Paradise Bowls

This place is honestly my favorite acai bowl place, and every time I think I've found somewhere new that might come close, I realize what a mistake I've made and keep coming back here. The quality has been consistent and the taste this delicious for YEARS. My favorite bowl is their cocoa arc, which is so perfectly balanced with the chocolate almond milk and different fruits. The acai bowls here are never too watery or too topping-y, they're wonderfully balanced AND have a great amount of granola on top and bottom, ensuring a satisfying crunch throughout. The workers here are always so friendly and they do a great job of ensuring the environment is welcoming. Bowls are always made quite quickly too!

Usually dont post comments but this place has consistently underperformed. Service is ran by young people that have improper training or just lack of service. No communication when the bowls are made and left on counter and no assistance in bagging the bowls up. The bowls are messy and not made with care.Not coming back.

This place is hit or miss. Sometimes they are missing many of the ingredients so options are limited. Other times they are fully stocked. When they are fully stocked, the bowls are good. Service can also be great or annoyingly disappointing. Parking can be a challenge. There is limited seating inside, but I usually get it to go as it is often loud with the blenders going. Try it out, but be patient and prepared to be flexible.

I usually love paradise bowls, but this experience was horrible. They forgot to remove the plastic wrapper of the acai packet before blending and there were bits of plastic of all sizes in my acai bowl. Not sure if I noticed before consuming any but this is absolutely unacceptable. On top of that, there is no way to contact their management service/branch by email. The only was is through instagram and facebook which is absolutely ridiculous.

Paradise bowls has been my go-to acai bowl place since high school! The acai mixture is thick and substantial which is something I always look for in acai because I don't love when acai bowls are runny. Paradise's ingredients are fresh and their granola is delicious. Sometimes the orders do get slightly backed up so I usually call ahead or use their online platform to order, and my bowl is always ready when I get there. Perfect place to go for the summer if you're looking for a light lunch or refreshing snack! They have indoor and outdoor seating and the indoor vibe is nice and decorated with surf decorations. However I do prefer sitting in the outside chairs and tables just because the blenders get a bit loud. My go to is usually the gaucho but peach bum is what I go for when I'm looking for something more refreshing!

Went there today (Monday) around 2pm and the minute I walk in one of the male workers is sitting on the kitchen counter where they prep the bowls. Talk about infection control issue. Anyway I order a bowl which was good but overall the cleanliness was pretty bad. He had gloves on and he's touching his undershirt and then touching the food item and using the blender. I would skip it next time. Staff need to show better hygiene and infection control.

We came by for a quick lunch. We ordered a small Gaucho and a medium Chocolate Arc. They were decent, nothing special. Not much interaction with the staff except when we placed our order. There is one table and a few window seats available for dining in.

It tastes like paradise! We've been coming to Paradise Bowls for the past couple of years, and although we have tried many other acai bowl spots in OC, paradise is set apart. They consistently have fresh fruit, delicious acai and pitaya bases, and amazing combinations of flavors. Our favorite is the Chocolate Arc. It has the perfect amount of peanut butter, strawberries, and honey with cacao nibs on top! My husband orders the Peanut Butter Delight smoothie (switches out the regular almond milk for chocolate almond milk) for a smoothie version of the Chocolate Arc! The place is always clean and staff are friendly. If you're looking for some classic Acai smoothie bowls with the best ingredients, Paradise Bowls is it!

The bowls here were yummy! Very fresh and healthy ingredients. We ordered the gaucho and guava sunrise acai bowls. Loved that the blueberries were big and plump and that they added kiwi to the guava sunrise bowl. I just wish they would add more ingredients to the top of the fruit- I know you can add toppings for an additional price but I'd be nice if the bowls included a little more on their own.

Not really natural. Peanut butter is like Jiffy. Full of sugar. Bowls are filled with granola, top and bottom. Fruit on top was good.
