The best açaí bowl you will ever have in San Diego alert‼️I’ve tried many other açaí bowls and none of them live up to their bowls. They always have the perfect amount of peanut butter and sweetness. Never Icy, always smooth and creamy açaí.@the_lean_bean#sandiegofoodie #foodie #photography #acai #fruity #foodphotography #foodblogger #yumm #forkyeah #healthy

A place where they know your name and your order, always loyal to the local beauties such as the lean bean. Best service and coffee in town. Oh and dont forget my usual, acai bowl with everything ;)

This place is THE BEST for acaí bowls. Each one is made with love and everyone there is as sweet as can be! My daughter and I always get the banana and peanut butter bowl. It comes with strawberries, blueberries, coconut, granola, and agave. And the banana and peanut butter of course! Highly recommend if youre in the east county area.

Look! This place is exactly what you see, I quick and easy place to pull up and get coffee or a snack! Ive waited no more than 5 minutes to order. Their acai bowl is pretty good, that’s my usual order, just wish they had a size bigger than the one they offer. The fruit seems fresh and it’s pretty bomb. They even have treats for your dog if they are riding shotgun with you! I go there often and I am always satisfied with everything overall. You the owner sees this, please offer a bigger size of açaí bowl, I try to use an açaí bowl as a meal replacement.

I love acai bowls and this is my favorite in all of the San Diego area! I love a thicker acai and theirs is perfect. You can get it with either peanut butter or without. The staff is always very friendly and if theres a line it goes fast as well!

I’m still waiting to find a place in San Diego that makes better açaí bowls than The Lean Bean does. The employees are all so very nice and warm, and I can’t describe how perfect their bowls and drinks are to me. I will forever ride for this establishment. Thank you Lean Bean!!

This has been my favorite spot for the acai bowls until today July 4th!Apparently the Acai bowls were pre-made so by the time I got home (3 min away), the acai was completely melted and warm. It tasted terrible.Then to make matters worse, when my wife went back she was received with a bad attitude. What happened Lean Bean?
