I've tried a lot of açaí bowls around Tucson, and I'm just going to say it... Açaí Brasil blows…read morethem all away. This spot is owned by the same team behind Gracie Barra, and they're bringing legit Brazilian-style açaí to Tucson. The difference is immediately noticeable. The base is rich, smooth, and deeply fruity without being overly sweet -- because it's not diluted with apple juice or mixed with yogurt like many places do. It's the real deal. Just pure, high-quality açaí and fruit, the way it's meant to be. The toppings are great, the fruit tastes fresh, and I really appreciated that they offer plenty of vegan options -- even vegan protein, which is surprisingly hard to find at açaí shops. Another big win: they're open late, which makes this the perfect post-workout or evening treat spot. Add in the cute plaza location and relaxed vibe, and it's easy to see why this place stands out in a city full of açaí bowls. If you're an açaí lover, do yourself a favor and try this place -- it might ruin every other bowl in Tucson for you.

First, I think this place just opened up, so I stopped by after my workout. If you are lactose…read moreintolerant or you don't have any dairy allergies, I think you will like their items. I got their smoothie, and it didn't have any milk, which made the ingredients stand out. However, I think the prices are overpriced, because it was $11 for a 16 oz. Unfortunately, I think that's where our economy stands right now, but the employee was really kind and there are enough seatings as well.

I ordered the pure matchalicous power smoothie. On the menu, it is listed as having banana, kale,…read moreagave, matcha, and coconut milk. In reality, there is no indication of matcha outside of the color. If I didn't know that there was supposed to be matcha in it, I would have attributed the color to something like kale alone. It wasn't bad, but it definitely is not what is advertised. Something I was also baffled about was the general poor service. The cashier didn't know what was in the smoothie when I made sure it was dairy free, and it was exponentially slow considering that I was the only person there. I can attribute both of those to training issues, but there's also the matter of the topic of conversation very loudly being held by the employees, which kind of ruined the vibes.

Here you get a watered down coconut milk with an overly sweet, syrupy lavender that is so sweet it's sickening, and a mouthful of dried roses. Even when I asked about it, I was told no. And when I asked if they could toss mine in the trash they said I could walk down the dirty curb to the overflowing trash can that's probably been full for the entire week. I left it on their counter. This after paying almost $38 for two overly sweet bowls, and this "yuck water." No refund offered. And they kept the 20% tip. Don't come here. Let's also not forget the filthy outside tables, chairs, and concrete. And the inside so dirty and they had their child running around in the cramped space. ** update: The manager was informed and reimbursed my "latte" -- not the tip but then she offered a coffee from her other store.

I had already paid for my order when I saw they make a bowl for dogs, so of course I had to grab one for my pup (he loved it!). You can substitute and/or add in ingredients. I swapped out the honey for peanut butter and oat milk for the pineapple juice. Stop by for a refreshing meal or snack.

Great Downtown Juice location. They are very vegetarian and fruit oriented with acai bowls,…read moresmoothies and juices. I'm doing keto so you have to request subs, and only coconut water, coconut milk, and almond milk options for smoothies. There were no issues with subs and staff was very friendly, helpful and understanding. It was a little after noon on a weekday late summer, and there were few people there so it was very calm and quiet. There are a few inside tables and a counter facing the street, so a little limited in seating but sufficient for the customers. Very mellow, and health oriented. I wish they could lean a little more keto and have at least one or two options, as healthy can mean a variety of things. Specifically, whole milk would be good. I would return for smoothies if downtown.
