The staff members are always very welcoming and greet you as soon as you enter. The atmosphere is so inviting and makes you want to keep coming back. What I love the most about GTN is how knowledgeable they are about their products and how they ultimately want to give you the best experience possible. I'll be a returning customer. All smiles :-)

I came across this small black owned business a few years ago and have been patronizing their…read moreestablishment ever since. The owners of Grind Time Nutrition is a dynamic husband and wife team that really cares about their business. I don't consider Grind Time Nutrition as just another local smoothie shop because they are so much more. Now, what first drew my attention to their smoothies where the low carb options, but what kept me going back where their endless option and great taste. My favorite smoothies of all times must be the Snickers and Butter Fingers. These smoothies are great for breakfast and will keep you satisfied until lunch. Grind Time Nutrition also offer loaded teas as well as ice premium protein coffees. I suggest you try the Bad and Boujee and the Soul Snatcher! As a matter of fact just take a trip around the menu. You won't be disappointed. Grind Time Nutrition is more than just another business, is the It has blossomed into a staple of the community. From the moment you enter the doors you're greeted with a warm hellos and upbeat music. As you're assisted with your smoothie or tea purchase you may notice the monthly fitness challenges or invitation to the next workout session. See Grind Time Nutrition is not just here to sale you another drink, they're interested in your fitness journey as well. You can find them every Monday sweating it out with kickboxing cardio. I'm taking about one fully hour of a total body workout in a motivational atmosphere all for only $6. No contact or commitment. Now no business is perfect and if there's room for improvement then I'm sure Grind Time Nutrition is up to the challenge. For me, if there is one area, they could expand on it is community outreach. I'm not sure how they're giving back to the community or even if it a good time for them to do so but this is something they should think about. When running any business there're many unknows. However, Grind Time Nutrition is doing a lot of things right. They just celebrated their two-year anniversary!! So, if you're looking for a small business to visit then I highly recommend Grind Time Nutrition. Come for the drinks and stay for the friendship.

The Vietnamese coffee's caffeine content is not for beginners. One sip and you can smell colors. The Boba teas are also amazing with so many options! They have games and a fun ambiance inside so you can bring the whole fam or pop-in for a quick drink in the morning. Drinks are the same price as Starbies but much better quality and they don't fill the cups with 80% ice.

Although I wouldn't say that they are my absolute favorite place, they are pretty good and are newer to the area. The ice isn't in chunks, which is good, and they do blend pretty well, athough sometimes there is too much on the bottom of the cup and not mixed in. Not a huge deal. The black sugar one is my favorite, and at this point we've tried almost every one. The interior looks modern, and kept clean. My kiddos likes this place, and overall it's a solid place, so we will continue to visit here!

I visited this restaurant in City Place one week night and found it to be fairly busy…read more Unfortunately I had just eaten Mediterranean food the night before so I was worried I would only see similar food. Actually, they have a good size menu and have some American options along with juices and smoothies so It made ordering easy. They also have a full bar with several cocktails and mocktails. Inside right when you enter is the actual bar with about 6 seats which were full with customers during my entire visit. Their happy hour ends at 6pm, but I arrived at 7pm so I ended up missing the discounted drinks. I ordered the cod and shrimp pita which ended up being slightly different than the regular gyro. I had to set it down after a couple of bites since the wheat pita bread is much thinner than regular pita bread and it kept falling apart on me. I also added a mango mojito. With a name like Island Grill, I sort of expected to see more tropical drinks or rum-based cocktails show up on the menu, but this was about the only one. Overall, my experience was okay, but I don't know if it was good enough for me to return.

I have tried multiple smoothies and have never been disappointed. The wraps and the flatbreads are amazing. Great flavor and great price. I feel it's a healthy alternative to fast food.

The location is very colorful and very clean. Certainly inviting and always greeted when I walk in. I've ordered through the app as well as gone in to order. They are fast and I have never had a problem with my order.

I stumbled upon this spot while searching for a good boba place close to home--and wow, I'm so glad…read moreI did. I rarely leave reviews, but I'm making an exception (selfishly!) because this place deserves all the attention so it never closes. The Vietnamese iced coffee with ube foam--or honestly, any of their foams--is incredible. It's authentic, strong, and packed with flavor. My personal favorite is the banana Biscoff foam... it's next level. They also make their taro paste in-house, and you can absolutely taste the difference. It's rich, fresh, and doesn't have that artificial flavor you get at a lot of other places. If you're thinking about trying it--do it. Support this small business. You won't regret it.

The price is honestly kind of low for the knowledge, product and portion.

That's why this place is such a gem. The price point is surprisingly reasonable, actually better than the average cost of organic products in the area. While hanging out inside, I felt safe and at ease, sipping my drink and googling. The staff member who prepared my to-go order was incredibly friendly and personable. The interior and exterior were both spotless and well-maintained. They even have a cooler for keeping your drinks chilled if you're grabbing something on the go. After I picked up my drinks, one of the staff jokingly suggested "I go to town", so I did! That's the kind of fun, welcoming energy they bring. There are so many great options on the menu that I'm already planning my next visit to try more products. Bonus: it's right across the street from a gym, making it super convenient to grab a protein smoothie before or after your workout. If I were you, I'd definitely stop by and try something, my personal favorite is the Wellness Smoothie.
