Fairly sure this place is racist. Rude staff that couldn’t seem to prioritize good service. The woman before me had to keep reminding them what she ordered and they weren’t helpful or polite and the same for me. It honestly felt like they didn’t want to serve me which I don’t think I’ve ever experience before.

I went here on a whim...Pleasantly surprised. All the smoothies are amazing and healthy it seems. What's a hidden gem for me is the coffee smoothies and the coffee...It's all creamy and excellent. The coconut roll/bun thing is off the hook. The staff is super friendly and eager to assist with a smile. It's so refreshing compared to dealing with online crap, no service, and too much automation at other places. These are real people making your really good drinks and food items and they seem to do it with care and kindness. You won't get that from a machine :). Thanks Kitanda!

Really love how close this place is to me and always get their açaí bowls 1-2x a week. However, I've noticed there is a total discrepancy in portions depending on the time of day you place an order for an açaí bowl.
Come on the morning and you'll get what feels like the largest portion of toppings - I add condensed milk to the Frutas and omit the dried mango. When I pull the lid off, you can expect the top layer of toppings stuck to the lid because whoever is working in the morning is an angel.
However I came here Tuesday afternoon around 4pm and felt like I didn't as much as I usually do. I could tell because it requires a lot of brute strength to really dig through the thick layers of toppings to get to the açaí bowl.
Today, at 5:45pm, I was craving a bowl after leaving the hospital and had my fiancé order a to-go order. When I got home, the bowl was nothing like the bowls I've received in the past month regarding toppings. I'm disappointed that throughout the day, it feels like I need to time when I place an order to ensure I get enough to feel satisfied for a few hours.
If I could do half stars, I'd say these two experiences would have my review at 3.5 stars; however, I don't want my experience to deter folks from supporting this business and trying their menu. Just expect better açaí bowl portions in the morning :)
