    Tried this on a Saturday and they were surprisingly not busy. Ordered a 50/50 acai bowl to eat on the spot. Pretty good but I would've preferred the California bowl with peanut butter. They had plenty of seats but limited parking on the streets and some reserved parking on the sidewalk. The Cafe isnt in the building, its on the north side of the building where the parking is. I got the Ocean bowl for my wife and a couple of others to try and they enjoyed it. The fruits were fresh and all the flavors meshed pretty well. Definitely recommend on a hot day. The seating area also has shade if you need to cool off for a bit.

    Great açaí bowls and Vietnamese iced coffees! Loved how generous they were with the PB that I added to mine. Both of the adult bowls were generous with all the fruits, too. My husband said he wished the açaí was a bit sweeter like some of our spots back in LA that we frequent, but I preferred the taste of this place's because that means there was less sugar lol. Our 2.5 y/o enjoyed the plain fruit bowl. The mango in his bowl was perfectly ripe and soft. He also loved running laps around the tables on the AstroTurf without his shoes on lol.

    My boyfriend and I got açaí bowls and they were amazing! The bowls tasted so fresh, especially the fruit on top. The bowls were both reasonably priced as well. The cafe is located in a cute area with a few tables to sit. The woman working behind the counter was sweet and our food came out quick. Will definitely be back here soon!

    Cafe Bella's sister cafe. This place has more food options than cafe Bella and different varieties of açai bowls. We love cafe Bella for their açai bowls and we found this place to be no different. I really enjoyed the açai smoothie and we also really liked the ocean bowl açai bowl - the base tasted more like pineapple. Overall super tasty and the fruit toppings were very fresh. Service was very very friendly and informative. Definitely recommend

    Quick service and very affordable açaí bowl! I got the small and it was a very good portion. Love the outdoor seating and the music playing wasn't too loud! Dog friendly too which is a plus

    toddler approved her favorite is a bagel and cream cheese. This is a go to spot for us. I got an iced americano one pump mocha, and 3 raw sugars. Plenty of seating w/ friendly area. (duh, it's OB)

    We were looking for a quick bite on our way back home to AZ and we got the jackpot with this cafe! I Everything we ordered was delicious! We tried the smoothies which were super flavorful and natural tasting. The avocado bagel was amazing, they have tons of options for bagels and bagel sandwiches! Coffee was insanely good and was loved by my tween coffee connoisseurs who ordered a Snickers Latte and Caramel Macchiato. They have lots of milk alternatives and gluten free options, even gluten free bagels! The Ocean bowl was so so tasty! They have different sized bowls so you can try a little of everything. The caprese empanada was delish and we each got a jalapeño ham and cheese stuffed croissant. They have lots of seating outside to enjoy the beautiful Cali weather with shade. They are dog friendly. Service was quick and friendly. We will definitely be back!

    Fast, friendly, and close to the beach! Great Mexican mocha coffee and the banana nut bread was delicious. I need to go back to try an açaí bowl!

    Convenient distance from my hotel so walked here and got the iced s'mores latte with coconut milk and sausage, egg, and cheese bagel. Staff was nice. It was pretty busy so took a little while to get my bagel sandwich but they got the latte out quick. Some seating is available but all outside so recommend going during good weather! Close to the beach so took my order to go and enjoyed breakfast at the beach:)

    Ocean Bowl

    I came on vacation a few days ago and we were there every morning, their food is delicious and they have fast service. We loved the ocean bowl and bagels!

    The spinach cheese stuffed croissant was piping hot and cheesy with sun dried tomatoes! The soy chorizo egg and cheese empanada was delicious and tasted similar to real chorizo. Finally the cold brew with vanilla was strong and refreshing! The boys were friendly and had great customer service. The outdoor seating was so nice for a quick bite.

    Ocean bowl.. I had already started eating it. They have several tables and a bench out there atop turf grassing. It's a nice set up outside.

    A super convenient location especially since the first 2 cafe/restaurants were closed on that street for some reason. It was a nice day to sit outside anyway and I really wanted some fruit. The fellow who helped me was so helpful and personable.. which contributed to this 5 star rating. They had a good looking menu. I ordered the Ocean bowl and I loved that it wasn't too sweet. I was looking to grab a quick bite to eat before taking my pup to the dog beach down the street. I'd definitely go back again!

    This place is cute! We came for bagels, acai bowls, and coffee and the bowls and coffee were really good! I also got the California bagel sandwich with turkey cause their eggs are premade not fresh. But the service was friendly, but there were only 3 people working and we had a group of 4 so it took a little bit but I'd visit again for the acai bowls!

Just like a yogurt place pick a size pick a bade and add your toppings. I recommend to add the Leite Ninho, which is a milk powder. Sounds weird to add that but it's a good addition. Service is on par. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff is always on site. It can get busy at times and you might have to wait but it's well worth it. If time permits, we eat there but normally we take it to go. Great place to sit down and enjoy your açai.

I placed an order ahead of time and showed up about 25 minutes later thinking it would be ready. When I checked in, a younger employee told me it would be another 10 minutes. Annoying, but okay. The parking situation around here is already a nightmare, so I really wasn't thrilled about having to stand around waiting even longer. Well, those 10 minutes turned into 25. During that time, I watched multiple people walk in, place orders after I had already checked in, and receive their food before me. The crazy part? It wasn't even busy. There was no line out the door, no rush, no obvious reason for such a ridiculous delay. After waiting long enough, I finally went up to an older gentleman working there (I'm assuming the owner) and politely explained that I had been waiting a very long time and was confused why people ordering after me were getting their food first. Instead of apologizing or even acknowledging the mistake, he was rude, dismissive, and acted like I was inconveniencing him for asking about an order that should have been ready ages ago. Then, after another 10 minutes, my bowls were finally ready. In total, I waited about 35 minutes after checking in for pickup. To top it all off, the older gentleman practically shoved the bowls at me without so much as a "sorry for the wait." Look, delays happen. Mistakes happen. What bothered me was the complete lack of communication, accountability, and basic customer service. If you're running behind, just be honest about it. Don't tell someone 10 minutes when it's really going to be over half an hour. The açaí is good, but not nearly good enough to make up for being treated like an annoyance. There are plenty of other places in San Diego serving great bowls without the attitude.

Retro vibes, free arcade games, and an atmosphere that feels more like a hangout than a restaurant, in a good way. Extra credit for actually letting you play the games instead of just using them as decor. I was not very hungry, so I went with the Arctik Monkey smoothie with peanut butter and chocolate. Straight up delicious and absolutely something I would order again without hesitation. My wife ordered the Feta y Verdes veggie wrap, and even she was surprised by how good it was, which says a lot because she knows her veggies. Fresh, flavorful, and genuinely satisfying. Veggie lovers, consider this your official heads up. The arcade lineup is solid too. Pac Man, Mortal Kombat II, The Simpsons, a classic Star Wars Atari cabinet, plus others. Waiting for food did not feel like waiting. It felt like killing time in the best possible way. One quick warning. The hip hop playlist is not radio edited. Totally fine for adults, but if you are bringing kids, just know you might be explaining some lyrics on the drive home. Overall, fun spot, good food, strong throwback energy. I would definitely come back.

    Yum! I don't think I've ever had a "pure" açaí bowl before (usually mixed with blueberries,…read morestrawberries, etc.), but I'm a big fan now. This little store is inside the Bakeshop by Coco Playa so the sign is hard to spot. They sell açaí bowls (in a cup) and smoothies + Brazilian cheese bread :) The acai is smooth and creamy, and I liked how it was sweet (honey added) and didn't melt very quickly. Super tasty! They do a good job layering on the toppings and making the cup look pretty. There's an option to do half acai and half coconut sorbet; the sorbet was super sweet and packed a punch of coconut flavor-- so good and refreshing! The blueberries seemed thawed from frozen so some of them were still frosty but they were still sweet. MT really enjoyed the pistachio butter too. They did away with their Tuesday special of unlimited toppings, but now you get unlimited regular toppings everyday with regular+ sizes. Premium options (like protein powder, pistachio butter, almond butter, goji berries, etc) come with an additional cost. Definitely pricey but a special, fun, and tasty treat! We enjoyed Açaí Carioca so much we went 3 times in a week! This location has better parking (a shopping plaza lot), was less busy, friendlier service, and had a few seats outside compared to their other location. If you're craving a refreshing and somewhat healthy treat, check this place out!
