da Cove Health Bar and Cafe

I've been coming here for years for the fresh smoothies and acai bowls, and it never disappoints! The prices have increased over the years, but it's worth it to treat myself once in a while since I don't live nearby. The downside is that the parking lot is small, and it can get crowded since it is a popular spot for both locals and tourists. My favorite is the Hawaiian bowl since it has ALL the best toppings including a scoop of pa'i'ai (thick poi). Yum!!

I’ve been coming to Da Cove Health Bar ever since they first opened and always told people it was one of my favorite spots. Unfortunately, today’s visit was a huge disappointment. I ordered a lava bowl and a mana bowl to go. The menu said the mana bowl was large and the lava bowl was small, but both came in the same 16 oz containers. My mana bowl was supposed to have açaí, granola, honey, banana, blueberry, strawberry, and bee pollen, but there was no honey or bee pollen at all. The açaí itself was watery and icy, almost like too much plant-based milk and ice were blended in. It had a crunchy texture instead of the thick, creamy consistency I’m used to. I paid $28 for both bowls, which would’ve been fine if the quality matched what I used to get here. Really hoping this was just an off

I've tried many acai bowls near waikiki beach but this one is so far the best. Other places use syrups instead of real honey but they use real honey for the acai bowls here.

Mana bowl - pretty damn good. What is that honey?! Soooo good. I would have preferred pineapple over banana, but with the honey, it all tasted so good! Sure, açai bowls are getting expensive, but I would go back again. I was lucky when I came at 2:30ish. People started pouring in after me. I’m definitely going back. So good!

I want to come back to Hawaii just to eat the acai bowl here again. I ordered the Hawaiian acai bowl, and it was the best acai I’ve ever had. Every combination was perfect.
