I ordered a small bowl and it was a big portion. Toppings are an extra charge, individually priced, and come on the side. I chose bananas, toasted coconut, and honey. The acai bowl is sweet enough on its own, so honey isn't necessary, but the toasted coconut added a great texture. This is a great restaurant. There is plenty of indoor and covered outdoor seating, a colorful atmosphere, and I was attended to quickly.

This was decent but I recommend the hot food. We also got fried tapioca here but it was very mid-tier compared to the ones you can find on the street. The real hidden winner hear though, is the Acai, which is one of the freshest I've had! Definitely would recommend some of the smoothies here!

Even with the rush the staff was smiling and interacting. Other customers helped me (english only speaker) order and offer their suggestions for the best scoop. Great visit.

When we saw Polis in an area we were walking, we knew we had to stop by for a nice chilled treat. It was very busy inside, which is usually a good sign that it will be a great spot (if people line up outside for it!) We went in and got in line to order. I saw they had a lot of Açaí drinks and shakes. And I saw they had flavors too like strawberry, mango, and blueberry. When my turn came up to order, I asked for a drink with strawberry and they said they only come in banana flavor. I was confused by that because I saw on the board they had strawberry (morango) as a flavor. But I went along with it since maybe they were out of strawberry? I got my banana drink and went outside with my friends, only to see that one of them got a strawberry drink! What the heck?! And unfortunately, my banana açaí drink was not the tastiest. I'm not sure if it was the açaí I didn't like, the banana flavor, or the mix of the two. It's also the fact that I didn't get what I wanted even though a friend got what I had clearly asked for just fine, and that left a bad taste in my mouth!

Bom dia! This is the place to get your açaí fix…read more Ordering from this place is a Brazilian experience and the staff here are used to having foreigners. They can understand English but even if they don't they want you to shout your order to them in your best Portuguese. They know what you want even before you open your month. And yes the açaí smooth is delicious. It's less sweet and more nuttier compared to the style they serve in the US. So I like it! I recommend getting the small size so you can leave room to try the other foods. Short walk to the beach so it's to the beach but hustle vibe.

The acai was sweet but not overly sweet. I got mango, pineapple and strawberries with it. I loved how they didn't just put the fruit on top but they layered it like a parfait. The sweetness of the acai with the tart of the fruit was such a delicious balance. We had it for lunch one day and as an after lunch snack another day. The people don't speak English but that's mostly all over Rio, you can just use google translate or point to what you want. They have bowls as well as different sized cups. It's a really nice place inside, clean too. But you can miss it if you're walking too fast.

For a tourist area this place is pretty cheap. The crepes, which they are famous for, are to die for. I highly recommend going all out and getting a both a savory crepe and a dessert crepe. I had the steak and fresh cheese (kind of like mozzarella but brazilian style). You won't believe how big the portion is. Go nuts on the dessert crepe you won't regret it. The other entrees are not as good however. Do not be deceived by the bright colors and large portion. Just stick to the crepes. They take card but they don't speak english--and they like to stare.
