    Front Entrance

    I was craving an Acai Bowl today for lunch, and The Bowl La Verne seemed like a good choice over Robeks and Jamba Juice. And it came through!! I decided to build my own Acai Bowl. A 24oz Acai Bowl. My bases were Acai, Pitaya and Blue Majik. Toppings were Hemp Granola, Chia Pudding (DELICIOUS), Fresh Strawberries and Blueberries, and a drizzle of Almond Butter. I had to contain myself from finishing the whole bowl, it was that good! I did order ahead for pick-up, and they keep your bowl in the fridge/freezer until you get there, because I know some places leave them on the pick-up shelf and that's a melting disaster waiting to happen. Will I come back again, HECK YEAH! It was the perfect amount for a decent price! 5 stars on this day!

    I ordered the "Super Bowl" which should've come with strawberries but it looks like they decided not to add them. Won't be coming here again. This is a very boring Açaí bowl plus the fact they didn't give me everything the bowl is meant to have. Glad I didn't pay the actual price of this bow since it was "happy hour" and was given $2 off. First time here and sadly will be my last time here.

    Popeye Acai bowl.

    Melis is a kind, helpful, and attentive owner. The quality of the smoothies are also good.

    Chocolate protein smoothie! Highly recommend!

    Ordering online was no problem. It's delicious and the inside is super clean. Not a huge selection of smoothies but super good'!

    Stay away from this place customer service the worst I ordered Large Açaí Bowl they made my order wrong they offered me to remake it on a small size I purchased the Large sizes than they decided to give me the L Açaí bowl I got it but one of the employees gave it to me like what ever like get lost asshole they don't appreciate customers at all good by The Bowl you lost my business stay away don't waste your time flavor also is not the good like to pay almost $14 dollars we decided to threw it to the sink is trash now

    A not blue but has blue spirulina açaí bowl. Super Bowl
    Bruiser W.

    I'm really disappointed with my visit. The last time I was here a few years back the customer service and everything was so good that I was excited to come back but things have changed. My son is on the spectrum and a picky eater but he'll always eat a blue spirulina açaí bowl simply cause it's blue. I asked the guy at the register if they had a blue bowl and he said the Super Bowl has blue spirulina in it. So I was surprised when I was handed a purple bowl, just to make sure I politely let the girl who handed me the bowl know that we got a blue spirulina and she deadpan responded "yea it looks like that because we blend it with strawberry" like I'm dumb for not seeing that it has strawberry and putting 2 and 2 together. That energy alone made me feel like I couldn't ask for a remake without strawberry so it could be blue. It was a missed opportunity for customer service to help out. Sadly I won't be back because of this interaction and the bowls are pricey so I would hope they would want customer satisfaction.

    Small build your own bowl
    Jessica G.

    A hole in the wall.. literally. You can easily miss this place but it's worth the try! My sister and I stopped by for the first time and ordered a small build your own bowl which for the price around $8-$9 I think it was reasonable and really delicious! Even though it was small you get a good portion, when I'm in the area I will be back!

    I'm loving The Bowl!! The bowls are always fresh and delicious. The açaí is creamy and rich, and the toppings are always fresh. It's the perfect combo of flavors and textures. They load the bowl with lots of toppings! The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and great at making recommendations. They've always been spot-on! I love that I can build my own açaí bowl! The portions are very generous, keeping me satisfied and satiated til my next meal. The presentation is always lovely. I've tried several flavors, and each one has been a delight. That peanut butter sauce is so yum! The shop is cute and welcoming, easy place to hang out and enjoy my bowl or smoothie. Highly recommend!

    Regular (16 Oz) Build Your Own Bowl

    Me and my son shared the açaí bowl and it was just perfect! One of my favorite places so far! Thank you for making our day so special.

    Spring Feast bowl

    I recently visited this new bowl spot in the La Verne area, and I was genuinely impressed. You can really feel that the place is fresh and thoughtfully put together. The atmosphere is calm, clean, and welcoming--definitely a spot where you can relax and enjoy your acai bowl. I tried Spring Feast and has 3 different sorbets, double granola, double peanutbutter ! Yummy...

    Banana Split Açaí Bowl & Green Glory Juice
    Suki T.

    So glad I tried this spot! I had been wanting to try it for a while now, and finally stopped in on my lunch break to grab a snack on this pleasant Fall day. I got the Green Glory juice & the Banana Split bowl. Both were sooooo delicious & refreshing! The bald, bearded gentleman was very welcoming and friendly. It turns out that he is the new owner, and he mentioned they are remodeling the space to be more modern and open. You could sense the youthful vibe of this place as there was a steady inflow of younger people picking out their favorite flavor. Even though I live about 15 minutes away, I'll definitely be back. This place is the spot for all your healthy refreshments!

    Very unhappy worker. Not good customer service at all. My drink tasted like shit. No thanks to the big guy in the front

    Sea Sider Acai Bowl
    Lucy Y.

    I got a super delicious açaí bowl here. The price is pretty typical for açaí bowls and the service was great and quick. There were a couple of tables to sit at and it was clean and nice inside. The bowl was very fresh and the toppings weren't stale or anything.

I do wish they were a bit more affordable or had a senior menu but the food is prepared nicely and always taste delicious. My one negative gripe is the music it's just way too loud and not appropriate for people my age to want to stay and order more. I have spoke to friends of mine and we all agree the music is not appropriate for this style of restaurant even classical works but top 40 pop is a bit much and detracts from the French theme vibe. Some French Music would make this place a dream. Since it is a French themed restaurant. Or at least appears to be. But the contemporary music deflects away from the French vibe and atmosphere. So I give a thumbs down on the loud music ie. minus a star. However I feel changing the music only would add to the ambience and the vibe of the place, just my opinion. However, sadly due to the Music, I choose sit outside but when your my age with this heat being so awful it would be so nice to sit inside with the air-conditioner with nice refreshing music. I will cross my fingers it gets better as I would eat there every day. On the upside there is one lovely tall dark haired fair girl at the counter who looks very French and has a European vibe about her aura she just makes the place. She is so kind and welcoming. I have gone in very stressed a couple times and her demeanor is so calm and sweet she makes me feel welcome and appreciated and diffuses my stress level every time. Very few people nowadays have that kind of charm. She doesn't make me feel rushed or brushed off like most service people. I just adore her energy she has the best manners and eloquence of any waitress in Claremont. I'm always happy when I see she's working. I wish I could pronounce her name I think it's Bree or Bly or something like that. Also they definitely need name tags too. But the food is very good.

Every detail was well thought of, from the outdoor patio dining surrounded by olive bushes to the indoor wooden and oak touches with Fairouz playing overhead. What's even better is EVERY single dish is labelled clearly for allergy diners! AHHHH as a nut allergy girly this had me geekin. All the celiac diners can enjoy their dining experience without any triggering fears as well. I went with their famous Lebanese egg pie and my friend got the grilled salmon plate. We shared the ful mudammas, my fave dish. The gluten-free pita bread def changed my brain wiring. I don't enjoy gluten-free food, and I was drooling.

We arrived midday on a Sunday and we're promptly sat, having been given the option for patio or indoor. We chose the patio, and between the clematis, lantana, and olive trees it is a very lovely setting in which to enjoy a meal. We were promptly brought a bottle of cold water and glasses, and our beverage orders were taken. I had a honey lavender latte with oat milk, and my husband had Lebanese coffee (no milk no sugar.) my latte was fragrant, the perfect temperature, and just the right amount of sweet. The Lebanese coffee was smooth, floral without being perfume, and excellent. We started with the falafel and the batata harra. Both absolutely excellent. For our entrees we selected the shakshuka and the Lebanese egg pie. Both were also excellent. Everything was well cooked, well presented, flavorful without being overwhelmed by any component. We took home a baklava tart, because we simply did not have the ability to eat more at the table. It was tender, moist, not too sweet, the pistachio flavor coming through as nutty and grassy, seriously so good! And it's worth noting, this whole restaurant is gluten free. I would not have realised if I had not known ahead of time. The texture of the pita with the shakshuka was exactly what one would expect, as was the bread of the egg pie. The pastry of the tart was flakey and delicious. And having said all of that, the service is what puts it above and beyond. Everyone was warm and pleasant, and seemed to genuinely appreciate the compliments. Staff seemed like they liked their jobs, which for me is always a good sign.

Not living in LA means YELP is our go to especially since we must find a place that offers gluten free options for the little. I came across this place on the yelp search and it claimed 100 percent gluten free and for that I was intrigued and extremely thankful. This location was in Beverly Hills, parking was easy(we found street, metered parking) not a lot of traffic for it being a Saturday morning but we were new to that area so I cant say what the norm is. When we walked in the bakery was busy with happy customers, amd we were immediately greeted by a couple of the most genuinely nice people of whom I assume are the owners (sorry I forgot to ask). Usually when walking into a bakery that has gluten free options my daughter always looks to me.to see what she can have and from that she willl make a couple or selections, all of which is extremely limited. This time I was able to tell her she could choose anything. Thw way her eyes lit up when she saw the glazed donut, it makes a mom heart want to cry when she gets to experience something so normal as a glazed donut but in this case a glazed donut on a whole other culinary level( so amazingly delicious). She told the gluten free genius helping her that she had never had a glazed donut and he packaged it up on the house. Hannah then proceeded to order as many things from the case as I would allow for the moment. She just wanted to try all the things she had never been able to before. I did have to promise we would be back to buy more the next time we come to LA. She settled on most of the sweets although this bakery has bagels and sourdough bread. Shes not much of a bread eater in general unless its smothered with Nutella so next time we will try the breads. So back to the experience, we sat down and she tried a bite or 2 of everything and LOVED IT ALL!! The glazed donut met all of her expectations and blew her mind. Coming in to second place was the Oreo babka and the croissant. Before leaving Hannah went to thank them and tell them she loved it, she was then given a second item to try(the chocolate croissant). We took it to go and she tried it in the car on the way to the Getty, she was in pure food bliss. Thank you for creating a bakery for the adults and the littles that is safe and delicious. But most importantly thank you for treating my daughter with the utmost respect and genuine kindness you dont find just anywhere. We WILL be back soon. Hannah rates service and sweets, 1 million stars!

Unfortunately, the service has been consistently disappointing. Every time I visit, the staff seems uninterested, bothered, or inconvenienced by customers. There's rarely a warm greeting when you walk in, no welcoming energy, and often it feels like you're interrupting someone's day just by asking a question or placing an order. I understand that everyone has difficult days, and working in the restaurant industry isn't easy. But hospitality is a huge part of the dining experience. A simple smile, eye contact, a "hello," or making customers feel welcome goes a long way. The food deserves praise, but the service does not match the quality of what's coming out of the kitchen. Management may want to spend some time retraining and refocusing staff on customer service and hospitality. Customers should feel appreciated, not like they're a burden. I truly want to see this place succeed because Highland Park needs good local businesses, and the food is excellent. But after several visits with the same experience, I felt it was worth sharing honest feedback. Great food brings people in; great service keeps them coming back. I hope management takes this as constructive criticism and works to create a more welcoming experience for everyone who walks through the door.
