On the border of Santa Ana and Costa Mesa there is this smoothie bowl place, and it has been a go-to spot right after work for me. Today they had a new flavor, it was the guava and strawberry base, which was soooooooo good. Let me tell you how to make this master piece Step 1: Strawberry Guava + Coco -Lina Step 2: Granola Step 3: Keep it tropical mangos, pineapples, bananas, and blueberries. Step 4: Keep the theme with toasted coconut flakes and hemp seeds. Step 5: IMPORTANT hit it with the sea salt and thank me later. Step 6: Agave Syrup (keep the toppings light and sexy) It is so good!! All the ingredients are intentional and mix well together. Coconut flakes texture and enhance the coconut flavor. Mangos and pineapple add a tang. Banana adds sweetness. Now let me cook. The sea salt and agave balance the flavor future sweetening the fruit to the next level. It gives that re-eatability. (yes I made that word up) read more

Pur Bowls - Acai Bowls Near Me - Santa Ana, California

I wasn't really a fan of acaí bowls but now I'm starting to like them more and more. I was surprised that Pur Bowls had so many different bases to choose from (matcha, mango, acai, coconut, etc.) I decided to make my own bowl instead of choosing a set one. Of course I went with mango & it did not disappoint. It was amazing. They do have chia puddings, but I didn't get any. I added classic granola, banana, strawberry, blueberries and mango. They also have pineapples and apples. Two types of butters, peanut and almond (didn't try). They have different seeds, pink salt, Agave syrup, cacao, matcha and cocoa powder. I didn't add any of that. They do have a chamoy one which looks so yummy & I can't wait to try it. Will update once I do. I really wish they had a location near Arcadia or Pasadena. I would be there every single day lol. Service was good, they're open late & seating available to enjoy your bowl there. There's also Nguyen's Kitchen at the same location. I tried the cucumber lemonade but not the food. Review for that coming soon. read more

We had just come back from a musical at the Segerstrom Center and were feeling peckish, and had initially come here for Nguyen's Kitchen. The acai bowls were calling our name though... GETTING HERE AND PARKING: Easy! WHAT WE ORDERED: Large bowl with pitaya, acai, and coco base. Also got the tumeric cinnamon chia pudding THE FOOD: This was pretty good - exactly what I expected! There was a nice variety of toppings. I wouldn't say it was mindblowing, but it definitely hit the mark and I'd come back again. SERVICE: Pretty good. Free water on tap. VIBES: Bright and there was a good number of people even late at night at 11pm on a weekday. BOTTOM LINE: I definitely wouldn't go out of my way for this place, but if I were in the area this would be a good option. read more

Pur Bowls - Acai Bowls Near Me - Santa Ana, California

OH MY GOSH, this place has one of the best açaí bowls I've ever had. I took my last college final and spontaneously made a trip here to celebrate cause it was a short drive away. The lady who helped us was so kind. I didn't get her name, but what stood out to me is how she offered samples of the bases when I felt torn on what to get (I was feeling very indecisive that day). Parking was not an issue at all as there are plenty of spots in the complex. A heads up that this place is located off a busy street so it's a little challenging getting out. read more

Pur Bowls - build your own açaí bowls - Acai Bowls Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Came by around 11am and had a really good experience. This açaí spot shares a space with another food place, but there were plenty of tables open and the whole area was clean and quiet. The person making our bowls was super kind and patient while we figured out what we wanted. She moved fast and was generous with the toppings. We got the Amazon bowl with cacao nibs and the Very Berry bowl (no banana, no coconut flakes, with mango and peanut butter). Both were delicious, flavorful, and fresh. The fruit was chilled but not too cold, which I appreciated since I have sensitive teeth. Definitely a great spot if you're looking for something refreshing and not overly sweet. read more

We were craving for açai bowl with lots of fruits and came across this location on a Saturday night at 9:30pm. What I love about this place that Nguyen kitchen and Pur bowls are in the same restaurant. Staff were friendly and helped us right away, they still had a great selection of fruits and toppings to choose from at this hour. They have a big seating area and huge parking. Our açai bowl was filled and fruits were still very fresh and tasty at that hour as well. Definitely satisfied our craving. read more

Located inside Nguyen's Kitchen, this is a great spot to try Pur Bowls. You can either build your own bowl or choose one from their menu. They have a variety of bases to choose from, including coco-lina, mango, coconut, and acai. It's a healthy and delicious treat that's definitely worth coming back for! The staff is friendly and helpful, especially when you have a lot of questions about all the different bases and toppings. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, perfect for a casual outing. We devoured it too quickly, no photos were taken. We'll save that for our next trip! read more

The girl was arguing with me about one banana exceeding the max serving size. I get better customer service at Blue Bowls :)

Amazing that there is an açaí bowl spot open for late night! It was the perfect dessert that we were craving on a Friday evening! They offer unlimited toppings, all of which were delicious and fresh quality. Service was wonderful. The açaí was fantastic! My kids ate the bowls so fast, I didn't get to snap a pic. Would visit again! read more

Pur Bowls - Acai+ Pataya bowls - Acai Bowls Near Me - Santa Ana, California

My co-worker picked some açaí bowls from Pur for everyone this morning, total but welcome surprise. They had a buy one, get one free (October '24) so look into that if your headed their way! I got the Superfoods bowl where you can design it yourself. I got split dragonfruit and açaí, with vanilla chia pudding, cocoa granola, dates, bananas, strawberries, pumpkin seeds, etc (haha so many goodies I forget every single one). These are so great! Better than coffee or any pick up snack you can think of. Açaí bowls are perfect for an energy boost, and the bowls from Pur were so delicious and refreshing. Thank you! read more

Service// Quick and super nice and helpful! Came in for the grand opening event and honestly surprised by the interior. There was a beautiful cultural mural on one of the walls inside of this place and this location is situated nearby another Vietnamese fusion place with plenty of parking. Staff was super courteous to fulfill grand opening demands and the bowl was nicely decorated with care when the fruits were placed in. :) read more

There was one girl that was working who was super nice. This is nothing against her. I would give her 5 starts but the business practice would get 0. Unfortunately, me and my partners cars were both towed because we were in a rush to get to a concert. I hadn't seen the signs around the lot saying 2 hours only. (It was dark, and it was a complete oversight on my part) I knew we weren't parking over night which is typical rules of general parking plazas. I do want to note that there were plenty of spaces when I arrived and plenty of spaces when I came back to the parking spot at 11pm. My car was towed at 10:40pm. In total, it will cost us $1134 for both cars. It is 3am and I just can't sleep. I think it would really help if there were more obvious signs lower, saying things like no observatory parking. Typically 2 hour only parking is also labeled on the floors in parking spaces. It was my first time at the observatory, so I was not familiar. I'm sincerely sorry for being so inconsiderate and parking near your business. I didn't think it would disrupt you in anyway. I would like to suggest that Instead of letting the neighboring lot (where I was supposed to park) take $15-$30 per car. You can maybe consider offering parking vouchers for anyone spending over $30 dollars at your business instead. I hope this review helps others. (It was a brutally expensive lesson but there were a few others towed as well, so I feel that this was an easy mistake to make.) In case other patrons are wondering why I'm posting here, the tow company shows who called for my car to be towed. Although I assume this must happen so often, so maybe some changes could be made, instead of punishing potential new and possibly returning customers for an honest mistake. You can imagine, I never want to walk, drive, or go anywhere near these businesses again, along with the other people that were towed. read more

This spot might be tied with Blue Bowl as my favorite açaí place! 4 starts bc the two times I've gone, the portion sizes I got were vastly different. The first time I got a good amount and the fruits were ripe and ready but the second time I felt like the girls really skimped out on me and the fruits were not ripe yet :/. Their bases are really good here tho and yummy, just seems to be inconsistent with portions and quality read more

Always so refreshing and delicious! It's great that it's walking distance from work. So it's an easy tasty fix for lunch

Good healthy place for snacks and all. I liked a few of the yogurts and ice creams. I always like the concept of building my own desserts or dinners. It all taste good, few things here I am not fond of. The service was good, and I'd probably visit again. read more

Ordered 2 bowls online, came in 15 minutes later hoping they would be ready for pickup, the order receipt was still sitting on the printer when I arrived. The worker started working on them when I said I was here to pick up. Half way through 2 peoples orders were made and completed while my açaí sat and melted, waiting to be completed. read more

So goood!! This açaí spot has pre-set bowls or you can build your own - I opted for the latter option. First, they allow free samples, which was super helpful for someone so indecisive (me) and the fact that they had so many options to choose from! The base options includes the basic açaí, matcha, chocolate, and many more. The girl building my bowl was super friendly and patient because I was stressing about how many options there were! After many samples, I settled on the açaí and puralina/coconut base which was a YUMMY combo, and I credit the her for letting my take my time sampling. You can choose unlimited toppings as well, and the workers were just great at their job! Watching them chop the fruit in front of me was also impressive even though it was just chopping fruit. I'm just overall super impressed with the friendly and patient service, and my bowl was 10/10. All the ingredients were super fresh - fruit were all sweet and it was also decently affordable! Great spot :) read more

Pur Bowls - Build your own bowl - Acai Bowls Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Awesome and inexpensive Açaí bowls. I got the island bowl and after letting it sit for 15 minutes it was the perfect consistency.

We were shopping at Ikea and was a little hungry. We saw a soft opening for this place and ran by. My gf loves Acai bowls and this is one of her favorite place to go to. I am so happy it's closer to our location. 10/10 for the acai 10/10 for the matcha 10/10 for the coco 10/10 for everything 10/10 my beautiful gf honestly any flavor here, you can't go bad. I love how much they serve here! It's really worth your price due to the amount they give. Fresh fruits and ALMOND BUTTER GOES HARD AF. Not only that, the customer service is amazing. The worker that helped my gf was super sweet and helpful for which flavors to pick. Lots of seating inside. I love the decoration and the painting. read more

Goddamn, I went to Nguyen's Kitchen for a popcorn chicken for a comfy night. This new counter inside the restaurant (Pur Bowls) caught my eyes. They have such a wide range of flavor bases, FRESH FRUITS cut when I ordered. Their stuffs taste so fresh, looks pretty, only $10. Definitely my favorite spot from now on. Either for comfort food or healthy food. They deliver both! read more

PUR BOWLS STILL CLOSED 11/13/24 If you all and they answer to confirm they are open, they will say yes ( a woman answered the phone and I did say that yelp says they have been closed for months, she didn't volunteer the information that this is a split business, half açaí bowls and half Nguyen's Kitchen). When you show up, the acia is completely empty. No ingredients. When someone calls to make sure your open and she help says you have been closed for months, please care about others and give them the info. I know you want a better job, but when you always work hard it shows and you better yourself. read more

Pur Bowls - ACAI Bowls - Acai Bowls Near Me - Santa Ana, California

I am a Nguyen's Kitchen fiend and was surprised when I saw they were under construction to put in Pur Bowls. I've never had an açaí bowl like this before. I've had Jujubar in CM, but this is way different. I love how you can put anything and everything on your bowl and it doesn't change the price. They also have pre-crafted options if you're not ready for that much freedom. Good stuff read more

This was the best açaí bowl I have ever had. It was fresh and tasted amazing. Highly recommend!

Kinda disappointed in this. It had zero flavor. Was trying so hard to taste the acai but literally didn't taste anything. I could just taste the granola. Also I asked for chia seeds and the girl sprinkled it on and I had like 5 seeds. Wouldn't recommend read more
