    Service is AMAZING! The free cookie was such a nice surprise. The açaí was delicious and the juices are made fresh in the morning so get there early.

    Chipotle Chicken Sandwich
    Zaira R.

    I got the chicken chipotle salad sandwich and a sunrise juice. Overall, both were delicious. Service was great and got my sandwich fairly quick. This was my first time here and I really did enjoy it. However, $10 for a small a juice seemed excessive. I will probably come back and skip out on drinks.

    Energy Booster Juice
    Vivian T.

    Needed a retinol boost for my skin so I thought to order a juice from Juice Alchemy. You can place an online order, but I decided to order inside since I was nearby. I was on a time crunch though and was told the wait for a carrot juice would be 15 minutes, so please allow time for any custom-made juices. I wasn't really offered any alternatives, but I knew they sold juices on the side in their grab and go fridge, so I opted for that instead. The juice tasted great and was quite sweet, but refreshing. My juice was the Energy Booster and was a blend of apple, mint, carrot, and pineapple juice. They offer juice cleanse packages as well as acai bowls and sandwiches and is one of the healthier options for food in the Bankers Hill location.

    Acai Bowl 16oz
    Trevor T.

    Tucked away between a nail salon and massage parlor is Juice Alchemy. Right when you enter you feel healthier. Service was super helpful and they let me know the açaí bowl was dairy free. Relaxing music was playing and other patrons were hanging out sipping on their juices or waiting for their orders. Went for the 16 oz Açaí bowl, but they offer a 24 oz which looked massive. Comes with honey almond granola, strawberries, blueberries, banana, and your choice of honey or guava. I picked honey and they didn't skimp out. The bowl was perfection and they provided enough granola where you could mix it with the açaí which was fun. Will definitely be back if I'm in the area!

    Turkey Bacon Avocado Sandwich + Detox Juice
    Nina N.

    Great spot with abundant choices of juices, smoothies, and breakfast/lunch items. Sampled the Vanilla Kale smoothie and it was a dream :) Detox juice was very refreshing and the turkey bacon avocado sandwich pairs well with the chipotle sauce. Shout out to Abraham for excellent customer service and kindness!

    I visit this place a few times a week for smoothies and they have never disappointed. It's always very clean inside and staff is friendly. Their smoothie recipes are so good. Personal favorites include the Coffee Date with vanilla protein, Very Berry with vanilla protein, and the protein oat balls!

    Turkey bacon sandwich

    If I could give this place negative stars I would. Horrible and atrocious service, it was like I was talking to a wall. Never told me how long the food would take. The açaí bowl was mediocre at best, didn't taste like anything at all. And the bottom was frozen so I'm assuming they pre make them and just pull them out. The sandwich had a hair in it and it was embedded into the turkey. The bacon also looked super limp. I called and left a voicemail - no response. Called the next day and was told management would call but it has now been 3 days with no communication. Save your money and time. This place is trash.

    Very cool, casual, comfortable. Definitely the California 3 C's :D. Ver welcoming Friendly service. Didn't have food; however, the menu offerings sound delicious and delightful. I drank the "Coffee Date", and my date drank the "Banana Boat" YUMMmmersssss!!!!!

    Vanilla Kale Smoothie
    Airi G.

    When I drank the Vanilla Kale all I could think was this is definitely something I can make at home for a lot cheaper. I asked the worker, who was very kind, for recommendations and she said this was one of their most popular ones. I mean it's not horrible but it's also not great either. It tasted mostly like almond butter and basially no vanilla which was what I was looking forward to.

    Was craving a smoothie after a long day in Balboa Park. Definitely a cute little spot with a nice seating atmosphere. I got the Coffee Date smoothie in 'kids' size. Banana, cold brew, and dates for a refreshing end of day pick me up. It tasted great. Unfortunately, the girl taking my order almost seemed annoyed that another customer and I walked in. She was unfriendly taking my order. I kind of took the hint and just took the smoothie to go. I'd love to go back and try an açai bowl or a sandwich, maybe on a different day.

    While visiting the beautiful state of California, by way, the breathtaking city of San Diego, I have enjoyed every meal thus far. Unfortunately, some of the food was a bit heavy, and did not agree with my digestive system. I came to yelp, as always looking for a nearby Juice bar. You would think, being in San Diego, you will find one on every block, this wasn't the case. The first location that I went to, was closed, and the number was out of service. This location was the closest to the location where I came up short. Upon arrival, The gentleman behind the counter greeted me with a warm smile. He was very hospitable, very caring, and was very accommodating to my digestive needs. I took him up on his suggestions to do the flu shot along with the detox smoothie. He explained that this location use the cold press, and that I could use my juice up to five days later. This was very impressive. Although the flu shot was spicy, it was nice in taste. He even gave me a little extra and I was able to share it with my daughter, who was about to travel back east. My juice was absolutely delicious. It was the perfect blend of fruits and vegetables, unlike other places where you could taste the celery in the detox. I was able to drink it, literally the whole bottle in less than 30 seconds. I wish I would've came back the following day to get another one. I decided to venture out and try another location in which I will also leave a review for that place. If you are in need of a detox mix with great customer service, this place sets the standard.

    Saucy - soupy - so dissatisfied
    Brandon A.

    Saucy - Soupy - So disappointed : I ordered the Açaí bowl ( add whey protein ) I waited inside and had the lady make my order. She handed it to me like this. I said... " hey sorry.,, is the granola and the PB in here ? " She replied back " umm yeahhhh ... soooo Açaí doesn't come " naturally " with protein in it, ( rolled eyes ) so when I add it - it... everything sinks to the bottom.." I'm like - interesting, nowhere else in the world I've ordered one of these has that happened. But okay thank you ! I live around the corner from here and would enjoy the opportunity to let them try again with providing a better order and experience but otherwise.. I would say go ANYWHERE ELSE.

    This is such a cool spot…read more I love a good coffee shop, even more so when they have more than just coffee. Easy does it has simple but delicious beverage options including coffee, matcha, hojicha, pastries and open face bagels. All delicious. But in addition to that, they also sell plenty of packaged goods like a copious amount of high quality take home coffee beans from some really amazing roasters, matcha and hojicha powder, snacks (like shiso sour cream popcorn), spreads, and tin fish. The shop itself is huge with plenty of seating and tables, making this a great coffee date spot or remote work location. Their branding is really cute and unique which adds to the overall vibe. We even experienced a cool pop up on the weekend when we first went! The service is also really great. Everyone is kind and helpful and the wait it never too long.

    It is a TRAVESTY... that I haven't yet written about the…read morecoffee shop I've dedicated my life to over the past year, because... well, like I said, you will always find me here! OVERVIEW Come for the equally balanced, delicious coffee AND matcha drinks; the spacious work setting; the side entertainment (like a free bookshelf + camp chairs outside), and incredible ownership. Be prepared for hard parking during peak hours (lunchtime) and possible lack of seats (especially during schooltime). DRINKS It is RARE to find a shop whose matcha is on par with its coffee; normally, one is better than the other. Easy Does It, or EDI as we affectionately call it, is pro at BOTH. With coffee served from Provecho, matcha from Nami and hojicha from Paru??? You just hit a trifecta of GOOD good. Our Typical Order: 1) Iced Earl Grey Latte - omg, I LOVE the earthiness that the earl grey syrup brings to the matcha. Matcha, to me, is either too grassy or too sweet; the earl grey syrup makes it a perfectly earthy balance. 2) Honey Cinnamon Latte - how good could a standard coffee shop latte be, you ask? They have the HCL at almost every shop, and it's not usually standout. EDI, again, blew expectations wide open. Their HCL is balanced: sweet without being saccharine; and you can actually taste the cinnamon. 3) Hojicha Latte, Hot - omg, there was a time when I ordered almost one of these A DAY. Again, another sleeper - if you like the taste of coffee but can't take the caffeine (for a late night drink, perhaps), a hojicha is a good choice. It has that grounded taste that coffee gives, and the hot version of it is like a HUG for your mouth and stomach. They also have cool inventive flavors like the Matcha Cloud, the Coconut Cream Cloud (which is a coffee cloud on top of coconut water, I hear it's refreshing), so you'll never get tired of the drinks they have here. I also want to mention that they do serve wine and beer, too... so there's something for everyone! FOOD Spend any time in a coffee shop and know... you're gonna get hungry! Thankfully, EDI has open-faced bagel sandwiches AND pastries here, all of which look mighty tasty; all of which I cannot partake in, since I am gluten free. But ohhh, gluten warriors unite! Thanks to the partnership that is Jacob of Made for Mei Mei Mochi (aka the protein mochi) and Easy Does It, you'll have your PICK of 5 different flavors of homemade, chewy, ooey, DELICIOUS MOCHI -- SANS added sugars and preservatives you normally find in the store. I'm telling you, I don't normally like mochi (it tends to be so sweet) but I love the texture. And Made for Mei Mei hits it all! Flavors include: 1) chocolate hazelnut -- which tastes like Ferrer Rocher, yum 2) ube 3) green tea / red bean 4) black sesame 5) pb&j (yes, he's stocked peanut butter & jelly, a fan-demanded flavor) My favorites are #1 and #4; sometimes I go for #2 and #5 to mix it up. Either way, I spend WAY too much on these tiny li'l treats I might as well become an early investor. AMBIENCE This place is perfect for computer work as light doesn't directly fill the whole space. I like a li'l shade when I'm staring at a bright computer screen. There are two rooms: front and back; the back is a li'l darker and more chill vibes than the front. I also appreciate that they have a free bookshelf (just replenish it with your own!), plus a few magazines scattered around (for decoration, but I still browse). I miss when coffee shops had analog media, especially for when we don't want to be glued to our screens. EXTRA CREDIT Easy Does It also offers their shop as space for community events. From mahjong with No Ambition Tile Club to wine and jazz nights IN SUM THANK YOU Easy Does It ~ Grace, Nancy, the sister I haven't met, Eugenia, and the entire team ~ for creating a lovely third space where I can work, enjoy my snacks / drinks, meet friends and co-work, and have a great conversation. You make it so easy to feel welcomed, and I'll forever be grateful for you :)

Overall, I think I would definitely come back again! Solid cafe with unique choices and flavors!

The parking is OK. that little shopping center that it's located in isn't the prettiest. The inside is typical dark coffee shop with seating. Not like the newer trend of coffee shops with brighter modern decor.

This thing that impressed me the most was their gluten free noodle options! It did not taste or feel gluten free, I had to double check with the waiter. Plus they didn't not charge extra to substitute to the gluten free noodles and I am grateful for that. Lastly we got the hot tea pot to share and it was so much tea! It was delicious.

We got the karage chicken, it was very flavorful and the breading was light which I liked and it didn't taste too oily. The curry was super good, the meat was tender and the curry sauce itself had a little spicy kick in it but still super flavorful. Also we got that huge tuna mayo onigiri which was like super sized but it was $8 so yea. It had a lot of tuna and it was packed really well. I was so full but the dessert looked amazing. We tried the matcha latte it was good but tasted just like sugar and milk lol There is no parking, u have to find street parking and there's no cross walk so u basically gotta jay walk if u park on the other side. Also the place isn't that big so it's not great for big parties, maybe for a family of 6 is the most you can accommodate. There is bar seating and limited outdoor seating. The service was great tho, and it's such a cute spot.
