I normally don't write reviews but this was such a good experience I had to!…read more I flew into San Diego yesterday morning for the very first time and decided to try out this juicery! The first thing I noticed was how clean and organized the tables were outside which was very much appreciated! When I walked inside, I was immediately greeted & was asked if I had any questions on the menu. I had some trouble deciding what I wanted and I asked Julian what he enjoyed. He gave me a couple options which included the Strawberry Glow, the Mint Chocolate Chip or the Muscle Mender. I finally decided on the strawberry glow and was very interested to see how I would like it & decided to pair with a bee sharp açaí bowl. Julian was super friendly and asked if it was my first time at the juicery. I proceeded to tell him that it was my first time in San Diego, so I was very excited to try a new place. Julian's service was very quick and efficient!! Once my items were done, he handed them off to me and I went outside to finally try my delicious breakfast :) When I tell you....HANDS DOWN the BEST breakfast I've had in a long time! Both items were extremely refreshing and delicious!! I was honestly very surprised at how well I enjoyed the avocado and dates paired in the strawberry glow smoothie. As well as how AMAZING the hazelnut spread is in the bee sharp bowl! I will DEFINITELY be back here & you should to!! Thank you so much Julian for your recommendations, quick & friendly service!

Prefacing with - I don't really eat Acai Bowls, it feels like just a thick smoothie with some…read moretoppings but I cannot deny that Juice Wave changed my perspective completely and I understand the hype. You can't really beat the refreshing taste of fresh fruit and nutty granola and butter. Especially when you can take this delectable bowl to the beach and just vibe in the sand. Wave Bowl $16 (14.50+1.50): 5/5 The bowl itself looks fairly small like, but deceptively so since I was stuffed after eating the whole thing for breakfast. It is higher cost than I would usually spend but I don't eat açaí bowls to know the average. Personally I really liked that the toppings were at the bottom and the bases were on top, not just because it was a beautiful display but because sometimes when it is the opposite, it can quickly get messy with toppings falling and dropping. The granola was crunchy and the add-on nut butter ($1.50) was plentiful and contrasted well to the fruits. You get some finely diced strawberries and bananas that were just the right amount of ripe, the bananas a little more firm but definitely preferred with the bases. The pineapple spirulina was favorite as it had a good sweetness to it. Honestly wished I could get a bowl with just this as a base and of course the natural blue color is just so unique. Coconut was coconutty and the pitaya was brightly colored, not too much distinctive taste on this one. Peak San Diego Experience

I'm a hater, I hate to admit it but I love un influencing these instagram/tik tok famous places. So…read moreoften they end up being a trend based on good marketing tactics which is amazing but good marketing doesn't mean good flavor and good service. In this case yes the bowl was OK was but was no better than the 3 other bowl places within a mile of this location. The wait was LONG as for many of the bowl places on this street but this one was extra long as in 45 minutes to an hour wait on off hours long. And of course with all these tik tok famous places the price was inflated. Based on taste alone I could have given this place 4 starts but the extra tik tok tax(inflated price just for being TikTok trendy) and extra wait time for the exact same thing you can get anywhere else rubbed me wrong so I'm going to have to leave this 3 star right here.

What do you know I was able to find parking in La Jolla easily. It just so happened I turned on Fay Street which is another busy street in La Jolla, and someone was backing out of their parking spot, so it was meant to be. I walked a short distance to Kline street which was the cross street of where "Blue Whale" is located. At first, I felt like I was not going to try it here because of the line of people and people everywhere outside and a long line inside the place. I decided to wait because I did not know when I would be back. When walking in, the vibe is cute, casual, and beach themed. The music is energizing and happy too. I placed my order with a friendly cashier and told her I wanted it to go because all the tables outside and inside were filled. But, someone was getting up from their table and I quickly walked over to snag the table inside. I had a cute, small table up against a window. Again, another sign I should try it. I ordered a sugar-free latte and avocado toast with an egg on top for added protein. Guess what, my food arrived in five minutes. Shannon, the manager brought it to me. I was so impressed how fast the service was and the friendliness here being so busy! She runs this place so professionally and efficiently. She is super friendly also! The rest of the staff the cashier, waitresses and waiters were also accommodating, friendly, and helpful too! Shoutout and Kudos to the chefs who create such deliciousness with the food. And, kudos to the baristas also who make such flavorful drinks. You all ROCK! The avocado toast with egg was incredible! So artistic with the presentation and the flavor was pit of this world DIVINE! The coffee was superb! I i understand the hype here! They deserve more than 5 stars! Whether you are a local or visitor, "Blue Whale" is a must! Outstanding in every way! #yelpsandiego #sandiego #lajolla #lajollacalifornia

Like many others, I was excited to try this place after seeing it on social media…read more What they didn't show online is how packed this place can get on the weekends, when I came on a Saturday afternoon the line was out the door and wrapping on the street. Even if you end up getting through the line to order, there doesn't seem to be a guarantee that there will be a table for you as seating was relatively limited. I ended up getting a to-go order since I didn't want to wait in line, but was a bit disappointed in the food given the hype. The California burrito was good but could have been more flavorful and the fries could've been crispier, and the mango sticky rice matcha was great in concept but the matcha flavor could've been stronger in execution.

They have a pretty concise menu and they will mark if something has sold out. This is connected to a store. Small section of indoor seating facing the street and a row facing into the store. It was pretty crowded when we went Saturday morning for brunch. Mainly an outdoor seating area with covered sections and some couches. The service is pretty quick though! Even though it's more than I'd usually pay for a simple meal I know it's the La Jolla cost so we decided why not. It's a yummy sandwich and the smoothie is pretty sweet but very yummy with chunks of the dragon fruit and mango coming through the straw. Overall a pretty spot but wouldn't consider coming up just for it. Glad to try!

He was easygoing, knowledgeable, and had that low-pressure style that makes shopping actually enjoyable.

The store itself has a great beach vibe organized layout, solid mix of surfwear and casual pieces, and prices that don't feel inflated like some coastal shops. I'll definitely be back next time I'm looking for something comfortable and coastal-cool. Thanks again to Jack for the spot-on recommendation. @neeks93 on insta
