flavors. The pumpkin pie cheesecake tasted so naturally like pumpkin.

No free samples. You can complain about a flavor if you don't like it (once ordered and paid) and…read moreget it replaced, but they throw the original all away. This is their policy and it's fine, just seems wasteful. This also makes it hard to try the unique flavors :( I wouldn't have had an issue (since it's their own policy) but the replacement portion was way smaller. I'm not sure if the staff was having a bad day or not, but it seemed like asking for a replacement flavor was purposefully made uncomfortable to deter you from asking? (P.S. Paying $6 for very little portions plus not having samples of flavors seems counterintuitive.) Also, Horchata is a rice based drink (with its main liquid being milk, water is also added though), so how can that be a vegan option? If they were able to actually have it taste like Horchata (with or without milk) that would've been fine, but it tasted like water + cinnamon. This was the flavor that brought me to this place so I was disappointed :( Overall, I might come back for the Cold Brew and Brown Sugar Vanilla flavors when I want a sweet treat (there are other sweet places for a better price and experience). But the fact that I ended up liking two of the most basic flavors out of the whole menu disappoints me :/
