    cars parked in a parking lot
    Trung H.

    2.5 stars Came by to have some coffee after our lunch today. Parking: plenty available spots when we came by around 3 PM today. Line: no, so we got out table right after we walked into. There were a lot of folks smoking inside which was tough for non-smokers like us. They should not smoke inside thou... We ordered 'Iced Coffee with condensed milk'. The coffee tasted horrible, and it was served in a tiny glass full of mostly ice cubes. I only could sip a little bit, then left it there until we walked out. Price: too expensive for a horrible coffee.

    The first time I ever came to Tropical Smoothie Cafe, I swore I would never come back. That's…read morehonestly how gross I thought the smoothies were. I tried again a couple of years later... same feeling. Nothing stood out. Fast-forward to when my fiancé was working and coaching at Fountain Valley High School, & I was always in the area, always at the school with him, so I gave it another chance purely out of convenience. Again, the smoothies were just mediocre. I even tried a breakfast wrap (which I had zero interest in) and a salad, and neither were anything that made me want to return. Then one morning, running late before work, this location was literally my last drive thru option before turning into my work parking lot. On a whim, I ordered a Bahama Mama bowl... and they accidentally gave me a Bahama Mama smoothie instead. BEST. ACCIDENT. EVER. That smoothie completely changed my mind. It is now my go to order, and I've never switched it up since. I also tried their chicken Caesar salad wrap, and WOW!!!! it's genuinely one of my favorite wraps to this day. I now go out of my way just to come here for that wrap alone. I've tried a few other items like the three cheese chicken quesadilla it's okay, definitely more kid friendly. If you have an adult palate, it might feel a little underwhelming for the price. That said, all sandwiches, salads, wraps, and flatbreads come with a side (chips or fruit), which is always nice. Customer service here is 10/10, the inside is clean, the drive thru is quick, & their rewards program is awesome. I'm genuinely so glad I kept coming back despite my earlier experiences. Once you know what to order, it'll keep you coming back for more. Highly, highly recommend.

    I'm gonna honest with you, I've never lied to you before…read more Whenever I need a smoothie, do I think Jamba Juice? No I don't, I think of this spot. I think, I want a MASSIVE PORTION of fruit and protein, and I want it fast. An energy boost that says "yeah I eat fruits and consider myself an average produce consumer" Would it help me out more if I ate fruits whole more regularly? Sure. Would I probably benefit to consume more Vitamin filled produce. Sure again. This place makes it that much easier to consume massive amounts of necessary nutrients, for a relatively affordable price. Sub 10 bucks? Yessir have I EVER had a smoothie that was tropically spectacular? No, not yet. But is this a fix that works for what I need for now? Most definitely This gets a 3 star cuz honestly This is a place. And it has smoothie. Just matter of fact. Is it anything special? I wouldn't say so, but it gets the job done. Im content with that.

I was intrigued when I saw they specialize in pennywort drinks, which you don't come across often. I went with the P2 for a more traditional take, while my friend ordered the #4, their most popular drink. It's a beautifully layered mix of pennywort juice, taro and ube, coconut milk, pandan jelly, and chia seed jelly. Both drinks were impressive. Clean flavors, not overly sweet, and very ingredient-forward. The textures in the #4 especially made it stand out. Service was efficient and welcoming. Pricing leans higher, but the quality and uniqueness justify it. Definitely a spot I'd return to.

It's a solid Vietnamese dessert spot. I ordered the PJ mix coconut Milk pandan jelly one and I thought it was okayyy, it was a really grassy. Would probably take me a while for me to get acquired to it but I give props to people who drink this, I'm sure its on the healthier side. My buddy got the Iced Tofu Brown Sugar Moon ball and this was great. Perfect sweetness for me and I really liked the custard ball sitting on the drink. I kind've broke it up and mixed it around to get that pudding/custard. If you don't like that grassy taste or haven't had a drink similar to theirs, I would go with this one!

The girl inside refused to add coconut to my order . Stating over and over again creating a scene that she couldn't add it due to me exiting the front door. Completely uncalled for... and has me re thinking ever coming here again. She could have gave it to me in a separate container. But insisted she now will have to charge me for it now. Even though it came with my bowl originally. As a business owner in the area. This is completely uncalled for upsetting a good customer for nothing, and standing her ground allowing me to leave upset.. This just so happened to w no other customers in the store. Had there been people in there they would have had to whitness this. Not a good look. 12:38pm Thursday
