After a workout at the UTC, I searched for a spot where I could get a good protein smoothie or…read moreshake. Superberry Açái caught my eye as it was one of the vendor stands in the middle of the courtyards. This spot didn't look like it was getting much business since the lady inside was just on her phone. I felt bad so I decided to ask her for a protein smoothie that they offer. It was pretty pricey.. at about $15 total for the drink I got. However, it contained 28g of protein and was full of delicious and fresh ingredients. She made my drink to my customized liking and it tasted super good. The acai bowls here look tasty as well and are customizable with any toppings such as fresh fruits, nuts, butter seeds, cacao nibs, granola and coconut. Maybe next time as I was pretty satisfied with the smoothie I got!!! Perfect and convenient if you're at the mall already. They have outdoor dining tables and chairs you can sit at.

My husband has been raving about Blue Bowl for a while, and I finally got to try it today --…read moreunreal! We waited about 30 minutes (Sunday afternoon rush), but it gave me plenty of time to explore the menu. I usually stick to a simple order, but with so many base options, I decided to "do it all," and I'm so glad I did. My son loved the pitaya and mango bases (and so did I). The blue coconut and classic açaí were excellent, and the blue chia topping was a fun and tasty surprise. All the fruit was extra fresh, and the granola added the perfect crunch. We absolutely loved everything and will definitely be back soon!

BLUE BOWL @ UCSD LA JOLLA…read more Parking is available, but I believe you have to pay if you park in the garage. I decided to just park along Gilman Drive, which is free, and walked about 20 minutes. Honestly, it wasn't bad at all -- it was a sunny day and there's plenty of street parking if you're willing to walk a bit. I've always loved Blue Bowl Superfoods in Oceanside. It's SO good and easily one of my favorite açaí spots, I could literally eat it every single day. I love all the customizations they offer, the variety of bases, and just how many ingredients they have. This time, I decided to visit their UCSD location, which is right in the middle of University of California San Diego's campus. They open around 10 AM on Saturdays (and typically around 8 AM on weekdays), and even right at opening there were already a lot of people waiting. My friend and I were still able to get in and out pretty quickly around 10. I ended up getting their mango passion base along with açaí. For toppings, I loaded it up strawberries, bananas, apples, blackberries, blueberries they truly have so many options. I also love their variety of nuts, seeds, and different types of nut butters. They really don't skimp on choices. Overall, I would highly recommend stopping by. I was SO full after, and honestly, you could even split a bowl with a friend because they pack it generously. It's about $12 for a normal medium-sized bowl, which I think is worth it for the portion and quality. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, which I really appreciated. The ambiance is nice it's more of a grab-your-bowl and then sit outside type of vibe, but there is indoor seating as well. Definitely one of my favorite açaí spots, and this location did not disappoint.

The place is overall clean and everyone was kind and welcoming. Right next to an orange theory and in a plaza called town plaza with cvs and lots of parking. We tried the avocado toast it was good came with lots of sunflower seeds, chia seeds, tomato and feta cheese-$8.50. I got the superfood acai bowls-also very good with lots of berries and fruit-$17 Breakfast power wrap-no meat I didn't realize, it had eggs, potatoes, pickled onions, sun dried tomatoes, avocado- it was good as well-$17? I think. Just everything kinda pricey lol but it's San Diego and it is fresh.

You can hear the waves from the ocean over the sound of the espresso machine as though you were feet from the beach. Nestled between a Scripps/UCSD Oceanography campus, it's a small/quaint private getaway. Since the word is getting out it's been quite busy and it totally killed my zen to see people doing zoom conferences and speaking loudly at their screens throughout. Really? Oh well, to each their own. The lavender latte was delicious and hit the spot. The sourdough they used for the toast was heavenly...filled with air holes and homemade sourdough flavor. Loved the heart shaped toast. They take care with their presentation. Only drawback is lack of parking. Unless there is some secret spot I haven't discovered yet, be prepared for a bit of a hike. I've been here on the weekend as well and the lines can get long.

It's an open air setting featuring an open patio with a good amount of seating- lots of students and WFH folks. It was so gorgeous. A tiny place tucked away enough that could make being productive feel like paradise. The coffee on the other hand, was just alright. We got a classic Iced Vanilla Latte and it was fine. It was pretty sweet, so take with that what you will. Some notes: Parking is difficult to find here. Try residential or the surrounding hills. You get 20% off if you're a UCSD student or staff.

It was filling and tasted healthy. There were large sides of yams and broccolini. For dessert, I got the Majestic (dense carrot cake with thick and creamy lemon cashew vanilla frosting). I liked the frosting quite a bit -- a little sweet, but not too sweet. The cake part was too dense for me; the texture was almost like that of a blondie (1 star off). For my drink, I got the Love smoothie (almond milk, coconut water, banana, kale, almond butter, date, and spirulina). It was hydrating and filling. I could even have it as a breakfast meal. The cafe is on the penthouse floor, at the top of the building. People are doing yoga outside of the cafe. What a great place to do yoga and get something healthy to eat and drink!

You can order on the app or in person, but cashless. There's also a nice terrace to eat outside. And since it's beautiful San Diego we did. We grabbed cookie samples which were huge. And if you buy the cookie it's the size of your hand! And my son, who is the cookie expert, proclaimed it the best cookies he's had in a while. Great on-campus opton!

Although not open 24/7 anymore, this place has one of the highest portion sized meals at UC San Diego. Although I do not crave pizza often, whenever I do, I am sure to come here and not any other dining hall. The service, like most other areas around UCSD is pretty good. You are expected to find your own seats and you order your food either on the app or in-person. The ambiance is nice and the view can be pretty nice as well. The area is clean and there is a lot of seating both outside and inside. Compared to the other dining halls, a lot would say OVT is on the higher end.

I was looking…read morethrough their menu recently and found myself craving an acai bowl on a sunny day, so I decided it was time to come back. One thing I absolutely LOVE about this place is the whole garden café concept. They have two separate counters, one right in front of the parking lot for food orders and another tucked inside the garden for coffee, pastries, and bowls. The Green Power Bowl sounded tempting, but I ended up going with the Pitaya bowl, and it was absolutely DELICIOUS. After the first bite, I could immediately tell the fruits were fresh and no syrups were used and the fruit didn't have that frozen texture that some places use. Everything tasted fresh and high quality. For $12.50, I also thought the portion was surprisingly generous, especially considering the fresh ingredients. The couple taking orders and serving customers were incredibly friendly to me and others, and the whole place had that welcoming, local neighborhood feel that's becoming harder to find these days. I found the garden beautiful, with plenty of outdoor seating whether you want to sit in the sun or find a shady spot to relax. I'm already looking forward to coming back.
