The smoothies were fresh, delicious, and packed with healthy benefits. POST WORKOUT blueberry, banana, vanilla protein, peanut butter, almond milk, agave THE GOLDEN BUDDHA mango, pineapple, banana, cold pressed ginger & carrot juice, coconut water Both of these smoothies were great, but the latter packs a little punch (which I personally love) from the ginger. If you're looking for a more traditional berry smoothie, the Post Workout is a must-try. In my opinion, the pricing matches the quality and it's definitely worth it. The shop was super cute and they had a little shop in the front section. Quick counter service. Some seating inside and a small private parking lot! So glad we finally tried out The Green Cat and I can't wait to go back to try some other menu items soon!

When I walked in, I was greeted by the friendly staff and I was drawn to the decor. Straight back it looked like a little library, how cute! For a holiday, it wasn't busy! There were about 6 other people in there, 5 of them being together. After taking way too long to decide, I went with the "coffee date" smoothie which had cold brew coffee, almond milk, banana, peanut butter, raw cacao and dates. The small was $12.12. A little pricey; but for organic nowadays, that's the price you pay! While I waited, I admired the ambiance of the spot, even the bathroom was aesthetic! It happened to be Fruitives birthday over the weekend, so Chris at the front gave me a reusable bamboo straw and a little keychain! So sweet. My order took about 5 minutes! The first sip was exactly what I was looking for. Something refreshing, slightly sweet and the perfect morning pick me up! I enjoyed my smoothie outside for a little before heading out to finish my errands. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, depending on your vibe! I definitely look forward to stopping by again to grab one of their food items! The bowls and wraps sounded sooo good.

What a cool Vegan café. I stopped in for a smoothie and salad. The staff greeted me. Smoothie was…read morecoffee based and very filling. The salad was kale based and they offered many options for customizing your salad. The salad was fresh. I will note that I had issues with the app and tried to call the store. There is not a direct number, but chat/text you could use. This was a bit of the pain as the store at the other was the DC location and they have to call Va Beach to get updates. Otherwise, everything else was fine. The space is inviting and I would definitely visit here again.

If you go in a group of 10 or more, it all goes on 1 check which is probably standard, but it made it a little awkward at the end. Last gripe was we asked for a photo of our table and they charged $20 on the bill. Other than that, The food was good and the service wasn't too bad for a packed Friday. The decor and restaurant was very pretty. I didn't get any photos of any of the food because everyone was starving. The shrimp and pesto pizza wasn't too bad. The shrimp didn't seem like fresh were close to water shrimp. More like bagged but it still tasted good. The cheese pizza was also pretty flavorful. The steak was really good. Highly flavorful and there were large asparagus spears that were also good. Brussels were very good and had a sweet taste to it. The salmon was very good as well and cooked perfectly.

The hostess and manager greeted us right away and brought a high chair over for my little person without me having to ask. The music was not loud and the sunset pierced through the restaurant giving soft lighting to the restaurant. We ordered the buffalo cauliflower and artichoke spinach dip as a starter. It came out hot and very tasty - whoever the chef is really knows how to cook and not over-season food. I would order the cauliflower again (comes with ranch) and other starters just to try everything out. The dip came with pita, which is different. I liked the combination. For entrees we ordered the shrimp and scallops, children's chicken tenders with a fruit bowl and the honey chicken. Everything was carefully proportioned and bursted with flavor. The experience and customer service was a 10/10 and I recommend.

I chose the jerk chicken wrap, chips, and the Green Squeeze juice. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. The jerk chicken wrap was well-seasoned and satisfying, the chips were crisp, and the Green Squeeze juice was refreshing and smooth -- not overpowering, just clean and energizing. The service really stood out. My order came out quickly, and instead of calling my name, the staff brought the food directly to my table, which was a nice touch. Customer service was attentive and welcoming the entire time. Overall, great food, great service, and a pleasant experience. I'll definitely be returning and would recommend Simpli Natural to anyone looking for fresh, flavorful options.

We had the pleasure to be able to try out DC Fresh Eats Food Truck this past weekend during the Va…read moreBeach Surf Art Vender Event, and while food truck choices were limited they did have the best menu for our current cravings. The flavor was amazing for my choice, the' spicy burrito meal', only negatives was the rice was undercooked. Had it not been for that, it would have been absolutely perfect. Between the flavor and spice level I honestly thought that it had the potential of being my favorite new try of the month. 4/5 My sister on the other hand got the club sandwich on a croissant meal, sadly she said even though it was good it was just too dry. Visually a bit messy but fresh produce was prevalent. 3/5 We both ordered a pineapple smoothie, good but a tad too watery and I'm sure the heat of the day did make it worse as it melted the smoothie so quickly. 3/5 She also ordered a plain cheese quesadilla, it was supposed to be kids sized but I believe since they had forgot to make it they hurriedly made a large sized one. It was just your basic cheese quesadilla. Our two main meals came with chips and a drink, for the price this was a great deal. While service was good, it was slow. The young man who took our order did have a positive attitude but with it only being 2 people working and a large group of people wanting to order or receive their order; the wait was hard. Service was 4/5 . In the end I think they did a great job and I'm sure they'll keep working towards being one of the best Food Trucks in our area. Worth a try.

While Selden Market I met Danni, the co-owner of Bellas Creations and talk about giving off good vibes...she had an encouraging spirit and so much personality! It immediately felt like I had met a new addition to my 757 Fam! Also, I found out her family has an entrepreneurial spirit! Her sister owns Isabel's Comfy Co. (soft blankets and pillows) and her brother owns DC Smoothie (food truck). Based upon Danni's recommendation...I checked out DC Smoothie which was located at Farmhouse Brewing for the day. As soon as, I pulled up Danni's husband greeted me like family! He had a huge smile and said, Danni told me you were on the way; what can I get you? I felt so welcomed! I almost thought he was going get real 757 and ask me; how your momma' and them doing? Well, I ordered one of the best smoothies ever and tacos!! It was a great experience...I will definitely be back! Side Note: God is always placing the right people in your life to give you messages, help you find your way, and/or let you know you are on the right path. Danni dropped a few jewels that resonated with me that I would like to share for Women's History Month: 1. I want you to win just as much me... 2. Be that person... 3. Go above and beyond... 4. People over profits... 5. Be proud of who you are... 6. Lean into who you are... 7. Community over competition...

We both got smoothies and they were large and tasted very very fresh with lots of fresh ingredients (not the watery ones you know only had some concentrate). Order at the counter and find your own seat-type place. Seating was mostly full but we lucked out with one available table that they had to bus and wipe down for us. The patio is really cute when the weather is warm. I liked the menu and could see this being a cute place to come with friends for lunch or bring out of town folks if they want to try a new brunch or lunch spot.

My sister in law is a huge fan of old school hip hop and she was singing and having so much fun reading the menu. What I love is that they have vegan options and regular options. My brother's family is vegan and it can be challenging for him to find places he can order food for his family. I don't mind eating vegan, but it's nice when places can do both. You may not believe me but this vegan friendly spot has THE best bacon I've ever had... so don't sleep on them!! The guy who was there when we picked up the food was very gracious and accommodating, I am not sure if he was the owner but he seemed genuinely appreciative of our business and it's nice to feel that as a customer. I got the breakfast burrito - it was very good, full of root veg and eggs, I would have liked a little more sauce or salsa for some flavor dimension but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The salad that came with my breakfast burrito was very tasty and I added it to the burrito for some acid from the vinaigrette. I appreciated the side salad option because it can be so hard to get your veggies in while traveling. My husband and the kids got waffles, the waffle portion was great for the kiddos but left my husband wanting more. I also got The Warren G smoothie which was yummy.

The young lady that took my order was pleasant and the older woman who made the order was very efficient with all the orders she had. My smoothie was refreshing, but just ok to me. It sits in the JCP corner of the mall, away from the food court. There are a few seats & tables to sit at and enjoy your order. If you're looking to just visit it without needing to roam the mall, there's an entrance nearby. I guess that's a plus; however, I likely will not try them ever again because they're in the mall and I don't frequent it.
