They have the best tasting bowl I've ever had. The problem is it costs $25 to get it. Id get it every day if the prices were reasonable.

Rico's Açaí bowls are my favorite in uptown. I always get the rainbow bowl with peanut butter & Nutella. Rico's is located in the 7th street market, Right outside a light rail stop. They also have free Parking for people who shop/eat there... just bring Your parking ticket in with you to get validated

Super fresh, flavorful and sweet. I got the ButterBro but substituted some things to get more of what I desired. The lady was very helpful and compromising to fit my taste. She omitted the almond butter and Nutella for my request in local honey, peanut butter, strawberries, and raspberries. I enjoyed this Acai bowl much better than that place that starts with an N. Better value and more food for the money for sure. Her coworker was also very nice and friendly as I was their last customer for the day. Nice location if you're following a gps. It's in a little corner of a parking lot next to a bridge. Outdoor picnics tables next to the truck and a port-a-potty.

I pass by this food truck every week on my way to my physical therapy appointment in uptown, and there are always people in line or waiting for their orders. It's located in the parking lot next to the Catholic Church across from the Duke Energy building. I decided I needed to see what these Acai bowls are all about. I ordered a small rainbow bowl ($10.28). I asked if they have a kid size bowl but they don't. Small and large are the only options. It took about 4 minutes for them to prepare my order. There are two people working in the food truck and it looks like they cut up all the fruit themselves. The presentation is nice, the fruit is very fresh (cut into small pieces, not big chunks) and the Acai at the bottom of the bowl is very cold and icy. There is also granola which adds some texture and a nice crunch. I did find a few blueberries that still have stems on them. This is a refreshing snack. I think I'll be back to try some of the other bowls.

$5 fruit bowl!? Hard to beat Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, kiwi, pineapple,and bananas. Downside: my bananas were warm weird contradiction of cool fresh fruit but warm mushy bananas. Still for $5 can't beat that; I'll just nix the bananas next time.
