Phenomenal Açaí bowls- went back the next day because they were so good! Highly recommend!

Did a staycation at Bahia Resort and stopped here for a drink after a walk. We ordered the Strawberry n' coco cream and perk up, buttercup smoothies. Smoothies were delicious. The ladies that helped us were friendly. The cafe has a cute interior and plenty of seating options inside with a few spots outside. Great people watching spot.

San Diego native here and this place is just so incredible!!! The mermaid bowl is the best açaí bowl I've ever had!! It's a fresh smoothie bowl (not frozen açaí) and all of the fruit was fresh and perfectly ripe in loveee

We were at Bahia Point and love that we were able to find an açaí place nearby. They also carry smoothies and coffee. We ordered the mermaid, no worries, and blue paradise and they were all good. The fruits were fresh and were blended well. For 5 açaí and coffee, the total came out to almost $80. Expected since it's near the beach. No complaints from us and the service was good.

Very delicious açaí bowls and very customizable, both in quantity and toppings. There is a lot of seating inside and some outside. Even when it's busier it doesn't take that long to get your order

VERY GOOD! My sisters and I took my father here for Father's Day. The girls working answered our questions and were polite. As long as you display good manners, you will get the same back. My siblings and father got smoothie bowls: they loved them and said they want to go back before we leave vacation. I got a vanilla hot latte with almond milk and a jalapeño bagel. At first, I thought the bagel didn't have much flavor, but after I kept eating it, I thought it was the perfect balance of flavor/spice. The latte was also VERY good! I loved the fluffiness of the bagel and would love to come back. Not to mention, the space is beautiful. Thank you and we will try to come back before leaving.

Stopped by here on a bike ride around the bay after seeing that they offered vegan options. While they current only offer a few sandwich options, all three sounded delicious. I opted for the Wild N' Free panini on focaccia with cheddar cheese, arugula, sun-dried tomatoes, and vegetarise mayo. It was almost like an adult/upgraded grilled cheese, so good!! Blended with coconut milk, dragon fruit, banana, pineapple, and agave, the Tink Smoothie was the perfect pick me up that gave me a boost of energy to finish my ride. Employees were very nice and the food came fairly quickly considering the smaller size of the kitchen area. While this location makes it easy to grab food to take too the park or bay, the decor is so cute that I actually wanted to dine in! Love this place! Looking forward to trying new paninis and smoothies next time!

***Best açaí bowl in San Diego *** If you are in the Mission Beach area (near Belmont Park) stop by here. We came upon it as a pit stop on our bike journey around Mission Bay. What a surprise and great reward! Great selection of açaí bowls of various sizes. Smoothies, toasts, paninis, coffee, and more. Friendly service with a smile and lots of comfy seating spots in a large cozy space. Great place to hang and chill + relax. Oh, and did I say they have the best açai bowls in San Diego!!!

I stand by my review from 2 years ago. Don't do the agave and the bowl will be perfect

Visited with my bestie (aka 9yo daughter) who loves Acai bowls as much as I do. We like to share one every time we're in a beach town. I'd like to try them everywhere but $$$$. This one was $13 and some change with tax and tip. Agave instead of honey. Out of blueberries, but we like strawberries more anyway, so that was okay. I rate it a B+. We're spoiled and have had Acai in Hawaii and all over the place. It was a bit too sweet and more granola than I would've liked. We prefer heavy Acai, light granola, heavy fruit. Maybe I should specify to the makers. We make them at home with the pure stuff and they're a little bitter, which we love. Was good, but would try another place for variety's sake next time. Great central location to Belmont and the park.
