    Love this place. Always delicious, healthy, and a clean atmosphere. A healthy lunch stop or healthy take-out. They have the freshest, highest-quality ingredients that are healthy and delicious.

    Nice little spot right beside Gus's chicken for reference. Super friendly staff. Food is absolutely on point, fresh and delicious. 0 complaints. Will be going back many more times. In the pics are the Tide, Goldie Mango, and Pura Vida Bowls. All delicious but the Tide is the winner so far IMO

    Pretty dope spot if you're an Acai lover like myself. Very cool vibes with open seating. The workers are very helpful and kind. This was the first time I've seen a greens base acai & banana base which was bomb must I say! Give this place a try, your body temple will love it!

    If you're thinking about trying it, just do it! All of the bowls we tried were delicious. They will allow you to sample the bases so you make an informed decision when choosing a bowl. You can also mix bases so I got the coconut & Pitaya base for the electric mermaid bowl which was so refreshing! My sister chose mango & Pitaya and her bowl was equally delicious. Lovely establishment with great service. They also have a spacious patio that we enjoyed. I'll be back soon!

    I reluctantly went here with the hubs. I have had what I consider the best açaí in the world at daCove in Honolulu. So off we go. Boy was I surprised when we entered, the decor is great! You instantly feel happy just looking at the colors. They have three large boards with the menu (all explained). They don't just have açaí they have pitaya, smoothies, and cold brew! We ordered the tropical açaí and Nutella açaí bowls. They were large and delicious. They prepare it while you wait so it's all fresh. They have a few tables and a large high top table and outdoor seating. The patio has a pergola but no shade. If you eat outside in Memphis in the summer you would have açaí soup.....it would be better if it were covered. You order and pay at the counter, then they call you when your order is ready. We will be back, because it was amazing!

    I absolutely love the vibes of this place! I walked in and the music was playing and the layout was cute, colorful, and fun! Ordering was super easy and the cashier was very kind and able to answer any questions that I had. I did order my bowls to go and they were both ready in less than 10 minutes. I ordered the mango berry bowl with half mango and half coconut base and I added banana. I ordered the Pura Vida açaí bowl for my husband. It was soooooo good yall! I have found my new açaí bowl spot. I will say that the coconut base was my favorite out of the two. There are so many options that I'm going to have to try everything. Lol

    I really enjoyed coming here and grabbing a bowl after my workout. The staff was so kind and were accommodative with my friend's allergy. The inside is is so cute and very tropical which matches the theme.

    When you walk in this place is so bright, colorful, and beautiful. The bowls were so delicious and fresh. Customer service was 10/10 everyone looked so happy to be there.

    Small portions. Rude staff. Do not honor advertise specials. Bait and switch. Do not waste your time here.

    I am glad that I stumbled upon this place. I love a good acai bowl and I was eager to see what else…read morethey had to offer. When I walked in it was very welcoming, clean, and had a fresh modern feel. I was happy to see all of the fresh ingredients being offered. My order was made fresh! I had the smoked salmon croffle! It was pretty good. It's not a huge portion, but it gets the job done. It's small, but packed with flavor. It had salmon, cream cheese.sliced lemons, capers, and dill. I also ordered the Boraklyn Acai bowl. It had acai, granol, strawberry, banna, cashew butter, chia seed and honey. I enjoyed it. I want to try the other bowls. To drink, I ordered the green health. It has spinach, kale, celery, cucumber, and apple. The service was great as well. I enjoyed dining in. I will be going back!

    Just tried Bora Bora for the first time and LOVED it! Tried 3 croffles: salmon, eggs Benedict…read more(which has no sauce of any kind on it), and the Halloumi. All were great! Smaller than expected, but delicious! The salmon was my favorite. My Spanish iced latte was perfect, just sweet enough but still a good coffee flavor. The Island Vibe bowl was so pretty and just as tasty. The Pink Freeze was so fun! The Dubai crepe, which is why we came, was amazing! They did not skimp on anything! Overall, a wonderful experience and we definitely will be back! (As I'm sitting in my car typing this, the owner is already spraying and wiping down our table and chairs!)

    Liquor Store MEM 27…read moreJuly 2026 Synopsis: Breakfast worth crossing state lines. There are restaurants that feed you. Then there are restaurants that grab you by the collar, slap the stupid out of your face, pour you a generous vodka, and remind you why civilization bothered inventing fire. Liquor Store is the latter. You'll find it at the corner of Poplar and Mendenhall, where Memphis traffic oozes through the intersection like molasses contemplating life. Parking isn't abundant, so prepare to circle a bit. We somehow snagged the very last space, which immediately felt like the culinary gods whispering, "Yeah... today's your day." The second you walk inside, the heat dies. Not "bank lobby in Memphis where your sweat flash-freezes into an ice sculpture" cold. Just perfectly air-conditioned. The kind of temperature where your body finally stops negotiating with humidity and starts believing in happiness again. The room breathes. High ceilings--but not cathedral or airplane-hangar ridiculous. Just enough space to make the place feel alive without feeling like you're eating breakfast in a Costco. Then comes the staff. Fast. Friendly. Professional. Zero wasted motion. These people move with the confidence of mechanics during a Formula One pit stop. Nobody is pretending to be busy. They actually are busy, and somehow they're smiling while doing it. Tyler had our backs from beginning to end. Now let's talk about whoever was commanding the kitchen. That beautiful lunatic has BTUs at his fingertips and clearly understands that cooking is not merely chemistry--it is controlled violence against hunger. I ordered the Sweet Potato Hash. Normally it comes with vegan sausage. No. Absolutely not. Life is too short. I asked if they could substitute chicken instead. They didn't blink. No sigh. No "let me ask." No drama. Just an effortless, "Sure." About four minutes later--and I was the kind of hungry where I'd have considered eating the menu--that masterpiece landed in front of me. Friends... I've eaten breakfast from San Francisco to New York, from roadside diners to hotel brunches where they charge you because they know you'll pay. This was the best breakfast hash I've ever eaten. The chicken was juicy. The sweet potatoes had actual personality instead of being sugary mush. The sautéed spinach deserved its own fan club. Then there was the sunny-side-up egg. Listen carefully. A proper sunny-side egg is one of the great disappearing arts. This one had crisp edges worthy of applause while the yolk remained gloriously molten, ready to flood every bite with liquid gold. Not greasy. Not overloaded with salt. Not trying to impress Instagram. Just perfect. Then there was the vodka. And bless these people... When they say "well vodka," they apparently interpret that as, "Let's not insult the customer." They pour a genuinely respectable shot instead of the microscopic chemistry experiment too many places call a cocktail. It arrived with our chasers in what felt like under a minute. That's confidence. That's hospitality. That's Memphis. The music stayed exactly where good restaurant music belongs--in the background. Cool enough to create atmosphere but never loud enough to hijack conversation. Whoever curates that playlist deserves a raise. I intended to carefully analyze every flavor. Instead, I inhaled the contents of that little cast-iron skillet with the elegance of a starving wolf wearing a necktie. By the time I thought, "I should really study the seasoning..." there was nothing left but an empty cast-iron skillet, one lonely hash brown that had escaped onto the plate like the last survivor of a glorious battle, and absolutely zero regrets. Here's the dangerous thing about Liquor Store: Nothing feels forced. Nothing screams for attention. Nobody acts like they're doing you a favor. The entire experience is so effortlessly dialed in that excellence feels completely ordinary--which is probably the highest compliment I can give a restaurant. We had a long drive ahead of us toward Bristol, and I genuinely didn't want to leave Memphis because it meant leaving this place behind. If I were on death row and the warden slid the final meal request across the table? I'd hand it back with two words. "Liquor Store." Then I'd ask Tyler to bring one more of those gloriously generous well-vodka pours while the kitchen wizard cracked one last sunny-side egg--the kind with crisp, lacey edges and a yolk so perfectly runny it ought to be protected by federal law. Needless to say, we'll be back.
