“I heard about Juice Time through social media and had to see what all the hype was about — and it absolutely lived up to it. I stopped by on a Saturday evening, and while the line was out the door, it moved surprisingly fast and was well worth the short wait.

I ordered the Labubu Dubai Chocolate Strawberries and a Lotus Biscoff Milkshake, and both were incredible. The Dubai chocolate strawberries were honestly the best I’ve ever had. The strawberries themselves were super fresh, the pistachio cream had a beautiful, smooth texture, and the rich chocolate paired perfectly with the crunchy kataifi. The Labubu itself was a nice surprise — filled with pistachio cream and kataifi on what seemed to be a chocolate cake base — absolutely delicious.

The Lotus Biscoff milkshake was equally amazing — creamy, perfectly balanced, and full of that signature Biscoff flavor without being overly sweet.

Overall, this place exceeded expectations. Everything was thoughtfully made and packed with flavor. I’m already looking forward to coming back to try more of their menu.“

“I like this place choose your own. I ice cream yogurt, my little daughter she likes the frozen yogurt it was wonderful. Take whatever you want. Go out you can sit outside also but the only things missing when you get into the business especially like employed standing they’re not sitting they supposed to say hello like when you get into Subway welcome to Subway. Welcome to Home Depot. Thank you for visiting these words. They’re very important to any business. When I get there, it was look like I am getting to cemetery.“

“The two persons (I believe young ladies, but wouldn't want to offend anyone not identifying as such) were amazing, composed, and fast. The line on a Sunday afternoon was out the door but they didn't flounder, panic, look rushed, or stressed...I applaud the two working today Nov 20, 22 at approx. 1630 hours. Amazing guest service skills and skill level.Thank you“

Prinkipia Frozen Yogurt Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt • $$
415 Parkway Plaza, El Cajon

“I think Prinkipia is one of the best in flavor of fruity fro-yo in the area. Pomegranate, mango, watermelon are my kid’s favorite. The thing they could improve is they need to keep the toppings in closed single mini containers so they won’t dry out especially topping like mochi which would turns hard when you let it sit in open container for a long time.
For service, well it’s never a big deal to me as long as they weight the stuff and ring the price right.“
