We got two bowls, and I requested some swaps for my bowl which were quickly accommodated. I love the feel of the little Hispanic fruit stand, and let me just say that the açai did NOT disappoint. The base was genuinely one of the best bases I have had in California. Better than all of these chain shops that have fake açai. If you're looking for açai, this is the response to come to

I had no idea when I arrived that they would have such a huge selection of delicious items. I was almost overwhelmed. I think it was the owner who recommended the #3 green smoothie. It was all fresh ingredients and no sugar added and boy did it hit the spot. I can't wait to go back and try more things. Really great experience.

The only part that was strange is the granola, which was overly sweet and largely consisted of rice crispies ... never had that before. Other than the rice crispy-based granola, I enjoyed it. The best bit was the friendly service. They have such a large selection of açaí, so I'll return to try a different version that either doesn't have the granola or ask them to leave it off.

The staff (possibly the manager) stated that an old price and they can't update it (cough cough not sure how that's possible. Please get the yelp menu that's linked to your business updated in pricing so it's not misleading to your first time customers. In closing, staff was nice, and the smoothies is good. The interior is decked out in wall to wall plywood shapes to give it a overly rustic vibe. I recommend giving this place a try but don't believe the online prices. Also, be ready to have $0.25 charged for any disposable cup that contains liquid (another tax).

Fresh and thick. Size matters when it comes to burritos and The Point Market does it right. You have two options, small and large. Can't go wrong either way.

Enjoy your life and waddle over after your meal to the shore to take in the sights. The nays: cash only so expect to pay an ATM fee if you don't carry cash. There is an ATM inside.

Everyone was super nice and the place itself is so cute (it's a small house)! We got everything pictured. The muquecas was my favorite! Portions are pretty big and a lot of meat is included. Also the hot sauce pairs great with everything. My only complaint is that the caju juice was a bit watered-down and was around $10 (most of the drinks are $10+!). But the fruit they use IS unique to popular Brazilian juices. Overall, great southern Brazilian food and in a good location! Try the food if you're in the area!

The worker was super friendly and helpful when we asked questions. The inside is also such a cool vibe, with hammocks hung up and multiple cozy hang out spots.
