Shake Smart is my favorite place to go after the gym. They have all sorts of healthy options to choose from and I find that their nutrition fact information is defiantly worth keeping if you plan to come here a lot. Shakes/Food: I've almost had everything on the menu because I basically live at shake smart. But my to go items are the Rawcai Bowl (taste so good! Especially the acai when it's three scoops mixed in with the strawberry jam at the bottom) or he PB squared ( Peanut butter is my favorite snack when it comes to being healthy LOL so this one is def. a must try when you go. I also love the texture and the protein blended in). Service: I sometimes do the Secret Shopper and they always get good reviews from me because the service is great. Everyone there is friendly and helpful! Environment: Super small and spacious. It can take a while to get your order when it's packed but when it's empty you'll get your order fast! read more

Shake Smart - IG: @TheBunBoBae Rawcai Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Encountered this shack on the CSUN campus during the summer. Located right outside of the gym, super convenient for students. Prices are on the high side, but it's Cali... we're from the islands so it's no sticker shock to us. My son just loved everything about this business. Founded by SDSU students and being "healthy" snack options it's right up his alley. We tried a good mix of things. Smoothies, bites, sweet treats. The protein balls were good. I didn't try any of the smoothies but there were no complaints. Avo toast was good and the acai was pretty basic. I honestly wouldn't go out of my way to check this place out. But with it being conveniently outside of the gym, I can see it just being a good default. read more

Poor customer service. Attitude of employee is a a zero out of 10. I was treated as a nuisance for ordering while no one was at this place. communication skill is a zero out 10. I understand the connivence of being on campus they really shouldn't need much more than a hello good morning and take the order. Hopefully management steps up their hiring process. Drink was terrible would never go here again save your money. read more

On campus açaí in a nice corner by the CSUN gym. the açaí sadly tasted like it has a ton of added sugar and the toppings were small compared to the price paid. The lack of parking means it's a pain for non students to try too read more

The smoothie was toxic and tasted like thick peanut butter and was extremely overpriced. Also very bitter and did offer any lower portion options. It also melted very fast. It also had a super thick consistency. read more

I decided to get a smoothy at shake smart it was very overpriced and when I received it after waiting for about 8-10 minutes. It looked very bad and when I tried it it was so bad I had way higher expectations on that drink to and it tasted so gross it was super think and I didn't even taste the banana and strawberry it tasted like fake peanut butter. read more

It's awesome that the Student Recreation Center at CSUN has this health food business nearby, and allows for students to fuel either before or refuel after their workouts. I really like the smoothies here and would buy from here more if I made more time and money. The service is quick and seamless. I recommend you try their smoothies. read more

I've only ever gotten the peanut butter protein shake which was 10000/10! I want to try other food items from the menu. The staff were all so kind and the service was very fast. I love how it's right by the gym as well. read more

They always close like 20 to 25 mins early .It's honestly pretty annoying. Even if you order it before hand and you walk up they won't let you pay for it read more

I had a disappointing experience at this location. I placed my açaí bowl order through the self-service screen, carefully customizing my bowl and toppings -- especially asking for no coconut. When I received my order, it looked nothing like what I selected. I politely approached the worker at the window to explain the issue and clarify my modifications. Instead of offering help or even listening, she responded with a dismissive and snarky attitude, claiming there were no modifications made -- despite the fact that I had submitted and paid for them. Her tone was unnecessarily rude and made it clear she didn't care about the mistake or fixing it. I remained respectful throughout the interaction but ended up leaving with a bowl I didn't want and an overall negative experience. Mistakes happen, but the lack of customer service or accountability was really frustrating. I hope the management considers better training on professionalism and handling customer concerns respectfully. She was wearing a grey tank top, blonde/ brown hair up in a bun and wearing gold jewelry. She was either part of the Asian/Latin community. Do better! read more

LOVE their shakes and acai bowls, they're delicious and the employees are never stingy with toppings. The employees also work really quickly so you likely will not be waiting long. Not a huge fan of their wraps though, they're cold and not that tasty in my opinion (even with the sauces). read more

The ordering kiosk was easy to use and straight forward. The prices don't feel ridiculous and it's affordable. The quality of the service was fast and the quality of the food delicious. You can find an allergen menu online for gluten free options, which are available. read more

My first impression of this place was kind of ruined by the staff. The girl working was on her phone literally right in front of the order window (which, I have worked in her same position before and that is very unprofessional). She was drinking her can of soda and on her phone and I had to call her like three times for her to pay attention. And when she did finally hear me, I said "hi how are ya?" she said "yea hi what do you want" and was incredibly dismissive. The food was good. I' got the avocado toast so that was yummy. But when I thanked her for my food she ignored me and didn't say a word. So I don't know why she's acting like she's forced to work this job...she was very unprofessional and not kind at all...that's probably why she's getting paid an hourly- with that attitude‍ just sayin! read more

I love this place. It's an outdoor grab and go smoothie, acai bowl store. While it is a little more expensive than other food and drink places at CSUN, it is very much worth it I usually get the organic super-shake which has vanilla protein, organic superfood and peanut butter. I also get the strawberry fields which has strawberries and vanilla protein. Both of these are really good and you can also substitute regular milk for soy or almond (if available). I like how you can now go to the iPads just outside and order your drinks there so you can have time to fully look through the menu and take your time deciding what to get before paying at the cashier window. I also love how they recently added a canopy since there was little to no shade and sometimes it was too hot to stand in line or wait for drinks. These drinks are perfect after going to the gym or if its too hot ( it does get too hot in the valley around july - november). read more

get your money up not your funny up hardworking staff, good way to start out the morning with refreshing tasty bowls of mixed fruit and great drinks -there were ice chunks in drink -bowls are ok but high price - i hate eating healthy read more

This place uses whey gold standard protein which is really good quality. Shakes are delicious but a little on the pricey side. My favorite is the cold coffee shake with a scoop protien! This place perfect for a quick healthy snack before class or after a good workout! read more

Everything served here is amazing! The chocolate shake and the original acai bowls are my favorite. The staff here is always friendly and attentive. After an intsense exercise, or a fast bite before class, the food served here is definitely my go to option. The fruit is fresh and there are multiple options to customize your order. read more

Great staff. Very attentive and listens to customer requests. To the management- please implement the ability to tip staff digitally with debit. As a staff member on campus, I usually don't carry cash with me but would love to tip the employees when I come. read more

This place is hit or miss. Smoothies are definitely on the sweeter side at times. Wraps are a hit, especially the turkey and sun dried tomato one. I ordered overnight oats and they look dry as hell. Definitely not how I expected them to look. They're still pretty good though. I wish they added more fruit, I got blueberries in it and they didn't really put too many. Staff is usually really nice so that's always appreciated. read more

Shake Smart - Honestly... dry oats lol. Still yummy - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I tried the bbq turkey wrap and my boyfriend got the pb açaí bowl and it was amazing ! It was reasonably priced, and I would definitely come here again to try other things. Only downside is that it's on CSUN campus so it can be a little hard to find it. read more

I ordered a cold brew shake ($4.50) with peanut butter and an original acai bowl ($6.50). The acai smoothie base itself was a bit watery and bland though not at all icy. By itself, it was pretty meh. The granola, seeds, and banana were the perfect amount on top though and they made the bowl more interesting. My friend got the P&B acai bowl. The smoothie base was much nicer tasting (peanut butter makes everything delicious), but it would be nice to have bananas on top rather than the chocolate chips. I enjoyed the cold brew shake a lot. Do note that it tastes much better with the peanut butter. My friend got it without the add-on, and it was a little more bitter and thin. My whole bill was $11.50. It was a light, refreshing breakfast. I was probably 70% full. read more

Shake Smart - Cold brew coffee smoothie with peanut butter (yum!) and original acai bowl (okay) - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Coming from the SRC and saw this new place was opened so figured I give it a try! They have a decent menu of shakes coffees smoothies and some food like wraps and what not I ordered the Perfect 10 shake which came with banana, vanilla powder, almond milk(you get to choose low fat non fat almond or soy milk) blueberries peanut butter and I think that was it... It is pretty expensive, $5.75 for a regular but let me tell you, this is a good shake! I was worried the peanut butter would be too much and overpowering or the protein powder would be grainy but nope! Perfect blend delicious filling and getting swole! read more

Great customer service by Kurt amazing food and great vibes. Great place to get good and healthy food also have great Vegetarian and vegan options. ask for Kurt read more

Shake Smart - Great customer by Kurt will only come back coz of him. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I went here this morning to get an açaí bowl before class and wanted to use my own container but they told me I couldn't do that. Really disappointing and on top of that THEY USE PLASTIC FOR EVERYTHING. Nothing compostable. It's a shame that OB a college campus a place that should care about the environment has a business like this that obviously doesn't give a crap about our planet ***a reply to the business owner*** Plastics do not actually get recycled if they are not properly rinsed out before hand. Also there are other restaurants on campus that happily fill my containers so I will be supporting those businesses instead of yours. read more

The shakes are amazing! Any flavor and combinations are great. It's a bit pricey for what is it but I would still come back. Would not recommend the oatmeal, very bland and not cooked/heated all the way through. And the portion size is incredibly small. However the protein shakes are my favorite and are best after working out. read more

I have been here twice. And based on all the reviews I keep reading, all the negatives come from people who don't work in the industry of food or fast food. I was in Shake Smart today when maribel "received" her bad service and wrote the review, and I noticed I went in right after. The staff was fine, and worn down from a long day of work--which is completely normal! I will definitely return because this place is awesome. And for anyone considering doing restaurant work, do it! read more

I've only been here twice and both times I've ordered the "Breakfast to go" and it's amazing. The smoothies are the perfect consistency and refreshing. My smoothie is packed with fruit and surprisingly it's not overly sweet. Ordering is super easy and quick with a tablet outside the windows where you can surf through the menu depending on what you're looking for. That could be post workout, greens, natural energy, etc. When I went today after leaving the SRC I ordered a regular smoothie but one of the employees told me they made me a large because they had a lot left over. That really made my day! Unfortunately I didn't have cash on me to tip :(, and I was in a rush so I didn't catch his name but seriously thank you so much. Great staff and fast and easy service. read more

This place is awful . They accidentally charged 670 dollars for a 6.70 smoothie . Fucking up my credit limit . I'm still trying to fix the issue . And they just gave me a one free smoothie in response . I'll never recommend this place to anyone again or go there . read more

Me and my family love your place the smoothies are so delicious and it's cool because you guys have shakes protein shakes you have a Seibles you have sandwiches we have Rob's everything you can think of and it's healthy and it's delicious and you don't feel guilty about it so I'm so hoping you guys open up soon I'm sorry I didn't get the opportunity to write a review prior but I do have to say that you guys are one of the best healthy place that there is and that Csun needs to let you guys open as soon as possible I'm looking forward to just riding my bike to get a shake. read more

Very stingy amount and definitely NOT worth it. This was my second time having rawcai after having loved it the first time. I told my coworkers to def try it, and that I'll put it next to ubatuba. Nah dude, after this I'm choosing ubatuba over shakesmart acai at all times. 1.5 small scoops for $7???? And such stingy toppings too?? There's hardly anything on that bowl. I substituted banana for dark chocolate and there's barely a few crumbles. Apart from that one time I got a smoothie and I asked a couple times if it has any diary or not, and if the protein contains diary products, the cashier said no every time. I'm very lactose intolerant, so I got the smoothie, drank it and halfway through guess what, my stomach got hella upset!! That was a huuge let down! Most possibly the protein contained diary. (Diary is the only thing I'm allergic to so I know)Your employees should know your menus very well and be very careful when it comes to allergic content like diary, nuts etc. So yeah, I'm very disappointed. I'm not coming back to a place that can't hold on to good service. One time you get great food in good amount, and next time they give you a half empty bowl. Go to jamba juice, or juice it up instead. read more

Shake Smart - Rawcai in very stingy amounts and barely any toppings. Not worth it. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Located right on the CSUN campus near the gym. I really do enjoy the açaí bowls here. They also have sandwiches and smoothies. This is best place to go to on campus for something healthy. The staff here are nice and great at making suggestions if inclined to ask. I do wish they were part of the Tapingo app. I much rather place my order and pick it up when ready. At certain times it seems crowded and I rather avoid the line. But that just goes to show how great it is!! read more

Shake Smart - Acai bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Woah! Not only is this shack convenient for all CSUN students and SRC goers, but it's also extremely affordable! I'm comparing this to your typical smoothie/juice bars around LA where a small is a minimum of $8. Shake smart has a range of refreshing options from juices, to coffees to bowls! I tried the peanut butter and chocolate smoothie with whey and i couldn't get enough of it! I think a small was about $5! Definitely a post-work out treat. They accept apple pay! read more

I love this smoothie place. It's a great price considering the quality used. (Top quality protein / some organic products) Price range from 5.25-8.50 The wraps are also delicious and reallllly filling. read more

I LOVE this place! First off, the service is fantastic. Kayla, Reese, Quetzal, and the rest of the crew are always super welcoming. I usually go here first thing in the morning after a workout and before classes and it's all around a great start to my day. I usually get the organic super shake. It's blended perfectly and just the right balance of sweetness. Their Almond butter banana sammies are the perfect snack to tote around to munch on throughout my day. If i have a little more time, I'll get the peanut butter oatmeal or one of their yogurts, and for lunch, definitely their turkey pesto wrap... Or the tuna... They're all good. Try it. You won't regret it! read more

Shake Smart - Peanut butter oatmeal! Amazing! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Smoothies: are on point, so delicious and the perfect consistency. Had a 'greens to go' and expected the ingredients to be more runny but it was just the right amount of thickness. I loved it. Wraps: I enjoy the wraps, the quantity is just right, I like how it's neatly packed up - the wrap itself and the container. They include a little thing of banana chips which is cool except unfortunately the chips are flavorless, I know it's all healthy stuff and I still eat them but honestly they taste like nothing. Veggie wrap tastes more like mustard than hummus, not sure why? Staff: seriously all so nice! Even when I'm being indecisive they'll help u figure out what u might like and make great suggestions. I really like all the people I've interacted with, makes going there even better Cost: should be less. It's healthy so I get it and appreciate at least having one actual healthy spot on campus but $13 for a veggie wrap and small smoothie is on the high end imo, especially for a student based facility All in all, happy we have this on campus and will get pictures next time! Enjoy read more

The shake your coffee with PB is ahhhmazeballs. Everytime I'm in LA I always stop by here. It's a cute place and AnSonia ALWAYS makes my shakes, acai bowls in a quick and timely manner. She's super friendly and really sweet. I always look forward to coming and it definitely keeps my healthy eating habits in check! read more

It was my first time here at Shake Smart. I really like the tuna wrap. But I also ordered a turkey pesto. The turkey pesto wasn't that great. It was dry and rubbery....But the tuna wrap was delicious and totally made up for it! I would recommend it if you're into spicy. I also ordered their smoothies and it was great. They have peanut butter everything. I'm such a big fan of peanut butter and it totally fed my soul. The only thing that makes it difficult here is the parking Because it is at csun And there's nowhere to sit. Just take your food and go somewhere else to eat it. I'd come back! It's all yummy read more

Probably the best shake/smoothie spot I've been to in a long time. Super quick service so there's never really any waiting, even when they're busy. Perfect for energizing in the morning to get energized for the day or after a good workout! I recommend the Fruitopia read more

I'm glad they opened this when I first transferred to CSUN! It's a great go to place right after I hit up the SRC that's across from it, they really did pick a great location for this place! Their drinks are amazing and the employees are always willing to alterize the drinks on the menu to the customer's likings! My favorite go-tos are the greens-Togo and frutopia with soy protein instead of the regular whey protein; plus their original acia bowls are super delicious and refreshing, like tee protein shakes! read more

they got my items wrong twice in a row. i dont know if they even train their employees. after explicitly stating what i wanted on the açaí bowl and smoothie prior they still got it wrong. also they need to stop being greedy and hire more people they are obviously short staffed. read more
