    One of the best acai bowls I've ever had. A must-have while you're in Santa Barbara.

    Diego's Power Bowl is bomb! Acaì with banana, hemp seeds, granola + optional honey. I used to come here like crazy when I lived in SB!

    Popeye in para para Paradise! It's the Popeye with a "tropical" twist. ;) Still has all the greens with the ginger and lime, but it's made with pineapple juice and coconut milk instead of apple juice.

    If you have an iPhone, get the Backyard Bowls app instead of calling in! It's faster and you already pay for your bowl. All you have to do is come in and pick it up!

    Amazingly good acai bowls covered in strawberries and bananas! The large is massive, small is more than enough

    U can make many of the things they make here for half the price! Need to find açai berries. Costcos the answer 10$ worth of food that could make 3-4 servings of the same thing but much better quality!

    Cool place. But they don't make new pots of coffee after 11.30. Bad news if you need caffeine with your bowl

    Wanna feel fast? Have some kombucha. Feeling furious? Calm down with some acai. Feeling fast AND furious? You might just be movie star Paul Walker, who noms his bee pollen here.
