Open late night, really clean inside, staff was very friendly and helpful. Really sweet actually. I wish I would've gotten their name. My bowl was really refreshing , the guava base not overly sweet. I will be back

There were so many choices for bowl and endless possibilities when you create your own.

Great acai base! not too sweet which i appreciate. sometimes the bases can be a bit too sweet or artificial tasting, but not here! Fun toppings available. Service is quick. Parking lot available. Spacious with plenty of seating. Clean!

Custom made Matcha Mango bowl with our favorite toppings. Yum!!

Pur Bowls is our weekly Go To Acai spot. My gf is addicted to this place. Really great Acai bowls with fresh toppings. Very nice staff that works hard to create delicious and unique custom bowls for their customers..

This was good, the food was pretty yummy! We got a half mango and half dragon fruit "açaí" bowl. The mango was delicious and had a good consistency, dragon fruit was good but had a chunky texture. The service was good and quick. She was very kind and helpful. The ambiance was nice, although they had flashing Christmas lights which was weird to look at. They share the place with Nguyen's kitchen. Was a fun experience- would could back! Overall a 4.5

TL;DR - dragon bowl has a pitaya base that tasted with a hint of plastic (maybe it was from my spoon), topped with strawberries, banana, granola, coconut flakes, and chia seeds. Would come back to try other options. I got the dragon bowl for me and my family to share and it was so-so. There were pros and cons to this thing for sure and a lot of the feedback came from my family member. I otherwise wouldn't have minded it, but noticed it more and more after these comments lol. The base of this bowl is pitaya which had an slightly odd taste that was reminded me of plastic... maybe it was my spoon. The ice cream had a strong split of ice crystals and concentrated sweet pitaya. It didn't bother me initially until I had more of it, and felt the two components didn't blend very well together. The fruit up top was fresh and delicious. They put strawberries, bananas, classic granola, chia seeds, and a nice palm full of coconut flakes right in the middle. It was refreshing and my kid gobbled it up. I'm a big fan of acai bowls so I'd still come back here and try some of their other options! Service was quick and the ambiance was nice. Easy to hold a conversation and this place shares the same space as Nguyen's kitchen

Island Bowl comes with pur Coco base (Pure Coconut), classic granola ,pineapple, mango, toasted coconut flakes. Soooo yummy

Terrible customer service To: carson@nguyenskitchen.com Cc/Bcc, From: brandimcdanie 2578@yahoo. Subject: Terrible customer service Ordered three bowls the employee was cleaning out all the toppings refrigerator so the employee did not ask me if I wanted granola so as they were making my other three bowls I realized I didn't get granola I ask the manager can it be place on the side because the employee forgot she stated I needed to pay and extra 3 dollars terrible customer service service was so slow.

Açaí Bowl
Maria S.

The presentation was promising, the service was good, and the environment was clean--but unfortunately, the açaí bowl was a major letdown. It tasted like freezer burn and had almost no flavor. I've never had a bad açaí bowl before, so this was really disappointing.

Ask the Community - Pur Bowls

Is the açaí pre blended or do they blend as you order?

i believe all the bases are frozen. so pre made/blended :)

Are dogs aloud inside?

Dogs are not allowed inside, but they have outdoor patio seating so you can enjoy your meal outside with your fur baby.

Is there banana's blended into the bases?

Our bases do not use banana.

I don't crave halo halo often, but when I do, I'm getting the UPSIDE DOWN HALO HALO from here!…read moreWhile it isn't the most traditional version of the dessert, it still has all of my favorite parts. I love that the base is an ube milkshake and the corn flakes add a nice crunch. I'm glad they opened this Carson location because it's closer to me and I can fulfill my cravings!

My partner and I stopped by Cafe 86 in Carson hoping we had found our next go-to halo-halo spot…read more Unfortunately, authenticity and customer service were both missing from the recipe. Parking was easy, and when we walked in, there was only one occupied table. Three employees were chatting in the back. We were greeted, but it felt more like, "What would you like?" than "Welcome in." No smile, no conversation, no thank you--just a transaction. After taking our order, the employee returned to chatting with coworkers. When our order was ready, our name was called, the halo-halo was placed on the counter, and that was the end of the interaction. As for the halo-halo itself, my partner rated it a 2/10. It was overwhelmingly sweet and overpriced for what we received. We were hoping for layers of flavor and nostalgia but got a sugar rush that could probably power a small city. As a business owner myself, I understand that customer service is one of the biggest drivers of customer retention. Great products can bring people in once, but great service brings them back. Unfortunately, this visit missed the mark on both. The good news? These issues are fixable. A little more warmth, engagement, and hospitality would go a long way. Until then, we'll continue our search for our next favorite halo-halo spot.

It will definitely be a place we will have to return to. However, our mission today was Ben Scoops, based on other things we have read on Yelp. This place certainly did not disappoint. We tried a triple scoop and we had the chocolate caramel crackel, Ube, and Macapuno. All three of these flavors were delicious! In case you don't know, this shop serves Mitchell's Ice cream, which is a popular San Francisco Ice Cream shop and they are the only authorized place to serve it in Southern California. I absolutely love the flavors and combinations available, as a lot of them are very unique. The staff was very friendly as well. I would definitely return to Ben Scoops again.

I don't usually have much of a sweet tooth, but tonight I was craving for something along the lines…read moreof ice cream, but less sweet. I'm glad that Yelp recommended this place to me! The mango bingsoo was so good. I'm usually a savory foods girly, but I love the "not to sweet" sweets just like this bingsoo! It was my first time here and definitely not the last. The texture of the ice caught me off guard in a good way! It was like soft, but also still had a good "bite". I never had fresh snow before, but this is what I would imagine the texture to be like. It's milky ice, but in the best way possible. It's not icy at all. It's like soft and pillowy. It made me want to keep eating it. The mango sauce and mango cream on top was really good too. At first when I looked at the bingsoo, I'm not going to lie, the presentation looked a bit underwhelming at first, but there's a generous amount of mango chunks around the middle of the bingsoo. The mango chunks were soft and sweet! Honestly it was soooo good! My husband and I ended up sharing the shareable size together and we were able to finish it without a problem! I'm already craving it again as I am writing this review lol! The portion size is actually good. I love how they give a mountain of the ice and not have it flattened out. I also liked how milky the bingsoo was. It also didn't melt too fast, which is a plus. I was actually able to indulge instead of scarfing it down. Now I wish this place was closer to me as I'm from the Bay Area! I would probably eat this everyday if I could lol! It does get a little messy, like sticky so make sure you have napkins! I also kind of wish they had some topping options like mochi bits, condensed milk, sago, or mango popping boba lol or an option for extra cream! Oh and we arrived around 9:30pm. Not too long after we arrived, the place was packed! They do have a parking lot, but parking is quite limited and it's only like 20 minute and 30 minute parking.

Thanks to Yelp for leading us to this spot!…read more We had dinner in Torrance with my sister and my daughter. We were having so much fun and were looking for a dessert spot so we can continue to catch up. We found Noon Bingsu. It's in a strip mall with lots of other Korean businesses! It's well lit inside but not much in terms of decor. We got a small mango bingsoo and it was delicious! Big chucks of fresh mango, lots of mango flavored cream and the soft powdery shaved ice. There's really nothing else like it. In the famous words of Asian dessert compliment - NOT TOO SWEET! I'd love to come back again and try the injeolmi or grape flavor.

Review #998 2026-068…read more Lychee Berry with Crystal Boba $6.58 Large Strawberry Mochi Shaved Ice (served w/strawberry bunny jello, mochi, fresh strawberry, house special strawberry puree) $11.71 Formerly Get Shaved, Boba Bunny Coffee & Tea takes over with a stylish pink-themed dining space & IG-worthy shaved ice with cute jiggly animal jellos. The boba shop is located on the northwest corner next to Dentist of Old Torrance with plenty of parking. The shop's dining space is mostly of 2-tops that can be adjusted to seat larger groups, with a unisex restroom is in the back. There's a corner to the right of the entrance with a Boba Bunny neon sign & powder blue scooter that's great for taking pics! I first learned of the shop via Toast last year when they offer a $2.00 birthday treat. My son has tried most of the local boba shops so I wanted to see how this ranks on his list. The menu is pretty extensive for its size with: fresh fruit teas, blended fruit/smoothies, fruit yogurt, fruit mocktails, premium milk teas, pure teas, cheesy bunny teas, tea lattes, ice milks, coffees, toppings ice creams, build your own (bubble) waffle, bubble waffle combo, churros, shaved ice, hot sandwiches/paninis, toasts, croissants, rice bowls, salads, munchies, add-ones... whew! There's also collectible boba bear bottles that's refillable; I don't think the refillable bottle is more than their large drinks unlike some other shops with refill options. Stopping by on a late Saturday morning, it was quiet. It took a few minutes to peruse their menu & I had a few questions since the electronic menu & kiosk didn't have a description of the ingredients. I ordered Lychee Berry with Crystal Boba, & M picked a large Strawberry Mochi Shaved Ice. It took a few minutes before my order was ready. I liked the Lychee Berry... it has a floral & sweet tart taste from the lychees & strawberries, with a moderate serving of crystal boba. The shaved ice was definitely IG-worthy! It's piled high with ice fluff & topped with fresh strawberries, mochis, & a strawberry bunny jello; their house special strawberry purée, a bit too sweet for my liking, is set aside to prevent diluting the shaved ice. The mochi is colored, but it doesn't taste flavored or fresh (in-house) made; fresh as in chewy & pillowy like a marshmallow. The jiggly bunny makes a fun pic (see videos)! M thought it was funny to tap its behind, & we had it angled so that it looks like it's eating a pink mochi. Hehehe... While it's creative to a certain extent & tasty, the menu is on the expensive side for the serving size. Service was positive since we were the only customers, though slow due to the order execution process. Alas, the location is not quite marketable even though there's high traffic from Ralph's. It's the same owner, rebranding the Boba Bunny to Phin Coffee a couple of months ago after 2 years as a boba shop, which makes sense since there was a special run 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM with a 20% discount on coffee & matcha before the transition.

I initially gave this spot a lower rating last year because my drinks felt watered down, but I'm so…read moreglad I gave them another chance. I came by recently with some friends after dance class and we were all impressed. I tried the Biscoff Matcha Latte and it was fantastic. You can tell they use high-quality ceremonial grade matcha. The flavor is spot on. It's rare to find that level of quality in a specialty latte, and I'm definitely coming back just for that drink. I'm looking forward to trying their other matcha options next time! Also need to try their desserts.

Great for couples, family, and friend. If you have a foodie friend who doesn't judge on exterior but rather the taste, this is a worthy spot. The lady helping us allowed us to try different options until we landed on Thai tea, almond amaretto, riceberry horchata on The Special (3 flavors) on a waffle bowl. It was placed on coconut sticky rice. At first I raised my eyebrows but when I tried it, I was blown away how GREAT of combo this is! 5/5 I would go out of my way to try this. What I also love about this is that it isn't sweet like typical dairy icecream but just sweet enough like the true gelatos you have in Italy. You must at least try this with the waffle bowl - it was quite the delight. The portion is big and you'll be surprisingly full. The special (3 flavors) is best for 2-3 people (regular serving). If you're going to eat this by yourself I'd just get 1 serving or the gelato cup. Restroom? No Seating? No

Tried Moom Maam at Smorgasburg Los Angeles at ROW DTLA, the big Sunday pop-up food event downtown…read more The event itself was pretty cool, although a few of the vendors I was hoping to try apparently didn't show up that day. Luckily this was one of the stands that had good reviews, so I gave it a shot. Between the language barrier and my excitement for dessert, I somehow ended up ordering more than I planned. The ice cream was good and the Asian-inspired flavors were definitely different from the usual. It didn't completely blow my socks off, but it was a solid treat. I kept thinking a little syrup or extra topping would've taken it up another level. Overall, glad I tried it. Half the fun of these food events is randomly discovering stuff you normally wouldn't eat anyway. I'd probably check out their Torrance brick-and-mortar location sometime and give them another shot.

Yamari specializes in Uji matcha straight from Kyoto. [Parking]: The parking lot for Mitsuwa can get busy during the weekend, but it is not impossible to find an open spot. [Ordering]: There was no long waiting line and I was able to get my order within 5 minutes after placing an order at the counter. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Iced Matcha Lattes, Strong Uji Matcha Green Tea (sweetened), and Stone Ground Uji Matcha (contains no sugar or milk). They offer small, medium, and large sizes for their drinks. In addition, they also sell hojicha drinks as well as parfaits and soft-serve ice cream. *** Strong Uji matcha green tea (sweetened - small $4.50): The matcha flavor was strong alright. The drink did hit the spot and the sweetness level was about right. Mixed Soft Serve (half matcha and half hojicha - $6.75): Ice cream had a strong matcha flavor, but the texture didn't hit the spot. It would be nicer if the flavor was slightly less dense as this ice cream really made me want to drink more water afterward. The milk chocolate was a nice add-on, but I am not sure if it was really needed. *** I would stick with their drinks and there are better soft-serve matcha ice creams in Los Angeles (e.g. Meccha Matcha in Artesia or Tea Master Matcha Cafe & Green Tea Shop in Little Tokyo).
