Affordable & delicious! - Edit
Açai bowls are usually overpriced, but I found these to be really affordable - the smallest size (child) was enough to fill me up for breakfast.

Açaí Bowl Capitol of Santa Cruz’s - Edit
great choices. always fresh, all organic and a friendly efficient staff. My favorite is the Pele Bowl with peatnut butter. Value is in the quality of each and every ingredient.

Acai My Life Up! - Edit
Samba Rock Acai Cafe is a MUST for any acai enthusiast out there. One of the most refreshing treats I've had and a bit more heart healthy than your typical dairy ice cream or cookie.
Read moreI ordered the Carmen Miranda (large - $11) substituting with their passion fruit base. On top, it includes house granola, papaya, mango, and pineapples. My friend had also recommended adding coconut shavings to top to really give it a tropical feel, like if you were drinking a pina colada. SUCH a good decision was made here.
The acai bowl was one of the best I've had in a very long time. It was huge so I had it for two meals, so I think a kid's size would have been more than enough for the visit. Absolutely refreshing fruit blend loaded with fiber and natural sugars. If you're watching the added sugar however, I'd recommend going without the granola, but it was certainly a treat to enjoy with this bowl. It stayed crunchy for a while even after mixing everything together which does not always happen with packed acai bowls.
Everything is made to order which meant our wait time was a bit long (about 20 min), but it was well worth the delicious bowl. Even dropping in an hour before closing, they were still just as busy with phone and walk-in orders.
Pros: Amazing acai bowl options, Funky decor

Icy bowl, still good - Edit
Pretty sure they forgot to blend banana in with the açaí base (pelé bowl), as it was icy rather than creamy. However, the taste was still great and I love the recycling they do!

Yum - Edit
One of the best smoothies I've ever had. They have a variety of acai smoothies and they can make them vegan. The atmosphere was relaxed like a coffee shop, and the person who took my order was really nice. The place had a good vibe.
