I came in today and was greeted by the owner who lives in Austin. The girl at the front counter is always super nice. They were celebrating their 10-year anniversary and gave me two T-shirts. The quality of these smoothies can't be beat by anyone in town. You pay a little bit more but you get what you pay for.

28 minutes waiting for one smoothie. Still waiting as I write this. No one else is in here.

Went in 2 days ago on a whim because I was in the area and enjoy pressed juices from time to time. Very cute little spot. They were out of a few options however I did go in a little after breakfast rush so that may have been why. No big deal. I didn't see a menu board with pricing but I was in a bit of a rush so it's possible I completely missed that. Juice was overpriced in my opinion, but tasted fresh

I didn't have super high hopes, as I've never been crazy about the idea of a bottled smoothie. I was thirsty, though, and I wanted to try something new. Boy, was this drink a pleasant surprise!! Absolutely divine combination of flavors; it tasted like a dessert. Blueberry crumble in a bottle. There was cinnamon in there, and the richness of almond butter and coconut cream, and the blueberry flavor really came through. Thank you for not adding bananas. They dominate the taste of any smoothie. Also, thank you for making it sweet enough. So many juice and smoothie places don't add sweetener beyond the fruit itself, and it comes out so bland. Anyway, this heavenly beverage was 9 dollars, 10 with tax. It will have to be an infrequent treat, but I will certainly get it again. The workers are nice and welcoming. The place itself is quite small, so not really conducive to hanging out and eating, but I live around the corner so it's not a problem for me.

Delicious food and friendly staff. Good vibes here. I can here twice recently. Once for a juice and the next day for breakfast tacos and a smoothie. Yummy!

I love the juice cleanses. Expensive but always feels great afterwards. The vegan food is also solid! I love the truffle oil and mushroom pasta.

My favorite healthy fuel in New Orleans. I’ve used their juice cleanses a couple times and always feel good about the products they make there.

This is a pretty good place to go get fresh pressed juices if you're on the go or traveling. BUT they are a bit pricey, I personally don't think the juices that I got were worth the hefty price tag, they lacked depth and intensity - they tasted watered down.

TRUFFLE MAC & CHEESE This palate pleasing thoughtfully created concoction is a rollercoaster ride of salty, creamy, crunchy, & cooling fun in your mouth that is over far too soon. My only disappointment is that the online menu & the actual in store container list of ingredients varies. I do not eat nutritional yeast & it is listed on the food container I purchased but not on the online menu. 5/10. INGREDIENTS: Kelp noodles, cashews, black truffle salt, nutritional yeast*, cremini mushroom crumble, parsley, & black pepper. *The employee confirmed it is in fact an ingredient today when I visited again. x FIRESTARTER This is a nice ratio of an immediate flaming hot root & pepper burst that is accompanied by refreshing, soothing, cooling dual citrus juices. 9.5/10. INGREDIENTS: Orange, ginger, lemon, & cayenne. x SALTED CACAO BROWNIES These brownies are not gooey or in any way sweet.. I find them to instead to be a bit dry & bland. Would highly recommend pairing these w/ a fruity nut milk/shake to add depth of flavor & balance of texture, along w/ hydration to avoid a dry mouth. 4.5/10. xx INGREDIENTS: Cashews, almonds, cacao, mesquite, lucuma, coconut sugar, maple syrup, coconut oil, psyllium husks, & sea salt. x DR. CARTER'S THYROID JUICE I would call this almost airy & fluffy like a cloud; A subtle, light pineapple taste w/ the aloe & the coconut water muting the sweetness. The ginger & the rosemary are both too unnoticeable to add any real depth to the taste. 8/10. xx x COCONUT WATER Compared to Harmest Harvest which is my daily coconut water, this variety is more nutty & sweet in which is a bit more fresh tasting, exotic, & unique. I do think I tasted the plastic bottle a bit in the flavor unfortunately though. 9.5/10. xx INGREDIENTS: Raw, organic young Thai coconut water.

Yay! I was really hoping I could write another amazing review about this place. I just placed an order on Uber eats. You know an establishment is 100 when you place an order on Uber eats and you have one of the employees of the place you're ordering from (In my case it was Shelby-shout out to Shelby) Gives you a personal call to clarify your order- making sure they have it just right- along with letting you in on what buttons to press to help you out next time. Raw Republic, you will continue to have my business!

This review is about the acai bowls specifically. I ordered four in the last week, and they are inconsistent. Two were good, and in the other two the acai mix had no flavor - it was watery and tasteless. We stopped eating acai bowls here a couple years ago for the same reason, but thought we'd try again. It's the same inconsistency - you never know what you're going to get. They are the most expensive açaí bowls in town and they need to get their mix right each time.
