Juice Generation is one of those places you can't miss - you know what you're going to get and the…read morequality is decent. I decided to check out this location while walking nearby. The storefront on 9th avenue is very small with very limited seating but the vibes are great. The staff is helpful in letting me know what the menu has to offer. The fresh pressed juices are good and I love how the smoothies don't have any added sugar. Something else to note is that they do have food options - they're limited but there's still a decent chunk to choose from. Plus they come with protein too. I liked how my bowl had all the fixings and the pastry was "guilt-free" The prices are a bit hefty but for fresh juice and a yummy sweet treat, I'd be back for more.

No, not…read morereally but that's fine. - i'm OK with the false advertising because it was super tasty and blended perfectly. No weird chunks or icy slushy vibes. - this is the rise and grind that has chocolate protein powder, almond milk, açai, cocoa powder, a banana and some random roots lol - despite the ingredients it was so nutty. I think it was the combination of the banana and chocolate. It was delicious. The little fruity sips I would get of the açai paired perfectly with the more savory dense banana and chocolate base. - the prices aren't horrific but I don't love that there is just one size. Like 13 dollars for a smoothie with protein - the service was speedy!

Bowls come with a base that I can best describe as a thick smoothie while all the other ingredients are placed on top. I found this to be very filling when paired with protein smoothie I was actually very full without that feeling like I eat too much of a good thing. There's many of these types of açaí bowl locations popping up around the city but this location has more options that just açaí like banana, coconut or green.

We went in for a cold refreshing smoothie and a restroom break on our walk to Times Square. There…read moreis only 1 restroom, and I had to wait 20+ minutes for it to be vacant (no biggie). My husband ordered a drink and received it before I could have my turn, so service was quick. I asked my husband what he thought of the smoothie and he gave a face a disapproval, so I took a drink. We had a mango smoothie and the flavor was very off. The flavor was similar to a mango seeds being shaved down to their bare selves and steeped in water. So I asked the cashier if we could have something else. She said "I would only be able to make you a new drink that you have to pay for...." This was very irritating. I stood there mind boggles because we had just paid, almost $15 for a drink we didn't like and they refused to make it right. Then, she offered to "add a banana or pineapple," which I'm sure would have had to been paid for by us. We asked our teenager to try it, and he also didn't like it, so We ended up trashing it. They have a "REFUND Policy" posted at the cashiers area, so I'm sure this is a frequent occurrence. Unfortunately, that did not try to make it right for us, as stated in their policy. Needless to say, I won't be returning, nor will I recommend this place. Don't waste your money, instead find the Naked Cowboy (a famous street performer) and give your money to him, this way there will be no disappointment.

I ordered a Pink Dragon with oat milk instead of the default almond milk and slurped it down with a mighty passion. Loved every sip! My boyfriend wanted coffee (which they don't offer), so he didn't get anything. But the staff made him a little sample of my drink, which was so lovely of them. The space was brightly lit and very clean. They also have a self-serve water dispenser with mint leaves in it for a little something special. A great option for something tasty and healthy that feels like a treat!

~ Hiii, and Happy 4th of July ~…read more I had a wonderful and unexpected experience this morning! I was just walking down the street, and lo and behold: A beautiful smoothie shop opened up today. I was intrigued by their sign, and walked right in. They are making 2.00 smoothies (hello!!! those were the prices in 1776), to celebrate their opening -- both today and TOMORROW, friends. They're located on the side south of W. 47th Street (between 8th and 9th Avenues). Highly recommend, y'all. As you'll be able to tell from my photos, it's such a lovely and cozy spot. Love the elegant design. And the ladies who work there are warm and welcoming; they also make an amazing smoothie! Over a decade ago, I used to supervise at a healthy, vegan food chain called Organic Avenue. (Does anyone still remember it??) And I can tell you that making a smoothie isn't actually so easy. Sure, it looks easy, but making sure that it's equal parts sweet and not-so-sweet is an art form. These smoothies were just that -- tasty without being overbearing and nourishing sans giving "health food store circa 1987." LOL Somehow, these ladies did the thing well and struck that balance. All three of the smoothies that my spouse and I got to enjoy were also an ideal texture...substantial but not too thick and chunky. Brava! Welcome to Hell's Kitchen, Mixe. We appreciate y'all bringing some smoothie heaven here. : ) To your health, Kat PS They are offering ONE type of smoothie for 2.00 ~ the Soleil Bleu one, which is yummy and banana-based. Enjoy!
