Kelly S.

My two favorite bowls are the electric pink and peanut butter pipeline. I prefer the pitaya over the açai. Paradise bowls is consistent and the price is fair for the portion you get / the ingredients they use. The staff are friendly and often local students. Good beach vibe.

Classic smoothies and açaí / pitaya bowl spot in downtown Manhattan Beach. Simple straight forward menu, small storefront with an ordering counter. Take your order and enjoy it at the beach! Limited metered parking around the area.

If you follow anyone who lives in or frequents Manhattan Beach, chances are you have seen them post a picture of a Paradise Bowl held up with the Manhattan Beach Pier in the background. I can't even hold them though, I was on the same sh*t. It was one of my last days in LA for a minute, so I took the pup down to get a bowl. I knew I was in good hands when one of the Gen-Z kids took my order and began making my Gaucho bowl. They always be cookin with acai bowls, coffees, and smoothies. I got a medium size ($12.50), but realized my error when I got handed my bowl as it was HUGE. Hefty portion sizes here. I mean you know I love a good portion but fruit is sneaky with sugar so I felt bad eating all that but what am I gonna do? Throw out perfectly good food? This bowl was BEAUTIFUL. Inspiringly beautiful. You probably think I'm being dramatic but look at the attached pic. An acai based topped with granola under loads of blueberries, strawberries, and sliced bananas with a fresh honey drizzle to finish. GOD DID! Me and the little man walked down to the strand, got the notorious pic with the bowl in front of the beach, took a seat, demolished the bowl and listened to music for a minute while the story likes came flooding in. It's like that... Ig @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews

Bikini smoothie
Katie U.

The amazing açaí bowls and smoothies are in high demand here. There is always a line but they have several staff working around the clock. They told us it would be about 15 min so we stepped outside to wait. We got the bikini smoothie and the gaucho açaí bowl. The ingredients were fresh and tasted so yummy. Would definitely recommend the medium sized bowl for the most value. The menu has so many good options for a refreshing snack.

I ordered this bowl and as you can see, the açaí is not even half of it, I almost didn't feel the taste. I paid for an AÇAÍ BOWL, not just granola and fruits. Very disappointing!

Guava pitaya bowl maui wow me
Brenda L.

The good: Acai bowls are one of my favorite desserts. I got the Maui Wow-me bowl from the Pitaya menu (they have an acai menu too). It had guava juice in it and was delicious with an island flare. I liked the bee pollen topper. It was under $11 for a size small (good for 1-2 people). I thought it was a fair price and it was made in a timely manner. The location is beachside so it was a wonderful snack to take with you while walking along Manhattan beach. There are also lots of cute shops around here so it's a very walkable area. The fruit were fresh. There were many menu items to choose from. They sell smoothies too. The bad: There was no indoor seating. However, there are benches nearby outside. I've been here twice and the second time the wait was a half hour. They should have a text phone alert set up for when your bowl is ready. I felt like some of the workers were just moving slowly taking their time. The interesting: The kitchen is open so you can see folks cutting up the fresh fruit. They have 2 other SoCal locations. This location's their original.

Smoothie
Ellie R.

Cute little storefront serving fresh drinks and bowls! It takes a minute to make since it's all made to order, but is right on the beachfront and a great place to hang out.

Chocolate Arc and Gaucho
Leonah Y.

Never gets old. I probably have a chocolate arc on a biweekly basis. Great location just a block off the beach perfect pick me up after laying under the sun for hours

Gauva Sunrise and Gaucho
Amy S.

This was definitely a busy place at 11:30 on a Sunday. It did take about 10-15 minutes before we got our bowls. The only downside is that there is nowhere to sit to eat our bowls. We got the small size of the Gaucho and the Gauva Sunrise. Both were delicious and a perfect size. Would definitely get again the next time we are in town.

Christian C.

I really like Paradise Bowls. I really enjoy Acai bowls in general, but I've had some terrible ones over the years. This little shop does it right. The Peach Bum and the Coconut Breeze are my two favorite items on the menu but honestly everything looks like it tastes good. Overall the have Acai bowls, pitaya bowls and smoothies. Ive only ever see one person working behind the register but they are moving quick! They're almost no seating so you'll more than likely need to take your order to go which is no problem since you're a few feet away from the beach so you can take your bowl and go enjoy the views. Would definitely recommend.

Gaucho Small
Austin D.

Came here for a quick healthy snack while walking the strand. I was very excited to eat it hence the picture of it half eaten already lol. I ordered the Gaucho bowl and it was very good! All of the toppings were very fresh and portion to price was solid for acai bowls these days. Blend wasn't as think as I normally like but still good. Staff was friendly and attentive. Go check it out next time you're in the area especially on a warm day!

Açaí with kiwi, banana and strawberries
Diana V.

Just tried Paradise Bowls and wow -- it did not disappoint! The açaí is super smooth and flavorful, and they're generous with the fruit toppings (which I love). Great selection of smoothies too! Service was friendly and fast! Also they just open a new one in Marina del rest! This spot is definitely going to be a new favorite!

Guava Sunrise
Maddy B.

Ordered the guava sunrise. Fruit is fresh and ripe. Guava base is a duller than expected, but still delicious. Great for the price point.

Slow! Slow! Slow! Make sure you have a lot of time on your hands if you go there as I think they're growing the bananas in the back.

You get that laid-back beach vibe with a great view, and it's ideal whether you're grabbing a quick bite before heading back to the sand for volleyball or settling in for a chill remote work session. It really feels like a local staple--easy, consistent, and exactly what you want when you're trying to eat well but still enjoy the whole Manhattan Beach lifestyle.

All the servers were warm and beyond the usual helpfulness. My friend saw an empty table they needed to be wiped so she asked a server for a towel to wipe it. He immediately said, "No, I'll do it." And he grabbed a towel and wiped in extra well with a smile. Two of us ordered the Buddha vegan bowl (9/10; quinoa was fluffy, tofu was tasty but a little firm for me, everything else about it was fresh and well-done. The mushroom serving was my favorite part.) My friend ordered the Beef Macro bowl (9/10: beef was the best part and everything else was good. The wild rice was tender; but it tastes "healthy"). My last friend ordered the salmon bowl (9/10: all of us raved about the salmon. Had the same wild rice. I liked it but my friend said it was too soft for her. The rest of the items that came with it were similar and tasty). Before I left, Molly helped me order a mushroom reishi hot chocolate drink. Molly was so sweet and helpful. She recommended the homemade almond milk. (8/10). The ambiance was warm and cozy. I loved the multi-level structure. Therefore, the name, "The Hive". Cute design and a good place to bring a computer and have a quiet spot to chill.

There are lots of fun spots to sit, take a break, and treat yourself. I can't wait to work my way around this menu! I have had two different bowls and each supplies what feels like a bottomless bowl of textures and flavors. I actually feel my mood lift when I am eating their food. I always get good energy from their food. I have also tried a Dalgona coffee which is spectacular! I will make a checklist from the vegan menu so I do a better job of remembering what I had (and making sure I try them all!). I highly recommend whether you are vegan or not.

*Vegetarian review *…read more This place is beautiful inside. Parking can be hard to find. Bathroom is available. Seating is somewhat limited. I ordered on DoorDash to pick up. No one greets you when you walk in. I think it's a one man show so if they're busy prepping the food then they won't acknowledge you. I got the Thai jackfruit bowl which wasn't too bad. I like my husband's vegan belly bowl. Tasted more like a poke bowl. It was spicy. The Thai bowl is also a little spicy especially for a kid's palette. It wasn't very filling. It was more like an appetizer. I'd still go back for the taste and fresh ingredients though
