Ordered ahead for pick up. This is my 2nd visit. Order was prepared per my specifications and was ready when I arrived for pick up. I have ordered the PB protein power bowl and it is very great tasting and filling. Food quality was excellent and service was very fast. Lots of interior tables available for both interior and outdoor seating. read more

Deceptive marketing. The parfait is shown as a full cup in their photos on the menu. But in actuality, you will only recieve half. See photo. Don't bother emailing or contacting them either, they're non responsive and will never answer. read more

Really seriously disappointing. And this isn't the first time this has happened. The Nekter bowls used to cost between eight and nine dollars each. Now my bowl cost $13.00 and I'm getting literally NOTHING more for it. To make matters worse.. today I received my bowl with about 30% of it missing! Just a lot of air on the top third of the container. I suspect this happens when Nekter gets new management and they want to improve the bottom line by shorting everyone by 25% to 30%. Am I going to get a 30% discount on this short-changed product? I seriously doubt it. I've gotten bowls in the past that were so full they almost couldn't put the lid on. This situation is almost as bad as potato chip companies who lie and say the potato chip bag is 1/3 full because of "settling". The only thing that is "settling" here is that some customers are willing to SETTLE for paying overinflated prices and then getting short changed on the product. I asked the Nekter employee why my bowls were 1/3 empty. She proceeded to tell me how she did everything right and said "sometimes it's just like that". Take a look at Nekter's OWN marketing photo (below), and then take a look at my photo and tell me if YOU think that "everything is right"? read more

I cannot believe it's taken me this long to discover Nekter! I like juices here and there but never considered myself a big juice girlie. I had my first juice from Nekter and it's safe to say I am absolutely obsessed. I tried the toxin flush and I've had it almost every day since! The quality and freshness of the fruits and veggies are unmatched. Ive also tried an acai bowl and smoothie and they were both delicious! Prices are fair and service is always great, but beware it can take some time as they make the juices fresh. read more

Got a smoothie from here it was really good and was able to place it thru the app and when I came in it was ready to grab and go and was able to add banana into it tasted really good definitely coming back read more

I stopped by today around 5 PM and ordered two bowls a Dragon Fruit Bowl and an Acai Mango Bowl. The Acai Mango Bowl had absolutely no mango in it. If you're out of an ingredient, customers should be informed before ordering, or at the very least offered extra fruit as a replacement. Instead, I was charged full price for a bowl missing one of its main ingredients. To make matters worse, the bowl wasn't even full. For the prices being charged, this is completely unacceptable. The staff seemed rushed trying to get orders out before closing at 6 PM, and unfortunately the quality of the food reflected that. The acai was extremely watered down and lacked flavor. I did not go back to have the issue corrected because I live far away, and by the time I realized the mango was missing, the store was already closing at 6 PM. Customers should not have to drive back to fix mistakes that should have been caught before the order was handed out. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience. Missing ingredients, small portions, and poor quality are not acceptable when customers are paying premium prices. I will not be returning and would not recommend this place to others. read more

Someone from Nekter reached out to me to make things right, so I appreciate the effort. My in person experience at the store has been generally good. The photo I had was taken from an Uber Eats delivery and I've never received such a bad order again. read more

Stepping into Nekter Juice Bar feels like entering a chlorophyll-charged utopia where kale and fruit engage in sophisticated diplomacy. The ambiance is refreshingly minimalist, as if the very concept of clutter was politely asked to leave and complied without protest. I ordered a smoothie that could only be described as spectacularly liquidy--an eloquent cascade of blended strawberries and banana that glided down the throat with aristocratic grace. The acai bowl, meanwhile, possessed a texture so luxuriously chilled and dignified it might have been briefly employed as a winter diplomat in the Arctic. The culinary experience itself was a symphony of exuberant freshness and unapologetic fruit-forward confidence. The chocolate drizzle--oh, the chocolate--was astonishingly, almost theatrically sweet, as though cocoa had decided to audition for a role in an opera and overperformed in the best possible way. Each sip and spoonful felt like a well-rehearsed performance where the berries, chia seeds, and almond butter all knew their cues impeccably. One leaves not merely nourished, but spiritually upgraded, slightly sticky with smoothie optimism, and contemplating whether hydration has secretly been an art form this whole time. I think that nekter is amazing and cool that is very cool and the coolest. read more

The customer service at this place SUCKS! Yes the drinks are good but I won't be coming back on principle. I asked if I had any points...the guy said no. I order and go sit down and sign into my nekter app to see that I have waaay more than enough points to get at least $20 knocked of my bill...nice. Glad I tipped almost $10. Next I bought chips. Like 4 bags. The girl didn't even hand me my receipt. She let it print and I guess expected me to take it out of the register? Just said your all set and started to walk away. I asked for a bag to carry all the chips and she practically threw it at me, like I was bothering HER! Then, I was waiting almost 20 minutes with nothing...turned around to see where the hell my order was, and there was a bag just sitting there. I'm sorry, is this mine?? Don't you normally communicate? My back was to the front as I was sitting in a table facing the outside. Do they normally just throw the bag on the counter and just move on? They were so rude. The girl that was "helping me" so to speak was SOOO rude...I will not be back. read more

At the Nèkter Juice Bar - Orchard Hills, I discovered that I had mistakenly placed an order at the wrong location, intended for my home but actually near our office. The staff member on duty, Max, provided excellent assistance in resolving the issue, suggesting that I cancel and re-place my order. After canceling, I informed Max that I would only receive a 50% refund per policy, and he kindly offered a 50% discount on my next order as a gesture of goodwill. That's outstanding customer service and commendations to your staff Max. read more

Stopped by this Nékter location after the sauna next door and ordered a toxin flush and a raspberry smoothie (wasn't on the menu board but she checked and said it's still available!) My smoothie was fine but the toxin flush was the oddest color compared to other locations I've been too. At pickup I asked about the red at the bottom; she said she made beet juice before, rinsed it but it was still there. Honestly I didn't mind and said it was okay, just was curious what happened there. But the green... was just super off I don't even know how to explain. My mom said it was kind of sweet like sugar was added but was also very watered down. Definitely not like the toxin flushes we normally get. read more

So sad. I've enjoying the banana berry smoothie for at least 10 years. Went to this location and it was terrible so they blamed it on the person who made it and said they didn't work there anymore. Today I ordered it and it had no taste so they remade it and it still had no taste. As in the bigger, the size the more ice. Things weren't bad until Julissa insulted me three different times told me it must be my taste because she had been working every year and a half although I've never seen her before. I hope that felt good to tell off your customer because I won't be back with my three kids. read more

Huge shout out to Jenna !!! I went in and ordered a Popeyes acai.. it was very watery and didn't taste right. When I went back to tell them , Jenna made sure it was made correctly and taught the person who made it what the correct measurements of the ingredients were. Thanks so much Jenna!!!!!!! You can see in this photo that these 2 drinks are supposed to be Popeyes acai however the blue straw is the first one I thought was watery and tasted funny.. the second drink was when Jenna remade the same exact drink . Look at the color difference though!!! It's definitely NOT consistent and was made incorrectly. read more

My daughters have been telling me for years that I should try an açaí bowl, but it never appealed to me. I finally tried one and I have to say it wasn't bad. I tried the Açai Mango without coconut flakes and banana toppings. I would definitely have one as a meal replacement....brekkie or lunch. I think just under $9.00 is a little pricey for a dessert. Because let's face it, that will buy me a slice of cheesecake w/ice cream, 7 pastries from Paris Baguette...you get my point! We will undoubtedly be back because my youngest daughter is a frequent flyer here. read more

The açaí bowls and smoothies here are delicious! I always order through the app and my order is always ready by the estimated time. My go-to order is the superfood açaí bowl + almond butter. I love all the fresh toppings and it is always well portioned with the açaí. The bowl is filling and makes a great brunch meal or afternoon snack! I'm not sure why there are bad reviews for this place because my order is made fresh, correctly and consistently on time. read more

Went in on my day off with a friend, seemed pretty busy so I was worried about the wait but I got greeted by a very friendly staff (Brayden) and they knocked out our drinks and bowls very quickly. Everything was great and it was so fresh. Was a great place to hang out and enjoy our bowls. read more

DO NOT COME TO THIS LOCATION This is the worst juice bar I have ever been to. The online orders I place an hour out are never even started by the time I get there. I am constantly told that they are out of every ingredient in my order. (Why wouldn't they call me instead of waiting for me to find out when i try to pick it up?) They also apparently do not know how to give me a refund for my order when this happens so I have to go through corporate customer service. It is so annoying giving a 20% tip when i place my online order, only to get the absolute worst service when I am there with no ability to adjust the tip. Ridiculous. read more

Let me start off with the service being horrible. It's always a teen kid that gives so much attitude it's unbearable. But the bowls and product they make is actually gross. Never made the right way, always either watery or just missing a whole ingredient. It's also missing almond butter. I paid like 15 bucks for this nasty bowl. read more

My fav drink is the Popeyes açaí!! Best for quick açaí cravings because it gets the job done. Every location I've been to makes it a bit different. It's either not sweet enough or not enough açaí. But I still love it read more

This place closes at 6 and I went in at 5:30 to order a freshly squeezed juice and the 3 girls working said that their juice machine was broken. I hope management sees this. I highly doubt the machine was broken They probably just cleaned the machine early to get out right at 6. My daughter and I were really disappointed we didn't get our juice since we drove over there just for that. read more

My friend and I both got açaí bowls but I think they should really be called smoothie bowls. They weren't like typical açaí bowls where the açaí is a bit icier and instead the açaí part of the bowl was super liquidy and almost tasted like if an açaí bowl had melted. It's also a bit pricey compared to other açaí places considering that the other açaí places really pack the bowls with açaí rather than blending the acai with other milks/juices. Maybe this is just personal preference but I would stick to their smoothies if I were to go back. The staff were super friendly and kind though read more

My son earned a smoothie for good behavior. Walked in ten mins before closing and the gal at the counter said they are closed. My son can tell time. Needless to say he was super flexible and left without a tantrum. I just want to pass along to the manager that this store closed early. What a bummer. Lost business and we will make juice it up our reward spot. Thanks! read more

Nekter is one of my favorite juice bars! Service here was very friendly and our drinks made quickly and well. My favorite is the toxin flush as well as the greenie, both are incredibly healthy and good for you. They have a variety of juices and smoothies available and it can be customized to your liking. Ideal place if you're looking for a healthy jumpstart, highly recommend it! read more

I am a regular here. When you are always greeted and treated promptly and provide good customer service, anything short of this immediately stands out. Today is 9/25 and I just left Nekter at 12:30. I waited on an empty line for 5 minutes to be helped. The young girl who works here was working with her co-worker, an asian gal. She finally comes over to the cashier to assist me. I noticed she didn't take off her gloves. The same gloves she was using to make smoothies. She took my credit card and swiped it after I ordered and returned to make the drinks with the same gloves she just touched the computer and my credit card with. As a nurse and someone who is pregnant, I pay attention to details such as these as these are not sanitary practices. She wasn't very friendly either as the other employees I encounter at this location. When she gave me my drink I asked, "is this the berry banana burst?" she just says "Yeah" as she's walking away. There is a girl that works here that wears a head wrap. She is always so sweet and friendly. I missed her today. read more

I stopped by a week ago for a quick juice since I was feeling extremely dehydrated. I had received an email late last year advertising "Student Happy hour" from 1-4pm on weekdays, so you show your student ID and get a discount. It was 12:55 when I got there, raining hard, and the store wasn't super cold (as I usually worn Parker was working the register and I asked whether they were still running this promo. He wasn't sure and checked with his coworkers, then verified they were no longer running it. But, since I'd received the email, he still gave me the discount which I thought was super nice. I usually have to wait at least 5-10 minutes for my juice regardless of how busy they are. This time my drink was ready as soon as I sat down. I'd also asked for extra lemon, and for me that is a ridiculous amount of lemon. Usually, once they give it to me I have to take it back and ask that they add more and more. The staff from Wednesday got it right the first time around! Thanks Parker!! read more

More of a review of the staff and service, don't order mobile delivery. I've gotten an order wrong each time and when they forgot a drink completely they told me to call corporate or come down to pick it up...not sure why I paid for delivery if I need to pick it up anyway. Also looks like there's a good amount of staff just hanging out in the back and like another review it does feel like you're bothering them. Otherwise drinks and bowls themselves are good. read more

They are all the best. I come here every morning for the past 2 years and always order a very chia with peanut butter

I've been coming to this location for about 7 months and I've never had a complaint, always super nice workers and very good customer service until recently I've noticed a change in management. Over my past few visits I've noticed the change of environment this new manger gives this place, from having to see workers getting mistreated by her, to bad customer service. I've never had a problem with the food and preparation time but I will definitely not be coming back to this location. I don't know why they would change something that's working to something that's not. read more

I go here quite often! They're always fast and I've noticed that they make drinks faster than other locations. The parking is always convenient and just overall had a better experience at this location than other Irvine/Tustin locations. I always order the greenie which is a good go to juice. Add some ice and you're good to go. It's refreshing and healthy! Great before or after a workout. read more

Great service. Fast and reliable and everything is fresh. Recommended! Super convenient and couldn't be happier with this location.
