This is not my first time to this location, let's see how it went: Parking is minimal at best, few spaces in the back lot and street side only. Inside is a modestly lit atmosphere which works well for what they are trying to achieve. The service was nice and friendly . The food here is great, mixed with some cultural favorites as well. The Citrus bar is outstanding also. Nice job on the fresh veggies and citrus bar combo. read more

Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience at Sweet Citrus in Burlingame. My order was made incorrectly, and when I politely explained that I had received the wrong drink, I was told I would have to pay for a replacement instead of having the mistake corrected. I want to be clear that this is not a reflection of the staff. They were polite and were simply following the rules set by management. My disappointment is with the policy itself. I'm currently pregnant, and because of my nausea, there are only a few specific drinks I can tolerate. This particular drink has been one of the few things that actually helps, so receiving the wrong order wasn't just a minor inconvenience. I simply wanted the drink I had ordered and paid for. After posting my review, I received a response saying that if I had mentioned my pregnancy and that I couldn't tolerate another drink, they would have replaced it. While I appreciate the response, I don't believe customers should have to explain personal circumstances to have an incorrect order corrected. Whether someone is pregnant, has dietary restrictions, allergies, or no special circumstances at all, if a business makes a mistake and prepares the wrong order, it should simply be replaced. I've been to many other drink shops, and even when a customer simply doesn't like a drink, they're often happy to remake it. In this case, the mistake wasn't mine, yet I was expected to pay again. That level of customer service was surprising and very disappointing. I hope management reconsiders this policy, because every customer deserves to receive the correct order without having to justify why it matters. read more

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - Sweet citrus store - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

This juice/smoothie bar is such a game changer! I love their heartbeet juice, it's one of my favorites although depending on who is working at the counter -- it varies from sour to sweet. LOL Other than that, I'm glad it's inside of the market where I can look for things that I need to buy before picking it up when it's ready. read more

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - Classic with almond butter - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

Meter parking, not too difficult to find. Located inside the farmers market and wasn't busy. Only took about 5 mins to make my acai bowls. I'd rank this spot in my top 2 for acai in the bay area. The texture of the acai is smooth and creamy, not icy at all. The fruits were super fresh and the portions were good. I added almond butter to my bowl which was $1.99 and was pleasantly surprised. It went perfectly with my bowl! My first thought was that the bowl was sweet, but I have a sweet tooth so I really enjoyed it. Will definitely come back. Total was almost $28 for 2 bowls and an add on. read more

I tried the Strawberry Oats smoothie and it was absolutely delicious, super refreshing and perfect for a hot day. The flavor was spot on, not overly sweet, and really satisfying. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Honestly, who would've thought some of the best smoothies in the Bay would be tucked inside a grocery market? Such a hidden gem. Definitely coming back to try more. read more

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - Strawberry Oats Smoothie - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

My all-time favorite place to get an açai bowl. The ingredients are always so fresh and yummy and their coconut almond butter is to die for. I always get the island vibes bowl (5/5). This tropical açai bowl reminds me of being in Hawaii. You get the pineapple, the mango, the strawberries, and the coconut almond butter with the coconut flakes is the cherry on top. Portions are huge, so I always end up sharing this one. The açaí tastes really good itself - for me it's the perfect flavor. I always find myself comparing other açaí bowls to the ones here at sweet citrus. I always stop by this açaí place whenever I'm in Burlingame. The parking can be a bit tricky, but there is a small lot behind the supermarket off the Main Street. read more

When I think of acai bowls, this is the first shop to pop up in my head. I haven't visited in months, yet the quality and taste of the bowls were top tier. I ordered the Classic bowl and Chocolate Berry bowl (sub Nutella for PB). The cashier was accommodating and made the bowls in a timely manner. I walked around the grocery store as they were being made and there's a great selection of goods. Parking is relatively easy during off hours and there's a few seats outdoors to enjoy your food. Really great spot for a nice day! read more

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - Chocolate Berry Bowl and Classic Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

YUM! Their açaí bowls hit every time! I knocked a star off because the quantity did decrease, their serving size used to be bigger. Other than that, their açaí is never icy, it's always nice and smooth! I got the Chocolate Berry, sub blueberries for extra bananas and sub Nutella for almond butter :) I wished they had indoor seating but other than that, their vibes are grab and go! FYI their in-house almond butter is unmatched! Please do yourself a favor and buy some for home. DELISH in smoothies and on toast! read more

This is so good every single time. Coconut almond butter is to die for. My go to spot on the peninsula.

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE‼ OVERPRICED for some bagged flaked coconut?! If I could give ZERO STARS, I absolutely would. I've been coming here for over 8 years, and today was the LAST time. I asked the young girl at the register a simple question: "When did you start drizzling almond butter on the Island Vibe bowls instead of the spoonful you used to do?"--and she immediately caught an attitude. I was shocked by how rude and dismissive she was. She told me I could speak to the manager, so I did--and he was just as rude and unprofessional as she was. Absolutely no accountability or customer care. Mind you, I had just spent $50 on four Island Vibe bowls AND bought the $16 jar of almond butter--only to be treated with complete disrespect. This place has gone downhill. The prices are outrageous, the customer service is trash, and I'd be better off spending that money on a month's worth of fresh fruit elsewhere. NEVER. GOING. BACK. read more

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - OVER PRICED ALMOND BUTTER - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

It's tucked inside a cute grocery store - entrance to the right - with some seating outside. There were three people working on the weekend and there was a constant flow of people coming in (2-3 people) with 10-15 minute wait after ordering. My friends and I got açaí bowls (classic and island vibez). They have mostly preset bowls with ingredients. You can also add toppings for extra cost if the presets don't have what you want. The pineapple on my island bowl was not very ripe, but all else was good. The almond butter had a great nutty flavor and the açaí was on the sweet side. I think the price is good for the portion they give! I noticed with the bowls you can choose either pitaya or açaí. They also offer juices, smoothies, and so much more. I definitely would want to go back and try other menu items. read more

This is our go to spot for Acai bowls and smoothies, it's located inside the Burlingame Farmers market with a metered parking lot in the back.

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - Sunrise Smoothie and Almond Lover Smoothie - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

Sweet Citrus in Burlingame is currently V's favourite spot to get açaí bowls. Since we discovered this place on March 23, 2024, we no longer get bowls from Jamba Juice. Located inside the Burlingame Farmers Market in downtown, the establishment does not have its own entry - you must go inside the grocery store to arrive at the mini shoppe. No private parking lot, either, but we haven't had any problems with finding a nearby space for our car in walking distance along Broadway Avenue. Did I mention that this place is tiny? Just a teenie weenie bit bigger than a mall food court vendor with a bench at the counter and a few products for sale on the two side walls. A few table and chairs are available outside if you want to stick around to eat. The menu offers an array of Smoothies, Juices, and Bowls (AÇAI/PITAYA and GREEK YOGURT). Unfamiliar with pitaya and how it compares to açaí on our first visit, a helpful staff member offered to provide samples of each for us to taste which we appreciated. Finding the pitaya on the bland side, we went with AÇAI Bowls, specifically the CHOCOLATE BERRY. Z customized his bowl to replace the BANANA with BLACKBERRY and I added CHIA SEEDS to mine. All of us enjoyed our CHOCOLATE BERRY AÇAI Bowls. The refreshing & smoothly blended açaí base + fresh fruit toppings + rich & chocolatey nutella + granola crunch = a party in your mouth. Z and I found the bowls as very hearty, so have decided to share a single bowl between the two of us since our first visit. V loves the Bowls so much that he continues to devour a single one on his own. Service is always fast, helpful and friendly. For a healthy start to your day, Swee Citrus is mos def the place to go. I think we will become regulars because V craves their bowls on a weekly basis. read more

My favorite spot to get açaí bowls as big as your head! While this spot has changed names (ownership?) over the years, I am so glad they have survived and are still doling out generously-portioned açaí bowls. I love that they share a home with the Burlingame Farmer's Market and always peruse their goods while waiting for my order. Today's unplanned purchase was a bag of nectarines for 3.99, but I digress. Service has always been pleasant and with a smile. I can't say I've ever experienced too long of a wait either, and parking is easy enough via street parking on Broadway (bring coins for the meters!) or in the lot behind the store. There are also tables out front if you'd like to eat al fresco. My order today was a broadway berry bowl for $11.99; they were out of blueberries and subbed bananas for free. This place isn't "cheap", but you pay the same price as competitors that serve you a way smaller bowl. read more

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - Broadway Berry Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

As a SoCal resident, this used to be my favorite açaí spot--I visited every time I was in town. Lately, portions have gotten smaller, which I understand given rising costs. What disappointed me more was the service. We ordered two bowls that list honey as an ingredient, but neither had any. When I asked, I was told--without checking--it was probably at the bottom. It wasn't. I didn't press the issue further, as it felt pointless arguing with someone who didn't care to verify. Mistakes happen, but how they're handled matters. Sadly, this visit fell short of what I once loved about this place. read more

Self proclaimed acai enthusiast here! I have to say this has got to be in my top 2 - best acai bowls I've ever tasted! I had just finished walking my dog at around 8 am and usually everything is still closed (even some smoothie places don't open up until 10 am). But I was craving a good smoothie or acai bowl. Stumbled upon this place and decided to stop by since I was already around the area (and it was the only one close by that was open early) and WOW it did not disappoint. I love me a good classic peanut butter acai bowl. The portions were more than generous. And parking was so easy to find. I can definitely see myself being a regular customer here. read more

Up until two months ago I was a fan of Sweet Citrus and their Acai and Pitaya bowls. That is until, Palmetto Superfoods came rolling into downtown Burlingame. They're located inside the Burlingame's Farmers Market on Broadway. There is a small parking lot in the back of the market. As for Sweet Citrus, they have a small fixed stand at the front of the market. Their menu is actually quite extensive and they have everything from fresh orange juice to smoothies to Bowls. I've had their orange juice and their Sunrise bowl(with Acai) on several occasions over the last year. Here is the challenge for me now, Palmetto is not far away from Sweet Citrus and their quality, customizable options, sizing, and pricing for their Bowls(at least) far outclasses what Sweet Citrus can offer. Nothing like healthy competition, right? read more

Best açaí bowl in the Bay Area + ADD THE COCONUT ALMOND BUTTER!!! absolutely incredible and the workers are all so nice

My go to every weekend after some morning exercise! it's so unbelievably good! It's located inside the Burlingame Farmers Market, on the right once you enter from the front! There's 1 parking spot in the back but also a little metered parking lot! My go to orders: GOLDEN BUTTERZ AÇAÍ BOWL * AMAZING * so much almond butter on the bowl * the açaí part is more sweet than sour which I personally prefer! POWER UP SMOOTHIE * I love their house made almond butter so any item I get from them will definitely include it * this is a more nutty smoothie for when I want a heavier smoothie HURRICANE SMOOTHIE * this is a sweeter smoothie but one that I like as a good alternative to the açaí bowl since it's similar ingredients I always come back and take all my friends here for a quick stop! read more

Sweet Citrus Burlingame - Golden Butterz Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Burlingame, California

WOW. This place is a GEM. I came here hungover one morning, hoping to get some healthy boost. I ended up getting the power up smoothie because it sounded the healthiest, and DAMN that smoothie was good. It was so good that months later, I've still been thinking about getting a smoothie from here. Thankfully, I've been able to revisit here recently. This time I put my faith in the front register person, and they recommended the almond lover with coconut almond butter (is what I think he said). At first I was a little skeptical because the ingredients more or less looked like a typical strawberry/blueberry smoothie. I was wrong. That first sip was packed with almond flavor. It is a little pricey for a smoothie (about $8), but honestly, I feel like it's worth it. There are other places that charge a little less, but they taste like a generic smoothie that you can make at home. I don't know what this location does with it, but I'm definitely going to continue to be a repeat customer. Plus, it's located in a grocery store, so it's pretty convenient to pick up any snacks while waiting for your drink. read more

One Star - Extremely Disappointed After 8+ Years as Loyal Customers AND referrals to many family and friends! We've been coming to this place for over 8 years for açaí bowls and drinks--especially on hot days with the family. Unfortunately, after today's experience, we won't be coming back. We ordered four Island Vibe bowls ($52 total) and added almond butter ($16), and were met with rude, dismissive service from the high school-aged cashier. When we tried to address the issue, the manager stepped in but was just as unhelpful and condescending. No effort was made to resolve the situation or show any appreciation for long-time customers. Overpriced products and terrible customer service--what a shame. This place has clearly lost its touch. Never going back. read more

Came here recently and grabbed a classic acai bowl. This business is tucked Inside a local grocery store. The menu was vast between a variety of juices, smoothies and bowls to choose from. There is something for everybody. When I ordered and received my bowl it was relatively quick. The bowl was generous in the portion that was provided. The classic acai bowl is a bit in the sweet size and made a great treat that is on the healthier side. I was definitely filled up by this bowl and I'm excited to go back and try other things off the menu. Glad I came in and tried Sweet Citrus! read more

Their smoothies are OK but establishment like this needs to allow orders over the phone or through a website, and the platforms just do not work.

Try building your own bowl, just don't miss out on the coconut almond butter! It's pretty godly, and I think of it often.

Located inside the Burlingame Farmer's Market on Broadway Ave, parking can be challenging and they're all metered spots also. I have been coming here off and on, more off for years. Recently I had a fresh squeezed orange juice from here and I was reminded that this is a great small shop for acai or pitaya bowls, smoothies, and juices. They even sell their own Almond Butter. Regarding the juices, bowls, and smoothies they have lots of ways to customize or build out your treat. They're a bit on the pricey side. There is no seating as they're inside a market. Service has always been friendly and they also have a rewards program using your phone number. read more

Im so glad I tried Sweet Citrus! I've been to the market before but never the cafe inside. My husband and I went to the pet parade this morning and I wanted to pickup a quick and healthy breakfast.

I am obsessed with their acai bowls, but my favorite is the Island Vibez smothered in cinnamon almond butter. Unlike other acai bowls from other stores I have tried (SoCal, Seattle/Tacoma) that taste watered down, Sweet Citrus' acai base is dense and perfectly sweetened. More than the toppings of fresh fruits and homemade almond butter, I love their acai bowls for their delicious, unadulterated acai or pitaya base. You can order a half and half pitaya and acai base, too. I am a big fan forever! read more
