Island Bodega has one of the best açaí bowls I've had! The açaí was smooth, flavorful, and not overly sweet, and all the fruit tasted incredibly fresh. The toppings were generous, and I loved the perfect balance of textures and flavors in every bite. The presentation was beautiful, the portions were filling, and you can tell they use high-quality ingredients. The staff was also friendly, and the shop had a clean, welcoming vibe. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm craving an açaí bowl. Highly recommend! read more

Island Bodega is hands down one of my favorite acai spots. I got the small build-your-own for $11, which is honestly such a great deal for unlimited bases and toppings. You get so much flexibility, and I love how customizable everything is. The bases are always the perfect texture and never icy. Everything just tastes super fresh and it's consistently good every time I go. Definitely my go-to when I'm craving acai and in the area! read more

Looking for great açaí bowls? This is your place! I have been coming here for a month now, and I cannot get enough of it. The bowls are fresh and unique. There are many options which means many opportunities to test out and create your ideal bowl. I find simplicity is the best. Mine is açaí with bananas, blueberries, peanut butter and granola. Oh...it's so delicious! It's so delicious that I come here at least twice a week. Speaking of visiting the Island Bodega...I'm actually consuming my bowl as I am composing this review...lol! The service is great and the establishment is super clean. The vibe is nice and there is ample parking. It's worth the visit to try out.

Solid option to satisfy your acai craving. Create your own bowl (pick a size, layer it, and then top it!) or pick from one of their signature recommendations. Decided to create my own bowl and it was delicious! What's in my order? Medium bowl (16oz) with half acai/half matcha base topped with honey almond granola, strawberries, blueberries, bananas, and toasted coconut drizzled with honey. So good! Ordering online was super easy and my order was ready a little before the designated time. read more

First things first, make sure to download the app so you can rack up points and snag some amazing deals! You'll love the buy one, get one free offer! If you're in the mood for something lightly sweetened and packed with antioxidant fruits, you have to try the ACAI bowl. I absolutely LOVE the chia seeds pudding they add on! As a big fan of coffee and tea, I sometimes take little breaks to refresh and detox. I can't get enough of the signature Island bowl--it's simply delightful. The coconut matcha bowl was alright, but I found it a bit on the bland side. I really love both coconut and matcha; I just don't think they fit my acai bowl preference! This adorable spot is tucked right next to 85 Degrees and the Gens KBBQ plaza. The vibe is super cute and clean--plus, even though it's a small place, there are plenty of seats to enjoy your treat! read more

I reached out to Blue Bowl and gave them the opportunity to make this right, but they refused to rectify the mistake.

Simple decor with bright lights. You'll have to walk straight in and right to order. I was greeted immediately with a smile and nice welcome upon entry. Thank you young lady! They have their house-created favorites such as Amazon, Cacao, Mango Chamoy, Dragon, Green Goodness, Island, Tropical, and Very Berry Bowls or you may build your own (BYO) acai or fruit bowl. BYO works like this... you choose a size (12 oz $11, 16 oz $13, 24 oz $15 (this is a steal!), select up to two bases (acai, pitaya, matcha, coconut, cacao, and selective fruits), then fill the bowl with the toppings you want. You pay for the size you want, not for each topping that fits inside the bowl. Bases are made without cane sugar and granolas are certified gluten free. I went with the BYO 16 oz option. I was tempted to get the 24 oz for an extra $2, but I didn't. Now that I think back, I should have gone BIG. I know better next time. Anyway, got the coconut and mango bases plus a whole lot of toppings that filled the bowl to the top. It was so refreshingly good and delicious.

The ratio of ice to a açaí is more ice than açaí which gives it a more watered down taste. Other places offer a better mix ratio. Overall it was good and refreshing. Just nothing to write home about.

I'm glad this place opened up in my hometown. Cerritos was definitely lacking an açaí place and Island Bodega fills the void. You can't go wrong customizing your own bowl with unlimited toppings for free! The small is $7 and is worth it. They pack your bowl with whatever bases you'd like from acai, pitaya, blue island, matcha, and coconut cream. I got the açaí and blue island and excited to try the other flavors next time. They sure don't skimp on the toppings here and you can get as many toppings as you'd like. When I went here one girl got literally everything and the guy Jeff made the bowl look so aesthetic. There's another girl here too that is super patient and has the best customer service she's Asian with glasses. Parking here is a little easier to find since it's on the corner lot so you can utilize Aldis parking or behind the building. Don't forget to try their island bodega latte iced. It's def my top 3 coffees of all time. It just blends in together so smoothly and I can't find this flavor anywhere else! I'm definitely going to frequent Island Bodega when I can cause it makes a good meal replacement for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. But today it was my dessert! P.S they got the best blue chia seed pudding ever. I can eat that by itself. read more

Island Bodega is an absolute must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in something both sweet and satisfying. The ambiance is inviting with a clean, open-concept design, where all the açaí ingredients are clearly displayed, making it easy to order. The staff is friendly and helpful, even allowing you to sample the bases of the bowls before making your choice. The variety here is fantastic. You can layer different flavors to create your perfect bowl. My personal favorite is the coconut cream and mango base--rich, refreshing, and just right! The chocolate and vanilla chia pudding options are also excellent, adding a unique twist to your bowl. The fruit choices are top-notch, with options like banana, strawberry, and kiwi. The toppings are where Island Bodega really shines, offering everything from hemp granola, toasted coconut, and cashews to bee pollen, pumpkin seeds, and cashew butter. The combinations are endless, and they're all so delicious--seriously, so bomb! The space is cozy, with about 3-4 high top tables, which adds to its charm. If you looking for something sweet with fresh ingredients this is the place. I highly recommend giving it a try! read more

Island Bodega, you've stolen my heart! I'm obsessed with your açaí bowls, and Gabby, you're the real MVP! The vibrant colors and lively atmosphere drew me in. But it's the food that kept me coming back for more. The Açaí Bowls are a GAME CHANGER- the perfect blend of creamy, sweet, and tangy. I mean who else can make frozen fruit taste like a tropical paradise? But what truly sets Island Bodega apart is the exceptional service. Gabby, your warmth, kindness, and infectious smile make every visit feel like a reunion. You take the time to get to know your customers, offered personalized recommendation, and make sure everyone leaves feeling satisfied and happy. Your passion for the food and the community is palpable, and it's clear that you're exactly where you're meant to be. Gabby and the entire Island Bodega team, please know that you're making a real difference in the lives of your customers. Your dedication to serving delicious food and creating a welcoming atmosphere is truly appreciate. I'll be back for more- and I'll bring friend ! read more

I had the most delicious acai bowl ever at Island Bodega. It was so refreshing and totally energizing. I ordered the blue chia bowl, which had acai, matcha, blue chia, banana, strawberry, blueberries, and kiwi. The fruits were super fresh and the toppings were generous. I loved the hemp granola and the cacao nibs that added some crunch and flavor. The bowl was also very filling and satisfying. The customer service was very nice and friendly. They greeted me with a smile and took my order quickly. The shop was clean and cozy, with lots of plants and a good vibe. I enjoyed sitting at the counter and watching them make the bowls. Island Bodega is definitely my new favorite spot for acai bowls. They have a great selection of bases, fruits, and toppings, and you can also create your own bowl if you want. They also have shaved ice, coffee, tea, and other drinks. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves healthy and tasty food. read more

I hope this message finds you well. I have been a regular customer at your location for the past year, but I must express my disappointment with the service and food quality over the last two months. The service has noticeably declined, with employees being unpleasant and lacking basic courtesy. Additionally, my family and I are very dissatisfied with the quality of the bananas you now carry. We strongly prefer fresh, firm bananas, but recently, the only option has been overly ripened ones. Moreover, I've noticed a decline in the portion sizes, particularly with how skimpy the bowls are layered, which leaves us feeling like we're not getting the same value we once did. While I don't intend to return at this point, I wanted to provide this feedback privately, as I believe your business has the potential to please the community once again with some adjustments. read more

So yummy so pretty inside nice customer service. So pretty inside. I recently visited Acai Place, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The acai bowls were absolutely delicious, with fresh, high-quality ingredients and generous portions. I loved how customizable the menu was, allowing me to add my favorite toppings like granola, fresh fruit, and honey. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and everything tasted so fresh and natural. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and quick to prepare my order, even though the shop was busy. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a healthy treat. I also appreciated the reasonable prices for the quality and portion sizes. Acai Place has definitely become my go-to spot for a refreshing and nutritious snack--I highly recommend it! read more

I was looking for poke for lunch 12/18/19 at 12:05pm but ended up going to this newly soft opened acai place. Gorgeous looking and well built, plenty of seating arrangements. First thing you'll notice is the lit up turtle on the wall and window which is a nice touch for pics. They had ENDLESS amount of toppings and drizzles condiments, I've had a couple of acai bowls in Hawaii but having it closer to home less than 3 miles is a kudo! The staff was super friendly and outgoing! You can try samples if you're not familiar which I recommend doing for first timers! Menu is super easy and pricing is on point. They make building your own bowl a breeze! I over heard the staff were giving away prizes on grandopening day! I'll be sure to be back 12/21/19! read more

Island Bodega is a great spot, especially for those who love açaí bowls--even if you're not typically a fan, this place might change your mind. Their portions are generous, giving you good value for your money. The ambiance inside is inviting, with plenty of seating options, making it a nice spot to relax. The staff is super friendly and always ready to offer helpful recommendations. The only downside is that the parking lot, while large, can get crowded during peak times like nights and weekends. Also, their mobile app could use some improvements--it doesn't always allow me to scan my receipts for points, which is a bit frustrating. Overall, a solid experience with just a couple of areas for improvement. read more

Yo big bad bobbby using the last of his data to write this review. Wanna get a hold of something new? Guess what it ain't my shoes! It's an Acai Bowl place in Cerritos! (Man this city has everything) I stumbled across this place because I used to take all my shawtys to North Shore but it closed down. I didn't wanna look like a chump so I told shawty this was the right place. I went in and didn't have a clue what to order so I hit the yelp up and showed the employee a picture. Man oh man, did they make it look just like the picture. I guess you can say these yungstas got their bowl making down to a science. Bowl was deelickchusss even shawty was surprised.

I recently tried the açaí bowl at Island Bodega, and it was an absolute delight! The base was smooth and flavorful, with just the right balance of sweetness and tartness that you expect from quality açaí. What really set it apart was the freshness of the toppings--perfectly ripe bananas, fresh strawberries, crunchy granola, and a drizzle of honey that tied everything together. The portion size was generous and left me feeling satisfied without being too heavy. The presentation was beautiful as well, making it just as visually appealing as it was tasty. Overall, the açaí bowl at Island Bodega is a must-try for anyone looking for a healthy, refreshing treat. I'll definitely be back for more! read more

It was so underwhelming and unseasoned I genuinely sat there confused, like... is this a prank? Did somebody forget salt exists?

Never table-touched, never checked in. They could literally see the looks on our faces and still kept walking by like we were invisible. We ended up throwing most of it away. I only took the egg and those sad, unseasoned potatoes home so I could try to rescue them myself. The bacon? Delicious. Absolute legend. Everything else tasted like it was cooked by someone who's never met a spice rack. To the owner: please, for the love of brunch, go find the seasoning. It's out there somewhere. We believe in you.
