Yellow spoons turn an orange color when in contact with the cold ice cream. Such a fun surprise and experience for those young at heart (children and adults). My family stopped by after walking along the San Clemente pier. Got a scoop of huckleberry ice cream and it had a nice creamy, flavorful texture and taste. Their scoops are a generous size too! You can enjoy it outside in their limited patio seating, while looking out at the San Clemente pier. Perfect spot to watch the sunset. Located next to a coffeeshop and pizza venue, so you can have a full meal too.

Amazing salads! My husband and I stopped in for a bite last week and discovered that Pacific Pearl…read morehas big, super fresh, and inspired salads. I had the Ecology Center Chpp Salad and LOVED it! It's hard to find fresh, great-tasting salads, and this one was awesome! And not too expensive! My husband had the Newporter wrap, a vegan wrap loaded with grilled mushrooms and other veggies. He loved this too! In fact, we loved our items so much we went back again today. This time I got the Yosemite salad, which was also fresh and good. My preference is the Ecology salad, however. My hubby got the Newporter again. The vibe is also lovely with what I'm going to call a "Northern California Redwood Cabin Retreat" style. It just reminded me of vacations in Lake Tahoe I went on as a kiddo or a cafe you'd find near Muir Woods. Right now they don't have a bathroom, but we were informed that they will be moving to a new location a few doors down with a bathroom soon. We can't wait! We have yet to sample their delicious looking goodies like the Pecan White Chocolate Cookies.

Our first experience, not very good. We placed a to go order on Sunday morning. We were told 15…read moremins. to pick up. No ture more like 30 mins. I was there on time. As I stood at the counter I watched as my ticket was pushed aside for eat in customers. Customers that came in after me and were now getting served. I ordered 2 burritos, a chicken bowl and a carrot cake. What I got was a chicken bowl with white rice. The menu said BROWN. We received a brown bag with a handwritten note " Sorry we are out of carrot cake so here is Pumpkin cake or roll". I was staning there for 30 mins. WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST ASK ME. I don't like pumpkin. So I called Sunday and no manager there. I was asked leave a message and told I would get a call back which I did. Sunday and Monday no one called back. Tues I called again no manager. Left another message, and now its Tuesday night no one bothered to call me back. I don't like paying for food I can't eat. Pumpkin and white rice. Not the best customer service!!!!

There is seating inside but there is some outdoor seating. I sat down on the bench directly outside the ice cream shop. The service was fast and friendly. They were very busy. You can get a cup or cone. I asked for butter pecan and they didn't carry it. That's okay. Just know that they don't have all traditional flavors but there is a variety to choose from. Good ice cream! I'll be back!

Acai bowl was perfect for a hot summer day and the price is perfect for the portion. The bowl was…read morereally big and it was only $12. It was loaded with fruit, I ordered the Moonlight Acai Bowl. The acai was a little icey but wasn't too sweet. The ratio of acai compared to fruit was off, the bowl was like split in half of acai base and the other of fruit. I don't think the manager or owner evened it out well. Doesn't matter because it still tasted good! The granola was crunchy and sweet. After a long day in Laguna Beach, it was the perfect treat. They also have one in Laguna Beach too we just made our way to Dana Point for another obligation. Inside, they have seating and a big menu to choose from. They also have a bathroom and water station. Parking was easy too as you can park in their lot or street!

Alohana was close by, so we drove up the road and were there within 5 minutes. There's a few parking spots out front and we were able to get one at 2:50 pm on a Saturday. Inside it's cute, clean and there's seating, but they also have a few tables and chairs outside so we ate out there. I went with the Campground which has both Pitaya and Acai base, some granola and berries and banana slices. They were busy at the time making orders and we didn't wait too long for ours to come out. I will say, the bases were a little frost bitten or more icy when I got it, but it did melt down a bit more once I started eating it and then everything started to blend and it tasted good. I'm a huge fan of Blue Bowl and feel like nothing compares to theirs, but Alohana is on par with that. It's good if you want to take it to go and let it melt down a little to have that smooth consistency instead of fighitng with it and getting chunks at a time of the base. Definitely would recommend coming here after a long day at the beach or picking one up before heading to the beach to enjoy there. They also sell coffee and other random, but very cool, tchotchkes, clothes, art, that you wouldn't find at any other Acai bowl shop and it's very Dana Point. Great place to pick-up a unique souvenir if you're visiting from out of town.

It's on the pricier side, but the food is unique and unlike what you'll find at most restaurants nearby. The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere, with a small outdoor seating area and plenty of indoor seating. The only downside is that parking can be a bit challenging to find in the immediate area.
