Very pleasantly surprised by this find! I wasn’t sure based on mixed reviews but my husband picked up takeout for us and it was delicious. We both got poke bowls and everything was very fresh and delicious. Serving size was perfect and we both enjoyed our meals. My only complaint is that you can’t build you own bowl, you can only select from their premade choices.

Favorite açaí place in Gainesville!! The açaí base is one of the best I have had, and their granola is delicious. Also would recommend their poké bowls. Staff is always friendly and helpful.

What a wonderful place. So many yummy flavors and such friendly, helpful staff. Ordered a smoothie bowl, good price, delicious and ready in minutes!

I have always wanted to try this place. The store is really cool with lots of island themed stuff and food. We enjoyed the poke bowl with tuna and fresh veggies. Also chicken bowl and a fruit bowl loaded with fresh fruit and honey. It was a beautiful day outside so we sat outdoors and enjoyed the wonderful food. The staff are young but very friendly and kind. You can also get any number of different smoothies and drinks. The menu is very well put together. Enjoy. 😊

Had a food truck event at our college and decided to try their poke bowl. Was very disappointed in serving size considering the 17$ price tag with tip (felt forced to tip when using card as the girl is blatantly staring at you while you process payment). The rice isn’t even sushi rice it was basmati, it was served hot with cold tuna chunks which inevitably made the sushi itself warm (not a pleasant experience). The tuna itself was very tough to eat, and I love sushi. Very poor quality as there was quite a few pieces with inedible silver skin. Was very disappointed in the food truck, maybe store itself is better quality but would not get again.
