I've tried a few of their smoothies over my last couple of visits, and the quality is unmatched--everything tastes incredibly crisp, natural, and phenomenal. The absolute standout for me so far has been the young coconut. It is so refreshing and hit the spot perfectly. The staff is great, the vibes are clean, and the menu gives you exactly what you need. 10/10 highly recommend checking them out!

I got the medium açaí bowl, chia pudding, hemp granola (less sugar than the others, I think), strawberry, blueberry, goji berry & topped with cinnamon. It was ok. Not the best açaí I've ever had. Sorry guys. I think I'll stick to Oakberry. The employee wasn't friendly or nice either. It was like talking to Eeyore. No smile, nothing that made me want to come back or tell my friends about. Also, when he had leftovers from my friend's smoothie, I asked if I could have some to try and he said "No, you can't." And took the rest of it to the back. Wow! What a waste! Definitely won't come back now. ‍

I was in the area and craving something sweet but healthy (?) so I came to Jamba. On the day I was…read morethere, it appeared they were doing some painting on the exterior so all of the store fronts and the sidewalk were covered in plastic. I went inside anyway. It wasn't crowded on a Saturday morning; there was only one other customer. While the employee was finishing up with the other customer, I started to order from the screen. The employee, whose name I didn't get, offered to take my order instead of me figuring out the screen. I took him up on his offer. I ordered Greens & Ginger and he said that's his favorite. I scanned my app and he helpfully informed me that I have no rewards but I did earn points on this order. This employee was really a gem. He was so helpful and had a great energy and willingness to help. It really makes a huge difference in the Jamba experience.

I stopped by the traffic circle to visit the nearby car wash. I was originally planning to return…read moreto the Jamba on Bellflower and Willow until I suddenly remembered there was this Jamba by the traffic circle! To celebrate National Acai Day, Jamba was offering $5 acai bowls between the hours of 3 PM and 7 PM. However, since it was a pretty limited window, Jamba decided to extend this opportunity to rewards members by offering a $5 acai bowl that can be redeemed later that week! For National Acai Day, I went to the Bellflower and Willow location, which was way better than this location by a longshot. For one, they actually allowed me to upgrade my acai bowl to a large, normally a $3 upcharge, for just $2 more. Here, I was told by the lone employee (Jose?) inside the shop that I couldn't do that even though I would have been willing to do it again. Jose didn't seem customer centric as I got the impression he didn't want to be working that evening. Not one smile on his face even though the last employee I had encountered earlier that week was all smiles. I knew what the acai bowls were, but I asked him to explain it just to get a feel for his service, and I felt he was well versed in describing these bowls to the customer. I had previously tried the Acai Primo, which contains a plethora of berries and bananas, so naturally, I went with the other acai bowl, the Acai Peanut Butter & Nutella. It didn't take long for him to prepare my bowl, only about 5 minutes, and that even included him ringing up another customer who came in shortly after I did. At first, he just gave me the acai bowl by itself even though I had mentioned at the register I was ordering "to go", so I asked for a takeout bag. He got one that had a drink carrier on the bottom, and the bowl wouldn't really fit in that drink carrier. Oh well, at least I got a free drink carrier even if it wasn't useful for me that day lol. When I got home, I saw that some of the nutella and peanut butter was stuck on the underside of the lid. Unfortunately, the bowl as a whole didn't hit nearly as hard as the Acai Primo. The banana slices weren't nearly as fresh as the fruits from the Acai Primo, and the same could be said for the acai. The granola was starting to get a little mushy too. The taste wasn't bad per se, but the overall flavor was quite muted. The pickup counter includes straws and spoons, so don't forget to grab either/or before you leave! That's probably why Jose didn't bother to insert a spoon inside my takeout bag. This Jamba is located in the Ralphs Circle Center between Ralphs and Daiso. It's a pretty small location and can easily be missed, hence why I had initially forgotten about this location until I passed by it on the way to the car wash. Overall, 5 stars out of 10, but I'm rounding up to 3 stars out of 5 since it was a quick stop and go. I didn't necessarily hate my overall experience, but it was definitely lacking enough that I doubt I'd return to this location.

Today I had a 5$ off reward and decided to get a large açaí bowl with extra strawberries for 1$. I placed it for 2:30pm and upon entering at my placed time I was forced to wait another 20 mins. Upon receiving my bowl I noticed it was halfway full. I know I used a reward but it was like they took off 5$ of ingredients. The açaí was below the juice it up logo and it's not because of needing to make space for ingredients. I've ordered this same bowl numerous times and each time it has been full. Also when asking for extra strawberries in general for mobile ordering it seems like it's not being seen or acknowledged and feels scam like even though it's only 1$ it's an extra ingredient I would like on my bowl and sometimes it's like there's only 1 whole strawberry for the bowl. Anyways I hope this location fixes their portion size, wait times and bowl request.

There's also something so fulfilling about supporting our local vendors and small businesses. This little spot will definitely be worked into my budget for my beach walks! Great açaí, great energy and such a cool place to sit, chill and enjoy the ocean.

Another good place for me to get a quick bite to take to the beach like I did today.

The inside is much larger than it looks from the street, with plenty of booth seating, a big paleta section, and a long case of ice creams and fruit-based frozen treats. The selection is the main reason to go. Along with flavors like piña coco and fresas con crema, they have candy and cereal-inspired options like Kit Kat and Fruity Pebbles, plus bionicos, nachos, Hot Cheetos snacks, and other treats. I tried the Sandia/watermelon sorbet. It was more icy than creamy, very sweet, and refreshing, although closer to a syrupy frozen treat than a fresh-fruit sorbet. I still enjoyed it. The shop has always been very clean when I've visited, and service has been quick. My only real hesitation is the price. A single scoop was around $7, which felt expensive for what it was. This isn't a location I'd make a special trip across town for, and the surrounding shopping center isn't much of a destination, but it works well when you want a paleta, ice cream, or a quick snack and happen to be in the neighborhood.

But she acknowledged the advertised price and i did pay what i saw which was $5.99 So just be mindful and aware of what you are ordering and make sure the price is right once you pay. Overall my craving was satisfied at the end of the day
