The interior of the coffee house is small but has enough space for a quick pickup and go. The young lady behind the counter was pleasant and welcoming. Although most of the menu options were for breakfast, there were some small bite lunch items. Some of the empanada choices were spinach, chicken, beef, and a Mexicana. I ordered two chicken empanadas for a total of $8.00. The first bite had plenty of chicken, but the second bite was sweet, too sweet. Aside from the chicken, it had sweet raisins. I like raisins but not in my empanadas; it's not a good mix. Unfortunately, I will pass on the empanadas but may still try breakfast.

El pollo estaba jugoso, pero el bistec estaba muy seco y correoso. El puerco no saboreaba fresco. Hemos pedido aquí anteriormente y todo había estado bien, pero esta vez fue decepcionante.

I like to support all of the ethnic establishment on Long Island, since there aren't enough of them; especially if they're family-owned! First, the Cafe: Their menu (see my photos) is extensive: Fresh pulp juices, Brazilian snacks, burgers sandwiches, Tapas, sweets and fresh breads! There is so much to explore here! I wasn't particularly hungry on the day I went, so opted to try two of their snacks; while my friend tried a burger and cheese breads: -- Frango com Catupiry (chicken w.cheese) ($6.23): this is a traditional Brazilian snack item filled with shredded chicken and cheese. This was mildly seasoned (maybe too mild) but packed with chicken and cheese. Very rich and heavy. Don't forget to ask for their green sauce and hot sauce to go with this. -- Carne e Queijo Pastel (beef & cheese) ($6.23): this snack item was made to order and freshly fried to perfection. The beef and cheese were mildly spiced (again, maybe too mild for me) but went well with the tomato relish they served with it. Ask for their green and hot sauces! -- X-Pichanha ($18): The person who had this Pichanha burger loved it! It's a rather large burger, and came with fries. Half was taken home. They said they would order this again! -- Pão de queijo (Brazilian Cheese Bread) (.70¢ each): the person who had this loved it so much, they ordered more to take home! The Market: Right next door to the Cafe is a small market, packed with Brazilian treasures! Their shelves, fridge and freezer are filled with Brazilian goodness! They even have a butcher shop full of different meats and sausages! Bonus items: bathing suits and flip flops!!! lol Take your time to peruse the market and you'll be amazed at what unique things you come across! I must add that customer service & hospitality in both the Cafe and the Market, were outstanding!! So friendly, welcoming, accommodating, and helpful! Welcome to the neighborhood!! I look forward to many return visits!

The service is great. We tried a variety of items starting with the Healthy Glow and Green Machine which were both refreshing and a great way to start. The Italian market salad was loaded and really filling, and the Greek salad had all the classics done right. We also had the Mexican salad in a pita which was fresh and something a little different. For mains, the turkey burger and salmon burger were both solid, clean options that still delivered. The buffalo chicken sandwich added a nice kick. The house made gyro chicken with tzatziki kept things simple and fresh. We also tried an assortment of skewers including steak, pork, chicken, lamb chops, salmon, shrimp, and swordfish which gave a great mix of everything. The side of house made quinoa tied it all together nicely. Overall, a great spot if you're looking for clean, fresh, and filling meals made with quality ingredients. Definitely worth checking out.

We've been regular customers for a while because the chicken is consistently good, but after this…read moreexperience, we won't be returning. Our group ordered several chicken combos, which include refillable sides (rice, salad, French fries, and vegetables), while the chicken itself is not refillable. From the start, the service was disorganized. We had multiple servers, yet they repeatedly forgot items. Some people in our group waited a long time for their vegetables, while others had to ask multiple times before receiving their French fries. It honestly felt as though the staff was doing everything possible to avoid bringing guests everything that was included with the meal. My husband and I requested one refill of rice. Since we didn't finish it, we simply asked for the remaining rice we had already been served to be packed to go. The server took the plate but never returned with it in a to-go container. When we asked about it, another server accused us of trying to get an extra refill, claiming we had already reached the refill limit. We explained several times that we were not asking for another refill we only wanted the rice we had already been served packed to go. Despite that, he continued insisting we were trying to get more than we were entitled to. What made the situation even worse was his dismissive response of "whatever" after we tried to explain the misunderstanding. Being treated as though we were trying to take advantage of the restaurant was frustrating and completely unacceptable. Unfortunately, this wasn't completely out of character. Most of the servers have consistently come across as rude during our previous visits. The owner, on the other hand, has always been friendly and does a good job connecting with customers. However, this time he was only a few feet away, appeared aware of what was happening, and never stepped in to address the situation or make things right. Allowing staff to treat customers this way reflects poorly on the restaurant. My advice to anyone dining here is to pay close attention to the sides that come with your meal and make sure you receive everything you're entitled to. We left feeling that the restaurant advertises refillable sides but does everything possible to delay or limit them, only to accuse customers of asking for more than they're entitled to. After years of overlooking the rude service because we enjoyed the food, this experience was the final straw. The way we were treated guaranteed that we will never return.

I felt like Hercules after - great food, real food, quality fare, energizing, filling and so tasty. The 6 of us ordered a ton I mean a mega ton of food! The garlic shrimp was to die for.

I came here about 1-2 months ago on a weekend to grab some food for takeout as this place is pretty…read moreclose to me. A friend had told me the food here was pretty good. The place is ultra small and easy to miss on Post Ave. Inside, it's not huge but they have a bunch of tables and their lighting is pretty good. So I grabbed one of their menus that they had by the cash register and took a look. I was impressed because their prices seemed very reasonable. Key word being 'seemed'. I decided to order their enchiladas platter with red sauce, which was listed at $14. Unfortunately, when I went to pay for my meal, I was told that the menus were old, and that the real price for the meal was closer to $20. I might've even paid more than that with tax included; don't remember 100%. But that was very disappointing. I told the young lady who was working there that they price was listed at $14 on their own menu; she responded that the correct price was listed somewhere on their board. Though I'm pretty sure it was unintentional, I felt a bit duped. Anyways, I took my food back home to see how it was. I couldn't help but to compare this enchilada platter to the one offered at Little Mexico about a block away cause they offer the same thing. So, first off, Little Mexico gives you a ton of chips and salsa when you order a platter from them. This was not present at Juicebox. The platter at Little Mexico definitely gives you more food overall. Anyways, I dug in, and the platter from Juice Box wasn't bad. The flavor was pretty good and there wasn't anything too offensive about it, but unfortunately it just pales in comparison to the enchiladas at Little Mexico. I couldn't help but to be disappointed that the enchiladas platter at Juicebox was less food, no chips, tasted worse, and was more expensive. The enchiladas platter at Little Mexico comes out to about $17-18 after tax. So those were my thoughts overall. So that was my experience with Juicebox Cafe. I might give it another shot in the future cause it's close to my home, but I don't feel inclined to, especially after the pricing debacle I experienced and the price I paid didn't seem justified.
