“Love the location, convenience, and quality! Not only do they serve some amazing protein shakes. There is also lots of healthy drinks and snacks to help you reach your fitness goals. Also, a good place to pick up your meal prep orders through the company Meals 4 Impact, go in store to scan their QR code, and place your order! Love the vibe in here, light and air and very clean! Thank you to the owners Nohemi & Jay for their hard work and love in this place!“
“I'm going to tell you the Pure Truth...THE CAKES ARE SO RICH AND TASTY THAT ME AND MY FRIENDS ARE REGULARLY GOING TO ENJOY THEM...it's a very special secret that To tell another truth I would like it if it turned out well. ....SAVED...??? ?“
“I tried this restaurant for the first time and ordered the Bulgogi Rice Bowl and it was amazing. The price is well worth it because the food comes in big portions. The lady there was very sweet and we got our food pretty quickly. The place was empty but everything was clean. I absolutely recommend eating there!Parking: There are lots of shops nearby so parking right outside the restaurant might be a little difficult.“
“Hands Down The Best DIPS EVER!!! Found these dips at a farmers market and fell in love. I now can get them anytime i want! There is not much to say, all of them are great, i love mixing the garlic spread on a pita then adding a humus and feta cheese to it for a light snack. My all time favorite, the Feta and Pesto Dip!The service is amazing, it always has. Always up for questions and love share their passion for the food that makes up their culture.“
“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)“
“Went here with a business associate for a super late lunch and was surprised at the options. We were both starving but had a long drive back home, so wanted something filling but still light enough to not cause food coma.The customizable options made it easy to order. Both of us split a bowl and mushrooms tacos on gluten free tortillas. They splits -plated our food so that was really nice that we did not have to.The Tacos had amazing flavors, we asked to add pickled onions to additional tang. It was great.The bowl with tofu and brown rice, while good could use a little bit more flavoring. We got the dressing on the side that added some depth, but I feel something else can be added to the bowl to up the umami flavors.Overall a good choice. Pricing was a bit on th higher side , unfortunately, in-line with most places these days.Vegetarian options: Very customizable options.“
“Food - 10/10 the pizza was delicious! Unfortunately when we came he didn't have much of the sandwiches because he sold out fast. I will definitely be back to try the other stuff. The drinks were good as well! PB&JAY protein shake was filing! And the Romeo and Juliet mimosa was sweet and savory! Service - fast, friendly, and efficient Ambiance - I love the ambiance! Indoor and outdoor seating. Love the decor inside and outside as well!“
“Ordered an affogato and brown sugar milk tea. If I ever need a strong caffeinated drink again, I’m definitely buying the affogato. Wonderful drink/dessert for caffeine addicts haha.Overall experience was great. Lovely atmosphere and plenty of room to sit and chat with friends.Small note: Pretty sure the cashier guy is new since he cancelled my option to tip and didn’t say anything to me until I ordered (just stared at me), but the drinks he made were superb. And only thing I would recommend for the shop is if they showed a bigger menu on the wall or a TV, not just on the counter.“
“Place is amazing! Super friendly staff and super super delicious. I got a bowl and it was amazing, place is super clean and has an amazing vibe. Miranda helped me and she was amazing and super friendly. She's absolutely amazing at her Job and made my bowl super quick and it was delicious. Would highly recommend.“

“I was introduced to Vita cane with my sister and I were in Denver and we wanted sugarcane juice. Lo and behold, there would be one within 15 minutes from my home in Huntington Beach. I had been meaning to come, but never had the time to until one day I drove by and decided YOLO. I grabbed a pennywort for me and a fruity orange one for my SO. Both were SO good. It was his first sugarcane juice so we decided to go fruity. Pennywort is always a fav of mine. While there, I had the pleasure of talking with the owner and I guess this is the only sugarcane juice in the area that splurges on organic sugarcane. Juices are freshly made to order and sooo worth it. Acai bowls are on the cheaper side. I had them in Denver and plan to have one from here as well soon! Place is clean and quiet. I'd imagine good for studying if I was still a student.“
“"RightExperience" I was visiting LB and made RightMealz my choice three times in three days. I even got to meet the owner Chris. In principle it's a simple business, but the execution and food was just perfect. The staff is friendly - even the coffee is superb. Long Beach is lucky to have them!“

“I came back to Ding Dong for the second time with my boyfriend, the milky flan is now my favorite shave ice. Their ice noodles is very unique and it visually pretty. The inside give out a very cute vibe with tables to sit and sofas as well. The service was good, the staff took our order even though they almost close and gave us a generous amount of everything. He even asked if I can eat peanut and asked for my opinion after I left. Definitely coming back again!“
“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!“
“Delicious, refreshing, and great customer service! Since moving to the area, we tried Açaí Republic randomly one weekend trying for a healthier breakfast alternative. The atmosphere of the restaurant is lively and fun, the customer service is wonderful every time, and the açaí bowls are absolutely delicious. Oh and the pastries too! Definitely recommend trying it out!“
“Hi! I'm a regular at juice station. I love going here with friends and family. The workers are very sweet and when I call over the phone to place my order they are super friendly. My order is always ready to go and comes out super fast! Their drinks are super fresh and yummy! I love their açaí bowls. If you haven't been here, definitely give this a try!!“
“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.“
“They just opened barely about a month ago! The owner was so sweet she offered free iced coffee on the house, but me and my boyfriend had matcha somewhere else. I loved the energy and the brief explanation of the bagel I asked for! I got the #1: 5th Ave bagel! It is so good with the salmon! If you want a mini lunch, with a lot of portions, this is it! Thank you again!“
“Healthy protein spot is the best. Never dissapointed when going for my protein fix! Management & employees are beyond great! Customer service is on point. The vibes inside the space are great. Very attracting and welcoming. They are awesome. I highly recommend to stop by for a refreshing shake or drink. They also provide protein snack options. They are the best. Get your health on track with healthy protein spot! Wont be dissappointed!“
“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!“
“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.“
“Such great service. The lady acknowledged me and was so friendly. I ordered the flaming hot Cheeto donut. It was surprisingly delicious I even had to share it with my friend so she can experience the flavors. She was also so surprised and had to tell her friends. It's a nice place to drink and eat and relax.“
“Love Esther’s! She has the best sandwiches and soup. My go to is her chicken salad sandwich with a cup of soup. SOUPER yummy ?Cash, zelle or venmo only so comePreparedShe’s located in the Old World shopping center! So glad I found her again.“
“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!“
“Amazing and comforting place! I will always recommend this place when eating with friends, family, significant others, etc. Food is delicious, fresh, and good portion sizes for the prices. The complimentary dessert is delicious and warm as well. The staff is also very polite and welcoming. I also appreciate how delicious the food can be to go. Most places have their to go food not as good quality but I can taste the quality the same when dining in and when I bring it home. Give it a try!“
“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! ☀️“
“The bagels and cream cheese are absolutely delicious!! The cream cheese is so smooth and creamy. Bagels have a nice crust and great soft dough inside without being chewy or cake-like. I had an everything bagel with chive cream cheese and my husband had an asiago bagel with jalapeño cream cheese. The chives and jalapeños were fresh and packed with flavor. Both tasted great. Staff were very nice. Coffee was a little bit too strong for me, but very smooth and flavorful nonetheless. We were fortunate the one (and only) table outside was free, so we got to eat and enjoy the sunshine. We'll definitely be back. Just wish they had an actual cafe with seating to enjoy eating on premise!“
“I absolutely love this place. I grew up drinking sugar cane juice and who knew the simple thought of adding coconut juice or even pennyworth juice to it would elevate it to a whole other level. This is perfectly and naturally sweet. I could not ask for a more refreshing drink. The drinks are $6 for a regular cup, and $7 for a large cup. It is honestly delicious. If you've never had sugar cane juice I would definitely give it a try.“
“There was no line when we came, so we got the teas very quickly. The woman at the cashier was very friendly and communicable. She was very eager to tell us about all of the various teas the place has to offer, and we even tried some new and unusual teas. The menu is very extensive, and teas we tried were absolutely delicious.“
“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.“
“So glad to see the new location on Bolsa that is across the street from my hair salon.This second location, located at the back of a strip mall, is more spacious inside with a small seating area to enjoy one's freshly pressed cane juice drinks.I ordered two large drinks: Mia Pome $7.00 (Cane Juice w/Pomegranate) and Mia Berry $7.00 (Cane Juice w/strawberry puree and sliced strawberry).The order was prepared quickly and I started my 52 mile commute home.I couldn't wait to enjoy my drink, so I was sipping mine on the EB91. It was refreshing and made my drive more tolerable. The only slight difference I noted was that the cane juice wasn't as sweet as it normally is at the original location. Not sure if that is due to the cane crop itself or maybe there is some extra water being added.I arrived home and my wife was very happy to see that there was still ice in her drink. She also mentioned how the cane juice did not seem as sweet as her last one as well. Despite that, we both still enjoyed our refreshing drinks.Looking forward to the opening of their third, undisclosed location mentioned on their website!“
“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!“
“I realize that I am a bit of a donut aficionado. I don't go for the over priced stuff but am willing to try it. I go for the pink box and the genuine tastes! I go for the full flavor of the bread and the glaze! My favorite donut flavor is maple, and this is one of 3 donut shops that gets it right! You're not overwhelmed with sugar or oil, it's not generic "candy". You get the full maple donut experience. I love small local spots like this and hope to go back.“
“Knead Coffee is a gem that goes beyond just brewing your standard cup of joe. The Vietnamese coffee here is a revelation - strong, yet impeccably balanced with a smooth sweetness that energizes your day. Paired with their delicious donuts, which strike the perfect note of sweetness and texture, it's a match made in heaven for any coffee lover with a sweet tooth. But what truly sets Knead Coffee apart is the service. The staff are not just friendly, but genuinely amazing, creating an inviting atmosphere that makes you want to linger longer than you planned. Each visit is a delightful experience, thanks to the dedication and warmth of the team. For anyone in search of great coffee, scrumptious treats, and outstanding service, Knead Coffee is the spot.“
“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.“

“Great food and drinks here! Never gone wrong with the crawfish scampi fries. Parking can be a hassle on a busy night but I gotta get my fix still! Minus one star because one of the male employees always looks annoyed when talking to patrons. Noticed it a few times before but this time when I walked into the store (only customer there), I said excuse me to him because I was standing there for two minutes so he obviously didn't notice me, which was fine of course, but he gave me this head shake which really threw me off this time around. Hopefully this pattern improves over time as I really like this place.“
“Absolutely love this boba shop! It's my go-to spot, and I can't get enough of their Monster boba—it's my favorite. The best part is being able to customize the sweetness level to my liking. They offer an extensive selection of bobas and teas, so there's always something new to try. Highly recommend!“
“MY FAVORITE SMOOTHIE SPOT IN LONG BEACH. I have tried so many different smoothie places in LB, and this one is my favorite for SURE! The maca matcha smoothie is my go to bc the matcha flavor is authentic and not too earthy or bitter and has the perfect sweetness for my liking AND it has protein. The service is always super helpful and patient. The açaí bowls are also super delicious and there are so many toppings, you truly can't go wrong!“
“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.“
“Drinks : 10/10, I love sunright and their drinks! This my first time at this location and I'm glad I discovered it. It's a lot closer to me than the other locations. I got the grapefruit jasmine tea and it was SUPER refreshing! If you love grapefruit, get this! I also got the crème brulee boba milk with pudding and that was also a 10/10! Service : fast, friendly, and efficient. Ambiance : big space inside to wait! Decorated very modern and cute! Lots of photo ops!“

“Dropped in for an acai bowl and couldn't believe I didn't try this place sooner. Inside is just like any smoothie bar - a couple chairs and some outlets. The service was nice and quick, and I definitely want to come back for the savory options.“
“I wish I would have taken a picture, but the other pictures I have seen in the reviews are accurate. My husband and I both got a bowl. He got one with açaí and I got one with pitaya as a base. The fruit is fresh and we loved that you create your own bowl. Staff was so sweet!We will be back!“
“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.“
“Parking: 8/10. It's in a busy plaza so parking can be crowded. However, it's on the left side of the plaza (when entering) that's usually more vacant. Drinks: this is the go to place for all variations of Rau ma drinks! They used to have a delicious durian smoothie but it's not available anymore. Aside from their smoothies and rau ma, their other drinks are okay. Ambiance: workers are nice and I love that you can order online. There are a good amount of seatings.“
“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!“
“The coffee was STRONG but delicious! I love that they open before 11 am and that their coffee is served piping hot. The ambiance was serene with plenty of seating. I ordered the creme brûlée cheesecake slice and it was leagues better than what I expected! I am not a cheesecake fan but will go out of my way to get this again. Overall, a great place to get your day started. Service was great, really nice people! Will be back again soon ☕️“
“This spot has been on my list to try for a while now and I was so glad that I finally got the chance to stop by! Podong is a uniquely Korean inspired boba shop with some of the most interesting drink concoctions. This spot is located in a plaza with a good amount of parking spots and you can find it next to the Gold's gym. Once you walk in, you'll be greeted by a modern nostalgic street style type of interior. They do a great job of juxtaposing nostalgic and retro themes with modern and streetwear ones. As for their drinks, they have such a variety to choose from. Wifey and I opted for the Korean pear slush and the injeolmi slush and both were super refreshing with flavors uniquely Korean. The staff here are awesome and very friendly. We will definitely be back to try their other drinks next time we're in the area!“
“04.02.2024 - Anniversary breakfast for my Mom & Dad at @aloha.stacks I've been here before, but it was their first time here, and they enjoyed every bite! We had no leftovers to take home. From left right: *Iced Coffee *Ube Coconut Pancakes *Hamburger Patty Loco Moco *Kids Cheese Omelet with Fruit *Kalua Pork Omlette with Potatoes I must say, the Ube Coconut Pancakes were actually good and not overly sweet. They were pretty light and fluffy, too! I'd recommend it! You can't go wrong with Loco Moco. I couldn't quite decide what to eat so I went with a dish, I already know I'll like. They have different options of protein that you can choose from, too! My Dad said the Kalua Pork omlette was very filling. It was actually jammed pack with Kalua Pork. My daughter likes egg and cheese, so that was a win for her. I highly recommend this spot, especially if you're looking for that good hawaiian meal. Keep in mind, their hours of operation is only from 6:30 a.m.-2:00 p.m. There's a good amount of seating area inside, but it does get busy. The earlier, the better. Also, you order your food first at the counter and then find a table.“

“I've been coming here for years. I have an aunt that lives nearby so I always treat myself to a lil biónico whenever I'm on this side of town or a large green juice with ginger when I'm in my healthy era lol. Staff is very friendly and can make anything for you as long as they have it. They also have a bunch of snacks you can only get in Mexico. So nice to see a local Mexican spot thriving. Check them out“
“I stopped in here for the first time today. The lady behind the counter was so darn sweet and friendly. I ended up getting a small (which is big) Pina colada and a ginger shot on the side. I am telling you, it was the best smoothie I ever had hands down. I will definitely be back to try those jalapeño nachos.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair ramp when you walk in the store. However, they are moving. I won’t be sure if it’s there at the new place.“
