At first, I thought the prices here were steep... that is, until I looked at prices of other acai…read morebowl places in the area. Not only are other places more expensive, they also limit your toppings/add-ons. At $13.50 for a medium bowl that can easily replace a meal, I say this is well worth it. They stack the bowls high and you can pretty much get whatever you want! Their tropical bases tend to be on the sweeter end. Next time, I'd opt out of any additional sweetener on top (I got a honey drizzle). If you're in the area looking for something refreshing and not too heavy, I'd highly recommend stopping by here. Considering that the small is almost $10 already, I'd just upgrade to the medium and share (or not share...)

Following my last review, I decided to give Palmetto Santa Row another chance…read more Unfortunately, I can't say they live up to expectations. The quality of fruit and other ingredients is a step below the Palo Alto location (but that's an extremely busy plaza and probably doesn't warrant driving up there just for açaí lol) I got some photos since the bowl here looked nice, but flavor profile just wasn't there. Overly sweet on the coconut element inside the açaí bowl.

I'm not usually one to frequent this shop, but a $5 coupon finally gave me the excuse to try one of…read morethose "investment-grade" smoothies I've been eyeing. I went with the Coffee Crunch, and honestly, it's no joke, it is delicious and absolutely packed. However, at an $11 price point, that coupon was the only thing keeping it in the "reasonable" category for me, especially since the portion is just a standard size rather than something more substantial. The layout of the place is a bit of a trip; unlike Jamba where everything is out in the open, the staff here is tucked away in a back kitchen area. I spent about five minutes waiting for my order to emerge, wondering if I'd been forgotten! But if you're looking for a quiet escape with god-tier air conditioning, this is the spot. I stopped by on a sweltering afternoon and it was nearly empty, cool as a whistle, and filled with trendy, comfortable seating rather than your typical stiff restaurant chairs. While I'm personally not a "bowl" person, the rest of the menu looks great. It's definitely got more of a local health-spot soul compared to the corporate feel of the Jamba down the street. I'll definitely be passing this place along to my pre-teen daughter, it feels exactly like the kind of trendy hangout she's going to live at as she gets older. Go for the crunch, but definitely stay for the AC.

Tried Vitality Bowls and ordered the PB&J chia seed toast and the açaí elixir. The toast was…read morefreaking phenomenal -- honestly one of the best PB&J-style things I've ever had. Highly recommend it! It's layered with so many good ingredients and the flavors work perfectly together. The only small downside is that they didn't have knives or forks available. Because the toast is so stacked, it's a little tricky to eat with your hands. That said... it was so good I didn't really care. The açaí elixir was also pretty good. Refreshing and something I'd order again. Service was a little slow but friendly, and the place seemed fairly clean overall. I usually go for a bowl at places like this, so next time I definitely want to come back and try some of their açaí bowls -- but once I saw that PB&J toast on the menu, I was locked in. Overall, I liked this place and would definitely come back.

When we walked in, the staff greeted us. We looked at the menu for a while before deciding on a bowl to share. We ordered the medium sized Harvest Blend Bowl. This bowl came with Acai, Coconut Beach, Steel Cut Oats, Caotella Butter, Plus Roasted Coffee Granola, Strawberries, Mango, Banana, Pumpkin Seeds, Mulberries, and Matcha Powder. They were out of the Caotella butter so we opted for almond butter. Our order was ready in a few minutes. This was so delicious and filling. It's definitely a healthier option than have an ice cream. I've never had anything like this before. I loved it. My husband loved it as well. I would definitely come back to try other bowls. You can even build your own bowl. They also offer a variety of smoothies. They have seating inside which is convenient. It's nice to know that there are healthy options like this available that actually taste amazing. We will definitely be back.

They even randomly gave me a new mix of guava coconut smoothie, and it was easily the best thing I've had here. I get it every time now.

The menu prices posted online don't match the in-person menu. For example, the chilaquiles were listed at $17.45 online but $19.45 in-store. Online ordering uses the correct lower price. Nevertheless, the chilaquiles arrived after 15 minutes and they were phenomenal. It's surprisingly difficult to find chilaquiles that get every component right. Usually, the chips are soggy, the beans are forgettable, or the protein feels like an afterthought. Not here! The texture was exactly what I wanted. Chips were softened enough to absorb the sauce but still maintaining some structure and bite. The black beans were cooked perfectly, the jalapeños added a pleasant kick without overwhelming the dish, and the beef chorizo wasn't rationed out. There was a generous amount throughout, and every bite felt balanced. Perfect amount of salt and seasoning. Service was excellent as well. Friendly, attentive, and efficient without being intrusive. Finding parking, however, was another story. After circling the area, we eventually turned onto Auzerais Avenue, found street parking, and walked a few minutes back. Not the end of the world, but definitely something to keep in mind before visiting. Between the parking situation and the menu pricing discrepancy, there are a couple of minor annoyances. But when the food is this good, they're easy to overlook. These were some of the best chilaquiles I've had in San Jose, and that's ultimately what I'll remember. If the rest of the menu is anywhere near this level, I'll gladly be back at iJAVA.

Habibi this place is halal!…read more I'm not sure what I was expecting when I put the address to IJAVA into my navigation system but definitely wasnt expecting this to be the top 3 best breakfast burrito I've ever had. Upon arrival iJAVA doesn't seem like it would knock your socks off, simple clean decor which I always appreciate. The menu is somewhat limited for breakfast but I love that they serve it all day long. My mom ordered the eggs Benedict and I got the tri-tip breakfast burrito the eggs Bennedict was so yummy and I was amazed by the potato and bacon that came as the side for over $21 though I will say it's on the pricier range. The beef brisket breakfast burrito at $17.95 was very reasonable in my opinion as it included very high quality beef brisket that was so tender. I'm usually not a fan of barbecue sauce, but it works well here! Both portion sizes were great! You will leave full Overall, I was super impressed by this spot and I'm so happy we have a brunch spot that's halal. I would 100% come back. Especially since the service was kind too. Oh and parking isn't great so factor in an extra 10 minutes for that.
