    Mixed berry Greek yogurt

    Small spot to have a study session. Clean area. a refreshing lunch, I have only tried the bowls & they have been well made every time!

    Detox Island Green Smoothie
    Tiffany J.

    I kept seeing Tropical Smoothie Café all over Yelp and had no idea it was a chain establishment. This whole time, I thought it was some small local spot in Pearland. Once I realized that this place is everywhere, I figured I need to hurry up and try it already. I ordered the wrap and smoothie combo online. I received confirmation that it would be ready in about 15 minutes. When I got there, I was greeted immediately by a nice employee. They have a cubby area for to go orders and my order was ready. I was in the store for less than a minute, but as I grabbed my food and headed to the door, another nice employee said bye. Something as small as saying hi and bye really left a good impression. Also, they had some great music playing and I wouldn't have been mad if my order wasn't ready so I could enjoy the music haha. Supergreen Caesar Chicken Wrap - I was expecting the wrap to be served cold for some reason, but it was warm and it was delicious. It was a tad salty, but the flavors were good. The tortilla was toasted nicely and I liked the Parmesan crisps. It had a good amount of Caesar dressing. Kale and Apple Slaw - This was okay. It had a bit too much dressing for my preference. I liked the contrast of sweet and tart flavors. Detox Island Green Smoothie - This was good, but it was heavy on the banana. If I were to order this again, I would 86 the banana. It's not as good as the Ginger n Greens smoothie at Jamba, but it was decent. You can modify ingredients like the type of sugar (the standard is turbinado) or do add ins or supplements for a fee. My order totaled $13 even which isn't too bad. I wish there was a way to add tip on the order form (if there is, then I missed it). I'm a sucker for a good sandwich so I suspect I'll be visiting Tropical Smoothie Café more often.

    Smoothies are great and I believe this is a black-owned franchise, so I'm happy to support! However, I must say the customer service is shit. Please train your employees to speak and greet guests, to have enthusiasm when speaking, and to not just stare and expect me to start talking. That really ruined my experience, however, I will be back because the smoothies are good. I came September 23, 2023 around 12 PM noon and one of the workers (slimmer Black woman with cap and moles) was very cold and rude. I don't know if she wasn't having a good day, but we all have bad days. I try to be empathetic, but again.. fake it until you make it or call off if you're not in a mentally sane mood for your service job that day. Just my opinion. Overall, please don't let one employee deter you from these delicious smoothies and supporting a black owned business!

    DETOX ISLAND GREEN with Pea Protein my fav!
    Mahwish S.

    I love the fresh ingredients they use. I feel they use more natural fruit in their smoothies instead of fruit juices. My favorite is the Island Green smoothie. I fluctuate between the regular one and the detox version that has ginger. I've also tried and loved the Avocolada green smoothie and the chia banana boost that is sweetened with dates! I have their app which I order ahead and pick it up. The app also gives you rewards for a free smoothie. The more you visit the more rewards.

    Here for National Flip Flop Day!! Didn't know they had a location in Pearland! I used to always go to the one in a Westchase. Love everything about them. The food, the smoothies. Always fresh. Super clean. Always friendly smiles from the staff. They're so nice!

    Stopped by after my morning walk to get a smoothie but ended up getting the yogurt bowl. When I say GOOD...I mean it was slap ya mama good!!! The fruit was fresh and the granola was a good blend. The almonds added e nice crunch. The service was very pleasant and friendly. Check 'em out y'all!!

    My child got a coupon from a school function for a free regular sub. He REALLY wanted a meatball…read moresub, unfortunately, they do not offer these here. He picked a buffalo chicken sub instead. Unfortunately agin, we got to the register and the girl notified us that the free sub coupon wasn't for this location. (OMG!) She said that each one is individually owned and they couldn't honor the coupon. I didn't want to spend $11+ for a sub we expected to be free. Luckily she mentioned the app and I fortunately had enough points I could redeem for a free regular sub! So needless to say, the staff were friendly, wish the coupon could have been honored and personally I wouldn't have paid $11 for a regular sub but that's just me so I doubt we'll be back.

Both are so good. The Italian has so many meats on it and it's such a filling meal. No matter which sandwich I get, I always add mayo, lettuce, pickles, chili peppers, salt, pepper, oil, and vinegar. The people making the sandwiches always ask about the toppings whether it's a hot or cold sub. But this last visit was very different. I think the guy helping us might have been new, but honestly, this might have been my last time going. I'm not sure I can look past what happened. It was hard for him to even take the order. He couldn't hear the people in front of us or anything we were saying. We had to repeat ourselves more than once. That part is fine, not really his fault. I finally get my cheesesteak order in, and while that's cooking, they start making my husband's sandwich. The guy is wearing gloves, which is good, but then he stops and adjusts his hat without changing them. Then he goes right back to making the sandwich. At this point, he has mayo and toppings on his hat from the gloves, and now he's using those same gloves to keep working. While I'm watching all this, I miss them wrapping up my sub. But it turns out they didn't add any of the toppings I asked for. The girl rolls her eyes, tears the sub open, and has the same guy start adding the toppings. Still using the same dirty gloves he touched his hat with. Maybe that doesn't seem like a big deal to some people, but to me, it's just gross.

    Its Vietnamese, not sure of the 'Paris' association, maybe because they carry French baguette,…read moremacarons and other pastries as well. Its spacious, has an open vibe, with tables and chairs on one end of the restaurant, and across the glass windows. Pretty different. The lady at the counter was super sweet. When I told her I was vegetarian she pointed out to all her options. I had planned to get a sandwich, but changed my mind to vegetarian pho. She made sure to tell me that the broth in it is also vegetarian. Food was made fresh and came out piping hot with the side of the usual sprouts, basil leaves and lemon. The noodles and veggies were cooked just right. I would have preferred a few more veggies but it was fine. Simple and soothing on the stomach. They had a special promotion of free ice tea with noodle pho. I chose the red guava green tea... found it very refreshing. Should come back to try their sandwiches, desserts, slushies, bubble tea ... quite a long list of options... Service commendable Price reasonable Overall definitely 5 stars

    This place has the best Thai tea in the Houston area!…read more Ever since relocating from California, we've been searching for a Thai tea that could compare to our favorite restaurant in Long Beach. We've tried so many places around Houston, but nothing ever came close. We happened to be in the area one day, noticed Thai tea on the menu, and decided to give it a try. I was honestly skeptical because I expected it to taste like all the others we'd already tried. The moment I took my first sip, I looked at my family and said, "This is it! This is the one!" It tasted just like the Thai tea from our favorite spot back in California. We couldn't believe we had finally found it. Now we find ourselves coming back regularly just for their Thai tea! If you love your Thai tea rich, creamy, and on the sweeter side like my family does, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend!

The app shows you previous orders which makes it easy to select quickly what you ordered before, if that's what you want. I can also use Apple Pay through the app. Once ordered, I typically am given a pickup time which is about 20 minutes. When I pick it up at the counter inside, it's always ready and there's no wait. A great user experience. I always order the Smokey Jack Panini (pic attached). It comes with nitrate free smoked turkey (the main reason I get it), bacon, pepper Jack cheese, Roma tomatoes, and guacamole on sour dough bread. It also comes with thousand island dressing but I leave that off. The app allows you to easily delete or add items to your sandwich. The sandwich is served warm, as it is put on a panini press. I generally really like this sandwich. Ordering through the app is a quick and easy way to order something relatively healthy and decent tasting, especially when you're on the move. My constructive feedback for this restaurant is the need for quality consistency. Sometimes the sandwich is better than other times, but is overall generally good.
