This place is clean and new. The menu is missed spelled lol. The prices to mean are a little on the high side just by about a dollar in my opinion. Its a difcerent kind of spot you can get elote and shrimp tacos to crepes and boba. That Dragon bowl is oh so good. The only thing that is a negative is the waut time. There are usually four people working there when I go and I still have to wait a very long time. But I am a regular and the late closing time is the best. read more

Monky Bowl - Acai Bowls Near Me - Salinas, California

First of all, this place is super cute! It's a great place to go chill with friends and have a healthy or just a yummy snack. I got the Hot Cheetos Elote Bowl and its very good. I also got a twinky drink in a light bulb and that was super yummy and extra cute. The dragon Bowl was delicious i recommend the Flamingo!! I would definitely come back. read more

If I lived around the area, I definitely would go back again!! I got 1 tostada for $3 and I received a filled takeout box with shrimp, avocados, onions, and salsa. It was good enough to fill me up for lunch. This place is such a steal and definitely worth the money. The food tasted refreshing and makes you feel full for less than $5. The guy who made my tostada added so much avocados that chipotle should be ashamed for charging extra for their disgusting guacamole. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Two stars because of the smoothies! But if it wasnt for that id give then zero stars because of the slow service and getting my order wrong. I saw a picture of a crepe on the menu that had fruits and asked the girl if it had chocolate in it. She said no. I said okay good because I dont want chocolate. So I placed my order and waited and waited and waited. I was the first customer that walked in. It was empty when I got there, 2 other custmers walked in after me but I still waited like 20 minutes with 3 people working behind the counter. I decided to not be mad and tried to convince myself that they are working hard and as a customer I have no idea what tasks they are responsible for so I should be understanding. She handed me my crepe and I thanked her. Looked at my crepe and saw chocolate syrup on it!! I said I told you that I didnt want chocolate. She looked at another coworker or manager to respond to me and he said that thats how its made and it comes with it. I walked away. Didnt want my day to be ruined. I have worked in customer service pratically my whole life and if that was the case i would have offered to make a new one or give them a discount or give it to them for free or offer to make them a free drink for the inconvenience. For my smoothies I go to health cafe in marina or hidden fortress the press club in seaside. If im desperate for a smoothie id go there. read more

Great Place! I come here for the açaí bowels!! It's delicious. My favorite is the pink lady! There's lots of other delicious items here like boba drinks !! read more

My favorite. The text to order is super convenient. Love this place and their Hulk Bowls.

Went here couple days ago for the first time ordered a couple of things and the older man taking my order read it back to me correctly. After he made everything and gave it to me it was wrong. Went back and told him he did it wrong and he attitude with me saying he didn't make it wrong and didn't do anything about it. Bad customer service and for it being my first time. Sucks I mean the smoothie is good but after that it's a no for me. And after reading other people's reviews saying they've seen cockroaches there I ain't ever coming back now. I don't recommend this place. read more

It's a very nice place, and has good customer service. However, the Clamato drinks are not very good. I would suggest serving them more cold, and please don't add green apple it's taste very gross. read more

The service is horrible, I thought I would give Monky bowl a chance but dang me and my wife ordered the simplest drinks (honey dew boba & earl grey milk tea with boba) and it literally took them 13 mins to make 2 drinks. I mind you it was not busy at all 2 people at the most! I wouldn't recommend it to my friends and family cause there drinks are "ok" if you can put that in a category. We were very disappointed and they didn't even apologize to us for being slow. read more

First of all, ORGANIC, GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS, FRESH! I love they prep everything at the time you order. Can customize your drinks, ADD PROTEIN TO YOUR SHAKES! and even their sugar is organic. Salinas Best Place read more

Monky Bowl - Acai Bowls Near Me - Salinas, California

Just passing through looking for something light. This is a unique twist on an açaí bowl as while they offer some more traditional combinations - the only berry that is available for a topping is strawberry. Many of the combinations and options were certainly geared towards a hispanic fusion (i.e. like chile-lime salt). They also offered sweet and savory crepes, boba milk teas, and fruit cups. Most things looked pretty good. I'm giving it a 3 for 2 reasons: 1. Their main thing is supposed to be açaí bowls - and not even having blueberries and only strawberries when you have at least 10 other kinds of fruit and melon available is disappointing. They were also out of quite a few ingredients when we went. It makes me wonder if they even make their own açaí bases - I suspect not. 2. Slow.. I was the only order in. Took 30 minutes to make 2 bowls - the handful of strawberries and half a banana that needed cutting shouldn't take that long. They worker also proceeded to make another customer's crepe, even though I had ordered first! read more

Soooo delicious!!! I hate to give three stars BUT this is the second time I've gone and the same young man tried to over charge me. I truly hope it's by accident but believe he is not being honest or is not paying attention. I hate feeling like I have to make sure a company is charging correctly. I may not return for this reason. Management please review your transactions etc. to make sure no one is stealing. read more

This place is so cute and tasty! Clean and friendly staff. The first place like this in Salinas, 10/10 read more

Hit or miss orders. Sometimes my order is delicious and sometimes the fruit isn't ripe yet. The fruits are not cut proportionate, some are bite size and some are 2-3 inches. Friendly people though. read more

Monky Bowl - Uneven slices of pineapple. - Acai Bowls Near Me - Salinas, California

Customer service has been pretty bad lately. I come here 2/3 times a week, and they also make my order wrong. I ALWAYS ask for NO coconut flakes, and they add them anyways. The strawberries also taste as if they've been out for a while, kind of nasty. I'm literally NOT getting what I payrd for read more

This place is amazing. If you like bowls and smoothies you have to try this place. No long post needed to explain it but everything is fresh and good. Try it out!! read more

I've been here several times to grab a healthy snack on my break or on the go, and every time the snack has been amazingly delicious and fresh. I ordered a Açaí bowl just this last time had bananas, strawberries, with chia seeds. Staff is quick to make your bowls or drinks, the only thing I have to say is it's quite spendy, I've been to other places that don't break your wallet to have a healthy snack, but since salinas is limited with spots with healthy fresh food then I see the reason for the pricing. Definitely a spot I'll keep visiting. read more

If your looking for a good place for açaí bowls that's a definite place to go. They also have boba drinks if craving boba and have many flavors to choose on. I tend to go at least twice each week and come out satisfied with my Purchase every time read more

Awesome options and very nice service from Jose :). There are various options of bowls, shots, crepes and of course healthy over all food.

I have only been here once but it was pretty good!Had no clue what to order but the cashier was kind enough to recommend one of their juices. She recommended the glow me - DELICIOUS AND REFRESHING I will definitely go back just to try their bowls, smoothies, or any of their other delicious snacks! read more

Lovers point is sooo good!! They have healthy juice shots that i'll be trying next time!!

I was excited to find another boba place in Salinas, but not for $6 for a large cup. The boba was good but too expensive for what it is. I liked that they offered different types of milk teas, but The employees cant even describe some of the milk teas when asked what certain ones are (like Tiger milk tea). I resorted to the usual honeydew and taro milk teas. I wanted to try the egg puffs but they no longer offer them. Huge bummer! read more

Was craving a açaí/ berry bowl while visiting my family in salinas and yes! There is a bowl place here! I got the "hulk" and my mom got the other green bowl (don't remember the name). They were both fresh and super yummy! Mine had strawberries, bananas, coconut, almond butter, and granola on top and they even put a layer of granola and almond butter at the bottom. Very friendly staff, clean, and there was tons of other stuff on the menu. Definitely returning when I need a break from meat. read more

I love this place! It's right across the street from my work and they just recently opened and they are doing a fantastic job. I love the vegan options and the healthy açaí bowls!!! but don't worry they have more then healthy food they have deserts and hot Cheeto bowls and stuff too! read more

Pretty good, weird location, lots of options on the menu. Had the acai bowl and a immune booster shot. Good portions and fresh ingredients, few of the fruits were under ripe though, like the Mango and Strawberries specifically. read more

Gave this place two tries. My biggest complaint is how slow it is! It always takes 10-15 minutes for me to get a simple blended boba drink. This time the girl gave me a large when I ordered a small and the drink is tasteless. It actually is a gigantic cup full of crushed ice. It's sad cause I was giving it a second try and wanted to turn out good. How about some Real tea? Not powder!!! How about coconut milk! They don't have it. The light In the bathroom did t work and I had to use my phone as a light. Sorry, I can't go back. Maybe it's just being mismanaged. read more

Wife had heard a lot of positive comments about this place. After her haircut we went in and got a St. Bailon savory crepe and a Honey Oaks green bowl. Sure was we worth the effort. Must come to partake. read more

Seriously, the fact that I haven't been here sooner is crazy. Amazing and fresh, hits the spot every time. The workers are so nice and informative. I came here for the first time Saturday and came right back Sunday. Really good prices for what you get, every size. I recommend the açaí and dragon fruit bowls. THE CREPES!!!! OMG. I've had the sweet and savory ones. Can't go wrong either on. The horchata blended drink and any of the green juices, with celery, are AMAZING. Then to top all of this goodness off, a fruita bowl w/ lemon, lime, tajin and chamoy type stuff. SO FIRE! Seriously can't go wrong at this place. read more

We had crepes, smoothies, and acai bowls after buying a car across the freeway. We were very well taken care of, and enjoyed the food! Staff way amazing! read more

I like milk tea, but often get disappointed in the quality. Not so here. The jasmine milk tea is made fresh with brewed tea, not from a powder. The level of sweetness was perfect. That's another thing lots of places get wrong. I came here twice last week and both times the quality was the same. The tea does require some time to brew, so it's not super fast. Worth the wait. read more

I've tried this place a couple times and was very pleased. Love it's convenient location... it's pricey, but it's delicious!

I used to really like this place but the last couple times I've gone the girls that are there don't know how to make my order but this last time I went the gave me really stale hot Cheetos with my corn read more
