    I order tropical smoothie at least once per week. This location was clean, BUT the smoothie was disgusting and they labeled everything incorrectly. The sandwich with the bacon had the label that said "no bacon." Therefore, the wrong person took the sandwich with no bacon. Smh. The smoothie was disgusting. I don't even like calling food disgusting, but it was powdery and there were chunks of pineapple which shows it was not blended all the way. The powder was just awful. Now I want to know why the smoothie was powdery. I don't remember seeing that as an ingredient.

    Tropical Smoothie Cafe has THE best customer service in addition to having fabulous smoothies. They have wide variety of flavors healthy & sweet. We had a neighborhood event & asked for 30 smoothies of five different flavors including: Margarita, Piña Colada, Mango, Very Berry . . . Isaac made sure the order was spot on accurate & on time:) The smoothies were such a hit ~ half an hour later we ordered another 30. Isaac really paid attention to details & "left room" for everyone's favorite supplements. Thank you Tropical Smoothie Cafe

    I ordered their açaí smoothie and it was good and refreshing. The only thing I wish the company can do is to become more environmental and discontin using micro-foam containers. But taste and service wise, it was good!

    I absolutely loved my mango smoothie... totally recommended. This place was so nice and clean. Fast and great service.

    The Jerk Chicken wrap was an absolute delight!!! It is not traditional in that it's jerk chicken, sauce, wrap, rather it is a lovely combination of Jerk chicken, rice, beans, pineapple and more...all optional to remove if one prefers. The wrap is a nice healthy size, cut into two halves (this photo is of the surviving half which will meet its demise for dinner! ) I wanted to highlight the wrap because this is a smoothie cafe but don't sleep on the food, my meal was exceptional!!!! I got the Detox Island Green which tastes so good but after my wrap, it was a wrap and I have to save it for later enjoyment! I'll definitely order from here again. Oh, if you are ordering for delivery, let me share that the food and smoothies were properly wrapped and contained for travel. I really feel like this is a great find!

    I was visiting DC and while downtown, my cousin and I decided to make a pit stop to get smoothie. I had the sunset and my cousin had the blimey limey. It was delicious and yummy!

I ordered the Tuscan Kale wrap (kale, sweet potatoes, quinoa, broccoli, chickpeas, onions, basil pesto, hummus, cayenne, tortilla) in a gluten-free wrap, and it was honestly one of the most flavorful wraps I've ever had! The ingredients tasted super savory and fresh. I also tried the Coffee Date smoothie (cold brew coffee, almond milk, banana, peanut butter, raw cacao, dates), and it was delicious. The atmosphere is cute, clean, and trendy, with a really welcoming feel. It's small with limited seating, but it wasn't overcrowded at all. I went with a group of three and we sat outside--perfect setup for a warm day with shaded seating and umbrellas. Inside, there were people working on laptops, so it definitely seems like a great spot to hang out or work remotely. Service was quick, warm, and friendly. Overall, such a great find. I'd absolutely come back.

    Birthday cake for breakfast? Say less!…read more I've been dying to try South Block's seasonal Birthday Cake Smoothie because I'm a sucker for anything birthday cake flavored. With this week's heat wave, Thursday felt like the perfect excuse to finally treat myself. The Birthday Cake Smoothie is made with almond milk, banana, vanilla, granola, maple syrup, plant protein, and topped with a dollop of blue CocoWhip, a cherry twist, and sprinkles. I swapped the plant protein for whey protein, and it absolutely hit the spot. It was creamy, refreshing, and definitely gave me the birthday cake vibes I was hoping for without being overly sweet. I ordered ahead through the app, and my smoothie was ready right on time. I also appreciated their pickup setup. Completed orders are placed in a freezer at the counter, so you can simply grab your drink and keep it moving. Quick, easy, and perfect for busy mornings. One thing I love about this location is being inside Union Market. There are plenty of places to sit if you want to enjoy your smoothie or bowl. Now, if you've ever been to Union Market on a weekend or evening, you already know finding a seat can feel like a competitive sport. But in the mornings, it's much calmer with far less foot traffic, making it a great time to visit. Price-wise, it's about the same as the South Block near my office in Arlington. Is it expensive? Sure. But honestly, that's just the reality of smoothie and açaí bowl spots these days. At least here, the quality, convenience, and fresh ingredients make it feel worth the splurge every once in a while. I'll definitely be back... especially if they bring this Birthday Cake Smoothie around again.

South Block has scores of options to choose from and I got the peanut butter & jelly. A+. I tried my fiancee's nutella amalgamation and it was just as good. I need to go back! We had such a great time enjoying it on the picnic tables outside. My only complaint was the acai bowl's were so good, our conversation was practically non-existent... we mostly just ate. They were filling, delicious, and broke my brain as to why I had gone this far in life without making this treat a regular in my pursuit of constantly enjoying the most toothsome dishes to be had. I need to go back. Soon.

Its warm, clean design makes it quite welcoming for enjoying avocado toast with smoked salmon, which brings one to a place of spiritual oneness. With white walls, natural wood-grain tables and countertops, Toastique's design radiates minimalist, urban style while remaining inviting. Any time I have been there, the wait times have been stress-free, and the queues move quickly. Food-wise, you can't go wrong with their avocado toast with smoked salmon. With a generous portion of smoked salmon on top of avocado mash, on perfectly toasted sourdough bread, creating a place of tremendous well-being. The cucumbers, marinated tomatoes, red onion, capers, and a sprinkle of microgreens make for a fully satisfying meal without feeling like you are overdoing it with your life choices. Drink-wise, I always go for cold brew and the cold brew never lets me down there. Last time, they had a peanut-butter cold brew and a black cherry one, both of which were magical. This Toastique delivers every time.

We hoped to find a place that offered decaf coffee since it was late in the day, but really wanted something warm since it was a bit chilly outside. Unfortunately, this location of Toastique does not offer decaf - they only have a single hopper for their coffee, so it is not an offering. We were going to find another place, however, they said how about a hot chocolate or a tea. My friend is vegan and inquired if their hot cocoa was vegan, as most places have dairy in the chocolate. The cashier went to look at the chocolate syrup and also had another person look at it to verify it's vegan. My friend ordered a hot chocolate with oat milk. Even though it was busy, we only waited about 5 minutes for her drink. We appreciated the effort to double check it was vegan, though I do wish they had decaf options.
