Crema's Take
“This Jersey City gem goes beyond basic smoothie shop territory with meticulously crafted açaí bowls that use genuinely fresh ingredients and creative flavor combinations like their beloved Nutty bowl with peanut butter powder and honey. The friendly staff keeps things moving smoothly whether you're grabbing a quick order or settling in for a leisurely sit, and the consistently stellar reviews suggest they've mastered both their signature bowls and the cozy vibe that makes people want to come back.”

I haven’t been to the store but I just ordered through door dash and might I say it’s perfect. Great avocado toast and amazing pitaya bowl
Some of the best açaí bowls I’ve had. Fresh ingredients, friendly staff, prompt service, and everything was delicious! 5 stars, would highly recommend and would definitely come back!
I always wondered what Acai bowls are and that curiosity led me to this place! Went in for their Nutty bowl, and must say.... Satisfaction is an underrated word here! They have nicely blended the acai puree and topped it with banana, strawberry, granola and Nutella. Initially thought it would be too sweet but it wasn't. I thoroughly enjoyed the bowl and it was an amazing experience. The outlet though is small but they have maintained a good ambience and the staff is friendly. Service too was pretty quick as they were catering to a lot of people when I entered and quickly the patrons were served their orders. The cost is reasonable for the product they offer, looking forward to trying more of their dishes including shakes and juices along with acai bowl.
I tried the acai "Nutty" bowl with peanut butter powder, topped with honey. It's absolutely delicious. You should, however, mix everything before digging in. Otherwise, the powder remains segregated from the pudding at the bottom. Service is quick and excellent.
This place is incredible! I’m a huge fan of açaí bowls and Cali Shakes does them perfectly. I got the original and it was delicious, with tons of Strawberries, bananas and coconut flakes. Inside is decorated nicely and the staff is great! I’m excited to keep trying more from their menu.
