Ilove açaí, and for me the best açaí in California is Açaí Republic. The taste reminds me of the same flavor we have in Brazil.

I drank it down fast and would like to try other things, but it's one of those sorts that keeps you in a holding pattern I suspect.

I thought to myself that it's fine, I'll opt for the plant-based protein smoothie options, so I asked for the açaí smoothie.

I was told that each scoop contains 0.5g of protein. I was like, maybe they don't understand my question, so I asked once again how many grams of protein does the "protein smoothie" come with and they continue with 0.5 grams. I'm confused because that wouldn't make it a PROTEIN smoothie. How can 1 scoop contain just half a gram of protein!? I kindly thanked them and walked out. I had to go to another smoothie place.

This is my first visit TO JUJUBAR. I've read lots of mixed reviews of this place, but want to compare it to my favorite place, BANZAI BOWLS. I ordered a large acai POWER ALMOND BOWL. A nice feature here is that they have extra scoops of peanuts, almonds, chocolate chips, cranberries and raisins that one can add to their bowls. With the POWER ALMOND BOWL I ordered, almond butter is mixed with the acai, so I am sure it will alter the taste and texture, so please keep that in mind when interpreting my review or using it as a study for your college thesis. The acai is yummy, smooth and not freezing cold Toppings seem plentiful. Their regular size bowls seem to be the same size/quantity as Banzai Bowls, but their large bowls seem smaller. Overall, I will come here again. BTW: They have punch cards for frequent visitors read more

Came here on a whim and was kind of disappointed. Wanted something quick to snack on at 7am. Ever hear of the saying quantity over quality? I was immediately presented with too many options for acai bowls (as mentioned by other Yelpers). Ended up getting the classic acai bowl. Ever tasted a McDonalds smoothie? The bowl was of the same consistency and color. It was good, but I wasn't "wowed" by the taste. For $7-8 I expected a bit more. They offer free toppings (fruit, granola, honey). Customer service: not good. Cashier wasn't friendly. Maybe it was early, but a fake smile would have been nice. All in all, stick with your fast food parfaits. read more

everything is good about this place taste and price wise. it is big cup of acai with a lot of fresh fruits and granola. it is my after-surf food every time i surf Newport beach. the only thing i don't like is that it is served in a cup. so the first few spoons you cant really get to the acai unless you are ok with dropping some of the fruit on the table. it is a sacrifice of fruit vs acai. too bad. served it in a bowl so it is easier to mix. read more
