A thousand stars out of five. I will be talking about their bowls for years. We tried their traditional acai bowl. It was so scrumptious, sweet and tart and crunchy, just melts in your mouth delicious. I had never really had an acai bowl before, but it was on my list to try and I knew this was the place to start. All of the ingredients were so fresh. One child had an I Lava You bowl, and really like the crunch from the cacao nibs. We also had the Monkey Bowl, and it was life changing. I am a huge chocolate peanut butter fan and it hit all of the spots! I cannot even describe how good it was but I will crave it for the rest of my life. It was so smooth and creamy and delicious, we will never be able to find one this good at home, I just know it. This was a popular location, which is a good sign and something we look for on a vacation. There is some seating outside and also a lot of people just walk around with their bowls. This one was just a few steps from our hotel. One child even bought an adorable tank top. I really hope I can come back again soon.

Super flavorful bowl! I got the tropical bowl and it was delicious! Staff was super nice and bowl was ready within 5 minutes. The fruit tasted fresh! Only think I wish I would asked for more was the granola because I'm a granola fannnn!

Okay, okay-- now that I realized there isn't just ONE Sunrise Shack on the Northshore, I started to see them pop-up all over the place. Silly me. Anyway, as I said in my Kailua Sunrise Shack review, this was my favorite acai bowl on Oahu, and Kauai. Came back, a 2nd time, and even bought a hat! I'm not a souvenir guy, but this trip I made sure to get a few items from the places I loved most.

Good service and testy food, they have a lot of good choices most to try, totally recommend

Yummy! My bf and I shared it and it was the perfect amount!!!
Anna B.

I loved how crunchy the bread was and the large pieces of tomato top and bottom. So yum Service was fast even tho the line was kinda long. I adored the ambience. So bright and cheery They had a wall of just bright, rainbow type things and it totally gave it a positivity vibe.

Açaí bowl with Mac nut butter (3$ up charge, pretty steep!)...
Sierra S.

The smoothie bowls are great, vibes are good and we didn't eat at the location because at the time there was a homeless person sitting face down on the table. I know that's not totally in their control but there's lots of places to eat beyond the seating they provide, such as the beach. Just eat it quick! My I lava you bowl was really runny. Service is fast I'm taking a star away because it's expensive. A 3$ up charge on macadamia nut butter when you get maybe a tablespoon worth and it's locally grown on the island (despite everything else) is pretty crazy. It's about 30$ for two bowls. It's vacation though on the Waikiki strip! So expect those prices. Good smoothie bowls.

Acai bowl
Taylor C.

A tasty acai bowl however a bit pricey for very little fruit toppings. Also the base is blended with bananas and dates only so it has a pretty strong banana flavor, more like an acai smoothie base than other acai bowls.

Açaí bowl small
Ashley G.

I absolutely love the smoothies and açaí bowls here. Expensive? Yes. But it's in the beach in Waikiki so what were you expecting? Pro tip: do not leave food unattended or on the edge of the table or the birds WILL come for it.

Jessica N.

One of my favorite places for smoothies and açaí bowls. Gets crowded, but service is pretty fast.

So happy to see this spot on this end of Waikiki. To note: I did not eat an acai bowl, I went straight smoothie 2 days in a row. And it was good? I wouldn't say the most robust smoothie for the price, but I appreciate healthy options when I can get it. I did add a few of the add-on's like protein, which added to the price, making my smoothie close to $16/$17+ which is steep for a smoothie that isn't the biggest. Overall, great option for a quick and healthy start to the day/mid-day meal. It's pricey, but what isn't in Waikiki!?

Love visiting this place every time I'm in town. Bowls, smoothies and avaccado toast are always delicious.

Denisse A.

such a cute hawaiian smoothie joint, love the decor and service. the smoothie combinations all look and sound delicious. 10/10 recommend

Local fave - with extra pitaya sauce

This was a solid choice for a veggie sandwich near the beach. Pretty reasonable too. And they were kind to give me cups of ice.

After what felt like our millionth shaved ice in Hawaii (not that I'm complaining! LOL!), I was…read morecraving something a little different. A SMOOTHIE! We happened to stumble across Fancy Fresh Food Shop, and I figured this was the perfect opportunity to switch things up a bit. WHAT I SWALLOWED: *AVOCADO SMOOTHIE: Ohhhh, this was DELICIOUS! So creamy, smooth, and absolutely hit the spot! And can we talk about the presentation?! It came in an actual GLASS JAR. How fancy is THAT?! LOL! I loved the little touch, although we quickly realized that bringing a glass jar home in our luggage wasn't exactly practical. So sadly, our fancy little jar stayed behind at the hotel. At least the smoothie made it into my belly, and that's what really matters! The smoothie was rich, creamy, and refreshing, and honestly, a nice change from our daily shaved ice routine. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE me some Hawaiian shaved ice, but sometimes a girl needs a little variety! Would definitely stop by again when that smoothie craving hits. Fancy jar or not, that avocado smoothie was it!

Smoothie places lately have been collaborating with famous influencers and adding skin care ingredients but this spot is keeping it simple. You pick which fruits you want or they have a few popular fruit combos on the menu. I got the reusable jar with the straw and lid, so that makes refills only $7 when you go back. That's the best smoothie deal you can get on island! The only thing is that parking can be tricky but they do have a small lot and there's street parking around.

Lunch in Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. I drove past this familiar logo of HiBlend Health Bar & Cafe and had to stop by because it was in an unfamiliar location. This cafe used to be in the Samsung Plaza on Keeaumoku Street, but now it's on Kaheka Street, near Don Quijote. The address is King Street, but the entrance is on Kaheka Street. The menu is still healthy and has expanded. That's why I got the HI Burger. It was a local shortrib smashed beef patty with Jack cheese, tomato, bacon, and avocado on a brioche bun (from La Tour Bakery), topped with garlic aioli sauce... delicious! All ingredients are locally sourced (when possible)! Service was very friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, and polite. Thanks for answering all of my questions! The only obstacle would be the parking. I sat inside (because it was air-conditioned) and I faced my car because I didn't feed the meter... LOL! I ate quickly because I was really hungry... and it was such a tasty, satisfying burger! Note: there are only two counter seats inside, and 12 seats outside on the sidewalk.

I think I may have found my new forever spot…read more This was my first visit, and when I arrived the ordering area was at capacity, so I was standing outside. I noticed a QR code on the door for online ordering, scanned it, grabbed an outdoor table and figured I'd give that a try. I ordered the Smoked Salmon and Bacon sandwich, the Apple Pecan Salad with balsamic dressing, and a large cold brew. I paid online and sat outside for maybe 15-20 minutes. I never did figure out whether I was supposed to get a notification that my order was ready, so eventually I just went inside to check. Sure enough, it was ready. Easy enough, and everyone I interacted with was incredibly kind. Then I got home and opened everything, and THAT is when I became really impressed. I had included a note with my order that I planned to eat the salad the following day and asked that the wet ingredients be kept separate. They absolutely understood the assignment. Everything was packaged so thoughtfully. The Apple Pecan Salad was beautiful, incredibly fresh and substantial, with the ingredients carefully separated so it would keep. It wasn't some obligatory pile of greens tossed into a container. You could actually see the care that went into making it. The Smoked Salmon and Bacon sandwich was equally good. Fresh, generously filled and absolutely delicious. I ate half the sandwich and some of the salad and was completely satisfied. Between the two, I can easily get four meals out of what I ordered, which makes the value even better. And the cold brew? Wowzer. Robust and delicious! I think what impressed me most was simply the level of care. A sandwich and a salad aren't complicated foods, but doing simple food really well takes effort. Fresh produce, good ingredients, thoughtful preparation, paying attention to a customer's request, and putting out food that looks every bit as good as it tastes. I felt that in this order. I actually tipped 15% when I ordered because I was thinking, okay, this is basically grab-and-go. After I got home and ate the food, I wished I'd tipped 20%. It genuinely felt good spending my money here. This was visit number one, and they've already set the benchmark. I really hope they stay exactly like this, because what a find. I will absolutely be back.

I love the vibes from this place, vibrant colors and very much sun-kissed energy. I see this business is marked as temp closed -- it is very much open lol.

Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.

Such a great option to go to with kids too! My son loved the mango strawberry and I enjoyed the rose lychee. Thankfully, it was not too flowery but 75% was a little sweet for me. I'll try 25-50% next time. Service is not always the friendliest but fast. We placed our own order and the staff just helped when the credit card reader wasn't working. We like the seating inside. It feels clean and bright. It always seems crowded, though, so be prepared to possibly take it to go or find seating outside.

My favorite spot. I get the mango sticky rice dessert or the mango sticky rice drink (man-coco…read moresticky smoothie-o) . If i'm on the go the drink, if I eat there then the dessert. They will do takeout on the dessert, however it does not travel well. The ice cream melts, the frozen coconut cream thing melts and it becomes a big mess. They have an app and a loyalty program - use it and you can get some free stuff. The timing in the app isn't always right because sometimes it says ready in 20 minutes but it's in 5 and sometimes it's in like 30. I don't think they adjust the timing to reflect how busy they are inside; I wish they did. Small spot to sit down and eat there if you want and some outdoor tables. However the outdoor tables are considered takeout, so if you order desserts, it won't come on the plates, it will be boxed, and sometimes a mess when the ice cream parts melt and make the paper soggy. No bathrooms inside. They are friendly enough but they often feel like they don't really want to be there but they're cordial enough. I will keep coming back for the dessert anyway! They say they close at 9pm but they don't. The told me 8:45pm and if you come at 8:55pm they're basically shut down. Not a fan of this because if you really close at 8:45pm, then change your hours. Otherwise actually stay open til 9pm, which does mean workers have to stay later. In any case, I'm not a fan when there's this mismatch. On the other hand. The Alley says they're open til 9pm, and if you're at the door at 9pm, they'll let you in.
