Has the perfect amount of texture and creaminess from the cashew cream cheese. Wouldn't think it's an alternative at all, tasted delish!

I paid extra for almond butter and I was given what seemed to be a whole cup of it on top. While I appreciate getting my extra dollar's worth, it was far too much almond butter and I left half of the bowl unfinished because it was just almond butter and granola clustered together.

The parking lot was packed on a Sunday morning, but I parked curbside with my hazards on without a problem. I ordered one juice and one smoothie (sorry I didn't get the names), both of which were delicious! The juice was crisp and refreshing, a perfect start to the day. The smoothie was made with hemp milk which made it smooth and very creamy instead of tart like some other smoothie joints. The woman at the counter was very helpful and answered all my questions about the beverages before I placed my order. She even topped my juice off while I waited for her to make the smoothie. Great find!

They have a topping that caught my attention, all açaí places in Brazil have this, it's powder milk called "leite ninho". I was very impressed and happy to see that the owners made this place super authentic. I felt like going back to my hometown. My husband also ordered one and loved it as well.

I always get their Vanilla Freeze, which is just an "ice cream" version of their Vanilla drink. Tastes yummy and has a nice subtle sweet flavor due to the dates.

Inside, they offer seating upstairs which I thought was cool you could enjoy your ice cream there - but a lot of people (myself included) decided to eat it outside the store. Although the line is quite long, the servers are really prompt and helpful. They offer you samples and don't rush you at all to select what you would like. I appreciated how friendly they were and how helpful they were. We got these flavors: - Vanilla Bean: A classic choice but always delicious for a reason. Their version is perfectly creamy and excellent in vanilla flavor. - Eureka Lemon & Marionberry: I'm probably uncultured but I've never had a marionberry before! Regardless, I love fruity flavors and this lemon flavor is light, refreshing, and filled with the creamy delight I want from Ice Cream - Santa Barbara Strawberry: Their highlight!
