    I come here often and enjoy the food. I always get the Caribbean jerk chicken wrap with the detox island green smoothie. I do always ask for no cheese on my wrap which if I order on the app, they don't always do. Yesterday my smoothie was not blended and did not taste right which was a bummer. Normally they are much better.

    This is a good place for a quick meal on the go. They have a wide variety of acai bowls, smoothies, wraps, and salads that are usually prepared fresh and ready to eat within 10 minutes. I ordered the Bahama Mama bowl and loved the base and topping combo, however, the portion was very small for how much the product cost. My friend ordered the Detox Island Green smoothie, and it wasn't blended well; there were chunks of ice and unblended greens when she opened the lid to see. The person who took our order was not pleasant to interact with, but the person who gave us our food was kind. The restaurant was clean and well-kept.

    During happy hour the smoothies are half off!!! Happy hour is min to Thurs 3-5 pm The service was great!! The smoothie was great. Loved it. Had no sugar added and I was perfect. The peanut paradise was also great and delicious. Fast service!! Walked in and within 5 min had our drink

    I admittedly hold grudge as Tropical Smoothie Cafe occupies the space formerly used by Qdoba. It is a solid replacement. It met my expectations , similar to Jamba and other fast causal smoothie concepts. I tried the Island Punch Smoothie. It was good but could have used a little kick- tajin maybe?

    Happy hour prices (Monday to Thursday 3pm to 5pm) are amazing. Got my tall smoothie for less than $5. The peanut paradise is delicious. They also made my drink quick.

    Came at 7:20AM on a Thursday and they were closed. Sign says they open at 7. I guess they are more of an afternoon smoothie shop.

    I'd like to update my review with more accuracy. I'm giving 5 stars to Robert specifically. When Robert is not working and not presently there, this location needs extra help with management. Being someone in hospitality myself I have a good idea on what to expect as an employee communicating and interacting with a customer. The place is empty with no sense of urgency in making anything. Smoothies that should take 2-3 minutes being made in 5-10 when no customers are present, food taking even longer. The management team when Robert is not at work is not professional. The pace is very slow and it feels like they genuinely don't want to be here. One person cannot carry the work load forever. Some of the other managers are teenagers with no care in the world, understandably so. it's still a business and needs to be conducted as such.

I'm glad it's only about 3 minutes away, and I was even more glad that there was no one in there when I arrived. After I placed my order, the lunch crowd rolled in, ha!! Anyway, I ordered an Avocado Toast (1/2 order) and one of their Phoenix Children's Smoothie. The money they make from those special smoothies goes to support Phoenix Children's Hospital. The smoothie itself wasn't super sweet. In fact, I think it actually lacked sweetness, but I guess that's a good thing because we all could watch our sugar intake, right? They sell a bunch of house made fresh organic juices as well. Idk how much those were, because they didn't have prices on them. They do have a wide variety of flavors combinations to choose from. They also have Kaleidoscope branded merch for sale. I did like my Avocado Toast but I only ordered 1 slice. It tasted good, but I should have ordered 2 slices (a "full order"). There is an indoor dining area as well as some outdoor tables and chairs if you choose to dine outside. The prices are higher than average but that reflects the quality of their products. They don't use any of if the bad stuff. Parking wasn't a problem when I went. There are multiple spots outside the store along the street on both sides. Stop in if you're craving something healthy and not too sugary. Kaleidoscope has got you covered!

I ordered the salmon poke bowl with brown rice. What I received was the salmon poke bowl with quinoa. The iced tea was $5. A side of Brussels sprouts was $8 and very small. Our table had poured and downed almost all of the water in the carafe before I noticed a small black beetle submerged at the bottom of it. When I told the server, he replaced it, but didn't give everyone new glasses. Only me. My friend ordered a wrap and asked for it to be gluten free. The person who brought the food told her that it was gluten free. The server, who had taken the order, came back and told her it wasn't gluten free. He told her he'd replace it and take it off of her bill. It took her forever to get the new wrap. And when she got the bill, he hadn't removed it from her tab.

I hadn't been so decided to try it out! I placed an order on their website for two açaí bowls and figured I'd try a couple of their juices as well... It was a bit pricey ($8.49 for each bottled juice and $12.25 for each açaí bowl), but I feel like all of these places are pricey these days and you have to pay for quality... I received an email receipt immediately with an estimated pick-up time for 10 minutes later. I headed over a few minutes after the estimated time and the woman working there apologized and said that she just then saw the order. She finished helping another customer and then made our bowls. I walked out of there another 10 minutes after the estimate. Not a huge deal, but also, not a five star experience. The bowls and juices were very good however. I'm sure I'll return to try a smoothie or another açaí bowl / juice in the future, but either order in person or just know going in that the online ordering system is not always super accurate. Either way, it's great to have a healthy option in the neighborhood.
