“Goodness how I love Tropical Smoothie. This is fantastic to get your smoothie/slushie fix without feeling like a big jerk about it, either. I have tried a few summer favorites, Watermelon Mojito, a guava smoothie of amazingness, and I think the Strawberry Daiquiri. I have tried many more smoothies, but I don't know, I love them all. This location is great, everyone is friendly and greets you, you get your drink quick, and you're out. I feel like you get 100 ounces of smoothie! You don't, but that's how large it feels, and I love it. It's a great meal replacement when you're on the go, too. I know smoothies are more of a warm weather thing, but they do have food, which act more like lunch options. There's something for everyone, which is nice.“

“The owners deliver pure magic to both children and adults alike! It truly is a happy place, you can feel it as soon as you walk in. The Peach smoothie was excellent and I look forward to trying more, there were many sorbets and ice cream flavors to choose from. The creations in ice cream that we received were works of art and joy. Highly recommended from a local parent’s social media group and delivered 100%! We will definitely work this into our routine. Pure joy. A Palatine treasure.“
“This place has become our regular spot — so many options and you can’t go wrong with any. Personal favorites are the Banana Espresso Cacao & PB “milkshake” and the fresh juices with cactus! So good and the vibe is amazing. Handmade intricate and beautiful artwork brightens the walls and are for sale!“
“The first time I ever went, I went with a few friends that recommended it to me. I usually don’t like milk tea, but kopa had a smoothie option that I absolutely loved. The boba was chewy but I liked it. When I went for the first time I got to write on the chalkboard and that was a happy experience for me being able to have someone read what I wrote and have a better day. Every time I get the chance to go, I go. This place gives me exceptional drinks that I absolutely love and good vibes whenever I go. I have never had a bad experience here and I would recommend this place to anyone I meet. The staff here have been so kind to me and will take full responsibility if my drink was made wrong. I love going here and would 10/10 guide someone to this amazing place.“
“It is great to find a vegan friendly restaurant so close to Elk Grove Village. Vegan shakes, chips, wraps, salads, desserts and cheesecake. Let me tell you what do the vegan chipotle in a spinach is my go to. Also great customer service.Vegetarian options: Clearly label vegan dishes“
“I stop by here often for lunch after my chiropractor visit next door. The place is so clean & the guy behind the counter (I'm assuming he's the owner) is always friendly. My favorites are the Cuban and even just a plain old chicken sandwich that is flavorful. Can't wait to eat here again soon.“
“This place was great. We stopped in this morning I had the green bowl & the Oreo donut. I have no idea how he got the bowl of the base so light & airy. Normally bowls are dense, it was not at all, I really enjoyed it. Husband got the peanut lovers shake. It was all so good. It was filling & satisfying. The setup is great, loved the post it note wall.The owner was super friendly & welcoming. He said he’d been in business one year, hope he has many more years of success. He has a great shop.Dietary restrictions: I’m soy & dairy intolerant & there were plenty of options on the menu for me to enjoy.“
“Food was very good. I ended up with chilaquiles (with chicken breast) and my friend got the pupusas and dobladas. Really solid, and I appreciate the subtle differences in flavors between the Guatamalan dishes and standard Mexican fare. However, only 4/5 because ordering (in English) was difficult. I tried to get grilled skirt steak and a green chicken enchilada (as a single item, listed that way on the menu) but what was originally brought out was 3 green chicken enchiladas. I explained the issue and thought it was clear but ended up getting brought the chilaquiles. My friend got his pupusas but the dobladas was not brought and had to be ordered again. The food was delicious and I'm not a picky eater so this wasn't a huge deal, but others that need to order a specific thing, in English, may have trouble. I will be back though, and I will brush up on my Spanish.“
“A bright, friendly environment for postlift quick shake/meal.All the menu options I've tried were delicious and you can't sleep on the waffles.Macronutrient conscious options across the whole menu.Friendly staff in a cozy space.The location is hard to see if you're not looking for it but if you are a gymrat or health enthusiast then this is a great place to grab a bite or drink.“
“Lots of cars in the parking lot so you know it's good!!! We had great service from Manny. I felt like getting something light today and didn't expect it to wow me. Ordered the healthy scrambler and it was full of flavor! Was so good and filling! My husband ordered the Latina skillet and thought it was rich and spicy! Generous portions!“
“Really appreciated the fact that the food is freshly prepared and comes out piping hot. The fries were really good, nicely seasoned and not greasy at all, actually a bit crunchy to perfection. The chicken sandwich and burger we ordered were really nicely flavored. Overall a nice lunch place when craving burger or chicken sandwich with a bit of a kick. We didn't try any drink so can't comment on the bobas they did look nice though.“
“I've visited this place a couple of times now, and it's become a favorite spot close to my house! The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. I particularly enjoyed the almond croissant--it was delicious! The beet revival was also refreshing and a unique twist. The staff provided excellent service, making the experience even more enjoyable.“
“Been doing here for the past few days and the smoothies are absolutely fire. Tastes all natural without having to worry about all the excess sugars other smoothie places use. The staff are also really friendly as well and ordering online is so easy.“
“I must say, the wait was totally worth it! Not only is the menu perfect, but the drinks are also superbly produced, and the atmosphere makes me want to hang out there all day!Prices were considerably lower than I had anticipated, which is GREAT considering the state of the economy right now. I adored the customer service, which was kind and welcoming. The dining space on the front patio was a pleasant addition because the weather was excellent outside as well.I recommend.“
“I cannot wait to go in person and eat. I was craving Pho and this was among the top I’ve had.I ordered the Pho Ga, we also had the shrimp and egg rolls.The Pho Ga chicken was so good my children were stealing it.Can’t wait to dine-in and try more of their great food.Yes, they are cash only, and yes, it is worth it. I would rather have delicious, affordable Pho than wait for a price hiked, GrubHub delivery of cold, mediocre Pho.“
“It's like I've wandered past this place since the beginning of time and never saw it! It's been here as long as the anchor stores like JCPenneys lol. Amazing drinks and fresh fruit, good stuff. I had the matcha ones, and it was phenomenal.“
“Yummy & healthy acai bowls & cute catered seasonal menu items to choose from! Always a friendly face willing to explain the options whenever I stop in. Love following them on all their socials to know when new things drop. Would def recommend to a friend looking for healthy alternatives in their area!“
“YoFruito has one of the freshest frozen yogurt you can find in the area. They have my favorite tangy plain frozen yogurt and all sort of yummy flavors and toppings! Also love their fruit freeze using real frozen fruits.Kid-friendliness: Toys and other things that can keep the kids entertained for free.“
“I have had a great experience since day one. Everything I have ordered has been great. Employees are super friendly. Workouts are awesome!Kid-friendliness: My daughter had the bubble waffle and she loves them! This is a lot healthier for her since she does dance she has to get her protein in. She loves all the girls that work there.“
“Smooth, creamy, with a bit of crunch and so decadent and healthy. Who said you can't have the best of two worlds?? It's definitely on the pricey side but it's in a popular part of Chicago so that's to be expected. I stopped by here after many runs I did during the 100 degrees weather weeks.. and the delicious smoothies were worth every sip! They can customize them to your liking if you want to swap out certain ingredients. Service was super friendly and recognized my sweaty face after my second visit which made me laugh. I especially loved the maca protein smoothie. Take my money.“
“Yummy smoothies and teas. They use Herbalife products for add ons ($2$ extra) I wish that was listed before you started adding in protein scoops etc. I also wish they told you about the combos when you order more than one drink…definitely didn’t mention it the first time there. it’s a very tasty and low key spot. Been back a few times and still good service and drinks!“
“Came here in the middle of the day during a weekday, so it was pretty empty. That also mean we got served very quickly. The store had a cute wall and seating along the wall, but no tables. So it might be a little awkward if you have a large group. The drinks were pretty good though, we got the brown sugar milk tea everything was decent. Definitely not the best boba I've had, but the pearls were decently chewy and the flavor was decently good. My friend enjoyed his smoothie as well. Overall a pretty solid boba place. I'd come back again.“
“The flatbread here is so delicious. If you need a quick snack or breakfast before hitting on the train or going somewhere, definitely check this place out. The fresh juice is refreshing and delicious. I can't wait to go back and try other items on their menu.“
Juice Bar & Smoothies • $
“I have visited this location multiple times and I am always greeted very well by the staff. I've tried the shakes and they are AMAZING!! It does not have a traditional protein powder taste that is bad, they are genuinely good! They have other options like coffees and teas that look great as well. The inside is well decorated and super cute. The only bad thing is their hours of operation are always changing so if you're planning on going, check out their Instagram to see what their hours that day is. Times listed on here are not accurate.“
“(Translated by Google) The best thing I can try out of so many, this alone has been the best congratulations to the people and the owners because without them the Michoacan would not have had the original flavor, congratulations. All tasty good atmosphere and attention(Original)Lo mejor que puedo probar de tantas solo esta ah sido la mejor felicitación alas personas y alos dueños por que sin ellos la michoacana no hubiera tenido el sabor orijinal felicidades. Todo sabroso buen ambiente y atención“

Their passion for the craft was evident, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the overall experience.Prices were reasonable considering the quality and craftsmanship of the ice cream, making it accessible to a broad spectrum of dessert enthusiasts. The generous portion sizes ensured that even the most voracious sweet tooth would leave satisfied.In conclusion, this ice cream parlor is a gem in the dessert landscape of the city. Whether you're a connoisseur seeking unique flavor combinations or a casual visitor craving a classic scoop, this establishment is sure to leave a lasting impression. I left with a contented palate, a satisfied sweet tooth, and the certainty that I had discovered a new favorite spot for indulging my love of ice cream.“
“The ice cream is fantastic, the only downside is the service is kind of mid. They sometimes take forever because they’re always understaffed but the food does not disappoint! They always are asking to tip on their computer though which is super annoying considering they just stare you down while you are on the machine. All the menu items are diverse and I prefer the marshmallow, strawberry banana, and strawberry chocolate ice cream!! Also all their teamonades are super good!!! I prefer raspberry, peach, and lychee. They also sometimes add the actual fruit and a lemon piece into the drinks. The ambiance is kind of meh, it’s a very bright atmosphere but with empty and big spacing around the seats. Sometimes when it’s busy there’s not enough space to even enjoy your treat, but I love the ice cream and drinks! “
“I love their health shots, juices, and juice cleanse! I grab their health shots about 2-3 times a week, and I’ve noticed a huge improvement in my health. I also just completed their green cleanse for the 3rd time over the past 2 years. Highly recommend their cleanse for anyone looking to rejuvenate, build immunity, and replenish the body!“
