    Although I told myself I wouldn't return here due to my previous experience, family members asked for Smoothies so here I returned. Everything negative the first go-around has disappeared. Not sure if there's new ownership/management, yet this visit was on a positive note. Greeted upon entry. Kindly guided to the waiting spots due to the Social Distancing mandates, the numbered signage on the walls was a plus. An extremely clean store. A very friendly employee on the register. More friendly employees arm deep in making smoothies, sandwiches & such who will briefly look up & say "welcome or hello". Easy access for To Go/Pick Up orders. Glad the second time around was highly better than the first time.

    Hummus veggie wrap
    Kyja W.

    Simple, healthy, and delicious. My usual go-to is the hummus veggie wrap. It's always flavorful and hot. I've had a few favorite smoothies that I alternate amongst, from the always available detox island green or the sunrise sunset to the seasonal mango berry cosmo. The service here is great--everybody is welcoming and very fast. It's a casual, comfortable spot.

    Amazing customer service! Carl made my smoothie perfect & my sandwich even better. My favorite location here in Atlanta

    One of my go-to spots for a smoothie when I'm running errands in the area. I have the app downloaded, which makes it really easy to order for pick-up. They have a couple seats at the counter to wait if your order isn't ready yet too. My only gripe with Tropical Smoothie is that they don't have a small size. The smoothie is quite large and is enough to split between two people. I can't finish the whole thing in one sitting, so I put it in my freezer and took it out to melt a bit before drinking the rest the next day...

    Jetty Punch Smoothie and Sunrise Sunset Smoothie

    Was craving a smoothie, so I had my gf come and get one with me. We came across Tropical Smoothie Cafe, as it was the closest thing to us. This wasn't our first time here, but our second. My gf got the Jetty Punch smoothie, which is a strawberry and banana smoothie. I got the Sunrise Sunset smoothie, which was a combination of strawberries, pineapple, mango, and orange juice. Overall the smoothies were average tasting, nothing too special. You're also not able to pick your size, and it's pretty pricey as well. We paid a little over $12 for two of them. I probably wouldn't come back.

    I'm a fan. First, it's cheap and healthier food. I get the Thai salad which is yummy!! Love the greens and the chicken and dressing. I've eaten several of their wraps including the chicken pesto and the Cali wrap and one other one...all of them are unique with a different flavor. I've never been to the store but I get it delivered, I've only used this one location. Never tried a smoothie but I hear they are yummy too. I recommend you check this place out for a potentially healthy and cheaper meal that has a lot of flavor! Had a great experience today! Jimmy and the staff are awesome! They were polite and accommodated is even though we were "those people" walking in 5 mins before close. They were very welcoming and stayed until we were done! Healthy food! :) upgraded my review!!

    Anytime I'm in this particular area I always order from here. I truly wish there were more locations. I love the bright colors on the wall. What I enjoy most about Tropical Smoothie is not only do they offer smoothies, they sell plenty of food products. Most times I order a smoothie and my favorite is the Bahama Mama. I do wish they offered more size options like small, medium or large. At times I want a size bigger than the kids but smaller than the normal smoothie. But whatever I don't finish, I'm for sure to save for later.

    My go-to spot and it never disappoints me! Their smoothies are so fresh and delicious. So many options to choose from and you can't go wrong with either flavor. They can get expensive but it's worth it when you want to eat healthy. My favorite smoothies to order is the Island Green, Sunset Sunrise or Peanut Paradise.

    My girlfriend and me came here yesterday for a healthy meal after working out and what we end up with a great overall experience. We have been coming here for about a year but not until yesterday for a full meal. I originally just wanted a buffalo wrap but ending up adding Green Island Smoothie to it for $3.50 which was a great deal. Smoothies are usually $7-$8 but are discounted when you come for their Happy Hour(open to 9:30am) to coming to $3.99 and if you add a smoothie to any meal it comes out to $3.50 as I got it for. My girlfriend to a chicken wrap(no picture) and a smoothie(no picture), she was happy with both too. I definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting a great smoothie, healthy wrap, bowl, salad and/or snack in the area. Tip: If you want your smoothie to be more healthy ask for no sugar, the smoothie are sweet enough from the sweeten from the fruits in them.

    I still really favor this store for my smoothies although their wraps and have been gaining traction with me. You can get any wrap and add a smoothie for just $3 or $3.50 more so the meal is just around $10. It's a healthy, filing meal. I will say the bowl wasn't a good deal. It's just all diced iceberg lettuce at the bottom. If they filled it with quinoa or brown rice then it would make it a good choice. Otherwise, I still enjoy the quick and friendly service.

We arrived about two hours prior to them closing, which turned out to be perfect, as we beat the crowd and before they stopped taking orders. That was my only negative observation, many people were turned away nearly an hour before closing. I know I would have been upset if I drove all the way to Decatur and couldn't place an order. Hopefully, they will improve their processes so everyone can experience the greatness that they're cooking up! When we arrived, one of the owners greeted us with a lively personality. She handed us menus and told us to select a seat. The seating is spacious, and you can opt to sit at the bar, a table, or outdoors. It's open seating, so it's first come, first served. After selecting a seat, our server arrived shortly thereafter and let us know that the shrimp fries were out of stock before we ordered. We were hungry, so we already knew what we wanted to order. I chose the "THAT SH!T SLAMBING" with feta cheese, initially opting out of the fries, but I don't think the server heard me, and my husband ordered the "Who Wants Beef" with fries. Everything was cooked fresh to order, so there was a slight wait. I would recommend planning accordingly if you're really hungry, as the wait maybe longer than expected. We also shared a Jumex Nectar, as they only had one left. While waiting, I was told they were out of feta cheese, though I saw a dish with feta come out after ours; however, they may have ordered it before us. I was still a bit disappointed, as I believe the feta would have taken my lamb burger to another level. When our food arrived, it was hot and fresh. I was glad I ended up with fries, as I was hungrier than I thought. The burgers were amazing and seasoned to perfection. You can tell the chef is cooking with passion, as you can taste it in every bite. I also appreciate that they utilize farm-to-block sourcing, providing fresh, handcrafted, high-quality food. If you've been considering dining here, don't hesitate any longer, just go! Be sure to arrive early or call ahead for takeout. I highly recommend this place and look forward to visiting again!

And the pepperoni and soppressata didn't add any spice to the sandwich. This is the first time I have ever been disappointed in soppressata! I thought the pepperoni mayo would add some kick as well and maybe it would have if there had been more than a half-tablespoon of it. And the bread was not fresh! I could have cried over this. The cost is outrageous for this kind of quality. On the upside, the service remains top tier and the space is still welcoming. But I won't be back. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
