Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

I bought a Cloud 9 size regular and it was so bad. It was around $16 and the base was so bad. You know when you leave out ice cream and try freezing it again but it has a nasty freezer burnt texture and flavor? That’s exactly how it tasted. Like it was melted, then refrozen. It tasted nothing like coconut and instead … Gas. If the smell of gas had a flavor that’s what this tasted like lol. The place is cute for pictures but the floor was dirty and it just wasn’t too clean. Also if I walk in and order why does it take like 8 minutes to get my bowl… it’s just not good guys. It’s not worth your money or time to come. It might be like “healthy” but it just doesn’t taste good. I’d recommend just going to a regular ice cream place for like coconut ice cream. But the granola was nice, and the fruit was fine. It’s just the base had a nasty taste and not good texture. Don’t waste almost $20 lol. Both me and my friend had it, and didn’t like it at all.

I ordered online but the system was down (womp womp) thankfully the girls working here were wonderful and quickly worked together to put my rather large order together. All 8 acai bowls were done in 10 minutes. Delicious 😋

I’m a huge fan of Tropical Smoothie Cafe. But this place blew me away. Coconut, açaí, peanut butter and granola and honey was mind blowing! The staff was warm and friendly. The dining area and bathrooms were exceptionally clean. Atmosphere is just right. I’ll be back here many times, well worth the price!
