Simple decor with bright lights. You'll have to walk straight in and right to order. I was greeted immediately with a smile and nice welcome upon entry. Thank you young lady! They have their house-created favorites such as Amazon, Cacao, Mango Chamoy, Dragon, Green Goodness, Island, Tropical, and Very Berry Bowls or you may build your own (BYO) acai or fruit bowl. BYO works like this... you choose a size (12 oz $11, 16 oz $13, 24 oz $15 (this is a steal!), select up to two bases (acai, pitaya, matcha, coconut, cacao, and selective fruits), then fill the bowl with the toppings you want. You pay for the size you want, not for each topping that fits inside the bowl. Bases are made without cane sugar and granolas are certified gluten free. I went with the BYO 16 oz option. I was tempted to get the 24 oz for an extra $2, but I didn't. Now that I think back, I should have gone BIG. I know better next time. Anyway, got the coconut and mango bases plus a whole lot of toppings that filled the bowl to the top. It was so refreshingly good and delicious. Love the natural flavors all around from bases to toppings. Thank you Pur Bowls! Btw, this LB location opens until 1 AM daily. Come get you some acai bowl while burning the midnight oil! I'll sure to be back the next time when I'm in the LB area.

I'm glad this place opened up in my hometown. Cerritos was definitely lacking an açaí place and Island Bodega fills the void. You can't go wrong customizing your own bowl with unlimited toppings for free! The small is $7 and is worth it. They pack your bowl with whatever bases you'd like from acai, pitaya, blue island, matcha, and coconut cream. I got the açaí and blue island and excited to try the other flavors next time. They sure don't skimp on the toppings here and you can get as many toppings as you'd like. When I went here one girl got literally everything and the guy Jeff made the bowl look so aesthetic. There's another girl here too that is super patient and has the best customer service she's Asian with glasses. Parking here is a little easier to find since it's on the corner lot so you can utilize Aldis parking or behind the building. Don't forget to try their island bodega latte iced. It's def my top 3 coffees of all time. It just blends in together so smoothly and I can't find this flavor anywhere else! I'm definitely going to frequent Island Bodega when I can cause it makes a good meal replacement for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. But today it was my dessert! P.S they got the best blue chia seed pudding ever. I can eat that by itself. read more

Island Bodega is an absolute must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in something both sweet and satisfying. The ambiance is inviting with a clean, open-concept design, where all the açaí ingredients are clearly displayed, making it easy to order. The staff is friendly and helpful, even allowing you to sample the bases of the bowls before making your choice. The variety here is fantastic. You can layer different flavors to create your perfect bowl. My personal favorite is the coconut cream and mango base--rich, refreshing, and just right! The chocolate and vanilla chia pudding options are also excellent, adding a unique twist to your bowl. The fruit choices are top-notch, with options like banana, strawberry, and kiwi. The toppings are where Island Bodega really shines, offering everything from hemp granola, toasted coconut, and cashews to bee pollen, pumpkin seeds, and cashew butter. The combinations are endless, and they're all so delicious--seriously, so bomb! The space is cozy, with about 3-4 high top tables, which adds to its charm. If you looking for something sweet with fresh ingredients this is the place. I highly recommend giving it a try! read more

Island Bodega, you've stolen my heart! I'm obsessed with your açaí bowls, and Gabby, you're the real MVP! The vibrant colors and lively atmosphere drew me in. But it's the food that kept me coming back for more. The Açaí Bowls are a GAME CHANGER- the perfect blend of creamy, sweet, and tangy. I mean who else can make frozen fruit taste like a tropical paradise? But what truly sets Island Bodega apart is the exceptional service. Gabby, your warmth, kindness, and infectious smile make every visit feel like a reunion. You take the time to get to know your customers, offered personalized recommendation, and make sure everyone leaves feeling satisfied and happy. Your passion for the food and the community is palpable, and it's clear that you're exactly where you're meant to be. Gabby and the entire Island Bodega team, please know that you're making a real difference in the lives of your customers. Your dedication to serving delicious food and creating a welcoming atmosphere is truly appreciate. I'll be back for more- and I'll bring friend ! read more

I had the most delicious acai bowl ever at Island Bodega. It was so refreshing and totally energizing. I ordered the blue chia bowl, which had acai, matcha, blue chia, banana, strawberry, blueberries, and kiwi. The fruits were super fresh and the toppings were generous. I loved the hemp granola and the cacao nibs that added some crunch and flavor. The bowl was also very filling and satisfying. The customer service was very nice and friendly. They greeted me with a smile and took my order quickly. The shop was clean and cozy, with lots of plants and a good vibe. I enjoyed sitting at the counter and watching them make the bowls. Island Bodega is definitely my new favorite spot for acai bowls. They have a great selection of bases, fruits, and toppings, and you can also create your own bowl if you want. They also have shaved ice, coffee, tea, and other drinks. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves healthy and tasty food. read more

I hope this message finds you well. I have been a regular customer at your location for the past year, but I must express my disappointment with the service and food quality over the last two months. The service has noticeably declined, with employees being unpleasant and lacking basic courtesy. Additionally, my family and I are very dissatisfied with the quality of the bananas you now carry. We strongly prefer fresh, firm bananas, but recently, the only option has been overly ripened ones. Moreover, I've noticed a decline in the portion sizes, particularly with how skimpy the bowls are layered, which leaves us feeling like we're not getting the same value we once did. While I don't intend to return at this point, I wanted to provide this feedback privately, as I believe your business has the potential to please the community once again with some adjustments. read more

First thing you'll notice is the lit up turtle on the wall and window which is a nice touch for pics. They had ENDLESS amount of toppings and drizzles condiments, I've had a couple of acai bowls in Hawaii but having it closer to home less than 3 miles is a kudo!

Island Bodega is a great spot, especially for those who love açaí bowls--even if you're not typically a fan, this place might change your mind. Their portions are generous, giving you good value for your money. The ambiance inside is inviting, with plenty of seating options, making it a nice spot to relax. The staff is super friendly and always ready to offer helpful recommendations. The only downside is that the parking lot, while large, can get crowded during peak times like nights and weekends. Also, their mobile app could use some improvements--it doesn't always allow me to scan my receipts for points, which is a bit frustrating. Overall, a solid experience with just a couple of areas for improvement. read more

Knead Donuts, located in the bustling Cerritos Promenade, has been serving artisan donuts in the city for several years, now.

Strawberry Crunch- Highly enjoyable, topped with a slice of fresh strawberry, the Strawberry Crunch didn't feel as guilty as a double chocolate covered everything donut. The crumbs sprinkled on top providing texture to the fluffy donut, and I was quite happy with my pick. My initial visit was a 2 years ago. On my more recent occasion, I stopped by to see what's new. Knead closes at 1pm on weekdays (Monday closed, till 9pm Sat & Sun), and being approximately 30 minutes to close, two boxes of assorted donuts were left to choose from. Knead's Dubai Chocolate donut was a whopping $8! I tried to haggle the price down, both individually or with another donut, to no avail. No way was I planning to buy a whole box, either. Prices vary around $6-$8. Aware prices have gone up everywhere, that's still too much, in my summation, for donuts. In addition, not being a big donut guy, I don't foresee being a frequent customer. Knead Donuts does sell beautifully crafted donuts, which would satisfy even the most critical sugar junkie, but with premium pricing attached to each donut, can't justify the money spent, for my needs.

They take the cream mixture to the frozen surface and start mixing all the ingredients until it becomes frozen and then they roll it up to little rolled ice cream scrolls. It was very tasty and light. The guy was very nice because usually you can only do one flavor, but my wife sweet talked the guy and he added the coffee to give it the salted caramel coffee ice cream.

I love this place!!…read more The owner she is super sweet and runs the shop alone and I really appreciate and respect her for it! Her bingsoo I the softest most flavorful one I've ever had. It wasn't too sweet the amount of tart strawberry was perfect. The taiyaki was fresh and nearly burned me going down. If you need a nice cold treat this is hard to beat, the only thing is, the shop is in the food court within the super market so it's easy to miss it and it shares seating with the other restaurants. Really a hidden gem and would really recommend checking it out.

What a hidden gem! I accidentally stumbled upon this little dessert shop tucked inside the Korean…read moremarket, and I'm so glad I did. It has a very homemade feel, and everything tasted like it was made with care. The shaved ice was the star of the visit. Unlike the crunchy, icy shaved ice you find at many places, this one was incredibly smooth, creamy, and milky--it practically melted in your mouth. The texture alone makes it worth coming back for. If you're already shopping at the market, definitely take a few extra minutes to stop by for dessert. It's refreshing, satisfying, and one of those hidden spots you almost don't want to tell anyone about. I'll definitely be returning the next time I'm craving a soft, creamy shaved ice. They only take cash when I visited.

After the recommendation from Duncan, behind the register, my friend got the mango sticky rice and I got the Milo milk tea. Mango sticky rice: Mango sticky rice inspired smoothie topped with sago pearls and coconut cream This was yummy! If you like sweet, then this one's for you. Not crazy sweet but sweet. Milo milk tea: Chocolate malt topped with milo powder, a childhood favorite Just the name made my eyes light up and reminded me of the Milo milk chocolate my mom would make me when I was a kid. Many other flavors and we'll definitely back to try them all! Staff were so friendly and helpful. Thank you Duncan for the recommendations! 10/10 see you again soon Boba Homies!

I love all the textures and flavors. Service is 10/10. The cashier/barista was very kind and accommodating. They also had a cute trinket trade / shelf on the side. My kids loved looking through all of the items. Will be back to try more!

BEST. BANANA. LATTE…read more I die for this latte, it's perfect. Please don't ever take this off the menu.

Unfortunately, they were out of the two things I wanted aside from the earl grey latte, which is…read morewhat they're known for. They were out of chai and strawberry syrup for the matcha. I was dismayed but oh well, I decided to just buy one drink and hope it's good enough for me and my husband. The earl grey latte ended up just being ok, not as much of the bergamot as I would like. I think it's because they use a syrup rather than actual tea. So it's more of a traditional latte than a tea latte. I also ordered a chocolate chip cookie and a ham&cheese croissant. They were both warmed up and I would say the chocolate chip cookie got messy with the melted chocolate chips. I liked the croissant though! It was small but tasty. Would I return? Maybe if they offered chai. But I wouldn't go out of my way.

Gimme the strong stuff, unfiltered!…read more Cafe Palestina recently opened up, wisely adjacent to Cerritos College & across the street from Home Depot (to caffeinate students & laborers, alike). I was feeling low energy, and needed a midday boost. so the stars aligned for my first visit to Cafe Palestina. Iced Turkish Coffee - Grinds swishing in the cup, the iced Turkish coffee lifted my spirits. For an additional 89 cents, I added almond milk to provide creaminess, and I was in caffeinated bliss. Harissa- Coffee always pairs well with a pastry, and the harissa was the perfect accoutrement. Semolina-based, with syrup, pistachios and whatnot, the harissa was a delightful treat, which made me happy. Service was good. The staff were friendly & hospitable, giving recommendations for those new to the cafe. There is a good amount of seating inside. The cafe is long, with tables on each side. There is a soon to be open Cafe Palestina Study Hall, next door. Parking is via a shared private lot. Cafe Palestina is a great coffee & tea shop, which I look forward to becoming a regular. Good vibes, good drinks & good desserts, I'm anticipating what to try next. Highly recommend!

The baristas were a full bar of very kind women who were attentive, gave me recommendations (as it was my first time), and were friendly. I got the pistachio and my parents tried the biscoff. We really really enjoyed them both, my parents also tried the dubai cheesecake. they have plenty of flavors like mango and many many other offerings. they found it very flavorful with a good amount of crunch interacting with the thick rich creamy cheese cake, the pistachio cream and all the layers were nice. we will stop by again for sure - I hope many college students get to come by and use the space too!
