Their açaí bowls are great quality, and topped with my personal favorites like granola, banana, strawberries, condensed milk, milk powder, and a peanut candy (pacoquita). Whether you're looking for a healthy breakfast, post-workout snack, or a refreshing treat on a hot day, this place delivers. Also, for those who are into the Dubai Chocolate trend, there's an acai bowl Dedicated to that flavor. Aiming to order that next time. They also have savory & sweet snacks (ie Brazilian tapioca which looks kind of like a crepe or thin pancake with filling), Pão de queijo cheese breads and more. Everything is made fresh to order, service is quick & nice. You can also order from kiosk. Seating is available Located near the arts armory center, and near green line extension, and street parking is generally available.

With the Santana's Breakfast, I was served two large pancakes! One would have been more than enough! Besides the American toast offerings, there are many Brazilian breads and pastries to accompany whatever you're having. Other than breakfast, I have enjoyed the pão de queijo, the sandwiches, a burger and most often, the coconut breads! It's hard to leave Santana's without a treat of some kind to have later....The bakery products are gorgeous! Also, the staff are very sweet, attentive, patient and hard-working. There are long lines sometimes and as another reviewer suggested, they should have a pick-up line for people who have ordered ahead. That said, the women really move fast and the lines do, too! Delicious coffee, too!

**Alegria Bowls - A Burst of Happiness in Every Bite!**…read more I used to walk by Alegria Bowls on Main Street and always wondered what the hype was about... and now, the only thing I regret is not going in sooner! "Alegria" means happiness in Portuguese, and let me tell you, that's exactly what this place delivers. Their specialty? **Acai Bowls** - straight from Brazil, these delicious bowls are packed with fresh ingredients, and you get to customize them exactly how you like! From acai to milkshakes and ice cream, everything is made fresh, and you can even add fun Brazilian treats like **Serenata de Amor** chocolate (a delightful caramel chocolate that adds the perfect touch to their ice cream ). I tried the **strawberry milkshake**, and it was absolutely *delicious* - super fresh, creamy, and worth every sip. Yes, it's on the pricier side, but the quality and freshness of the ingredients make it totally worth it, in my opinion. **Food**: 9/10 **Pricing**: 6/10 (a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for!) **Ambiance**: 7/10 (fun, welcoming vibes with a bubbly font that adds to the charm) If you're craving something fresh, healthy, and oh-so-yummy, do yourself a favor and stop by Alegria Bowls! You won't regret it.

While there are a ton of pre-made options, I was looking for a more simple bowl so opted to make my own. I got a bowl with strawberries, bananas, kiwi, and mango, and you could tell all the fruit was actually fresh. I also put granola and peanut butter in my bowl. Unlike most places, the peanut butter was drizzled on the top which was a nice surprise. My only suggestion would be to have an option of how much you want drizzled on top since it was a little heavy for my own preference (still delicious). The staff was friendly and even delivered your meal to your table. While there arent a ton of seats inside, we had no issues finding a place to sit, even with another family there. I would come back here and be open to trying other items on the menu as well.

I've been to their other locations, which also offer grain & rice bowls, salad bowls, tasty toasts, soups, and snacks. Considering there are plenty of food options at CanalSide, the smoothies, acai bowls and juices would suffice just fine here. I stopped by the Juicygreens counter at CanalSide recently and ordered the Pure Amazon Acai Bowl ($11.50 plus tax). This place was steady busy with three orders ahead of mine and one person working. I watched my bowl being made to order as I waited (8 minutes after ordering). The cold acai bowl was layered with frozen organic acai puree with guarana, banana, blueberries & almond milk on the bottom half topped with blueberries, strawberries, coconut flakes, and granola. This acai bowl was very good and rivals the acai bowls I've had at Playa Bowls. I enjoyed my acai bowl over at the big projection TV as I watched some football.

I got the Dragonberry pitaya bowl, which was topped with a good portion of delicious honey, granola, and fresh blueberries and strawberry slices. The mix itself was more slushy/icy in texture than expected, but still delicious in flavors. I would come back again if I was in the area and craving smoothie bowls.

The menu is really varied -- a lot of different cuisines. It took me a bit to order but staff were patient and friendly. I ordered the mushroom shawarma pita and an açaí bowl. The bowl was delicious! They have their own smoothie bar that's separate from the rest of the kitchen and was served quickly. The mushroom shawarma pita was a bit disappointing. The flavors were good, but it was layered poorly, with all of the mushroom at the top of the pita, making for inconsistent bites. The sauces themselves seemed delicious. I would definitely come back to try different things!
