Delicious and very friendly staff. I go whenever I'm in town rain or shine.

This is one of my favorite places. Anytime I’m in the area I stop by. I am not one to leave terrible reviews but I had the worst experience. I ordered a regular bowl and received a child’s bowl. When I mentioned the mix up, they took it back. No one apologized but I thought no big deal. Mistakes happen. Not a minute later they handed it back to me. They did not add any açaí. They didn’t remake the order. They just threw it in a bigger bowl and added bananas. When I asked to speak the manager, the manager came over and aggressively grabbed the bowl from me and threw it away. They remade it for me but it was done incorrectly as they didn’t pull up my order and just attempted to make it from memory. It tasted terrible. I understand mistakes happen but there’s zero reason to be aggressive or rude.

Great post workout treat. Tastes too good to be healthy! The acai base comes with a number of options to mix in, like passion fruit, banana, peanut butter, etc. There are then a number of set bowls to choose from with a variety of topping options, and other ways to customize your bowl. The pao de quiexo is also good, if you get there before they're all gone.

Amazing! I've never had this style of meal before. The acai is a frozen blended base and you pick which fruits and flavors are added to it. Filling and refreshing! I had the original. The medium size filled me up plenty. This was a delicious and healthy energy boost that helped jumpstart my day! I highly recommend Samba Rock!

You get what you pay for. Compared to other acai bowl places it's comparable and the quality and service so much better! I live in San Francisco, but stop by there every chance I'm in the area!
