What is an Açai Bowl?
It is only one of the most nutritious and delicious foods you can get your spoon in! Yap. We start with scoops of pure organic frozen açai berries.

If you are not familiar with most of those, don’t worry, we will fill you in on all the great benefits of having a spoonful of some of those too. Have an Açai Jungle Bowl for a snack or a meal with no guilt. Chances are you will not be consuming anything all day that will be as healthy and full of nutrition as an Açai Jungle Bowl.
ORIGIN
Welcome to Açai Jungle Cafe, where our passion for delicious and healthy food is contagious! It all started in 2005 when we wanted to share our love for the perfect Açai Bowl through the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu community after an adventurous trip to Brazil. In 2012 we started an Ipanema style beach stand in the heart of Burbank, California to share it with the rest of you. In 2015 the space right next to our stand became available and our dreams of owning a cafe became a sweet reality. We were excited to expand our menu to include really delicious sandwiches, salads, smoothies and shakes to be enjoyed in a beautiful space with indoor and outdoor seating. We also love bringing seasonal items to our Specials Menu like soups, wraps, coolers and so much more, that you can always look forward to. All of our ingredients are fresh and organic. We don’t use any GMOs, soy lecithin, or other chemicals. Pure and bold is our philosophy!
OUR VISION
We wanted to create a space where you can unwind or get together and socialize while having great tasting food that’s also really good for you. We pride ourselves in serving gourmet food that’s accessible, creative and made with so much love. A space with great vibes, soothing and soulful music, calming design and friendly service.
OUR DESIGN
We have put lots of thought into the design and function of the space from soothing and clean colors, beautiful flood of natural light though our huge windows, energizing plants inside and throughout our outdoor patio. The tiles hugging our counter were an exciting part of the decor made of cement and hand crafted with design that tie the tropical tribal to the new and now. We have chosen our music to make you feel at ease but with a lot of flavor and soul from Brazilian, African, South American and European artists. Special light bulbs have been chosen to add to the whimsy and help maintain a healthy circadian rhythm. We hope you love it at Acai Jungle as much as we do.
