    A thousand stars out of five. I will be talking about their bowls for years. We tried their traditional acai bowl. It was so scrumptious, sweet and tart and crunchy, just melts in your mouth delicious. I had never really had an acai bowl before, but it was on my list to try and I knew this was the place to start. All of the ingredients were so fresh. One child had an I Lava You bowl, and really like the crunch from the cacao nibs. We also had the Monkey Bowl, and it was life changing. I am a huge chocolate peanut butter fan and it hit all of the spots! I cannot even describe how good it was but I will crave it for the rest of my life. It was so smooth and creamy and delicious, we will never be able to find one this good at home, I just know it. This was a popular location, which is a good sign and something we look for on a vacation. There is some seating outside and also a lot of people just walk around with their bowls. This one was just a few steps from our hotel. One child even bought an adorable tank top. I really hope I can come back again soon.

    Super flavorful bowl! I got the tropical bowl and it was delicious! Staff was super nice and bowl was ready within 5 minutes. The fruit tasted fresh! Only think I wish I would asked for more was the granola because I'm a granola fannnn!

    Okay, okay-- now that I realized there isn't just ONE Sunrise Shack on the Northshore, I started to see them pop-up all over the place. Silly me. Anyway, as I said in my Kailua Sunrise Shack review, this was my favorite acai bowl on Oahu, and Kauai. Came back, a 2nd time, and even bought a hat! I'm not a souvenir guy, but this trip I made sure to get a few items from the places I loved most.

    Açaí bowl with Mac nut butter (3$ up charge, pretty steep!)...

    The smoothie bowls are great, vibes are good and we didn't eat at the location because at the time there was a homeless person sitting face down on the table. I know that's not totally in their control but there's lots of places to eat beyond the seating they provide, such as the beach. Just eat it quick! My I lava you bowl was really runny. Service is fast I'm taking a star away because it's expensive. A 3$ up charge on macadamia nut butter when you get maybe a tablespoon worth and it's locally grown on the island (despite everything else) is pretty crazy. It's about 30$ for two bowls. It's vacation though on the Waikiki strip! So expect those prices. Good smoothie bowls.

    A tasty acai bowl however a bit pricey for very little fruit toppings. Also the base is blended with bananas and dates only so it has a pretty strong banana flavor, more like an acai smoothie base than other acai bowls.

    such a cute hawaiian smoothie joint, love the decor and service. the smoothie combinations all look and sound delicious. 10/10 recommend

    One of my favorite places for smoothies and açaí bowls. Gets crowded, but service is pretty fast.

    Local fave - with extra pitaya sauce

    Second time coming: and both times they greeted me so warmly. I love that! And the smoothies are yummy! Thanks guys

    Açaí bowl small

    I absolutely love the smoothies and açaí bowls here. Expensive? Yes. But it's in the beach in Waikiki so what were you expecting? Pro tip: do not leave food unattended or on the edge of the table or the birds WILL come for it.

    So happy to see this spot on this end of Waikiki. To note: I did not eat an acai bowl, I went straight smoothie 2 days in a row. And it was good? I wouldn't say the most robust smoothie for the price, but I appreciate healthy options when I can get it. I did add a few of the add-on's like protein, which added to the price, making my smoothie close to $16/$17+ which is steep for a smoothie that isn't the biggest. Overall, great option for a quick and healthy start to the day/mid-day meal. It's pricey, but what isn't in Waikiki!?

    Lynn L.

    The açaí bowl with blueberry and strawberry topping add ons was about $19 which I think is crazy expensive for mid açaí bowl. I probably wouldn't pay that much again for an acai bowl. Customer service wasn't very welcoming nor very friendly.

    Lava and Monkey bowls
    Michele T.

    The Monkey bowl is our fave. Nice way to start our day after our morning walk. This time we also tried the I Lava You bowl - another good one.

    Tropical Smoothie
    Kimberly N.

    Sunrise Shack became my favorite go-to smoothie in Hawaii! This location was near my hotel, so I got to try a few things. -The Tropical Smoothie was my favorite! It is not only very pretty but it tastes fresh and delicious! -Blue Dream Smoothie was not too sweet, but the flavor was good. I still liked the tropical one best. -Monkey Bowl has a good amount of peanut butter. The bowl is delicious and flavorful. I thought it had a lot of different fruits. Overall I loved the smoothies and drinks here. They are not as sweet and more on the healthier side which I loved!

    Nalu Health Bar & Café is such a solid spot, especially if you're looking for something fresh,…read morequick, and actually satisfying. Parking is super easy with the complimentary structure, and the café is located on the bottom floor alongside other vendors. One thing I immediately appreciated was how well air-conditioned the entire market is--it's nice and cool, which makes sitting and eating there really comfortable. The cashier recommended the turkey pesto croissant, but suggested swapping it onto ciabatta since it's one of her favorites--and I'm so glad I trusted her. It was phenomenal. The flavors were balanced, the bread held everything together perfectly, and it felt like a step above your typical sandwich. I also had what looked like a simple salad, but the vinaigrette and candied pistachios really elevated it and made it feel more thoughtful than expected. The staff across the board were friendly and welcoming, and there's plenty of seating--whether inside the café or out in the open market area. Honestly, the value surprised me the most. I paid under $13 for everything, which is hard to beat for the quality. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

The staff is very friendly and ready to help with your order. I love the vibes from this place, vibrant colors and very much sun-kissed energy.

    Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.

There were a few small tables inside and a bunch outside... but it's too warm for me on an August afternoon to go outside, and inside was packed... so, I took my Avocado Toast and Coconut Lime Cooler to my car. Haha! Service was friendly and efficient! After I ordered the Avocado Toast, she asked if I wanted a drink. I should have taken her hint. I went back in line for the Coconut Lime Cooler. LOL! The avocado toast was great! I could taste a touch of garlic and a bit tartness from balsamic vinegar? The Coconut Lime Cooler was interesting. It was like a soda without sugar. It was carbonated water with coconut cream on the top and some lime syrup? It wasn't sweet like a soda pop... which is a good thing! Originally, I wanted to get the Açai Sorbetto bowl, but I caught the fragrance of toast... and got the Avocado Toast. So - I should return for the Sorbetto bowl... and a plain croissant... because the customer in front of me ordered the croissant... and it sounded and smelled good!
