    Showstopping açaí bowls in Ka'paa! I absolutely loved the sunkissed lilikoi (açaí bowl with fresh fruit and passion fruit mousse). My husband said Da westsider was exceptional as well. My husband and I learned the hard way that ïwaca'i is only open until the shop sells out for the day, so come early!

    This is the only acai bowl I tried in Kauai! Keiki size is $8. Regular size is $16. My mom and I each got a regular size and it was super filling. It felt like a full meal honestly. We probably could've split one. I ordered da westsider and she ordered monkey business. The staff is super friendly and explained how their bowls are Brazilian style. When you get to the bottom of the bowl, there's also protein powder. I personally like a slightly sweeter acai base and I wish there were more fruit toppings. I also love to mix bases in my acai bowls but this place just has classic acai. Monkey business has a good amount of protein with the peanut butter and protein powder at the bottom. There are picnic benches to sit and eat outside.

    Just here eating my weekly ïwaca'i. Yes, weekly. There are two things that make a perfect business-- a world class product and exceptional customer service. Every week my mood takes a moon trip with Renato's perfectly consistent, best-in-class açaí, and Audrey's infectious smile and captivating personality. What a win. What a pleasurable experience-- for the mouth and for the spirit.

    Strolled up after a long walk. Owner was on the phone. HOWEVER, he quickly apologized, and got his employee to help me immediately. He didn't have to do that, I would have waited but I thought it was cool that he did. The girl who helped me helped me choose a bowl that wasn't too sweet since that's what I asked for. Man this might be the best bowl I've ever had. Not too sweet Acai puree, fresh fruit, protein powder on the bottom?!? Owner even came out when I was about done to make sure I liked it and apologized for being in the phone. He didn't have to. Great experience. Praying blessings on this place and those who own it.

    We love açaí and this did not disappoint! Best açaí we've ever had! We also got to chat with the owner who is very passionate about açaí which rocks!

    Haupia Coast

    Amazing customer service, & acai tasted so great and refreshing! We got the Keiki Haupia coast, & they went out of their way to make me an acai bowl, with my complicated request. 10/10 would go again and recommend to all!

    This is one of the best acai bowls I have ever had! Incredibly unique and the owner is insanely friendly to the point where he even helped me with the bus stop locations. He took the time to explain to me the difference between their Brazilian acai and traditional acai that I normally see, which comes from different preparation methods and the acai isn't sweetened. I tried their Sunkissed Lilikoi and it was delicious! The fruit was fresh and there was a perfect amount of all the flavors together, with nothing being overly sweet even with the honey. I loved the bit of cream powder they add to the bottom of the bowl as well. The owner told me it's to give a little something to the bottom of the bowl since most of the ingredients are on top and it did just that! I'm sad that I only tried this on my last day because I definitely would've come back for more!

    Food truck

    Delish!! Super friendly staff and yummy açaí bowl. Highly recommend this little food truck especially if you just rented a bike :)

    Monkey Business Açaí Bowl

    Amazing! I tried the Monkey Business and it was so delicious. Truly the best açaí I've ever had. The combination was so delicious, flavorful & filling. I'm sad I leave tomorrow before it opens because I want to go back.

    Insanely good. the owner told us all about how he makes his açaí. He was so kind and helpful to my boyfriend and i. Absolutely recommend if you're looking for some good acai bowls. Love that they offer smaller sizes too

    This was SO good -- I had to come back the next day for it before I left for home. Renato is such a sweet guy which made the experience, lovely. You can tell they put heart into their product. The bowl was so fresh and had delicious toppings. I couldn't decide between the mango and the passionfruit so he made something special for me! The food truck area is nice and well kept. Cute cat hangs around here too! Thank you, I'll be back every time I'm on this island :-)

    Sun kiss Lilikoi

    The service and attention to detail is by far the most impressive thing about this place. Got to meet Renato and he came outside to greet us and introduce himself. His açaí bowls and ingredients is top notch. Thanks to my sister for bringing us here. Going be our must go place when we come back. Mahalos Renato!

    Sun-kissed lilikoi Keiki sized açaí bowl
    Noel P.

    Super delicious açaí bowls! I got the keiki size and really liked that they didn't try to upsell me with the full size. The base wasn't too sweet at all and the lilikoi mousse was to die for. I can't wait to come back and try everything on the menu!

She charged me only for the Hapa Poke Bowl since it was cold but not for the Anykine Bento which was extremely generous. The poke bowl was fantastic! Fish was fresh and delicious. My partner enjoyed the Anykine bento and just wished there was a larger portion. Will definitely return on our next visit to the island.

The employee who took my order was rude and even yelled at me because she couldn't hear me over the loud music playing in the food truck. I ordered the poke bowl special, which was supposed to come with their famous tots, but the tots were missing from my order. I considered going back to ask for them, but honestly, I didn't because I was worried the employee would be even ruder than she was when I placed my order. I also tipped 20% because I truly believe in taking care of people who work in the service industry. We also tried the katsu musubi and the fried musubi, and all three dishes were absolutely delicious. We've visited both locations, and while the food was excellent at each, the Poʻipū location lacked the warm, welcoming spirit you'd hope to experience while visiting Kauaʻi. That said, much aloha to Kauaʻi. We had a wonderful trip and can't wait to come back.
