The bad: I wouldn't come to this place for a smoothie. It took over 10 min for a smoothie and I was one of 2 customers in the establishment. My smoothie tasted like frozen banana and not much else, which was sad given it was 12 bucks! The 2 employees of the establishment looked lost when I asked them questions about the menu and in general did not seem very approachable. I can't speak to the açaí bowls (they did look tasty) but 100% will not be purchasing another smoothie from this establishment.

The inside was quite large and mostly had people stopping in for pick up orders and smoothies. Their menu offers the same ingredients in burrito or bowl form as well as salad or wrap form. The menu clearly outlines the item's protein, fiber and caloric counts to also consider. While most items have a recommended protein, you can switch it out for another choice. My husband and I each got a Mexicali Burrito; his with chicken and mind with tofu. It was a good sized portion and ingredients were fresh & well mixed inside. I did get a huge kale steam in my burrito but fished it out. While I thought the flavors were good, it didn't leave me craving to come back. I did leave feeling full but not weighed down like most fast casual spots.

Staff was really friendly too, didn't feel rushed or anything. I ordered the hot chocolate and... wow. First thing, the size. I've never seen a cup that big at a coffee shop. Pretty sure it healed my soul right away. Taste wise, super smooth. Nice and hot. Had light cinnamon notes that show up after a sip. Not overly sweet either, which I liked. Creamy texture, almost like melted chocolate but lighter. They even did latte art on top and served it in this artisan cup. Looked way too nice for something I was about to destroy in five minutes. Came for chocolate, left spiritually repaired. Honestly might come back next time my soul needs maintenance.

Tried the pistachio latte and have to admit I was a little disappointed the presentation wasn't as nice as the photos on their page though. I will give them another try if I'm in the area again.

TL,DR * slow service…read more* overpriced * one worker was running the place by themselves * good taste at least Long version: I went into this place with high hopes based on their reviews. My food took over 30 minutes to be made. The food was good but it was $12 for a tiny bowl that fell apart when I opened it, way over priced for the amount received. I had to use the lid as a second bowl. Management should just order larger bowls. $1 upcharge for substitution of almonds instead of coconut. The poor worker was there all by herself with a line to the door. If they're understaffed the manager/owner should be helping but there was no manager on duty, which is why I'm writing this. They know they are understaffed. It's not fair to the worker to deal with poor management.

I've been eating at Bonita bowl for close to a couple years now. I love their Bali acai bowls. The…read moreissue this past year has been consistency which is so sad. When we first started coming here, the base was blended so smooth, the granola was always fresh and tasty, and the ratio to acai blend vs toppings was great! My husband and I grabbed 2 bowls last night and these 2 were the worst ones we've had. I probably won't be back for a while. The consistency of the açaí bowl wasn't smooth. A little grainy and potentially too much ice mixed it. It barely had flavor. The granola was almost stale. It tasted like it was sitting out for a very long time uncovered. The ratio of smoothie to topping ratio was also terrible. It was like they filled the sides with acai mix, filled the center up with granola, it was very unpleasant. This was the first time my husband and I actually threw our bowls out, it was that bad. I do hope they get to how they used to. With the increased prices, they need to maintain quality, and quality has been severely lacking. I try to support my local businesses because I know it's not easy being forced to raise prices given this economy, but if you cut on quality you won't retain my business. Truly hoping this place changes!

I wish they opened up earlier than 8am during the week. I typically have coffee around 630-7am but I can understand why they open at 8am if they aren't busy until 8-9ish. I stopped in a little after 8 and the door was still locked. I'm going to guess I was the first customer of the day. When I walked in there was a sewer stench that was over powering. My guess is this might be normal for them - 1 of the staff members was spraying Lysol to get rid of the smell. I ordered via the front counter and got the rose Cardamom latte. This drink is on the pricey side, $8 without having a non dairy milk substitute. The flavor makes up for it though. It was delicious and refreshing!

The homemade salsa was also just alright; some pico de gallo and a little sriracha would've added the extra flavor it needed. We also had the Senior Special VIP, and everything on that plate tasted very good. The HB chicken club wrap was another standout--really flavorful and well put together. It came with a side of fruit that didn't look the best, but the wrap itself made up for it. For drinks, we had water, tomato juice, and an iced vanilla latte. The latte had way too much vanilla and was overly sweet for my taste. Service was great--our waiter was attentive, the restaurant was clean, and the food came out quickly. I'd come back to try their French toast next time.

I seriously haven't had a sandwich taste this good in a long time--a truly smart choice. ​I was curious, so I asked the waitress about it. She confirmed there was no special sauce, just mayo. She said the magic might be in their "brown berry multi-grain" bread. Whatever the secret is, I am thrilled with the taste and highly recommend trying this sandwich.

The kindness and attentiveness of our waitress made the experience warm and welcoming, and it's the main reason I'll be rushing back soon.

Another half hour passed, with our wait time now being TWO full hours, when we again checked in and they said we were next in line. After another 15 minutes, we just asked then to be honest since we were dining with 4 (now starving) kids, and they figured something out to be able to seat us (spoiler alert- they sat our party of 7 at a 4 person table). Now on to the positives... service was fantastic, food was fantastic, and the ambiance was lively and very family friendly. The different flavored mimosas were perfect, they had a great kids menu, including Mickey Mouse pancakes, and my whole group left stuffed and happy. Stray Hen would have been such an easy 5 stars had it not been for the more than double wait time with no explanation. Hopefully our next visit is better and I can update accordingly!
