Their açaí bowls are some of the best I've had in the Bay Area. You can tell they take pride in using authentic Brazilian açaí, and I love how customizable everything is. The fruit is always fresh, the toppings are generous, and the bowls strike that perfect balance of feeling indulgent while still being packed with wholesome ingredients.

The staff are always pretty nice and they move quick when making bowls so I never wait more than 5-10 minutes. I've tried Warrior Blend Bowl and the Harvest Blend Bowl. The Warrior Bowl is the best I've had so far. I think the granola used for it is the best and mixes well with the other items in the bowl. The harvest blend bowl left a bit more to be desired. I ordered a small the last time and I'm not sure if the coconut layer was left out or it's just blended in the bowl because it felt like it was missing something. Overall, I love coming here vs some of the closer spots. I'll have to give the harvest blend bowl another shot to see if it was just that one day when I came in.

Super friendly and fast service. Great menu. Hearty plates. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Kid friendly. TV's and separate bar. Are you dreaming? My kid and I shared the Hawaiian pork plate with sticky rice and flavorful mac salad. Spouse had their delicious and near perfect burger. We share the thick and crispy fries. We couldn't have imagined such a stellar lunch with family friendly vibes. If you find yourself dreading all the tourist spots, just walk 25 feet here! I hope this review doesn't blow up this place!

After over two decades on the coast, I finally tested the cashier's cocky claim that they have the…read morebest chowder around. He wasn't lying. It's creamy, loaded with clams, and has a great jalapeno kick. And, I fully intend to go back for it. On a follow-up visit, the fish tacos (fresh, flaky cod) were a win (although a bit of guacamole would have made them really shine), but unfortunately, the Crab and Shrimp Louie lacked the same personality (it was bland and underwhelming). If you've been avoiding this place because, like me, you aren't a fan of the bar next door, you're missing out. Try the clam chowder-it's not cocky to claim you have the best chowder in town when you actually do!

Amazing breakfast/brunch food and coffee located in picturesque Pacifica…read more My friend and I went for brunch and I was impressed. I got the Beach Breakfast with a side of bacon while my friend got the avocado and bacon toast. The portion sizes were great! The pancakes were soooo fluffy and warm, delicious! The scrambled eggs had a good texture and the sausage was fantastic- they had a sweet marinade and smokey finish which complimented everything else. The bacon was the perfect chewy:crisp ratio. The avocado and bacon toast was massive and my friends really enjoyed it. The service was quick, especially given how big it is. We sat outside, which included an expansive amount of seating. It was nice walking alongside the beach after- amazing vibes!

Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience at Sweet Citrus in Burlingame. My order was…read moremade incorrectly, and when I politely explained that I had received the wrong drink, I was told I would have to pay for a replacement instead of having the mistake corrected. I want to be clear that this is not a reflection of the staff. They were polite and were simply following the rules set by management. My disappointment is with the policy itself. I'm currently pregnant, and because of my nausea, there are only a few specific drinks I can tolerate. This particular drink has been one of the few things that actually helps, so receiving the wrong order wasn't just a minor inconvenience. I simply wanted the drink I had ordered and paid for. After posting my review, I received a response saying that if I had mentioned my pregnancy and that I couldn't tolerate another drink, they would have replaced it. While I appreciate the response, I don't believe customers should have to explain personal circumstances to have an incorrect order corrected. Whether someone is pregnant, has dietary restrictions, allergies, or no special circumstances at all, if a business makes a mistake and prepares the wrong order, it should simply be replaced. I've been to many other drink shops, and even when a customer simply doesn't like a drink, they're often happy to remake it. In this case, the mistake wasn't mine, yet I was expected to pay again. That level of customer service was surprising and very disappointing. I hope management reconsiders this policy, because every customer deserves to receive the correct order without having to justify why it matters.

I'm pretty sure I came here 3 days in a row. This shop seems pretty new, but if I was to make any suggestions I would recommend getting a soft-serve machine for dispensing to keep the acai texture smoother. The ice cream tubs seem to encourage the formation of larger ice crystals which can make the center a bit crunchy.

We haven't had Açaí bowls in a long time and this was the perfect way to reintroduce our "addiction". You start out by choosing your first base, it is filled up half way and then you can put your first layer of toppings. From there you add in your second layer of açaí and top it off with more toppings. I didn't think that a soursop base would make that much of a difference, but now it is my new favorite. The açaí was delicious and I'll have to come back again to try some of the other combinations.
