    Detox Smoothie
    Dorian H.

    Love this place, & this location in Shenandoah in particular. Amazing customer service & very friendly staff. Very knowledgeable of products & eager to help their customers. Always welcoming with greetings & smiling faces. But warning, you will become addicted to their entire menu as I have. Keep up the great service guys, our neighborhood enjoys this place so much!!

    ACAI BOWL
    Andrea C.

    Açaí bowls here are a must! You can definitely taste all the fruits in the açaí base. You get generous toppings as well. It's a bit hard to get into sometimes as it is quite frozen, but we enjoy it every time and are always satisfied. Seating inside is comfortable enough for a lunch or breakfast spot. Staff has been helpful to any of our questions. Haven't had any issues here.

    Great smoothie & great service!

    We stopped here for the first time, seeing the good Yelp reviews. There is such a good variety (Bonus: calories posted on each one!!!). The manager, Lexi, spent quite some time helping me pick out what smoothie I wanted. She knew the menu well and thank goodness she was working when I came in. The size of the smoothies are impressive. They are all quite large, which is good in this Houston heat! I have found my new go-to place!

    Chicken Pesto Panini

    Came here for a quick lunch in between a professional conference break out session- haven't had their food before but glad that I made the choice to choose their chicken and pesto panini!!!! So good and flavorful! Not bad for the 1st time- I will definitely return!

    I enjoyed a delicious and refreshing smoothie, Sunrise Sunset, at Tropical Smoothie Cafe. Owners Rakesh and Gabby were delightful and knowledgeable hosts. For a plethora of healthy dining choices, stop by and see them soon...and tell them the Mad Sausage King, Michael Clearman, sent you.

    We grabbed some lunch to go and we really enjoyed the ones we chose: 1) Hummus veggie wrap: If you're in a mediterranean healthy mood, then I recommend this one. It comes with hummus, smashed avocado, pepper jack cheese, romaine, kale spinach, rice, black beans and red onions and tomatoes. It's pretty filling overall so you don't feel guilty after eating it. A pretty healthy option (5/5) 2) Tropical chicken salad sandwich: This is my favorite one. It comes with pulled chicken, cashews, roasted pineapple salsa and jerk mayo with romaine spinach. It's chicken salad packed with much more flavor. I wish the cashews were sliced smaller cuz they were a bit chunky for me, but other than that, I really enjoyed the sandwich overall (5/5) Overall, prices are decent as you are paying for healthy options with fresh ingredients. Credit cards are accepted and there's plenty of parking.

    Great sized smoothies!!
    Amandalynn H.

    These smoothies never disappoint! They taste so natural and fresh! The fruits are never lacking in flavor! It is a little disappointing that there's only one size but the price is great considering how much smoothie you get! I've also never had a chunky smoothie from here. They are always blended to give a great consistency. The staff here went above and beyond. They were so nice and made such a short experience so enjoyable. (Shout out to Rakesh!!) Love this place! I loved their new star fruit flavor!

    This tropical smoothie does not honor yelp rewards. I had to purchase and use the app to gain rewards towards a free smoothie for a later date. No misunderstanding on my part but thanks for replying.

    Why 5 stars? Because this long awaited visit was so worth the wait…read more --- --- --- This was one of those places I have not only had on my list forever, but I've tried to go a comical amount of times. Somehow, someway, it seems to never work out for me. But it finally happened and I'm mad at myself that it took so long. Probably 2+ years ago a friend and I were at a local sub shop in Sugar Land, and he mentioned how Blimpie was always his favorite. I couldn't even remember if I'd ever been to a Blimpie, but I saw that there happened to be one, so I bookmarked it on that day, and it haunted me ever since. Blimpie cares not about decor or vibes, but they do make an absolutely incredible sandwich. The menu is unique, in that each sandwich is basically just one ingredient different than the sandwich above it. I opted for the Blimpie Best Deluxe on parmesan bre The bread was pillowy soft. The flavor of the sandwich was absolute perfection. It somehow got better each bite. I could not believe how much I liked it and how sad I was when it was over. It will probably torment me indefinitely that I didn't order the larger sandwich. I will prevail. And I will visit again. My question though, is very simply: why did Blimpie almost completely go away? It's light years better than Subway.

    A Blimpie with a 4.8 on Yelp and 4.5 on Google Maps... seriously? You know this Yelper had to…read moreinvestigate. For context, I'm a Subway loyalist. I used to eat it daily back when a full meal was $4.99, and I've even had Subway in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. So yes, I have a calibrated palate for mass‑market sandwiches. They've got a handful of subs on special, but for a couple bucks more I went with my usual Italian--here called the "Italiano"--on Cheddar Jalapeño bread. And of course I did the footlong because size does matter. I asked for it toasted, only to discover they use a panini press, which flattens the bread like a stress test. Not my favorite. Ironically, I used to love Blimpie's oven‑style toast before Subway even offered it. They do have a separate oven for melting cheese, and that part I absolutely recommend. The sandwich itself was very good and definitely in Subway territory. For $1.29 you can grab a self‑serve cookie--critical, because I can select the front‑row cookie with the maximum chip‑to‑dough ratio. Fresh daily, solid flavor, very Subway‑adjacent. But I still prefer Subway's footlong cookie. It's a personality trait at this point. Staff was extremely friendly. I'm pretty sure the owner was working the counter, unless a gentleman of his seniority just enjoys staying busy or needs the cash, which is increasingly common these days. Honestly, that personal touch is probably what gives this place an edge over Subway. Pepsi products here. Acceptable, but I'm a Coke person. Blimpie is becoming an endangered species, even though it predates Subway by a year. But overall, I still think Subway has the stronger product.

We did not sit there because it was hot. We sat indoors. It was just me and my child. Our waitress did not mention that kids (12 and under) eat free all day Mondays (and 10 am - 12 noon on weekends). I learned this from reading Google reviews after we had already ordered. After I asked, she confirmed the promotion and allowed us to add a kids meal since we had already ordered an adult entrée, which is the required condition. We ordered a kids' pizza. You can pepperoni for $1 but it's a free add on Mondays. Not gonna lie, pizza tasted off. Kid said it and I ignored her. Then I tried it and ack. We brought the rest home and stuck it in the fridge but it tasted even worse the next day. Tossed in trash. Service required frequent prompting. Like pulling teeth. I had to ask about the drink included with the kids meal. And yes Milk is an option. I also had to ask about the cookie that is supposed to come with the meal. We did not receive one. She said they had chocolate chip only as oatmeal and sugar cookies were gone. I said fine. We never got anything. So I went to the take out stand and we were told they were out of cookies. But they offered us a small brownie instead. Unfortunately however it contained nuts. For an appetizer, we ordered the cast iron spinach artichoke dip. The chip‑to‑dip ratio was not balanced. We ran out of chips way before the dip was gone. We also ordered the cast iron skirt steak (yes lots of cast irons). I requested medium rare. It arrived medium well and slightly tough however. You'd think they could easily tell this since they slice it all up before serving. It was not seasoned, but presumably that is because it is intended to be used with the chimichurri sauce provided. No salt on the tables. Overall, the experience and the food were marginal and borderline acceptable, but definitely unremarkable. Service is another story however. She was nice, just not very good at her craft.
