I love Backyard Bowls! There was a boo boo with the delivery item and they made it right by reimbursing me. I didn't expect it as I know there is A LOT that goes into it. Very grateful.

Like the product but 30 minutes for a smoothie and 1 bowl is underwhelming. Should add some staff on busy days.

I came for breakfast and got the power bowl in a regular (medium) size, without honey so that it's vegan. It was a decent acai bowl. The toppings were in a thick layer on top and all the acai was on the bottom so it was kind of hard to mix the flavors around - probably it would've been better if the container was more of a wider bowl rather than a tall narrow cup. There were too many almonds for my taste, but the other toppings were good. The acai blend was tasty, not overly sweet, and the bowl was filling.

I love Backyard Bowls but they're understaffed a lot. Recently, I had to wait 50 minutes for 2 smoothies when the original wait time was 20 minutes. When I came up to check on my order, I saw that one of my smoothie in the back just sitting there- it looked like it was sitting there a while because when they handed it to me, the top part was looking a little watery. What's wild is that as soon as they realized the order was incomplete, they started the order and managed to get the other smoothie out in only a few minutes. I also saw a couple in-person orders be completed before mine and those people came after me. I wish they'd have a more accurate time tracking for the orders and that they would staff appropriately.

Enjoyed my backyard bowl while visiting SB. Easy to order, good prices, quality food, and ample parking (free lot). Will be back!

Last time I went they were so understaffed and I was late to school for waiting. I didn't even leave with my bowl I had to get a refund. Don't put the sign "order online" if we can't order online. I would leave a 0 star if I could.

Today was a good one! I crave this for breakfast about once or twice a month, love the variety of fruits balanced out by granola. Not always the fastest service but always friendly and upbeat. In the past I've had issues with over salting the avo toast so I'd recommend if you do order that, ask for no salt. Cheers!

No effort made on the patio. Tables in the blazing sun on the corner of a parking lot. How hard is it to put out some umbrellas?

The green bowl is so tasty and has a pleasant zing from the ginger and lime. Delicious!

I finally tried this place not too long ago after driving by it a million times. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I've had a few bowls now, but I have to say my favorite is the Power Bowl. Super delicious. I get the large bowl. I think its a better value than the regular. This place is easy to find, its at la cumbre mall, just up from Chipotle. There are a handful of restaurants to choose from in the mall area, and this is one you should try. I think you will like it.Parking: Easy parking in La Cumbre Mall lot.

First time here. The Berry and Island Bowls taste great. Perfect for a hot summer day and after a work out! Slightly pricier side.
