Lovely spot in Golden for healthy and fresh snacks! Sometimes there's a bit of wait but I know to order ahead online when I'm rushed on time. I live the good vibes, fresh fruits and healthy options.My go to is the iced chai shroom latte and I love their Buddha bowl wrap! The toasts are also fabulous and now im really hungry and think I'm going to go there for breakfast!Def worth checking this place out and feel free to being your pup for the outdoor seating on the street.

Rated this place two stars for the friendly staff. I was very much looking forward to this place, even though the prices of the açai bowls kind of diverted me from wanting to try it out, but I gave it a shot, and I am highly disappointed. It is unfortunate that I had to wait almost 25 minutes for a $16 açai bowl that barely had any toppings. I had to even request a little bit more of a topping I ordered and paid extra for. I don’t know why it took so long to get the açai bowl and I did see that the reviews mentioned a wait time but I figured that was going to be more for hot food, which would make sense. It’s nice to see the owner defending their employees on negative reviews but the wait time is very outrageous especially because it wasn’t that busy in the restaurant. Something needs to improve on that as well as the presentation of the açai bowls and the amount of toppings that are used considering this is one of the most expensive açai bowls I’ve ever come across in my life and it was also the one that liked the most ingredients. if I choose to try out the other food this place has to offer. I will definitely be ordering ahead. I hope that the staff doesn’t take my review the wrong way and can improve on the weight times, at least for a simple, açai bowl.

Very long waits. High prices. Waiting 20 min for an açaí bowl which cost $15. Next!

Discover the ultimate fresh experience in downtown Golden! The Hilo Poke Bowl was savory bliss, and the warm staff made me feel right at home.

I have had a terrible experience each time but this last time really encompassed it all. No other customers were there, it took 20 minutes for our food (two bowls totaled almost $40). Mine was missing ingredients, my partner's was inedible. We counted 3-4 staff members there, laughing and would frequently come out giggling saying "sorry I am just tired today, I will make your food, I promise." Finally at the end when I used the restroom, ZERO TP and paper towels. How is there 3-4 staff, no customers and no one has checked the restroom? It honestly feels like a group of non-invested youth just hanging out each time I go. I have supported Washington St businesses for over a decade but will not be returning again.

Rice was hard and crunchy, which is unfortunate considering how expensive the bowls are.

We were there on vacation in early January and stopped at Kona Coffee Cafe for a pick me up. Wow. Absolutely top notch coffee and the staff were fun and helpful. 10/10, telling all my friends who are in the area to try this place out!

We love stopping here every time we drive through Golden. The food is delicious and the acai bowls are great! It takes a long time to get your food so I would plan to wait for at least 15 mins if not 20 to get anything back (including smoothies). They have a dog-friendly outdoor seating area (no dogs allowed inside), and there is a seating area inside too. This place is best as a take-out spot, since the parking can be tough, but the food is just so good... We stop every time.

Found this place on a whim when we were visiting golden. Absolutely fell in love with it. They have a HUGE menu! Bowls, smoothies, avocado toasts, the list goes on. We had the big wave bowl and it was delicious. It came out fast and the girls working were so friendly. From the second you walk in, this place is vibrant and inviting. It's amazing to see all the pictures and decor from Hawaii, including pics of the owners and their story. It was super inspiring and a great vibe for a place like this! Can't wait to come back here and try more things from their menu. Check this place out if you're in golden and you want some amazing healthy options!

With no orders ahead of us, I'm wondering why it took over 20 minutes to get our food.

Great vibe here. Very fresh and healthy food. You can see tons of fresh fruit on the back counter. The wait for my food was a little long for only a couple of other customers there. Pricey but can't expect less. Blue Hawaiian Smoothie was so tasty. The Classic Avo toast was very good also. My toast was extra toasty but was still amazing. Overall really enjoyed all the fresh flavors
