Blue Hawai'i Açai Cafe

Wquality and presentation focused which is exactly what I want from something this fresh and healthy. Perfect morning meal and convenient location. Highly recommend. Very willing to customize to support customer requests within reason which is a great touch.

We got two small classic bowls for an afternoon snack. The açaí was really good. It is mixed pretty well, so it's not a deep purple. It was topped with strawberries, bananas, blueberries, granola, and honey. The fruit was all good and tasted fresh. After finishing the small bowls, Robert and I both thought we should have gotten mediums or large. The small was not big enough for a snack.

I've never had Açaí bowls any place else, but I can say these are great and can fill you up while leaving you feeling a little extra healthy.

Nice little place, the service was friendly. I ordered a classic Açai bowl and a smoothie.

Fun atmosphere and the acai bowl is the best I've ever had anywhere

Best acai bowl in the city by far! Always get the lime fresh bowl with peanut butter for lunch and never disappoints.

Great place to pick up a quick açaí bowl or smoothie. They also have poke bowls. Service is quick, so even when the line is long you don't usually have to wait long. There is a small amount of indoor seating. The decor is Hawaiian and surf themed. The staff are very courteous and friendly. Prices are a little bit high, but not out of the ordinary for San Francisco, and there don't seem to be tip jars or a way to specify a tip on credit card transactions, so I assume this is factored in to the prices.

If you're a lover of Acai bowls, you'll love this place. Their ingredients are fresh and delicious, they also have a loyalty/rewards program. I try to go either early in the AM or after lunch for a snack. Prices are a tad more than I'd like to pay, but I feel they're no different than similar places.

First time there today. I ordered an extra Poke bowl to go. Tuna and other toppings are very fresh with reasonable price. They also put a little bit of kimchee in there. People are very nice and friendly. But the whole bowl was too salty.

My favorite poke bowls in the city. The only issue is how expensive they are. Years ago the largest one rounded out to maybe $14. Came in today for the first time in years and now it's $20. I get it, it's the price of business in today's world. Everything else went up in price, but that's too pricey for a lunch. I used to work downtown and would go here once a week or so, I think it's too much money for that now. But for the occasional lunch treat I still love this place. Anyway, still delicious. Like I said, I think they have the best poke bowls in the city hands down.

For something light, but delicious, I chose to go here for the poke bowl. It's located in Embarcadero Two and a bit hard to find the first time around. I chose to order my poke bowl without the kimchi and ginger since I'm not really into that. It's about $8.95 for a regular bowl, I believe. You get a choice of garlic or spicy sauce, or a mix of both. I chose the mix and it was tasty. I also got the lava flow smoothie, which is $7.95. It was really good. I REALLY enjoyed it. It was a mix of coconut with berry, but as delicious as it was, the price definitely was up there for a smoothie. I'll just have to get this on specials days I decide to treat myself to a yummy smoothie. I got my entire order probably in about 5-7 minutes. My bowl was ready pretty fast and it was just the smoothie I had to wait on. So service was quick and i appreciate that!

Got 2 açai bowls, they were tasty and cute; the service was quick and the café as well, but it is located in a place that’s not very interesting on its own, it’s just very close to a mall and walking for ~10 min you get to the ferry building and that’s nice, so it’s either way close to some interesting locations. We payed pretty much money, $30+ for two açaís and a water, I think that’s a little too much but ok. Thank youu byee

Decent açaí shop, the poke bowls looked good. Located in a shopping center, very loud street in front, but lots of tables outside and on the second story of the building, also a park close by to eat in. Açaí bowl had a generous amount of fruit and was multi layered as not requiring stirring, staff was friendly and gave prompt service. Would recommend.

I so wanted to like this place since it’s the only açaí bowl shop in downtown but sadly it misses the mark. The açaí blend itself is good but the gluten free granola is a terrible pairing - the flavors and texture don’t blend at all with the açaí flavors (felt like I was eating Fritos and sunflower seeds). Definitely not worth the price they charge. I got the lime bowl and can’t taste the lime which is a bummer (and the lime is an extra dollar). The staff were nice but seemed uninterested. The unfortunate part is that the place smelled like compost/garbage. I would have like to eat at the shop but couldn’t handle the smell. Perhaps it was just the time of day. I might give it another try but for the cost and quality it’s not worth it.

Not a good place for Acai bowls. What an overpriced disgrace. The “gluten free granola” is just corn flakes with some seeds. The acai tasted too sweet and like a smoothie. We paid $17.75 for the bowl, half-eaten pictured below. We couldn’t finish the acai bowl because it was too smoothie-like/sweet, not a real acai bowl. Felt like I threw $18 in the trash. The employees however were nice and wonderful people- they took my order over the phone so I could pick it up right before closing time.

Cultural appropriation. They don't even mention Brazil in the shop. If it wasn't for our knowledge açaí wouldn't be able for consumption.
