    Medium made my way! This place is great!
    Marilyn G.

    Great customer service, healthy, good quality and very tasty. I have been here multiple times and it's still meets my expectations and some every time! I'll be back!

    Açaí bowl

    Definitely my new fav spot for my açaí bowl.. I absolutely loved the explanation of what real açaí is .. coming back for more in a couple days 10 out 10 ..customer service is amazing...so glad my daughter convinced me to come in. Day two!!! Back again that's how much we loved it

    Outside seating only.

    I woke up craving an açai bowl and somehow that craving led me straight to Ubatuba, bless the universe!!!! I went big with a large bowl loaded with blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, and mango, and I swear I got actual goosebumps watching them slice the strawberries fresh. That's how you know it's about to be good!!!!! Then I went full topping gremlin: shredded coconut, chopped almonds, goji berries, both granolas (because choosing is for the weak), almond butter, honey, and pumpkin seeds. Absolute perfection!!! Every bite was a moment!!!! Shoutout to Daisy, who absolutely understood the assignment and made my bowl with love!! There's no indoor seating, but they've got a few cute little tables outside... perfect for sitting there in silence, deeply in love with your açai!!! Ubatuba is hands down one of my favorite açai spots in the SGV because you control the base-to-topping ratio (as it should be), and their honey?? So good!!! Super floral, slightly magical, and honestly unforgettable. I'm obsessed!!!!

    Tried Ubatuba Açaí in Pasadena and ordered two custom medium bowls. Let's just say... both disappeared quickly. The açaí base was smooth, thick, and actually flavorful (not icy or bland like some places). The toppings were fresh and generous every bite had a good balance of crunch, sweetness, and fruit. You could tell the ingredients weren't an afterthought. The shop was clean and welcoming, and the staff was friendly while we took our time building our bowls like it was a serious strategic decision.

    This is one of my favorite acai bowl spots! There is currently a Doordash promotion - BOGO Create Your Own Bowl - $17.50! There are 3 size options - small, medium (+$3.75) and large (+$8.75) There is the option to select ratio base toppings on cup - 1/2 or 3/4 base or just base with no toppings. Loved that there are so many base options - pitaya, chia pudding, mango, overnight oats, matcha, agave coconut, and acai! Really enjoyed the variety of toppings! The Acai and matcha base was very delicious and not too sweet. The fruits - strawberry, blueberry, banana, and mango were all very sweet and fresh. The portion for toppings are very generous even though I got a small! Really enjoyed the presentation and how beautiful the Acai bowl was! Overall, this was 9/10 Definitely would recommend and return!

    If you like more fruits than just bananas, strawberries, and blueberries then you'll like this place. If you prefer the bases to be actually good and are happy with just 3 fruits you'll like roots & rye a lot more. I unfortunately am the latter and the overnight oats, acai, and chai pudding all tasted odd here. I did like that they have dates, but even their dates were super chewy.

    Delicious, freshness and very appealing. Owners are very heart warming and participates in the Altadena and Pasadena community events.

    Ubatuba is my go to sweet treat place! You can get different sizes depending on how much you're craving. Kayla and the rest of the crew there are always so knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely try out the Rose Bowl if you want a little tart treat.

    The most delicious, unlimited topping açaí bowl !!!!!!! Ok, so the great thing is you can make create your own bowl with unlimited toppings! It's delicious. Refreshing treat especially when it's hot. The best customer service with Dillon & Casie. The owner is also super friendly! I wish there was a place to sit. I'm always having to take it home. I don't like sitting outside because it's too loud BUT luckily the bowls travel well. They also have empanadas too and smoothies and other things BUT my fav is the bowls! Ps. They have other locations so check out their site.

    I am a regular in this place. My fav açaí place in Pasadena. Lots of toppings as well as fruits choices. I love it here because fruits are always fresh cut. They also serve the best empanadas with different flavor. The place is clean and very friendly atmosphere. Shout out to Dylan and Alexis. They are the best! Parking is very accessible at the back of the building. Must visit and try their mouth watering Açaí.

    My friend recommended the açaí bowl here, so my husband and I decided to share a small one with a base of açaí and chia seed pudding. The açaí was a bit too frozen, more like an Icee texture, which wasn't my favorite. However, I did appreciate the option of peaches as a fruit topping, something I haven't seen offered at most other açaí spots. I always love adding peanut butter and almond butter, so those were a win, and the worker's suggestion to top it off with PB crumble was spot on, super tasty! Overall, it made for a refreshing and satisfying snack. They also have a designated parking lot in the back, just make sure to read the signs carefully.

    My first time here - GREAT SPOT!!!! Storm in' Norman was great! Was originally going to get an Açaí Bowl, but after trying the Rose Bowl - it was over!!! You gotta try the ROSE BOWL! Thank you UBATUBA & STORMIN' NORMAN for the exceptional service!!! Happy FRIYAYYY all!!

    Açaí Bowl

    Highly recommend this place! From the moment we walked in the owner was very helpful and let sample a few flavors. And the place itself is super cute filled with bright colors. Now for the bowl, super delicious and not too sweet like other açaí places I've tried.

Came here with my daughter yesterday, after she raved to me about how good they were. She was right! We each got their small size, but it was filled with so much goodness to fill our hunger. It's build-your-own everything here at Roots & Rye! Not just acai bowls, but toasts and smoothies as well. Unlimited toppings is a dream come true. I chose green tea matcha and overnight oats for my base. Topped it with banana, strawberries, oats, almonds and almond butter. It was SO good! The matcha tastes just like frozen yogurt. I can't believe these babies are good for us. When I got home around dinner time, I was still full from my açaí bowl. I will be thinking about these bowls until the next time I get them again.

I have not yet tried their açai bowl although what I have seen from others, it looks delicious and it has a vast range of toppings that are unlimited. I even saw toddlers, ordering it and super excited to eat it. What I have ordered often from the shop are there toasts. You can get a choice of bread which is very high-quality, and add either avocado spread or a nut butter spread. I went yesterday on a very hot day and the avocados were not ripe enough, so I chose a cashew butter toast. There are many toppings to choose from like granola's, nuts, seeds, chia pudding, fresh fruit, and even natural sweeteners. I got some berries, fresh and toasted coconut and date syrup drizzled on top. It is such a satisfying snack with a bit of protein and other healthy ingredients that I did not feel guilty about eating I don't know if it was the bread I chose, but the size was a little smaller than what I remember. However, it hit the spot until my next meal. The shop is extremely clean and Service was very pleasant and friendly.

It's literally you, the employees & the kitchen right there basically. So very snug up in there. So not a lot of seating inside, one window bar area. There are a couple tables to eat outside but I feel like this is just a grab n go situation. I didn't like that for build your own bowls they only allow 4 free toppings. That's crazy ahah especially from what I'm use to at all my other Acai spots it's unlimited toppings. Even then I didn't see to many options for toppings so eh quick visit, decent bowls but wasn't jammed packed, fruits were good & tasty, no real complaints on the Acai or blue majik itself. Will stick to my other spots especially if you're paying practically the same price but the other spots offer unlimited choice toppings!

When I arrived, there were only two staff members and both were busy preparing other orders, so I ended up waiting quite a while just to place my order. I tried ordering through the app instead, but it wasn't working, so eventually I asked a staff member to help me place the order. I then had some confusion when ordering my usual yogurt/fruit bowl. One of the staff members told me that they couldn't make it as a yogurt bowl without charging me the price of a regular bowl. I was confused because I've ordered the same type of bowl here multiple times before without being charged that way. The staff member initially gave me a hard time about it, although I do appreciate that they eventually apologized and checked with another staff member, who helped resolve the issue. The bowl itself was prepared fine, but unfortunately the overall quality of the fruit wasn't great this time. The fruit just didn't seem as fresh or as good-quality as it has been during my previous visits. I'm giving 2 stars because I've enjoyed this place before, but between the long wait, the initial customer service experience, and the quality of the ingredients this time, I left feeling pretty disappointed. I'm not sure I'll be back to this location.
