I always come here when I stop by in Santa Cruz and get their acai bowls! They are absolutely delicious and the fruit is so fresh! Highly recommend!

I live between San Diego, Orange County, and Los Angeles and I can say the tacos lived up those standards. This taco stand is Mexican-American owned and authentic in its quality. I also had a mango agua fresca which was good as well.

This is not what I had in mind when I heard the name “Pleasure Point Juice” but it was just as creamy and as satisfying as…well you know… The açai bowl was the best I’ve had outside of Rio De Janeiro. Not overly sweet and not too frozen. The mango kiwi and blueberry was very fresh. If I lived in the area I would go broke from eating here on a daily basis

Who would’ve thought that a juice shop would be right behind a taco truck nestled away in pleasure point. Was pleasantly surprised to enjoy my açaí bowl and smoothie. Came here because it was recommended to me and I couldn’t agree more. The fruit tasted very fresh and the ingredients had the perfect balance of sweet and crunchy in the bowl.

Amazing acai bowls and tacos ! Super fresh, fast service and close to Pleasure Point Beach. Definitely a hidden gem - one of the best acai bowls I've had in a long time and generous with fresh fruit too !

Quiet spot and quick service. Sophias bowl was amazing. Couldn't wait to eat before sharing a photo of the bowl, it was too good!
