    Purple rain burst
    Davina H.

    Bowlista is an absolute gem! I can't say enough good things about this place. It is my go-to for fresh, thoughtfully made smoothies and wellness shots. The overnight oats and bowls need an honorable mention as well, so delicious. What really sets Bowlista apart is how kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating the staff are. I came in needing something very specific for hydration and recovery, and they were more than happy to help me customize a smoothie (swapping bases, adding greens, chia, Himalayan salt, etc.) without making it feel complicated or rushed. Everything I've ever tried at Bowlista, has tasted amazing and even made me feel better, which doesn't always happen at juice bars. The ingredients are clearly high quality, the menu is creative but not overwhelming, and the space has such a clean, calming vibe. Whether you're looking for hydration, recovery, or just a genuinely delicious smoothie, bowl, etc. Bowlista delivers every time. You can tell they actually care about what they're serving and the people they're serving it to. Highly recommend 10/10.

    Love Bowlista's smoothies! I've tried the Popeye punch, islander and summer smoothies. The smoothies are tasty, refreshing, and a great consistency (thick and creamy but still easy to drink with a straw). If you go to Bowlista in a rush or expecting quick service, you will be disappointed. If you have more time to spare, it'll be worth the wait! There are signs that mention the longer wait time so that customers aren't surprised. There are fun lounge chairs up front for you to sit and enjoy the sun while you wait. Shoutout to Lars for the drink reccs! The summer smoothie is my new favorite. Will have to try the purple rain next time!

    Great options for the açaí bowls: bases such as matcha, chia pudding, açaí, pitaya; unlimited toppings such as peanut butter, nuts, and fruits. Service does take a bit of time so perhaps order online (I was the only person and after ordering, I probably waited 8-10 minutes).

    Cute little spot!! This place is definitely not fast, as everything is prepared by hand so just prepare to wait a little! Even the coffee is freshly brewed ! The inside is super cute! There were a plethora of options for açaí bowls and smoothies. I got the islander acai bowl and it was just as I imagined, so yummy and perfect! It looked beautiful and I love how there was granola throughout the whole bowl. The bowls are super filling too. The guy working there was really friendly too!

    I used to come here all the time, but I travel for work a ton. Finally had a day off to treat myself with my husband. Was ignored when we walked in. The kid behind the counter was on the phone and acted like he couldn't be bothered. After standing there for about 5 minutes, we asked, "hiya! How's it going?" trying to be polite to get his attention. When he finally walked over to us, he told me husband, "I'm on the phone with my boss." He acted like we were an inconvenience to him. We both ordered smalls, got rung up for regulars. The food was delicious. But the customer service was terrible. He remained on the phone the entirety of our visit. This will probably be the last time I visit. A little hospitality or customer service goes a long way. But to be completely ignored and brushed off, just isn't good business.

    Sooo good!!!

    I still love this place!! The ambiance, the quality and freshness of all the ingredients, great management, clean environment, and friendly service are all the reasons I come back. But I did overhear a conversation while I was in line, so I'd like to make a small suggestion. Maybe this establishment can print out a menu because it is a little challenging to the see the one overhead for those who have weaker visibility. My favorite is the Popeye bowl. So healthy but yet so yummy!! I always look forward to my next visit. Thanks, Bowlista team, for being awesome!

    This place is incredible. Their Acai is extremely delicious and they offer the widest variety of toppings compared to other Acai places. There is a long wait time typically but it's well worth it for the quality you get, this can also be negated by ordering online. This place is also fairly reasonable for the quality that you get. The owner, Lars, takes such pride in each bowl, and it is very apparent. This is my go to Acai place and will be for quite a while.

    The pictures on Google Maps look very impressive, but there must be some store taken ones among them. The bowls and juices are served in plastic wear, not very environmental friendly. The bowls are just ok. It was somewhat too sweet and I am not sure if they are using natural sweetener. I did not find anything special. They look much better and fresher in the pictures. There was also only one person working. So they were understaffed and it took a long time for the order to be ready.

The service is always friendly, even though there's only one main guy that's working there! He is SUPER friendly and remembers everyone! It's always clean and the decor is true to any acai place. There aren't too many places to sit indoors so I recommend going outside to the outdoor patio seating and enjoy the weather with your acai bowl!

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!

When I picked up the drink and lightly shook it, the lid/seal had not been sealed properly, causing the drink to splatter all over my clothes, feet, and my daughter. What made the situation even worse was how your employees handled it. Nobody made any effort to help clean up the mess or assist us. I had to repeatedly ask just to get a towel, and when one was finally brought over, the employee simply handed it to me instead of helping in any way. When I asked why the seal wasn't secured properly, I was told that the machine has been having issues sealing drinks correctly. That is not the customer's problem. If your equipment is malfunctioning, products should not be handed out in that condition. Customers expect their orders to be prepared correctly and safely. More importantly, employees should be trained on how to properly handle situations like this -- by helping the customer, showing concern, and taking accountability. This was an extremely disappointing experience, and based on how this situation was handled, I will not be returning to this location. I would not recommend this store to others.
