    the inside of a fast food restaurant
    Cristina B.

    This store is located in the same shopping center as the Arrive apartments in Linda Vista. I frequent this Jamba location the most. My husband ritually gets a strawberry surf rider and I will usually get a pink star, but sometimes I rotate between a PB moo'd or white gummi. We'll also get the cheddar tomato twists from time to time and typically don't have issues with quality. Sometimes our drinks will be off, but that will usually only happen when we order through UberEats. I think the only issue I ever have is the lack of customer service. Sometimes the staff are very friendly, but most times the staff are robotic and non-responsive. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with COVID-19 or job turnover, but it reflects my 4-star rating; I would drop it to a 3-star rating if the quality of the drinks/food were consistently inconsistent. Overall, my husband and I will continue to frequent this location.

    I frequent here since I live down the street. Ordered via Door Dash on 11/23/22 and my smoothie was missing 1/4 the amount. I called the store and all I got was- "oops, sorry". This isn't an "oops" this is pure laziness on staff and your laziness has cost me money which I do not appreciate. I used to work at JJ and have 15 years FB service. I get it we have bad days but you guys are literally stealing. Management and staff need retraining

    Steel Cut Oatmeal with Coconut and Brown Sugar
    Jack M.

    Although they did not have some fresh coffee available, they do make some great steal cut oatmeal with a choice of toppings. For my oatmeal, I topped it with brown sugar crumble, shaved coconut, and some clover honey. The oatmeal was well cooked and tasted quite good. It arrived piping hot and came topped with a moderate amount of coconut and brown sugar. Both were very tasty with the oatmeal and so was the honey, but it definitely needed more of it, that tasty clover honey that is. For being early in the morning, the employees were in good spirits, but I would not mind if they would not hold back on those oatmeal toppings. The place sports limited inside seating and was quite clean.

    This Jamba is kinda like that Jamba. Good place to grab a snack near the trolley stop. Boost!!1!!!

    "Fresh squeezed" Orange juice

    I ordered two large "fresh squeezed" orange juices which was $15. I got home and gagged when I took a sip. It was thick, sour and nothing like what orange juice is supposed to taste like... I have ordered orange juice before and this was not it. I called to ask for an exchange or refund or something, nobody answered, I left a voicemail but never got called back. Just don't order this. Apart from that... the cashier who also made my order was very unwelcoming. Ashton I believe was her name. When I asked for the fresh squeezed juice she rolled her eyes. I asked if there was a problem and she said they were getting ready to close and had already cleaned up. It was 6, I thought they closed at 8, at least it's what it said online. But regardless I said if it's too much trouble not to worry about it. She said it will take ten minutes & made it... Like if you aren't in the mood, it's fine. I understand. I would have rather gone home with nothing than end up with whatever she made that was not what I ordered. Money down the drain.

    Just stopped in for a smoothie. My go to is the strawberries wild, nothing special just a nice fruit smoothie. I don't know all of the other stuff they offer because I get the same stuff every time. Two ladies in there this morning both seem pretty friendly, got my drink within 2 to 3 minutes after ordering. 9:30 AM on Friday. For a large smoothie price a little under six bucks for what I ordered. They are having a special now for the holiday season, if you buy a gift card for $25 you can get two small smoothies for free which seems to be a pretty good deal.

    Delicious, fresh, and quality smoothies, juice, and food here. The service is great and consistent,…read moreI've been coming here since high school and it's been my favorite smoothie/ fruit place ever since. No chain açaí bowl place has been able to make me feel different. I'm so happy they have been in Hillcrest for so long and continue to provide their services. Some of my fav items are the Liv signature smoothie, the veggie sandwich, and the lentil soup. Even typing makes me want to go get some now. It saddens me to see some weird review complaining about the business when I've come literally over 100 times and have never had a negative experience what so ever. Some of these wannabe "top elites" are getting out of hand. It feels like bullying in the hopes of getting some kind of special treatment. Very weird behavior, I hope they stay far away so the rest of the customers/community can enjoy the shop because it's a gift to the block.

The store is small with decent seating, but we opted to sit outside in their little dining area. The staff are nice and prices were decent. I shared an açaí bowl and turkey sandwich with a friend and we were both so stuffed at the end! I also got a smoothie and it was very refreshing. The turkey sandwich came with a side of fruit and it was all sweet and fresh. Everything just felt so fresh and delicious and I will definitely come back!

    I would've recommended this place because it's clean and the ingredients seem very honest and true…read moreto the description. but i had a little bit of unfortunate experience tonight because of the service. here's what happened... i got here at 9:05pm. i saw the store hours was until 930pm on Thursdays. i only ordered 1 passion mango drink and a crunchy bowl for $23. after i placed my order, i even tipped $5 (IN CASH) to the worker and she sees me place the tip in the jar. i felt bad for ordering within 30 minutes of closing. but i did not expect the worker to be in a noticeably bad mood as she was taking my order. she was extremely short with me this whole time. she didn't exchange pleasantries such as good evening or thank you. here's more bad experience from that night: when i got my orders: passion mango drink, it was half the cup as you see in the picture. and the bowl was uncovered. she just left my orders on the counter without proper notice. i felt scared to ask for a cover for the bowl. so i just left. i don't know man, i just felt like crap after that experience.

    Stopped by on a rainy day and I was pleasantly surprised to find their açaí is more like Brazilian…read moreaçaí than the sweet, açaí most people are used to. I wasn't a fan of the employees attitudes. You could tell they didn't want to be there and didn't want to interact with people at all. We tried the Tiger açaí bowl and I thought it was soo good! Although, I would argue there is no way I received "double strawberry" as the menu stated I should. It was literally 2 strawberries cut into multiple pieces. That's pretty rude if that's actually considered double. Especially when I paid $17 for this. Other than the lack of strawberries, the amount received of the other ingredients was very proportional and enjoyable. I really liked that the açaí wasn't overly sweet and the layering they did was perfect. I saw multiple reviews upset by the presentation of these bowls and I think the business could use some explanation to their customers that come in. Like asking if it's their first time, then explaining the concept to them if it is. I've had similar bowls before so I wasn't shocked by the protein powder or the layering, etc. The price is way too high for the small cup you get. Nearly $20 is not worth it to me especially when they don't give an appropriate amount of fruit. While I enjoyed it, I cannot justify paying for it again. Flavor gets a solid 4 but it dropping a star because of the employees attitudes and absurd price.
