    Wow! I have always seen this place but never went into it until today. It did not disappoint. They have everything you can think of. I purchased a soup and salad meal and I got the tuna sandwich and lentil soup. The soup is so yummy. The atmosphere is nice and open. We ate outside and loved the ambiance. We got lucky and came when we did because it all of sudden became really busy. They also service breakfast, lunch and salads and smoothies and tea. Will be back

    Went here twice but ordered the same item- Hi Fresh which is a watermelon and cucumber juice. A VERY refreshing drink after a day at the beach. Both times there was no one at the register so I had to wait a while , evening after ringing the bell. But the juice is redeeming.

    This is one of my favorite hidden gems in National City. Their aguachile is top tier. I loved to PA and I miss this place so much

    Chicken, apple salad, and smoothie

    We stumbled upon this place and we're pleasantly surprised. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious and reasonably priced. The surface was friendly in the atmosphere was enjoyable and clean. The smoothie was delicious along with the chicken apple salad! A fabulous healthy alternative

    I love their green juice. It's so good and healthy. The blended one is good too but it's too thick for me. Highly recommend their green juice!

    Service is okay. I have came back several times because I live nearby, I recommend their smoothies and acai bowls you cant go wrong with those. Gave their sandwiches a try twice 2 different visits and only had a couple bites each time, I was not satisfied.

    This is the third Fresheria location I've been to now and even though it's not the best of all three, it was still really great. I loved my chicken wrap and that the woman who took my order allowed me to get it without cheese and chipotle sauce. She also accommodated my requests to order my blue kale smoothie with vanilla protein and coconut water instead of whole milk. I will say, the smoothie had a bit of an odd texture and consistency. That is most likely because I made some alterations to it, though. It separated a bit and was more like a juice than a smoothie. It still tasted very good and was an extremely refreshing drink. The service was again great because despite being pretty busy, they were able to make our food in only about ten minutes. Definitely one to try some day!

    Oatmeal Pancakes
    Paige K.

    Overall this was a tasty meal. I ordered from DoorDash for breakfast. I got the egg white omelette with no cheese and the oatmeal pancakes. The omelette was a good size and packed full of veggies which was great. It did however come with this bland stale bread which I didn't even bother to eat. Luckily I got the oatmeal pancakes on the side! They were definitely dense... but pretty good for a healthier version. Two complaints - on DoorDash you chose your fruit topping and I selected apple, which I assumed would be sautéed apples but no... it was just a slab of raw apple which would be very weird to eat with pancakes. So that was useless but I did eat the strawberries which came on it. The only other disappointment was they promote healthy eating and give a healthy pancake option but then provide smuckers syrup on the side which is basically corn syrup. Come on fresheria, you can do real syrup!! But all in all I would get both again!

    Tried the cheesesteak torta and it was tasty. It took a while for it to arrive since I ordered it via ubereats and it was still pretty good. This is the first time trying anything from this location as I usually hit the one off Beyer Blvd down south. Fresheria has a variety of healthy options and their detox smoothie is always hitting, especially after a bender ;).

    Very Bery Smoothie large

    Plenty of seating but getting our food took forever even though there weren't many people in front of us. It seemed like people kept getting their food before us. We got a chicken torta (delish), very berry smoothie (pretty good), and strawberry banana smoothie (not great). The torta was big and flavorful so exceeded my expectations the strawberry banana smoothie was just super icy and bland. The color was super light and h could barely taste the strawberry or banana for that matter and that's hard to do because banana is cheap and gas pretty strong flavor on it own. I expected way more from an $8 smoothie.

    Grabbed lunch in the area. My husband found this place hunting down a hearty food option in southeast San Diego. There aren't too many in this area. Parking was great. They have a huge lot. Lots of outside and inside seating. I got the chicken sandwich with a side salad. It was fresh chicken was well seasoned. We also got juice that was freshly made very tasty. Service was very good. Food came out quick. Will Be back to support.

    Acai bowl
    Megan M.

    Come here often for acai bowls! I ordered on app and still had to wait a few mins. They are always busy. Acai bowl hit the spot.

    Mango chicken bowl

    Absolutely Love finding a healthy cute place to eat. This place was busy when I arrived, busy with to go orders as well. I noticed they keep up well with all the orders. I ordered horchata latte, chicken pesto sandwich that came along with a salad and a mango chicken Bowl. Great price , great food great service I will be back.

We came in for lunch on Friday and had the flatbread and sandwich. Both were amazing! The server was wonderful. She really went above and beyond to make our lunch great.

We came back this morning and had the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had. Much harder to find a seat or parking on the weekend but worth it.

The ONLY reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 (and I'm usually a 5-star/1-star girlie) is that we haven't seen Cari, one of our favorite servers, in either of our last couple of visits. Over a year ago now, Cari stepped UP when I became faint and almost passed out on Nate's front deck. It was a hot day, I am BAD at drinking water but great at sweating; and as I stood up, I turned paper white and the world got fuzzy. Cari swooped in the moment she saw what was happening - making sure I was safely lying down, getting me hand sanitizer for my forehead and a wet cloth for the back of my neck (rapid cooling!), and orange juice for my fluid imbalance. I'm so SO glad Cari was there to take better care of me than I take of myself. I miss our nerdy conversations, and hope she'll be back soon!
