Açaí (pronounced Ah • sigh • EE) is a deep purple berry that grows on palm trees in the Amazon rainforest. Known for its rich nutritional profile, this superfood has become a global favorite for clean energy, vibrant flavor, and powerful nourishment.
Our bowls celebrate everything that makes açaí special — bold taste, natural antioxidants, and a refreshing boost that fits perfectly into the rhythm of New Orleans.
Açaí berries are packed with antioxidants that help strengthen your immune system and protect your cells from free‑radical damage.
They’re naturally rich in fiber, supporting healthy digestion, keeping you full longer, and helping maintain steady blood sugar levels. Açaí also contains omega‑3, 6, and 9 fatty acids — heart‑healthy fats that promote balanced cholesterol and overall cardiovascular wellness. And with its naturally high calcium content, açaí helps support strong bones, muscles, nerves, and heart function.

I grew up in Uptown New Orleans with a deep love for adventure and culture. After earning my chemistry degree in 1996, I packed up my Jeep and headed west — following the same path my grandfather took two generations before me.
My journey eventually led me to Rio de Janeiro, where I fell in love with the people, the energy, and the vibrant beach culture. I even owned a kiosk on Copacabana Beach, where açaí is part of everyday life and found on nearly every corner. Bringing that authentic experience back home became my dream. Today, NOLA AÇAÍ is the realization of that vision — delivering fresh, bold, Brazilian‑inspired açaí bowls to New Orleans.

At NOLA AÇAÍ, we believe great food doesn’t need to be complicated. KISS (Beijo) — Keep it simple, sempre (always).
We use organic açaí and let you build your perfect bowl with fresh fruit, granola, and other delicious toppings. Prefer gluten‑free? Just ask — we’ve got gluten‑free granola ready for you.
Fresh. Simple. Authentic. Always.
Whether you’re discovering açaí for the first time or craving a taste of Brazil right here at home, our bowls bring the best of both worlds together — New Orleans soul and Brazilian tradition.
