“First off the food here is delicious. The smoothies are also delicious. For me my favorite is the hot dog with all the toppings and the nachos or tostilocos. I did remove a star because at 10am I placed an order for a Bionico platter for a party and was to pick it up at 4:30pm. When I arrived it wasn't made at all. The lady asked when I ordered it and I told her 7 hours ago and they rushed to get it ready. Seriously it was delicious and beautiful looking but I had to take a star off because I was in a rush but had to wait 15 to 20 minutes for it to be made.“
“I just love this place. I come every other day to buy my husband and myself greens and ginger smoothie. It tastes delicious. The staff is friendly courteous polite can't ask for better service. Yes sometimes you got to wait because there's people but we all have to have patience they're trying their best to deliver service as quickly as possible. You've noticed that this drink has improved our digestive system making us feel better every day. I recommend this drive for those with digestive problems. Bon appetit!“
“The owners are very friendly and atmosphere is relaxed. I ordered the Mamey Shake and Chicken (Spinach Tortilla) wrap?✨✨My man ordered the Chicken Ciabatta Chipotle Sandwich and for a drink, it had Mango, Orange, and Carrot?✨✨Satisfying Portions.Perfect for a day out and loads of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner✨10/10 recommend to everyone that enjoys fresh, delicious meals and drinks reasonably priced.Parking: Parking is in back of restaurant✨“
“Me and my partner come here like 2x a day . We enjoy it so much . I love the staff and I can’t forget about the reward points program lol . I use to go to juice crafts until I started coming here . No shade to juice crafters ,but I get more bang for my buck here .“
“Fast and friendly service. Ordered a Combo with the Turkey Club and a Green Smoothie. Everything was made fresh. The sandwich had the perfect amount of ingredients, and they didn't overdo the garlic aioli.This is my second time here, and both times have been very good.This is a mom & pop shop, but the food is good. They only offer take-out, but it's good for a grab and go meal. I would highly recommend.Parking: Strip mall parkingWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp got wheelchair access“
“As a Taiwanese person who grew up in boba land, I can tell you that the boba milk tea is pretty good. It's more towards milky end instead of rich tea flavor ones. Their original recipe is not too sweet so there's no point to adjust the sweetness. Or just ask the owner to make his favorite ratio. You should totally give it a try. (I cannot endorse other items as I just tried one product)“
“100% Plant Based! It is AMAZING to have a vegan place like this in the area. Quality food, SUPER Fresh! The owner of the place is super nice and the vibes inside are great! 10/10 and the prices are also super fair with large portions. If you have not been here you need to check it out! Ive been a few times now and am always impressed!“

“I love how they put black bean in the sandwiches and they also have couple of protein options the. Ice creams do taste like real fruit and I am so happy to feed my kids once in a while so they too try other fruit in a different form than at home. Is always crowed and I find it so con. Eminent always to just call and place my order for pick up. I'll be sharing picks once I get my food and ice cream because I am waiting in my cars for it to be ready“
“I've had many açaí bowls from different spots and Roots & Rye just hits different. I loooooove that you can get not only the açaí blend but the matcha blend as well. Their portion size of each thing they add in the bowl is also perfect, not too much one one thing or another and there are definitely places that might overdo it on, say, the granola or the blended stuff. I've only been to this location so I can't speak for the other spots but at this one, they only let in a few people at a time which means a line can end up forming outside. I haven't had to deal with a long line before but it can definitely take some time to get everyone through and finally make it inside. Still, one of my favorite açaí places, if not my favorite!“

“A gem in Little Tokyo! One of my favorite places for matcha, and my top pick is the soft serve ?? The owners' attention is very friendly. The entire staff is attentive and always greets you with a smile.The space is quite small, and every time I've visited, it's always crowded.If you want to try something authentic, warm, and delicious, I recommend this place. ✨“
“If the review was solely about drinks, then I'd give it a 5 star. The ambiance is nice and relaxing. However, the parking lot in the back gets pretty dark after 5:30. However, please fix your kiosk system. There was a service fee on top of 10.25% tax for ordering the drinks yourself on the machine. Do better. Don't treat your loyal customers like garbage. It was extremely disappointing when I had to get told by your staff that they won't be able to refund the drinks.I was never taxed when I order directly from your cashier... and I had to pay a service fee for ordering myself. I was extremely disappointed.“
“Loooved this acai bowl place! They're located in Blossom Market Hall.We got a 24 oz bowl for $16 and it was enough to share between two. I chose an acai / coconut base, with chia pudding. Both the acai and coconut layers were SO refreshing! We topped it off with every fruit selection they had, and overall it was a nice balance :)Selections for toppings are pretty standard, though other acai spots I've been to have definitely had a broader selection. They have options between peanut or almond butter, granolas, and other plant seeds.Service was quick and prompt, and there's lots of seating in the market itself!“

“This location is amazing. Everything is fresh and I would recommend 50/50 Juice Lounge for gathers, company meetings and community events. I have sent many of our corporate partners to have dine-in lunch. The music adds such a relaxing vibe. The staff is very polite and give great suggestions to first time visitors.Vegetarian options: The Kale salad is everything !Dietary restrictions: My sister loves fruit but she is allergic to pineappleKid-friendliness: The pickiest child will love the fruit Taco“
“Best location in town for acai bowls and smoothies!!! Highly recommend Veranos!! I can’t get enough of the #25 with a scoop of vanilla protein !Dietary restrictions: Very macro friendlyParking: Can get tough with parking just because it’s shared with other businesses. The times I’ve gone I was able to find parking with no problem at all“
“Visited on a Friday night around 8pm.Ambiance is really nice and perfect for a date night. The staff was so friendly and the restaurant is picturesque.We ordered the following:Salt and Peppered Paella (living): 4/5Yucca Friend Pho Beef Everything was so good!!! They have so many options and the waitress was really helpful in providing recommendations. The servings are huge! I honestly can’t wait to go back.Highly recommend!! FYI no alcohol is served there but they have really fun drinks and teas!“
“The most delicious breakfast sandwich I've ever had. So many vegan/veggie options for my friend too. Next time I'ma have the yogurt granola and the chocolate Abuelita. The vibes are perfect too - beautiful art, cozy indoors, fresh plants “
“I just left Yo-Way Eatery about 30 minutes ago. Yo-Way did it again!!! My sandwich was huge and delicious. I'd like to go on and on but I would just be repeating what I said in my last review. The consistency of the deliciousness of their sandwiches ensures I'll be back next month. Thanks for a great meal. PS there's a really popular sandwich place in LA that has a reputation of being one of the best sandwich shops. Yo-way, you are second to none!!!“
“Besteas Boba is pretty good, and they often have good deals. They have a large selection of options. Just be aware that many flavors can taste very artificial, so if you’re not into that it may not be the spot for you! The owners are very nice!“
“Tienen una selección muy amplia de bebidas sin llegar a ser demasiadas, la mía estaba muy buena, el lugar está limpio y tiene una estética minimalista, el postre estaba bastante rico sin llegar a ser empalagoso, y la bebida estaba bastante refrescante, si quieres tomar una bebida mientras te relajas una tarde de verano puedo recomendar este lugar.“
“Super refreshing fresh sugar cane juice that reminds me of SE Asia. The original cane juice is great to see what pure cane juice tastes like but the fruit mixes are excellent too like the calamansi one. Their chili chips are excellent and would be great just to pair with plain jasmine rice.“
“It’s been years since i last stopped by before I moved to Chicago. Can’t leave without having my boba. I grew up in the K-Town District. You don’t always have a chance to come back home to visit.Kid-friendliness: You can get your kid ice cream, Oreo boba.“
“Amazing Bingsoo! I've been dying to try this place and it did not disappoint! The owner was very sweet and cheerful! The bingsoo itself *chefs kiss* this has to be one of my new favorite dessert places! Please come try this, you won't regret it! Also side note, the actual location is inside of the market just go inside and you'll find it!“
“Shout out to the guy who delivered my drink to my car! It was super packed so I decided to wait for my drink in the car. When my drink was finished one of the workers came to my car to hand me my drink. I thought that was super nice and he went above and beyond. Also the cups are super adorable!“
“Came across this hidden gem while driving down from the valley! Great quality and flavored drinks and one of the best Matcha latte with brûlée and oreos. An absolute game-changer! They use ceremonial grade matcha straight from Japan. The earthy matcha flavor combined with their cream brûlée made it an unforgettable experience.Not to mention their service and attentiveness is top-notch.“
“Gelato Amore Mio offers exceptional service and desserts at great prices. Their homemade ice cream and gelato are must-tries. The crêpe with strawberries, mango, whipped cream, Nutella, Lechera, and coconut gelato was my favorite. Highly recommended for a top-notch dessert experience!“
“I really like Honey Hi. The food is healthy, and always gives me great energy. I used to always frequent this place and yet the salmon bowl -- which was pretty expensive. I'm not sure if they still make it. Everything is expensive considering the portions, and I've unfortunately had to cut back eating here in an effort to save a bit more money. But if I could afford to eat here everyday, I definitely would!“
“all I can say is " YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE EXPERIENCE, AT LEAST ONCE"make your own .... everything you want.... why wouldn't you love it!!!Good people. Good vibes... all around the best ice cream / funnel cakes / churros in LONG BEACH! ☀️“
“Nice and cool looking coffee shop. I tried the Spanish latte, the blueberry smoothie, the smores cookie, and two banana chocolate chip muffins. It was soo good, I loved all of it.Location: It's on the 2nd floor across from the sushi place. Once you get to the top of the first part of the stairs, make a right, and the coffee shop is in there.The coffee shop has a sweet lady who is very excited to see people come in. It's located in a private spot due to the number of closed shops on the same floor, so definitely stop by here and support this sweet lady. She works on her own and she always has the biggest smile. You can tell she enjoys making the drinks and food. Also, it's a great place to get cooled off. It's got nice seating on the side of the coffee shop and a gorgeous mural you can see.Wheelchair accessibility: Sadly, it's not wheelchair accessible :(“
“I used to frequent Bambu growing up and all the ones in my area closed. I saw this spot next to the restaurant I was having dinner at and knew I was going to be getting dessert from here. If I just hadn't had a pasta dinner, I would have ordered a Chewy Pandan but I knew that would be too filling so I opted for the Jelly Coco. The Jelly Coco is coconut water based instead of coconut milk so it's more refreshing and lighter. It fruits (coconut, lychee, longan) and fun pandan and basil seed bits. I enjoyed my drink and would definitely be returning to try the Chewy Pandan. Service was quick! We were there arounf 30 minutes before closing and although there were a few people who ordered ahead of us, we still got our drinks fairly quick. The inside has very few seating so I would'nt hangout there for too long.“
“Beautiful stuff here. Staff did do great with their service and attention to detail. Really poured a beautiful matcha tea plus went nicely on the light boba. Flavors were great! I think the matcha quality isn't the best which doesn't make it a 5* drink but the baristas still did great.“
“I absolutely love this juice bar! I found it by accident walking around the neighborhood and popped in for a smoothie. It was amazing. You can taste the freshness and quality ingredients. Everything is made with ripe fruit, fresh and organic ingredients. They even sold spotted bananas! This is my new juice place.“
“Just being totally honest here – the food is absolutely worth it! This place has a relaxed vibe when it comes to service and atmosphere. It's got this casual, neighborhood shop feel with a great selection of healthy options. Every time I walk in, I'm greeted by the delicious smell of their dishes. It's a treat for the senses!“
“I'm so glad that there is a good restaurant like this near where I live. First of all, the food quality is good and the price is also good. Also, while eating the food, I felt how sincere the chef and owner are about the food. Other places often don't have fresh ingredients, but here all the ingredients are fresh and they don't skimp on the ingredients. It's close to home so I think I'll go often.“

“Great spot to get juices, smoothies, and snacks. The employees are nice, it's clean and has a funky vibe. I'm going to try the juices the next time I'm In the area. If you're out for a walk this is a good place to get your snack.“
“I heard about Jugos Naturales through word of mouth. I decided to pay the establishment a visit. When I entered the restaurant it reminded me about the mom n pop shops aesthetic found in Mexico. Very vibrant colors and many pictures of the food they sell. The two ladies working the establishment were very kind and did not rush us when we looked over the menu. We diced to order a torta that did not disappint, an esquite with Hot Cheeto crumbs that was something new for me but definitely not a regret, a licuado de platano which was delicious, and a bionico that was extremely generous in serving. The food overall was delicious. I'd also like to add that the serving sizes are generous and their food is made to order. Will I be returning? No doubt. Thanks Jugos Naturales!“
“bf and I went looking for something healthy after our hike and discovered this gem! The service is great and friendly, and the food is excellent! I had the strawberry salad and he had the chicken chipotle sandwich with side salad. The food was made well, all the fruit and greens were fresh and delicious! We were both very happy.“

“This place is awesome! The extensive variety of options could seem overwhelming, but they seamlessly categorize each tea to make things so easy! Plus having an herbalist right there to help you decide on what works best for you is amazing. Definitely will be returning for the tea and the customer service!“
“Decided to treat myself to a milk tea after a run and looked up local boba shops in the area and came across Moo Tea. I got a regular milk tea with 50% sugar and less ice and it was good! The tea flavor was definitely present but not as strong as other places in the area. If you're a bit more sensitive towards sweetness in your drinks, I would stick with 25% as I found the 50% to be a bit too sweet for me. I came at around 4 PM on a Sunday and the store was empty so the service was undeniably quick. There's a kiosk to order from so you can take your time and look through the menu. Overall, a good experience and would come back!“
“This place is super delicious with their bagels and bagel creations. Stock N Lox, The Exchange sandwich and any of their bagels with any of their cream cheeses...more specifically, chives and onions, is my go-to.Parking: Plenty of street parking around the area“
“One of my favorite places to stop by when in Compton, especially on a nice warm day.So many flavors to choose from. Workers are always friendly. One if the things I love most is you can get your flavored lemonade delivered to your event so everyone can enjoy a sip of this mouth watering lemonade.“
“This is truly a hidden gem. The biónicos here are amazing. We visit at-least once a week and we are always greeted with a warm welcome and a smile. We visit with my 3 year old daughter and they always acknowledge her and give her their undivided attention. The food is great and the ambiance is nice and cozy. I recommend everyone try this place.“
“Great prices and options for juice, popsicles, smoothies, and more! I enjoyed their mangeonada. I am vegan and found so many great options for me. So glad it’s in the neighborhood.Dietary restrictions: Many juices, smoothies, and paletas are vegan by default. Can ask if you have any questions about items.“
“What a great donut spot. Staff is friendly and always great you with a smile. The ambiance is your classic donut shop with a glass case to view your doughnuts as you make your selections. They have refrigerates that store your cold drinks like juice, chocolate milk, milk etc. of course they serve coffee for those of you who want one with your donut and they also sell breakfast sandwiches. We usually go for the donuts. Donuts are great. We've had everything from glazed, maple bars, chocolate bars, cake donuts and of course the traditional donut holes. Every donut is very good. You can't go wrong with any one you pick. Looking for a donut and cup of coffee, give this place a try. Oh! You can also buy lotto tickets as well. Stay hungry my friends.“
“This is a great place in the Japanese Village to get refresher that is healthy and tastes amazing without all the sugar additives. It's my go to place when I'm in Little Tokyo when I want a fresh, healthy and ice cold juice.Although they don't have a dine in area, they do have outdoor seating which is nice when you need to sit back and take in the people watching and decide on what store or restaurant you'll go to next.“
“NO BREAKFASTShowed up for breakfast sandwiches & the menu changed, they did not have breakfast options. This was the only reason for 4 stars rather than 5.I ordered the lavender oat latte without sweet foam & the farmers market sandwich. The latte was the perfect sweetness & the sandwich had super fresh ingredients & warm focaccia.It was almost $50 for 2 lattes & 2 sandwiches but the ambiance was great. Very clean with lots of natural light & roomy tables. A great place to get some work done.“
“A great small cafe to study at/catchup with friends. The place has free wifi and plenty of seats for getting work done. The owner is friendly and accommodative to your needs. It gives off a nice homey vibe. I recommend trying the yogurt smoothies. It has a nice deep yogurt tart which complements the sweetness of the fruits very well. Overall it is an outstanding place to get work done.“
“My visit to 88 Hotdog was an unexpectedly delightful culinary adventure, especially for someone with a penchant for creatively crafted fast food. Nestled in a bustling, crowded area where parking can be a bit of a treasure hunt, this gem stands out for its unique offerings and commendable service.Starting with the mozzarella corn dog, it was a standout in both size and flavor, offering great value for its price. The corn dog was perfectly crispy on the outside, with a gooey, stretchy mozzarella center that was both satisfying and indulgent. It’s the kind of treat that brings a smile to your face with each bite, blending the nostalgic essence of a classic corn dog with a cheesy twist that elevates it to a whole new level.The adventure didn't stop there; the yogurt drinks were a revelation in their own right. I indulged in a variety of flavors - peach, mango, blueberry, and pineapple - each one more refreshing and flavorful than the last. These drinks had a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness, with the fruit flavors shining through beautifully. They were not just good; they were exceptional, adding a refreshing contrast to the savory richness of the corn dog.The service at 88 Hotdog deserves a special mention. Despite the crowded location, the employee was friendly, efficient, and quick to serve, making the overall experience even more pleasant. It's always a breath of fresh air to encounter service that is both warm and competent, especially in fast-paced environments.While the parking situation and crowded surroundings might deter some, the culinary delights and the cheerful service at 88 Hotdog make it well worth the effort. It's a small price to pay for the joy of biting into a delicious mozzarella corn dog and sipping on exquisitely flavored yogurt drinks. For anyone in the area or those willing to brave the parking challenge, 88 Hotdog is a must-visit spot that promises a satisfying and tasty experience.“
“We walked in and we were created by the owner. The store has plenty of activities to keep children and adults like entertained. My daughtereven made friends while we waited! We ordered smoothies the tropical smoothie was sooo yummy. My toddler got the nana smoothie and all she could say in the ride home was Mom try some of mine...it's soo good! GREAT DRINKS GREAT ATMOSPHERE GREAT OWNER!“
“I have been coming here ever since I was a little boy and their snacks and food is just everything. Reminds me as if I were back in Mexico and they're such good people always welcoming me with a nice smile and making sure I'm ok. Everything is very fresh! And also just note the the place is pretty small so best place to eat it would most likely be in your car. Overall thank you for your kind service and amazing snacks hielo con sabor!“
