PB Choco protein shake Egg Nog protein shake

Been trying to get more protein intake so I decided to finally try this place out with a friend. They have outdoor seating and its very clean. It is also nearby a park. The cashier is so nice! I want to try their bowls next time.

As a matcha lover, I'm always on the lookout for good matcha drinks, and this place didn't disappoint. I ordered the iced Banana Matcha Cinnamon Latte, it started off tasting like a creamy banana smoothie (so good) but got a bit too sweet after a few sips. I went back and asked if they could make it less sweet, and the barista was super kind and happy to redo it. The remake was perfect, just as tasty but more balanced to my liking. Next time I'll know what to ask for. Great customer service and great menu selection. Can't wait to come back and try more!

This place is tiny but mighty! I been coming here now almost once a week as I have appointments twice a week around the corner from this coffee shop. And well, so far I've been in LOVE with their banana cinnamon matcha tea! It's amazing! You gotta try it out! I have tried some of their refrigerated meals, one of my favs is the rice with broccoli with chicken breast! Sounds simple but it's soooo sooo good! The broccoli is cooked with just the enough crunch but softness good, the rice is very yum, and the chicken breast... I need their recipe I've never had chicken breast so juicy and tender before! It's located in the heart of down town Chula Vista, right by a lot of medical offices, next to a gym Oh they've also had samples of banana bread... EXCUSE ME? These are amazing too!!! The staff is pretty friendly too, there's so me indoor seating and some outdoor seating if you prefer to enjoy your goodies al fresco! Love this place!

Cute little coffee café with both street (metered) and structural parking available. Unfortunately, the service wasn't the friendliest. It took a while for someone to take my order, and when they finally did, they seemed distracted chatting with someone else--which led to my order being incorrect. I asked for an iced vanilla latte with breve (half & half), but received a hot version instead. Also worth noting: they charge extra for breve, which not all cafés do. Prices are a bit on the higher side. They do offer pre-made meals from an outside meal prep company--I grabbed two, and they were actually pretty good. We also tried the blueberry and lemon poppy muffins, both of which were tasty. There's plenty of indoor seating and a nice patio area if you want to sit outside.

Shredded Plastic in my Smoothie

Thirsty Thursday today ordered a mazapan smoothie kept getting plastic bits in my smoothie. Came home and filtered it and there was a bunch of shredded plastic. Not sure what it was from but seemed like a significant amount and I'm surprised it somehow made it into my smoothie.

OG PB Protein Shake

Great selection for protein drinks and food after a workout. Pb OG is delicious and not too sugary sweet.

We tried their food for the Taste of Third event. It was avocado toast and a peanut butter protein drink which we did not try due to an allergy. The toast was good! Servers were friendly! The place looks cute. I might be back.

Stopped by here a few days ago for protein shake. The protein shake was delicious but the customer service was meh. No greeting while you walk in, baristas are too busy socializing with non customers (friends). I guess some regulars walked in and then the cashier was friendlier and acknowledged them. Either way brush up on customer service and this place would be a bit better. Location is convenient with plenty of parking available (either on the street or lot adjacent to them).

This is a small cafe adjacent to the Chula Vista location of The Gym (TG), hence the name TG Cafe. It's a convenient pit stop for those who are members. Parking out front on 3rd Ave is metered so you will have to find a side street further away if you don't want to pay. The inside does not have much seating, but there is an outdoor patio to the south of the building where you can sit and relax al fresco. The menu was mainly beverages with nine styles of coffee and five types of protein smoothies/shakes. Food was limited to avocado toast, bagels, and pastries. The OG PB was my smoothie choice which had almond milk, banana, peanut butter, and chocolate protein. These protein smoothies/shakes are to be consumed immediately before or after a workout in order to aid in muscle recovery. In my case, I just wanted to sample one to compare to a similar product elsewhere. The taste and size of the drink were on par with the competition.

I have eaten here many many times. Each time the service, food, and ambiance is consistently above…read morestandard. I can tell they are proud of everything they make, and they do it very well. The portions are generous. I always share or have leftovers. Everything is fresh and made to order. You can save time by ordering ahead. Today I had the chicken torta, bionicos, and the Pacific Mix juice post workout. The bread was nicely toasted on the panini, the chicken well seasoned and not dry. Light on the mayo as requested. The bionicos hit my sweet tooth but in a healthier way vs donuts or candy. The papas caseras was an impulse buy to try at a later time. I was definitely full and of course I had leftovers to bring home. A forewarning about the parking lot - it is a tiny parking lot shared with 4 or 5 other businesses including Francos Flapjacks, a tattoo shop, Chop Shop Barbers, and a smoke shop. There is only one entrance/exit and it can be crowded depending on the time and day.

Ok so this was my first visit to this place and I guarantee it will NOT be the last. For context, I…read morewas camping with my son's boy scout troop on Silver Strand and it was hot... really really really hot. I wanted to grab some delicious and refreshing treats and found this place on Yelp with incredible reviews and had to give it a shot. First of all, you'll need to resist the temptation to order EVERYTHING on the menu because you could easily eat and drink your way through the whole thing. I went with the mangonaeda and bought one for me and one for my son. The nachos looked awesome and while it wasn't exactly in the "refreshing" category, a boy's got to eat right? The fruit was delicious and the chamoy straw is always a treat. I'll be honest, I almost didn't make it back to camp with the second drink because it was that good. Now let's talk about the nachos. Don't you hate it when you see an incredible pile of nachos and all the topings and goodies are on top and they're virtually never and more layered throughout the chips and by the time you get to the bottom, you've just got dry chips? I hate that. Well apparently these fine folks didn't read that recipe book and there were so many jalapenos and so much cheese I actually ran out of chips before I ran out of the toppings. It was an epic snacking experience. Keep up the fine work you're doing here and I can't wait to see you again.
