    Island Bowl
    Alma R.

    First time here and I can see why the line is so long at 9:30pm! I was craving an açaí bowl and of course at 9pm all places are closed. Thank you Yelp for leading me to this little popular gem! They have a wide selection of bowls with so many ingredients to chose from. They have 3 friendly workers asking what ingredients you want, each at a different station of items, like base, fruits and dry toppings. Anything can be customized around the bowl you chose from their menu or make one of your own. The ambiance is totally chill but with only 3 tables be ready to take it to go if there's no room. They do have a lot of free standing chairs to hang around in as well. Glad I was able to satisfy my sweet tooth tonight with a healthy option. I'll be back!

    I really appreciated that this spot was open late at night!!! It's bright, clean, and everything tasted fresh despite it being the end of the day. I also got some free merch (I think it was after checking in on Yelp, but not sure if that promo is still going on).

    Island Bodega is still my go-to açaí bowl spot! I'm still hooked! The service is so attentive and welcoming and I love the upgrades to their seating/tables...it's so aesthetic!

    One of my favorite acai spots in Long Beach! The bowls are always fresh, delicious, and satisfying. Some of my fav topics are pumpkin seeds and almond slices for a healthy crunch (skip or go light on granola). I love kiwis and not very many acai shops offer it. The staff is consistently friendly and welcoming. Definitely a go-to whenever I'm craving a good acai.

    Driven by this place 100s of times and kept wanting to come by to give it a try....well today was the perfect time to finally drop by after going to Aldi.... The staff were nice and friendly the place is clean and relaxing...but I got mine to go.... I got the Island Bowl with a few modifications....and as mentioned to go.... I felt like it was pretty fresh and really good actually. I'll have to drop by again another day to get one!

    Stopped by Island Bodega and grabbed two açaí bowls and wow... didn't expect to be this impressed. Both bowls were super fresh, perfectly chilled, and not overly sweet like some places that just load it with syrup. You can actually taste the real açaí, which I appreciated. The fruit toppings were bright, ripe, and generous (not skimpy at all), and the granola had that perfect crunch without being rock hard. One bowl leaned more classic and refreshing, the other had a slightly richer, dessert vibe--both hit in their own way. Also, the presentation was clean and pretty (yes, it matters), and everything tasted like it was made with care, not rushed. You can tell they're consistent with quality.

    This açaí bar offers fantastic service, a clean and inviting environment, and an impressive menu with a wide variety of delicious options. I've been here multiple times, and each visit has been a positive experience. It's a great addition to the area.

    The staff is very nice and the bowls are delicious! The size of the bowls were perfect. The servings are very generous. Does not disappoint!!

    The chocolate flavor is really good, will not be too sweet or bitter. The banana slice makes a good combination with it, recommend to add some pumpkin seeds for rich mouth feeling. Turtle loves it!!

    Love the acai bowl here turtles Love it too!! The atmosphere is great, the turtles are so cute!!!

    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!

    SO GOOD!! And their always really understanding about my allergy to kiwis always grabbing new fruit and changing gloves.! love this place!!

    Love this place been coming for years! always accommodating to ny allergies! love it here!! will continue coming back only acai place i love in cerritos

    Mia T.

    I ordered a large bowl through DoorDash. Received my bowl with almost full of the blue island base. I hope they don't do this bec nobody wants to eat only the base. Pls put more toppings evenly. These bowls arent cheap. Im disappointed. The toppings were very little

    Ask the Community - Island Bodega

    Is the Pitaya base made of pure fruit or does it have sweetener or other juice/fruit mix added?

    Hi what can be made with No sugar?

    I don't think they offer anything sugar free

    Is the granola gluten free?

    No, all of our granolas contain gluten.

    Do you do points? This place do points with CashApp I wished one of the worker had told me soon been coming here a few times already and could of earned at least 36 -45 points by now.

    on the screen it's before you pay where it says "sign up/see rewards" on the right in blue and also after the receipt option!

    Is coconut cream still offered as a base?

    I was just in there & they mentioned it runs out fast. They had another flavor sold out that day too. 😩

    Is this place authentically Brazilian?

    No, it is not

    Do they have vegan options?

    I think most of their bases are vegan and they have agave as a topping. As for the granola, asl which one has honey/egg whites etc

    What food delivery service do they work with?

    Grubhub, Doordash, Postmates, and Ubereats

    Found this cute, small cafe while looking for breakfast after dropping our car off for service…read more We opted for the breakfast burrito and a side of biscuits and gravy. The burrito was tasty - loaded with eggs, bacon and ham, hash browns with crispy bits, cheese, and fresh pico de gallo. 10/10 Salsa Verde was flavorful, could use more heat. 9/10 The buttermilk biscuits were topped with sausage gravy. The biscuits were great, crispy on the edges, soft in the middle. The gravy was too salty for both of us. It's our first time here, so I'm not certain if that is how the gravy normally is or if they just got a bit heavy handed with the salt today. Service is fantastic - everyone is really attentive and friendly. We will return when in the neighborhood.

Unfortunately, great food and friendly service weren't enough to outweigh the inconveniences. I'm not high-maintenance, but I do value a smooth dining experience. My friend wasn't allowed to be seated until I arrived, which felt unnecessary. They also wouldn't provide separate checks. We were told they could accept two forms of payment on one check, but when it came time to pay, they would only split the bill evenly, even though I ordered more than my friend. The seating was very cramped, there wasn't a mirror in the restroom, and the toilet didn't flush. The food was great, but the overall experience wasn't. I'd recommend ordering to-go instead. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

    Had a great experience at 19Seventy!! Went here to celebrate my mom's birthday with a party of 8…read more Right from the beginning, the service was excellent! Our server was Ashley and she was so friendly and sweet! She answered all our questions and was very attentive to us throughout the dinner! She even refilled my hot water multiple times, which is SO RARE in a restaurant!!!! The food itself was delicious and had great portion sizes! The appetizers were great (calamari and caprese salad)! Good shareable portions for the table! For dinner, we ordered the short rib pappardelle, which was DELICIOUS and was a hit!!! There was more than enough to split among three people! I had the grilled salmon salad which had a good hefty portion of salmon that was perfectly grilled, on a huge bowl of greens! The restaurant gave my mom a complimentary canoli for her birthday too, which was awesome! Thank you so much for the great food and excellent service!

We didn't get her name but she had glasses and septum nose piercing. She was more accommodating at then end but we were very off put at the beginning and it left a bad taste in our mouths. Our server at our table was the complete opposite. Very attentive and made the group less angry with our initial treatment. Wish I got her name to share. The desert and cocktails were nice but due to the service it did not make up for the overall experience. Desert: Tiramisu 4/5 - great flavor, ratio of cream was too much compared to cake portion Canolli 4/5 - duo flavors were nice and had a good shell with crunch Crème brûlée 2/5 - pistachio flavor was light and it's was almost too warm and liquidy. Cocktails overall some major hits and other misses. Sgroppino 5/5 - strong but with a great flavor profile Dragon fruit cocktail 2/5 - too light tasting, not much flavor or alcohol? Gave more juice Peach Bellini 4.5/5 - table side pour is nice touch and rest of bottle was nice. Syrup has a sourness but mixed in with Bellini and gelato and tasted just right. Melontini - 2.5/5 light, somewhat good flavor but nothing memorable. Ambience seems nice but it can be loud inside with open floor plan.
