Original aloha bowl. Not worth it.
Oj D.

Go the original aloha bowl. The ingredients used from the açaí was way to sweet as their base and lacked good flavor acai, the honey used you Can tell is not organic and also very sweet and artificial along with the granola used. If your desperate for acai come here or if you have time to make the walk Hawaiian aroma cafe. Also the prices here for what you're getting you'll know is a rip off.

Storefront
Courtney O.

Aloha Bowls and Tea is located near the Tapa Bar at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort in Honolulu. My family and I stopped by a couple of times during our vacation - one for some acai bowls and another for some smoothies. Our favorite was the Hawaiian Sun Rise acai bowl that had fresh papaya as well as mango sorbet on top. For the smoothie, my daughter ordered the Chocolate Banana flavor and loved it. Service was fine, nothing special. Just a younger kid taking orders and a few people in the back making the orders. As for ambiance, it is just a storefront window that you order at - there are no tables, but we took our acai bowls and ate them around the nearby pool. Aloha Bowls and Tea also offers a few different types of poke bowls as well as fresh tea with boba drinks. Overall, the orders came out quickly and the location was convenient.

Açaí bowel

Quick service, even when busy. Poke was a good serving size amount for one person and comes with rice. Açaí bowl was good, not too sweet with fresh fruit. It is to go so no where to sit, we found a table and chairs by the pool to eat at. Make sure to order the pearls in your tea, they don't come with it automatically.

Was laying out by the pool and wanted a fresh cool snack. This place is located right next to the tapa pool and tower. It's a small place on the corner. Service was friendly and quick. I ordered the original aloha and it was perfect. Fresh fruit. Lots of flavor. Just enough sweet with the honey added. Yummmmm. Highly recommend grabbing a bowl!

Stopped by Aloha Bowls and Tea for a quick acai bowl. It was good, not bad, not amazing. Nothing really stood out about it, and the bowl wasn't quite as flavorful or fresh as the ones I'm used to back home. Overall, it did the job. If you're nearby and want something light, it's a decent option, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way for it.

The checkout process was smooth and easy. We ordered the Honeydew Milk Tea with tapioca pearls (boba) and the Matcha Milk Tea with boba -- and honestly, they were the best we've had on the island so far! We're from the Kapolei side, and the boba here tasted like soft mochi balls, which was amazing. The tea wasn't watery like some of the spots back home, and the flavors were perfectly balanced. The wait time was reasonable, prices were fair, and the service was great. We'll definitely be coming back on our next staycation!

#60 Aloha Milk Tea $7.95 plus Lychee Jelly $1.25 DELICIOUS strong tea flavor and delightfully sweet
Laura C.

Prices have gone up since the Yelp menu photo I looked at. It's now $7.95 for a milk tea plus $1.25 for jelly or boba, but I still think it's a good value as most other comparable drinks I've found are ranging $11-$16 (even at the mall). The tea was perfect. I loved the strength of the tea-- very present, in a good way. They didn't skimp on the jelly (normally I get boba with my milk teas but I wanted to try something different). The Aloha Milk Tea (#60) is your standard basic milk tea but it was so good. Very sweet, but not overly. I WAS however bummed that they weren't willing to let me try a sample of the coffee jelly (would it really have been too much for them to use one of the plastic spoons they provide with the açai bowls to scoop a little coffee jelly for me to try before confirming that as my choice? ). As I've never had coffee jelly I played it safe and went with lychee. The lychee jelly was good. Overall the service was ok and ambiance wasn't anything special (this is basically a grab and go kind of place). Some upbeat tropical music (Hawaiian Reggae?) could have added to the ambiance I guess.

Original Aloha (Size regular)
Stephanie B.

Great option located at the Hilton for quick and fresh Açaí bowls, Poke, or hot/iced tea. You order at the window and keep in mind there are no tables near to sit. We ended up taking our Açaí bowls and smoothie to the pool to enjoy.

Açaí bowls!
Tory M.

Absolute gem in the Hilton Hawaiian village reasonably priced, and delicious! Me and my sister got the local bowl and the original bowl and the base were both acai. Thick and tasty, with the perfect amount of honey on top!

Coconut Taro Milk Tea
Angel W.

Quick stop to get a refreshing treat after the beach. Personally, I would have liked more fruit and less acai but it was overall a good bowl. The acai was also a little too frozen for my liking but that might be nice on a particularly hot day. It's located in the Hilton Hawaiian Village, which is a beautiful area to walk around and shop. Lots of scenic spots nearby to enjoy your bowl and/or drink.

My husband and I are staying at Hilton Hawaiian village and I wanted a little snack to enjoy at the beach on the resort. It's tucked away, close to the Starbucks. Service was really quick and the prices are fair enough for having the convenience for having it on premises. The regular size was plenty for me. The fruit was fresh and the granola stayed crunchy and sweet. Wouldn't mind getting it again.

This review is from when I visited here during my trip to Hawaii in February 2024. I was walking around Waikiki and shopping at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Hotel, I wanted to drink boba tea and stopped by this shop. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations because the store wasn't that fancy, but I was surprised to find that the Boba milk tea was delicious. What I found delicious was that the overall balance was excellent, the tea was strong (that's what I like), and had a good balance of sweetness and bitterness, the hardness of the boba. The service was quick. When I have a chance, I would like to try fruit bowls next time.

This place was pretty good for a morning bite. I would have loved to enjoy peanut butter in one of their bowls, but that is just personal preference, the Acai was super frozen (almost a bit more than I would have liked), the service was quick and I don't think there is a bad place to enjoy the scenery and eat in Hawaii. This is a quick service window and you can easily grab your food and walk about 100 feet to the beach or 50 feet to the pool across the way. Overall good, I would go back if I'm in the market for a quick and easy light breakfast.

Top: #87 hawaiian style ahi Bottom: #89 Spicy Ahi Both sooo good. Get both :)

I love the vibes from this place, vibrant colors and very much sun-kissed energy. I see this business is marked as temp closed -- it is very much open lol.

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.

Best. Açai. Bowl. Ever…read more Honestly this place really does live up to the hype. Overall: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Açai Bowl - 5/5 - So sweet, and naturally at that, there's no added sugar to the açai. It's so tasty and healthy at the same time. There is a bar with extra toppings. Waffle - 5/5 - The waffle was notable too and only a $2 addition to the meal. So good. Eggs - 4.5/5 - Eggs were great too... perfectly cooked, Gordon Ramsey style. Hot dogs were hot dogs. If there's one to skip out, it's this, but It was really good still. Service - 5/5 - Truly all such friendly workers. Everyone was super sweet and had the aloha vibe. Made us love the place even more. Ambiance - 4/5 - Positive vibes and underground in a mall food court type of setting. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting! Mahalo for everything.

Definitely one of those places where the food is great, but the kindness of the owner makes you want to come back even more. Highly recommend if you're in Waikīkī.

TLDR: Long lines even at opening, customizable options but consistently good!…read more Can't say I haven't had authentic acai up until this point. For some reason, I totally forgot that good acai could be found in Hawaii!! Hello!! Its not just the fresh fish ya'll I walked here and there was still a line by 7, and even longer one when I went the next day, but it does move quite fast, especially with some of the workers letting people know they have a sit down resturant next door so just food for thought if you want more actual food options! As it stands they have quite an extensive list of juice, coffee, acai. I decided to go with a more basic route but instead subbing my fruit for what was in season which was mango, lilikoi and lychee. You order at the front and they call your number. They have some seating around as well but if you're at the hawaiian center you can just sit downstairs. The fruit alone was out of this world. I was actually so focused on that I wasn't even thinking about if the acai was good which I think it was! It comes out rather creamy, not frozen or icy. The price is a little steeper than what I've had in the past but honestly the fresh fruit alone made it extremely worth it. A regular sized bowl was quite filling! I came back the next day and it was still just as good. I know some people probably prefer different locations than others but I can rep this one for sure. Its in a very touristy place, maybe even the mecca so if you want to avoid that then avoid any location in waikiki

This place definitely lived up to the hype for us! The line was long but moved pretty fast. The…read moremenu is huge so there's going to be something for everyone. Don't sleep on the avocado toast!
