    Banana bread
    Caity T.

    Overall I recommend this place, especially for açai bowls and since that's what they're marketing themselves as I'm sticking with 4 stars. The baked food is probably 3.5 stars. In total we got a Cali Bowl, coxinha with cream cheese, cheese bread, beef empanadas, and a slice of banana bread. Ordering is simple on two kiosk screens and the food came out fast with good customer service. The açai bowl in the regular size was shareable. Very tasty and refreshing. We went halfsies on it and then tried some of the pastries. 5/5 The beef empanadas are 4/5 good, seasoned nicely and served hot but not burn-your-mouth temperature.The dough was crispy without crumbling everywhere. Adding hot sauce makes them better. The coxinha with cream cheese was 4/5. Good portion and I liked the outer crumb texture and the creaminess inside. The dough was kinda gooey on one side though, and not in the way that made it seem on purpose. The cheese rolls were 3/5 so not our favorite, but maybe we weren't ready for the tapioca flour. They still *tasted* good, but the texture wasn't our thing. Banana bread wasn't super sweet and is served room temp. The slices are thick but I wish ours had been more moist. It's a dense bread! 3/5

    Sao Paulo (Most Popular) bowl. With mango instead of banana. As authentic as it gets!

    They have the best açaí base but not the freshest fruit toppings. Can't really review service because they require you to order off a screen rather than a live person. There's much opportunity for improvement.

    Amazing place, highly recommend! They have different bowls, cheese bread, coxinha, great staff and presentation

    I like they have the mini bowl option! It's small but was still filling for a lunch! The acai itself is yummy, not as liquidy as I normally like my acai normally. I like that the mango was an option for fruits. Easy to build your own bowl with kiosk. I think the acai here is more expensive than other local acai spots. It was $16 for my mini bowl after addition of some extra toppings like goji berries, flax seeds, agave, and peanut butter. Many other acai places give unlimited toppings. Fruit tasted fresh though and service was good!

    The Madly Mango

    Excellent taste and freshness like always, Absolute Fan here My favorite The Tahiti + sliced almonds and Nutella. Today I tried the madly mango, loved it too

    I should have taken the pic before we started digging in, but its that good!!

    Service is always an A+ and Chicago has a very inviting personality. Leo making the best Acai bowl.... everything on the menu is delicious. Super easy self ordering menu. I'd give 10+ 's if I could. Thank YOU for being the Best at what you do.

    I've never had such bad drinks. It's the first time my juices tasted bad, and I didn't come back to complain because I was in a hurry. My son's juice was a smoothie instead of juice, and mine is too unpleasant. It doesn't taste like other times. It seems like the fruit was old, and it tastes bad.

    I'm really torn on açaí because harvesting it puts many young children to adults in danger. My friend wanted to come here tonight, so I did, after not having it for a very long time since finding out about the backstory. The ambiance is 3/5. There are tables inside and outside, but outside; your entire view is of the parking lot. (However, Cream Pan is in the same area, so that's a major plus.) The workers were nice enough, but they didn't know how to honor the 10% discount for checking in on Yelp. WTH. If you're not honoring it, please take it down on Yelp. However, the worker showed me how to access their app and order through there to get 10% off every time you order (although I won't be ordering often). The app defaults to a 10% tip as well. The taste of the açaí bowl I got, the Tahiti with added almond butter, was really good especially on a summer's night. I wish they could find a way to make it safer for the people who are harvesting the açaí.

I spent about $14 for an açai bowl their tropical mango bowl I believe. I had some modifications since I didn't like the raw coconut offering or the banana so I opted for sliced almonds and extra mango with almond butter on top. After waiting a few minutes, looking at the bowl, it didn't look like much and sadly it didn't taste like much either. The almond butter was globed on top and made it really difficult to eat. After bypassing the almond butter I was able to get into the açai which was way too sweet. I'm not sure what type of açai they use, but it did not taste like a freshly prepared açai it tasted more artificial and overly sweet. It may have also been sweet because of the honey I believe they put on top of it. The combination of the açai with the honey and then almond butter was way too sweet. The mango was OK not as firm as I would want it to be and the granola was at the bottom at the bowl and also sprinkled on top, but unfortunately it was the worst acai bowl I've ever had. Parking is free and they do offer a few seats inside. The staff was also really nice but unfortunately, if I do decide to come back maybe I'll try a smoothie instead.
