Tropical Tribe has the BEST acai bowls hands down. Honestly this is the only place I have gone to…read morefor açaí bowls for the past 5 years. Like so good my husband and I would come here at least once a week My go-to order is the PB Dream Brazilian-Base Bowl with a side of their cheese bread. The açaí has a smooth, authentic consistency (not overly icy or sorbet-like), and it doesn't taste overly sweet like some places do. The fruit is always fresh, and everything consistently tastes amazing every.single.time.

There was a bit of a mix up with my order. I ordered a Pineapple Paradise açai bowl with no coconut…read moreshavings but when they called my name I was served the premium bowl which I took the picture of. I went back and they took the bowl and gave me the Pineapple one but missed my request to remove the coconut shavings. I felt bad to ask again so I tried my best to remove the coconut pieces myself. The açai itself was super refreshing and the iced mocha was pretty good too. Other than the mix up, the food was good but I recommend getting a bigger portion one because the small was not filling enough.

Surprised to find that this tiny shop was located within the shopping villages connecting the Hilton resorts and was primarily known for their acai bowls. When we walked there, live music was playing and there was plenty of seating outdoors. Ordered the shoyu tako poke bowl. Originally wanted to order without rice, just on its own, but that wasn't exactly an option and I'm really glad things worked out the way they did, because their rice is amazing lol. Served fresh and warm, nice and chewy (I hate soggy rice!) and intentionally seasoned underneath your poke with a little drizzle of sweet soy sauce, so the whole bowl is delicious from top to bottom. Tako was so soft and perfectly seasoned and flavorful. Really impressed and quick service too. Would def come again!

Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.

Best. Açai. Bowl. Ever…read more Honestly this place really does live up to the hype. Overall: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Açai Bowl - 5/5 - So sweet, and naturally at that, there's no added sugar to the açai. It's so tasty and healthy at the same time. There is a bar with extra toppings. Waffle - 5/5 - The waffle was notable too and only a $2 addition to the meal. So good. Eggs - 4.5/5 - Eggs were great too... perfectly cooked, Gordon Ramsey style. Hot dogs were hot dogs. If there's one to skip out, it's this, but It was really good still. Service - 5/5 - Truly all such friendly workers. Everyone was super sweet and had the aloha vibe. Made us love the place even more. Ambiance - 4/5 - Positive vibes and underground in a mall food court type of setting. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting! Mahalo for everything.

TLDR: Long lines even at opening, customizable options but consistently good!…read more Can't say I haven't had authentic acai up until this point. For some reason, I totally forgot that good acai could be found in Hawaii!! Hello!! Its not just the fresh fish ya'll I walked here and there was still a line by 7, and even longer one when I went the next day, but it does move quite fast, especially with some of the workers letting people know they have a sit down resturant next door so just food for thought if you want more actual food options! As it stands they have quite an extensive list of juice, coffee, acai. I decided to go with a more basic route but instead subbing my fruit for what was in season which was mango, lilikoi and lychee. You order at the front and they call your number. They have some seating around as well but if you're at the hawaiian center you can just sit downstairs. The fruit alone was out of this world. I was actually so focused on that I wasn't even thinking about if the acai was good which I think it was! It comes out rather creamy, not frozen or icy. The price is a little steeper than what I've had in the past but honestly the fresh fruit alone made it extremely worth it. A regular sized bowl was quite filling! I came back the next day and it was still just as good. I know some people probably prefer different locations than others but I can rep this one for sure. Its in a very touristy place, maybe even the mecca so if you want to avoid that then avoid any location in waikiki

Personally didn't like it much, it was almost too plain? The purée was needed but it was very concentrated at the bottom and tasted alcoholic bc it was souped... and once you're near the bottom it's all melted and soupy... I prefer acai bowl. The pineapple has got to be canned... it was old tasting and syrupy... I wouldn't get it again, but I can see others liking it, I would prefer going to a chain froyo spot that is sweeter or has better toppings. Inside has many seats and a bar with high top chairs. Cute place to do work and get a nice drink.

It's a little tricky to find, but that seemed to be a theme at this rather poorly labeled mall which had few directories. Eventually we found it, though! It's quite small with only a few tables, but the decor is very cool and Hawaiian inside. The staff were also very friendly and explained different aspects of the various beverage since this was our first time visiting. I had the frozen banana kona mocha which was really pleasant and extremely refreshing on a warm tropical day after strolling around this largely open air mall. The drink was extremely smooth and refreshing, although I will say it was a bit light on the banana flavor but still very good overall! This is a good option to grab a beverage during your Ala Moana shopping trip!

I appreciated that they didn't try to cram as many tables as possible into the space -- no bumping elbows with the next table. Good vibes, feels real. Got a cinnamon lovers French toast, Niu acai bowl, and Portuguese sausage. 5 out of 5! Cinnamon lovers French toast is caramelized pineapple (with cinnamon, of course) on French toast. They're not kidding about cinnamon lovers. The amount of cinnamon teeters on the brink of too much. The caramelized pineapple's super sweet, almost too sweet. Amazing combo. They nailed it. Niu acai -- fruit's fresh, acai's smooth, good portion & ratio. The coconut mousse's a great touch -- light & not too sweet, gives it that extra, dessert-esque oomph. Portuguese sausage -- I don't think we've met a Portuguese sausage we didn't like. Always a winner. Would definitely come back if there wasn't much wait!
