“We wanted açaí bowls and found some really fun treats here. I loved that they had some great toppings: pollen, hemp seeds, ashwaganda, chia, etc.

My preference is less sweet, and it tasted like the açaí was sweetened as well as the granola… so that’s why 4 stars for me instead of 5. If you like sweet… you’ll love it.

We also wanted a green drink and the number of green ingredients was a little limited.

Loved the service! They have indoor and outdoor tables.“

“Walking up to this juicery for the first time I was very curious.
Upon entering I noticed that the staff was very friendly and welcoming as well as the environment. There were many choices and options on the menu. When I got my order it was a very good size portion and had plenty of flavor. I thoroughly enjoyed the PB&J bowl! As well as the Acai bowl!“

“Great food, friendly staff, great selection of adult beverages. Butcher shops.“

“I love the coffee here!! 🤤“

“The best juice in the world. Truly the best sugar cane juice I’ve ever had even in a tropical country! It’s grown right here in San Diego, and it’s the sweetest and freshest ever!
Plus if you didn’t know sugar cane juice is so healthy and healing, don’t be afraid of the sugar and go get yourself some nectar of the gods, pure liquid gold, natures Gatorade, pure magic ?“

“My new favorite sandwich place! Everything I’ve tried here is phenomenal. Loved the Baked Brie! I fully recommend this place to everyone. Just amazing!“

“Delicious, light refreshing drinks that are not overly sweet like most places. Also the gal who was giving samples, who else rang me up, was kind and friendly with a positive attitude. Looking forward to coming back and trying a different drink next time! Had the iced hibiscus tea one today and it was so yummy! Didn’t have to ask for half/less sweet. Great place!“

“Love Nekter Carlsbad, every time I am Bressi Ranch I stop here !!“

“Carlos, the owner, was our host and was playing some very cool/hip music which we loved. He introduced himself and told us all about this new venture for him and his partner and wife. The smoothie I got was delicious (mango) and so was the one my wife got (coconut). Make sure to stop by and have some samples and then pick the one you like best. Que Dios Los bendiga! And why not…it’s JC….“

“Best Juice in town. I usually go in a couple of times a week to get the V6. It has beets, apples, carrots, and celery. I usually add an orange to it also. Makes me feel energized and clean. They also have a pretty tasty Acai bowl with granola and peanut butter. Very accommodating if you have allergies. Has been in business almost 20 years with the same owner. You have to give them a shot. Every couple of weeks, I do the 3 day cleanse. If I'm feeling brave, I do the 6 day cleanse. My girlfriend likes the raspberry smoothie.

Vegetarian options: Clean juices with just veggies.

Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating if you have allergies or dietary restrictions.

Parking: Very easy to park.“

“The young ladies that are usually working there are quite friendly and always make our orders perfectly. The smoothies and bowls are excellent and if you can’t find something for you on their menu then you probably can’t find anything anywhere! The shop is usually clean and tidy, which, in addition to the food/drink, makes it a nice place to hang, which my son and I will usually do when we get one of their bowls. Our favorite smoothie shop, hands down.“

“Love their acai bowls with strawberries, blueberries, bananas, granolas,honey and I added peanut butter cause I love peanut butter! Went two days in a row and will keep on coming back!“

“The acai bowl was delicious and the customer was kind and caring.“

“Cute tea shop in Del Mar strip mall. It was busy when I arrived (good sign). I got a black jade milk tea omomo style with tiramisu foam and brown sugar boba. It was $8 and delicious. There's no place to sit inside or out but I found tables just down the sidewalk.“

“I had the acai super berry bowl. Now, first things first, it IS pricey ($14.95!), BUT it is huge! Acts as a full meal or share it w someone. The best parts: it’s consistent (I had it 4 days in a row while visiting Del Mar), and you can add protein powder (I added whey), which a lot places don’t accommodate. The granola that comes w it is just the right amount and is super tasty - Total homerun!“

“I am sad I only got to try one thing from this place. It was so difficult to decide what I wanted, but I ended up ordering their strawberry smooth with a drizzle of their homemade nutella around the cup. It was heavenly. 😍 Seriously though, this place makes their own everything, their own oat and almond milk, their own nut butters, their own granola, and even their own protein powder. I was seriously impressed. They have meals, desserts, and snacks too. I really wish I had a location close by.“

“The best Boba in San Diego! Their milk tea is my son’s fav!
Teaspoon in Carlsbad is a woman-owned small business so supporting them is a pleasure! The owner, Irene, is so kind, fun and generous!
Looking forward to visiting your beautiful spot again soon!“

“For the first time, I ordered a one-night comprehensive bowlThere are strawberries and blueberries in the pictureIt turns out there are only bananas? ?Maybe you have to add some yourself or somethingI am not very sureBut just saying this bowl is deliciousThe taste of Açaí is amazing. It’s the first time I tasted it. I heard it’s acai berrySummary: Good place to eat ice but want to be healthy“

“I don't usually leave such long reviews, but this place is probably my favorite place in San Diego County.

My wife and I have been to Jeff's Burgers only half a dozen times and it's always feels like such a special occasion (only because we don't live very close by). If we lived in the area I swear this would be my weekend tradition. The menu is simple, but not boring. The staff is working their butts off, but still always so friendly. And the food is always a knock out of the park.

On our most recent visit, October 19 2024, it was a fairly busy time of day. Late lunch, around 2:30pm. Every seat was taken and there was a line out the door, but no one was impatient, these burgers are known to be worth the wait. The woman at the register (who I learned later was the General Manager, Marina) was helping the little boy in front of us decide how he liked his burger. With or without onions? pickles? etc. She was never pushy and let him take his time figuring out how he liked his food. She cared, in a way that was so loving, to make sure he was going to have a meal he enjoyed. With every interaction she prioritized the customer's experience of the establishment and the food over everything else. In between customers she assured everyone waiting in line that she appreciated our patience and that she would help us soon. When it was time to take our order she was the sweetest thing.

When she asked for my name so that they could call it out when our order was ready she had a great reaction to me saying "Jeff", because of the likeness to the restaurant's name. We all agreed that she should take my wife's name (Selina) down instead because it was more fun to say. She even spelled it right on the first try, which is uncommon, and she credited it to French being her native language and that is how it is commonly spelled in French.

We got seated outside on their little patio, which is small but cute. I will say that initially their seating area can seem cramped and leave you wishing for a little more elbow room, but I have found that it forces you to interact with the folks sitting around you in a way that feels kind of nice. When you are sitting outside, in a beach town, under a pink umbrella, and you need to ask your neighbor to excuse you are you squeeze by with a chocolate milkshake in one hand and a box of burgers in the next, no one can be grumpy or upset. Every single customer here is always in a good mood, and it is noticeable.
This place is just pure joy.

When my wife's name was called out the Manager handed my our food and I insisted on getting her name. Her name is Marina Zablit. When I met her I assumed she must own the place based on the love and care she was putting in to every action and word that came out of her mouth.
I don't know is she is a mother, but she has that community "mom" energy that just makes you feel at home.

This restaurant cooks all of the orders on one flat top grill, and everything is cooked to order with perfection. Their burgers come out hot and ready. Their milkshakes are real home-made milkshakes, like you dream about from when you were a kid. The fries are real, none of that frozen processed junk that doesn't even taste like a potato anymore.

I am leaving such a long review because I know what it is like to watch a little town lose it's soul to big business. I am a third generation Encinitas beach town local. My family moved here in the early 1940s. My family has watched these local towns lose their little Mom and Pop shops, and lose their very soul to corporations tourism.

But somehow, places like Jeff's Burgers and nestled in there still. Still keeping the local soul alive. Still cranking out the best this town has to offer.
It's not just food, it is the whole package.

I am counting the days until my next visit, and y“

“Yummy chicken sandwich and cinnamon roll!! Wish you were in Colorado as well!! 😍“

“The best authentic Vietnamese"banh mi" in Southern California. I live in LA, but every time I travel to San Diego, Paris Bakery is always my first place to visit. They have a variety type of Banh mi with reasonable price, their tastes are always delicious.“

“Jamba Juice makes the whole concept of being @ UCSD of all places kind of magical. Situated within the modern design of the Price Center student quad where you walk down to the lower level. Given that the entire campus is new and forever improving and tastefully expanding is exciting! Makes me really happy to be here where the campus sparks imagination and where it's basically summer year round: the perfect weather condition for drinking Jamba Juice.I like the greens n ginger smoothie; it's enough to give me energy for the entire day.I've only had the positive experience of friendly people helping out with keeping Jamba Juice operational at this location.“

“We have been looking for a place that served tasty Acai Bowls…Our favorite Acai bowl places either, closed down, burned down or changed the way they made their Acai bowls…We found Liquid Bean Café on the internet and decided to give it a try…Well, we both had the Acai bowls but I added an Egg Salad Sandwich pressed in a Panini press to our order…The Acai Bowls were fresh and totally delicious!!!…I really liked the Egg Salad Sandwich and loved the way it was pressed and toasted in the Panini press…We highly recommend Liquid Bean Café if you are ever in the Del Mar area…We will definitely be back again!!!…Five Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

Dietary restrictions: Great for dairy free, gluten free and refined sugar free“

“My family and I love Juice Stop Encinitas and have been enjoying smoothies from here regularly for many years. This is a wonderful family run business and we enjoy visiting with the owner Nalini as she is often there and serving us. We love her Green Dream and Ollie smoothies, to name a couple of our favorites. Thank you for being our go to smoothie place!“

“I love the drink and shots too. yummy.“

“What a wonderful hidden gem! We got açaí bowls, the breakfast sandwich, bagel and the Mexican coffee and horchata iced coffee and everything was soooo good. My faves were the Mexican coffee and sandwich. The owner was very nice and informative on where to park, Sights to see, etc. highly recommend!“

“I’m a rode biker and I ride all over San Diego but I never miss my weekly stop for a quick mocha to help me make it up another hill. Miriam and Q treat me like family. So glad that I found this little paradise in Sorrento Valley.“

“Although a little pricey (but what do you expect) they were overall very good. The detoxify drink is great if you like ginger and the protein bowl is amazing but the green drink left my comrade with a bitter taste in his mouth lol. Side note: it can begin to grow on you if you remind yourself that you are doing something special for your body... (and can get past the initial shock of the taste). Thanks for the experience ?“

“When I went to tea monks 2 weeks ago I decided to try something different. When asking the Employee Lex he gave me a variety of drink recommendations and explained how it tasted. I decided to get the tiger milk tea Lex told me it tasted like a caramel milk shake, It did taste like a caramel milkshake and I was pleased with the costumer Service.“

“Can't go wrong with the Dutch baby and a side of BACON!!!!!!!!“

“Absolutely love the açai bowl here! The overall freshness of the fruits and the açai is amazing

Açai bowl: I love them these guys make them superb! I got a few extras like Nutella and it felt like they add in a generous amount! Any topping paid or not paid for is added generously and you can customise this as you’d like!

Service: The first time I went there was a board with we will be right back and then I went in another fifteen mins and they were up and running. It seems the staff was having their lunch but they were super quick and available again in fifteen mins! The lady who prepped my bowl is super duper sweet and friendly and very friendly.

Ambience: Nothing much like ambience as it’s a small kiosk like space but there are chairs and tables nearby and quite a few of them and hence great place to sit outside“

“I absolutely love this Jamba Juice location! Every time I walk in, I’m greeted with smiles and incredible service. Mo, the manager, is a gem! She’s the friendliest, most outgoing, and kindest person you could ever meet. Mo goes above and beyond to make sure every customer feels valued and leaves with not just a great smoothie but a great experience.

The staff here is fantastic, and you can tell Mo leads by example with her positive attitude and attention to detail. The store is always clean, service is quick, and the smoothies are consistently delicious. If you’re looking for a great Jamba Juice experience, Palomar Commons is the place to go!

“Wonderful place with excellent service, only wish they would get licorice ice cream . Yummy“

“Great job on the food but please give dine-in customers a plastic free option. There is no reason to be serving people eating in your restaurant with single use plastic spoons and plastic bowls. The oceans are filled with single use plastic, no need to contribute to that with dine-in customers that could be served with silverware and bowls.“
