A practical suggestion for management: use larger bowls. Packing toppings all the way to the rim makes it almost impossible to eat or mix without spilling everywhere. As for logistics, the couple of spots directly in front are usually full, but there is covered parking two blocks down. Our total for just two bowls came out to $32. Overall, decent flavors, but tough to recommend given the cost and hassle.

My cousin and I couldn't decide what to get so we opted for sweet and savory and got both an acai bowl and breakfast sandwich. We got the Brazillian bowl in medium size and the chipotle chicken flatbread to share. Both were the perfect size and had ample amount of toppings. Ingredients used are very fresh. What I like about this place compared to other acai bowl spots i've tried is that they have a lot more toppings in their pre-set menu. They are a little more generous on the fruit. The chipotle chicken flatbread was a good choice and we asked if they could cut it in half to Seating is plenty and it looks like a very popular spot among people who walk by in Fairfax. I have also made them a video! Tiktok: @lyn.dulge

I usually visit one of their other locations in Falls Church and this location is definitely a lot bigger. Inside is very clean and quiet. On a weekday around 11am we were the only customers dining in. Ordering is convenient at their self service kiosk. The bowl I usually get is the Warrior Nutella Bowl. Also pictured is my cousin eating the Warrior bowl in a mini size which I realized after I got my order that I should've gotten mine in a mini because the regular size is plenty! They are very generous with their toppings but I do have to say that on this visit the berries were on the sour side and while there were a lot of toppings we both couldn't finish our bowls.

My favorite bowl is the nutella açaí bowl but you genuinely cannot go wrong with any other options. It is always loaded to the brim and the best bang for your buck.

We really enjoy the green bowl, and the Nutella bowl. Obviously the Nutella bowl, is going to taste the best, especially since it comes with a berry smoothie and coconut and strawberries on top, covered in Nutella.

They offer a number of breakfast options, including egg based, as well as variations on their liege waffle which now includes a chocolate chip variety.

Ambiance is bright and cheerful with a surfer vibe. It's meant to be take away, so there's limited seating inside.

This is hands down one of the best places to get açaí bowls. Even though we've been here multiple…read moretimes, we had questions, which the cashier was very patient in addressing. I'm glad she did because we ended up changing our order and were very happy with the results. At first we wanted the classic açaí bowls with waffles on the side, but changed the order to a mixture of waffle pages and bowls to fit our preferences. For the waffle package you can get it made with the waffle on top of the açaí or you can deconstruct the package and have the waffle on the side. There's an option to eat inside, which is always very tidy and nice or outside of the establishment, which is comfortable either way (or of course, take your order to go). They have a free rewards program that comes in handy for discounts. 10/10 recommend!
