The space itself is small, with limited indoor seating, though there are a few tables available outside. Staff are friendly and efficient, and they're happy to customize bowls to your preference. We tried the Nutella Acai Bowl and a Mango Bowl. The acai held up well without melting too quickly, and paired nicely with the bananas and other toppings on the Nutella bowl. The granola was fresh and added a satisfying crunch. Overall, the bowls were flavorful, refreshing, and a great option for a quick healthy bite.

I also got a proper education of the correct pronunciation of Acai. I've definitely been mispronouncing it this while time. The tropical bowl has everything I love in it. Pineapple, banana, granola and coconut flakes along with a heaping amount of Acai base. Loved every bite. On top of great variety of bowls this place has a cool decor and fast, friendly, and great service! Definitely a place I'd come back to and often.

I ordered the staff pick of the month, the Açaí energy smoothie in the 16oz size. I love açaí and this smoothie also included strawberries, bananas and coconut milk. It did not disappoint. It was perfectly balanced and not too sweet. The staff were friendly and seemed to work well together. The space is filled with natural light and welcoming decor and clean! They also have plenty of parking which is always a plus for me. I'll def return and try another menu item when I'm in the area.

It was a hostile environment for everyone and it took away from the experience of my bowl because I felt so bad and was worried about him getting yelled at.

Very consistent turn over with both thr staff and items with changes being integrated some slow and some immediate. On change that had me going here more often than I had before are the prices, where before it wouldn't be uncommon to see strawberries at 9$ a pint or mayonnaise at 12$ now i really fee like they are more reasonable with close to a 33% reduction in price of both and other items that seemed unnecessarily bloated. They no longer have sushi which drives my daughter crazy but their soup is so much better now and honestly I could get it once a week at least with how good it is compared to before it kind of tasted like an after thought of left overs about to go bad.

My favorite smoothie is the Blueberry Pie; it's absolutely delicious, and the graham cracker topping ties it all together. If I could drink it every day, I would, but fair warning: the blueberries can leave your mouth grayish-purple, so maybe skip it if you have plans afterward. I also love the Strawberry Moon smoothie--the banana flavor isn't overpowering, which is a big plus. If you're into coconuts, my friend highly recommends the Maui Colada. As for sizing, the Bite Size feels like a medium to me, and it's more than enough. If you are looking for a place to chill with friends, this is the spot- there is plenty of space and they have a few board games too!

If anything, I feel this place opened a little bit early and could've trained the staff a bit more, but other than that, I have a glowing review. For starters, the parking lot is pretty large, so there are plenty of places to park. Upon entering the establishment, I noticed how clean and organized everything looked. There was a woman there to greet me and I put my order in right away. I ordered a number of different items and she let me know about a deal where if you order $30 worth of food, you get five dollars off. I appreciated that knowledge and decided to order even more. All of the food came out exactly as expected, the hot items were hot and the cold were cold. I also felt as though the space were welcoming overall. My food was very good and consistent with the other Life Alive locations I've been to. I will likely be back to this location time and again, and I would recommend it to others.
