I visited for the first time because I'm aware of the hype this place gets from the NorCal location (which I have not been to) and I happened to be in the area, so why not. The place wasn't quite what I expected as it was very simple inside. For a place located in Beverly Hills, I had a vision of it being decorated nicely and plenty of seating. Seating was minimal to window stools and a small area behind the counter.
That said, I came to try one of the bowls since that's what I was most familiar with. They offer a handful of bowl options preset, or build your own. There is also a dozen or so smoothies to choose from.
For my first time, I went with their most popular bowl, the Bay Blend Bowl. I was familiar with everything that was in it, except the coconut beach base. The bowl was very good and you can taste the quality ingredients that are used.
The service was great from the moment I walked in and was greeted until I left the store. The bowl was presented beautifully and was a perfect fit to the top of the lid. The first few bits were good, but I wasn't wowed. However, by the time I got to the coconut base, I was impressed!!!! I like coconut, but am very picky as to the what foods it is combined with, texture, sweetness, etc. This bowl worked in every way. Once I tasted the coconut, I think every bite from there on out had a bit of coconut on the spoon.
Something different and refreshing! I get the hype and I will definitely return. Only thing I was a bit annoyed by was trying to find parking. All the lots were full and so were street spaces. I was on my last circle around the block when luckily someone pulled of a space. Plan accordingly as ya may be walking a bit.
