This place definitely earns the ratings it has gotten…read more We ordered the Seoul Bowl, Po Boy Sandwich, Sunset Smoothie and a side of Grilled Organic Tempeh. Everything was fresh, good portions and most importantly actually flavorful. The Seoul Bowl was the healthier option and still had plenty of flavor. The Po Boy sandwich was my fav.. not exactly "health food" but not overly heavy either. Just the right balance. I had never tried pea protein shrimp before so I was a little skeptical but it was surprisingly delicious and worked really well in the sandwich. We both like our food spicy and they were great about customizing it for us. They added jalapeños to my sandwich and gave us spicy mayo on the side which pretty much made the meal perfect for our taste. The grilled organic tempeh was the only thing I personally found a little bland but my wife really liked it so probably more of a preference thing than an issue with the dish. The Sunset Smoothie was thick, tasted great and was a very good portion. Yes, prices are definitely on the higher side but unlike some other places in the area where you pay premium prices and leave wondering why, here the portions and especially the quality made it worth it. We would definitely come back.

Second fave was the drunk cauliflower. And then the tikka masala. The Tikka was still good but maybe not exactly what I was expecting - very veggie heavy plate. They have so many more items on their menu I'd love to try. Oh and the teas come in a really cute beaker setup, and they can make to your desired sweetness. It's a cute little spot, space is clean, and they have a bathroom for customers. There's a small parking lot in the shopping center where you can park for free too, yay!

I had them make the smoothie without collagen as that is a beef product. It literally took 21 minutes on a Wednesday. It was ok, a little sweet with the stevia. I asked how many calories and they wouldn't tell me. Only that it's meant as a "meal replacement " and is between 500-1200 calories. Oof! I'll stick with the healthy superfruit smoothie from Toastique. The salad was good with the figs standing out and the sandwich was delicious. Lots of avocados. Ambiance: everyone is there for the prepared foods and smoothies. The grocery aisles were fairly empty. There's a few bar stools by the entrance so we ate there but most take to go. Parking: very small light with complimentary valet. Luckily we got a spot. Note there's a 30 minute parking limit! Price: $53 for the above 3 items.

I went with the Butcher's mushroom, quinoa & beet burger. And it didn't disappoint. They do serve an Impossible Burger, but I would recommend the beet burger. Easily one of the best vegetarian burgers I've ever had. And they don't skimp on the size. Got the special sauce on the side just in case I didn't like it. It was so good that I was dipping my potatoes in it. I will definitely go back and try the breakfast.

And then there was poop toilet paper in the bathroom trash can. It was noticeable because it was filed to the top and was facing upwards. Both single stalls were occupied for 8 minutes. Making it seem like it impossible to wash my hands. My cloth napkin at the table had a brown stain on it. After seeing poop I couldn't stop thinking about poop. The food is over priced the dishes are no big deal. I would not return again. I liked the outdoor patio.

I've been a huge fan of Paradise Bowls for years, but going to the Manhattan Beach location was…read morealways tough because parking there can be such a nightmare with how busy it gets. So when I found out they opened a location in the Marina, I was beyond excited! The portions are incredible, and they never skimp on toppings. Every bowl is practically overflowing! Everything always tastes so fresh, and you can really tell they use quality ingredients. The staff is also amazing: friendly, welcoming, and genuinely upbeat. Every time I walk in, I'm greeted warmly and feel instantly welcomed. If you've never tried Paradise Bowls before, you absolutely need to. My personal favorite is the Chocolate Arc, but they have a great variety of options and tons of ways to customize your bowl exactly how you like it. 10/10 every single time!

They had an imaculate takeaway drink fridge, modern decor, plenty of little extras for snacks, supplements, etc. Located between Chipotle and Warburg Parker in the Marina shopping center. They have smoothies, bowls and toasts. Some drinks and snackables too, like pretzels, bags of granola, etc. Service was a little slow, but they were VERY nice. O waited about 15 mins. The line was a bit long, so I opted to place my order online (which quotes a longer wait than in-person:/ and they prioritized me after I asked, even though they didn't have to:) I'm a sucker for a good customer experience. The bowl itself, very good! Personal preference for a more solid, ice cream texture and this was more soft, but still good. My favorite bowl is from SunLife Organics and this is just below that for me. I can't tell if the honey is good quality:/ ...(owner comment here?) but everything else is tops!

We hadn't ordered one since they installed their new ordering system so using it was a new and delightful experience. We got to order and pay for the sandwiches right away. My sandwich was an artisanal masterpiece. I wept after devouring it and I still think it of often. I think my "ingredients" were as follows: real mayo, spicy mustard, spicy chicken breast, real bacon, sprouts, lettuce, tomato, and Gouda cheese". As always, I got a pickle spear and cold macaroni salad on the side. It was like the type of sandwich you present to someone after they've done a job well.

I love coming here to shop for my health needs for me and my family…read more Everything is very healthy and easy to find. I especially love getting the fresh juices and smoothies! The only bad part is the parking can be really bad because the lot is very small and LA drivers are very rude and will not let you in or cut you off. It's also super crowded and busy because the space is small and you're bound to bump into people so just be mindful of the space because it's not a huge market. It used to be located in the Marina, which had a nicer location overall, so anyways this is the new location.

Instead of sticking with one base, we combined açaí, agave coconut, and pitaya. From there, we added strawberry, banana, mango, pineapple, blueberries, paçoca, granola, almond granola, honey, and agave. If you like customizing your bowls, there's a lot to work with here. We also tried the Pitaya Passion Smoothie, which combines strawberry, pineapple, passion fruit, pitaya base, and mango juice. One thing I didn't initially associate with an açaí shop was empanadas, so we went savory and ordered both the beef and chicken empanadas as well. It made the order feel like more than just stopping in for a bowl or smoothie. Overall, Ubatuba gives you plenty of choices, especially if you want to mix different bases, fruits, and toppings rather than ordering the same açaí combination every time.

The tropical soft serve was so flavorful and one of my favorites! I also loved the detox tonic, I'm a lavender lover so that one was a nice touch. I bought the Beauty Shot, the Detox Tonic, and the Unwind Tonic. SERVICE That was the best service I've ever received on a sidewalk in my life. Morgan was sooooo accommodating and let me try as many different things as I wanted. She made great suggestions based off my needs and even helped me pick the things I'd be buying. She sold me on so many things just by giving me the full experience. AMBIANCE It was a nice storefront setup and an ideal location, perfect for a Sunday stroll. I'd definitely visit this location to be helped by her any day. I'd suggest trying out this place especially if you drink pressed juice often. Also, they have a membership club with some great perks that can help you save money if you buy pressed juices/shots often. The baristas are friendly and the drinks/food are delicious!

My smoothie was absolutely delicious, like a jolt of energy! Late Night Date Smoothie | Cute name & right away, the ingredients had me at hello, especially when the fruit Medjool dates were mentioned! I love dates, so yummy! The Late Night Date smoothie includes maca, almond butter, bananas, coconut milk, pecans & cacao nibs! Yum!! I love that it's a thick smoothie as well! This smoothie packs a powerful punch, almost felt like liquid energy & helped with my jet lag almost immediately on my second visit in July! Inside | Loved the reggae music playing on one of my visits!! The surroundings inside includes plants, motivational/positive statements written with colorful chalk on a black chalkboard, as well as healthy snacks along the wall! While I'm wait inside, most people wait outside where there's more space or inside of their cars! Busy Bee | My friend and I were grateful to arrive at a time where there was only one person in front of us, and several people waiting! She enjoyed The Green Monster Drink! However, on my next visit, with major jet lag from traveling throughout Indonesia and South Korea, but craving a smoothie, there was an hour wait! Note | While I know of another popular place where everyone gets smoothies, in my opinion, this smoothie is the best! I've tried both! Also, incredibly flavorful and not too sweet, like the other! Also, glad I brought along my thick, reusable glass straw! Customer Service | Super friendly on both visits, in June and July! On my first visit, woman at the counter, helped me decide on a smoothie, because there were just so many options! I told her to make it in a way that she loves and it was perfect, and I got the same thing on my second visit! Gentleman at the counter on my second visit was super friendly as well! The tall gentleman making the smoothie seems very chill and relaxed! All-around good vibes here! Even people waiting in the line were friendly on both visits! Overall | Yes, please! I'm already craving another flavorful smoothie as we speak, as the smoothies are fueled with goodness! I'm going to make myself try another flavor with a cute name on my next visit! Let's go!
