    Overall pretty tasty. They had a good amount of options on the menu. I will say I have had better in other spots however this spot is right off the beach and so it's a great quick grab and go. There is very limited seating so be warned but overall a great spot for an açaí bowl!

    A friend told me this was the best açaí on Oahu and I have to agree!! I love the ability to choose a premade signature bowl or to create your own. They allowed me to substitute raspberries for blueberries on my Tropical Tribe Bowl and of course I had to go with the Hawaiian base! There is some seating inside but there are also tables on the patio or you could even take your bowl to go and sit on the beach. This was the perfect treat after spending a morning surfing!

    We wanted to try another açaí bowl this morning so we opted for Tropical Tribe. We ordered a large to share and it was tasty! While enjoying our original bowl with the premium topping we were able to enjoy the beach views as well. Definitely recommend this place if you are into açaí bowls.

    Today was our first time trying Tropical Tribe. Based on the Yelp reviews, it seemed like a great place to get an açaí bowl. I ordered 2 bowls and a Brazilian bread because it looked soft and would be a good snack. I got one for my mom and when I ordered 1 piece, they said they only had one piece left to sell so that was great! She bagged it for me and I handed it to my mom and she bit into it and it was hard! It was definitely not fresh! I'm so bummed that they would even sell this when it's hard. I let the cashier know and she said she'll take care of it and went to the back. So I waited a bit, and when I got our bowls, we asked if we were still getting the bread, if not it's okay. She just let me know they're still making it and it may take awhile. So she started taking other peoples orders and things, and I decided to ask how long do you think itd take and she said 20 min!!! they never mentioned that at all, and she did admit that she forgot to communicate it to me. I ended up just getting a refund for the bread. Had I known it would take that long, I would also just use that to get additional toppings or something. We were trying to get in and out as well since we had the free validation for parking.

    Great spot for an acai bowl by the beach!! They have a few tables inside the shop but there's no A/C so you might as well just take it to go! They have two bases for the acai: tropical tribe (Brazilian style) and Hawaiian (local style). Apparently the tropical tribe is the best seller but in our opinion the Hawaiian style was better--it's sweeter. The tropical tribe was still good, we just found the flavors to be more muted. There really isn't much of the base in the small bowl, but the ratio of base to granola was pretty good and the fruit was fresh!

    Amazing! If you're craving açaí, this won't fail you. Right next to the beach so you can sit in the sand and enjoy.

    Wow just wow! My açaí bowl was perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness with a touch of honey. You can tell that the açaí base and fruit were fresh. Best açaí bowl I had this week!

    Fresh, healthy and beautiful! Located right on the beach, this location will give you all the surfer feels. I stayed at the Hale Koa hotel right down the road and ended up walking here numerous days to get açaí bowls and occasionally coffee. The açaí bowls come in 3 sizes and I promise that even the smallest one is enough for a meal. Delightful staff members keep the shop extra tidy and have rules and procedures to ensure the line moves quickly. My repeated order consisted of the tropical tribe bowl with the pre-made sunset toppings. Eventually I started to pay extra to add peanut butter on top of the bowls which reminds me that you can also build your own bowls like many other açaí shops. Once in a while I would get the coconut vanilla latte hot which was also perfect. There are tables inside but I recommend the walking back outside to the beach because well, you're on a beach! Mahalo!

    It took us a few searches to find the right location but we found it none the less! When you Google search this place it doesn't show up and the location in Ala Moana pointed us to them. Be ready to hunt for parking! Located near the Army Museum and right on the beach we were able to pay for parking at the museum lot a block or so away across the street. The store is located behind the Steak and Shake shop. There's dedicated seating just for Tropical Tribe guests. The windows have a view of the beach and shaded from the sun. The food size is huge! Recommend sharing. All the fruit on the Tropical bowl I ordered was fresh and sweet. The ratio of fruit to acai is well balanced. Service was friendly and patient as we had lots of questions ‍ my husband and two sons ordered the protein bowl and added some chocolate chip looking bean (some local fruit bean) and they were both thoroughly satisfied. If they have cheesy bread, make sure you give it a try and dipped with condensed milk--total game changer ‍ Now that I am back in DC, I am totally craving and missing the quality of Tropical Tribe acai bowls. So worth the trip!

    Regular Hawaiian Bowl - with Premium topping + goji berries
    Erin K.

    Refreshing acai bowl! I added on goji berries to my toppings, and they did not skimp! Absolutely delicious. Service was great, and they have a free water refill station. Great location right on the beach of Waikiki. My only complaint was that the cup was filled less than halfway with acai. I'm used to other acai shops where the bowl is filled almost to the rim with acai, and the toppings are stacked on top, overflowing the bowl. Here, they fill everything up (acai and toppings) to fit inside the bowl. I cannot imagine you get much acai in the "small" size.

    I have never tried an açaí bowl in my life because i thought it was some new age hipster type food. I was clearly wrong I am glad I was perusing YouTube videos of best places to try in Waikīkī and this place was recommended. I had the açaí bowl with berries, strawberries, and granola. It was drizzled in honey. Life changing for sure. And they also had some Brazilian pao de queijo (cheesy bread). It was great start to my morning. Will come back when I return to Oahu.

    Bulletproof Coffee
    Kanya D.

    It's a small shop under a resort and you have the view of the ocean. I needed a caffeine boost and wanted to try a Hawaiian coffee shop. I order a Bulletproof coffee, it had a description of mental clarity and energy boost which I needed after a six hour flight. It only comes in hot, it had cinnamon but it's not sweet. It definitely did the job of giving me energy all day. The service was good, the cashier greeted me and made my drink. The best part is seeing the ocean with a hit of caffeine.

    Nalu Health Bar & Café is such a solid spot, especially if you're looking for something fresh,…read morequick, and actually satisfying. Parking is super easy with the complimentary structure, and the café is located on the bottom floor alongside other vendors. One thing I immediately appreciated was how well air-conditioned the entire market is--it's nice and cool, which makes sitting and eating there really comfortable. The cashier recommended the turkey pesto croissant, but suggested swapping it onto ciabatta since it's one of her favorites--and I'm so glad I trusted her. It was phenomenal. The flavors were balanced, the bread held everything together perfectly, and it felt like a step above your typical sandwich. I also had what looked like a simple salad, but the vinaigrette and candied pistachios really elevated it and made it feel more thoughtful than expected. The staff across the board were friendly and welcoming, and there's plenty of seating--whether inside the café or out in the open market area. Honestly, the value surprised me the most. I paid under $13 for everything, which is hard to beat for the quality. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

    I love this place. I come time and time again…read more I got the monkey kine smoothie and the steak sandwich. Though my favorite is the steak wrap. I love the little cacao nibs in the smoothie. The sandwich was so good. Omg. So many flavors. I always never order steak, but I always do when at Nala.

    Review for the 1-day Reset Cleanse. This appears to be new…read moreand different from the previous 6-juice only 1-day cleanses they offered before. This one adds little shots and tonics and probiotics and all the things, AND it includes 2 protein smoothies which give you 55gm of protein/day so you really get everything and feel full. The first time they put stickers on all my bottles so I knew which one to do first/second/etc, but yesterday I didn't get instructions and they weren't labeled, which sucked. I don't remember which one goes with what. Make sure you take a picture so you know what order to drink them because it absolutely makes a difference. I never really loved any of their "cleanses" before, to me it was more of a gimmick and I was always hungry. BUT this new one they are marketing as a 1-day reset provides comprehensive explosive results fairly quickly so make sure you stay home. I love it. This would be good to do the day before the colonoscopy prep so you don't have to drink so much of that bowel prep solution.

    I really like pressed juicery. If I had more money to spend on juice, I would get it more often…read more I recently got the açaí protein bowl to try and it was good. The only thing was that there was so little of the base, the açaí part. Usually you don't get enough toppings but this one had so little of the actual açaí part. The bowl itself is very shallow so not very much can fit in anyway. The taste is good though. It always makes me feel so healthy to come here. The people are nice and there are so many options! I really like it but I just can't come all the time.

    Refreshing beverage in Ala Moana Center, Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. After lunch, I searched my Yelp app for "tea" and scrolled down until I found Ebar. Located on the second level of Nordstrom, Ebar has been around for over nine years (according to First To Review). Wow. It's a cozy, busy place! The two cashiers were efficient and pleasant! There were a few small tables inside and a bunch outside... but it's too warm for me on an August afternoon to go outside, and inside was packed... so, I took my Avocado Toast and Coconut Lime Cooler to my car. Haha! Service was friendly and efficient! After I ordered the Avocado Toast, she asked if I wanted a drink. I should have taken her hint. I went back in line for the Coconut Lime Cooler. LOL! The avocado toast was great! I could taste a touch of garlic and a bit tartness from balsamic vinegar? The Coconut Lime Cooler was interesting. It was like a soda without sugar. It was carbonated water with coconut cream on the top and some lime syrup? It wasn't sweet like a soda pop... which is a good thing! Originally, I wanted to get the Açai Sorbetto bowl, but I caught the fragrance of toast... and got the Avocado Toast. So - I should return for the Sorbetto bowl... and a plain croissant... because the customer in front of me ordered the croissant... and it sounded and smelled good!

The gelato/ice cream was smooth and creamy, while the espresso had the right strength and slight bitterness to balance the sweetness.

This is a great spot to fill the craving.
