Fruta Loca - Loaded nachos with stale nacho very disappointed - Desserts Near Me - Merced, California

We arrived at 6:15 and the store doesn't close until 8pm but the girl working on 4/13/25 looked annoyed that we walked in. We asked for elotes but they were out so we decided to get strawberries and crema and a Fruta loca. The whipped cream is super watery and they is barely any chamoy and tajin on the fruta loca. There was also a couple that walked in after and the girl working was super rude to them acting like they couldn't order because she said there was 30mins left until closing. After she served them it was 6:40 and closed the door on another customer even though they were still supposed open. There is no way those two things should have cost us $37 and the thing is it doesn't even taste good. What a rip off. The owner needs to talk to his employees about their attitudes and how to treat customers! read more

I bought elote through DoorDash and it was greyish with back stuff in it. It smelled really bad and it wasn't the cheese. It was the corn. Never thought a place could mess up elote but here we are. Would have taken a pic but I couldn't deal with the smell. read more

this was my first time coming to this location and as i entered the girl who was on the clock on 04/06/25 at around 5:20pm was very rude and didn't greet us properly. Instead she stated that we couldn't eat here but i just wanted to order a bionico. They didn't have bananas and apples for the item so had to get an ice cream. I felt uncomfortable while eating my ice cream in the store so i left. The young lady also stated that where i sat she needed to mop but she could've waited to mop when she would close the store. Overall I am unsatisfied with this service. I would suggest that the owner of the store should talk to the employees about manners to the costumers. read more

lowkey was kinda disappointed this time. i went in and the lady straight up didn't acknowledge or tell me to give her a moment and talked to this other lady who wasn't even in line. i got a corn in a cup and i asked with everything including hot cheeto topping and lime which i did not get either and still paid $10. the quality has gone down and doesn't justify the pricing. they were good to me when they first opened up but def changed over time. read more

Love this place Fresh fruit Good service Great people Yummy smoothie Enjoy Go there read more

Honestly this is robbery. I only came because my mom wanted it but almost $20 for pepino locos!? And .75 for extra mayo and .75 for extra cheese is crazy! They are over charging forsure. The food is decent whatever but not for those prices ill probably not come again. Ive been here before several times but not since the "slight price increase" id say this is more than slight. Totally up to you weather you want to over pay or not. The food is whatever not worth this price. read more

Fruta Loca - Desserts Near Me - Merced, California

We were craving something refreshing on this very hot day so decided to stop by a treat. I had the mangonada and my daughter ordered the fresas con crema (strawberries & cream). We were both happy with our choices. The mango was perfectly ripe and delicious and my daughter said her strawberries were sweet and her crema was very creamy. The customer service was on point and friendly as always! They also have many fresh fruits and tasty snacks to choose from and a daily lunch special. read more

My daugther and i went yesterday to buy ice cream. First thing I hear from the lady with long lashes, "I'm so tired, dont want to be here" telling another coworker. Great welcoming girl! The lady who handed the ice creams with her gloves on to the lady who handles money (no gloves on, she had long light straight hair) grabbed my waffle cone with her bare hands, really? Thanks for the germs. Next time we'll stick to ice cream in a cup. read more

Fruta Loca - Fruit - Desserts Near Me - Merced, California

the roasted corn was okay but they were stingy with the mayo, cheese and hot sauce so it was like eating a small cup of plain corn. also, the strawberries with cream didn't taste as good as it looked. the strawberry chunks were HUGE and the cream was extremely watery. for a whopping $21 i was expecting a lot better. read more

My friends here know how to make a potato!!!! OMGOSH vegetarian, and something I can grab so quick! I work on an ambulance but these kind souls save my life regularly read more

Don't go there, they cut the fruit so big when they fill the container is only 3 or 4 pieces and fill all the space with big holes in between for 10.59 dls?!' I have a picture for who ever want to see it. read more

Hella rude when you are asked to wait outside so she can take the next persons order and then was gonna make my order. Ok no problem, but when the next person gets their items and pays before me when I was asked to wait outside for no reason. The number of people inside the store was not exceeded and was still asked to wait outside. My issue is the people behind me were helped and I was asked to wait outside. Zero stars and will absolutely not be returning. read more

Fruta Loca - Desserts Near Me - Merced, California

I probably will not return. I gave this place a shot because I was really craving fruit cup...but $12 for a FRUIT CUP with mangos, cucumber, and jicama is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous. Unless all of those products are farm fresh or organic, it should not cost that much. I understand inflation and prices have gone up but $12?! It was also nothing memorable. There were no prices listed or a real menu and description that I could see. Also a long wait. read more

The best place in Merced to grab a Latino-style snack! I always order a mangonada or cut fruit, not just during the summer but year round.

Fruit is fresh and delicious. So are the Aguas!! .. only problem is that it's SO EXPENSIVE!!!!!... Got cucumber locos and small agua fresca and it was 20.00!!!! Almost an hours pay for cucumbers and fruit water???? As much as I like this place I won't be going back anytime soon. Maybe just for an Agua. Fruit I can buy at the flea market and make my own!!.. Anyways other than that staff is very nice. I gave 2 stars because of prices only. read more

overpriced and pretty ew. food was extra mid. the service was alright. ambiance kinda lame

They need to step up their customer service up a bit. I've gone a few times but this last time was horrible. The young girl working the cash register has to work on her customer service skills. The one star goes to them not letting me know that they were out of the type of cone I wanted. Instead of letting me know, they gave me the one that was on DISPLAY!! I had to explain why I did not want that cone; like seriously!! I wonder how many people had sneezed on it, flys landed on it or people touched it. read more

I ordered 3 corn in a cup with hot cheetos. There was probably 6 other people in the place with me. It literally took them 40minutes to give me my order. I mean.. all they are doing is cutting the corn off the cob thats ALREADY cooked and putting mayo, cheese, and hot cheetos into a cup. There were 3 cooks too. So not sure why it took so long. Staff was nice. But food was extremely pricey for a cup of corn. Now, onto the food handling issues. 1) I do not believe it is okay to have your ice machine next to your food prep area. The vent from the ice machine is blowing directly into the food assembly area, That vent can blow dust and other particles into the food. 2) two of the ladies making and assembling foods were not wearing gloves. Ready to eat food cannot be handled with bare hands. 3) They are using a crock pot which I don't believe is okay to use in a restaurant to hold food temperature. read more

Customer service was okay, prices on the other hand were really expensive. I asked for an Elote Asado and it was marked as three dollars. Instead, I got corn in a cup which was not what I wanted, and was charged seven dollars, the size of the container for the corn was not worth the price. I told the lady I wanted a elote Asado and she said that was what it is. I paid seven dollars for an item that probably cost a dollar to make. Won't be coming here again, really disappointed with this experience. read more

Noticed there was a new place in town and was looking forward to Checking it out! Unfortunately, this place is over priced for its quality as it lacks flavor (essential ingredients). The service was not great either. The girl who took our order was unfriendly and looked irritated as she was taking our order. When I inquired on an item shown on the menu she said she didn't know what it was, they didn't have such item, and finished with "it's just a picture". Not to mention she mumbled and would not speak up. Oh and the her eye roll. We definitely left the business feeling as if we were an inconvenience. Our order total was $38. We ordered 3 elote cups, what was suppose to be a mangoneada with fresas .. we got handed a spicy smoothie, and tostilocos. Hot Cheeto Elote Cup had a large amount of corn which was grrrreaaaat unfortunately that's all it had. All other ingredients were minimal. We do love the fact that this is the only place like this opened up into the late evening hours!! read more

I came in and ordered an horchata, and an elote and it was delicious! Great spot. I'll definitely be coming here often!

Came to tryout Fruta Loca for the first time, I was not disappointed. Katlynn provide excellent customer services and prepared orders in a timely manner. The Lemonade Loca Aqua Fresca taste amazing, all natural with no artificial sugars. I recommend to anyone who wants to try something new or craving fruit. I will definitely be going back. read more

I had a wonderful experience, I went on Wednesday and found my drinks half off. Staff friendly and very helpful. Let's keep them working.

The ice cream taste HORRIBLE. I was so exited that this place was going to open, I tried so many samples of ice cream and it was embarrassing because I just didn't like any of them they were bad and tasted like plastic. Therefore I ordered their corn to see if it would be any better but it was also very bad and didn't taste any bit like the authentic Mexican corn. A little disappointed, won't be coming back. read more

I was really excited about this place, but the stuff is extremely artificial. Their aguas frescas aren't homemade, their paletas don't have that natural taste. If it was natural, this place would be MUCH better. read more

A little over priced for quality. Its hot in the resturant and makes it unpleasant to be inside. I like the free test trials. Probably will go back. The aguas are good. The nachos...ehhh. read more

Their agua frescas LITERALLY TASTE LIKE WATER! We purchased both the mango and the watermelon at the speedway and they BOTH tasted the SAME! We waited in line for over half an hour for this watered down, not even sweet agua fresca that had bare minimum fruit flavor. Fucking wack. read more

Great service! Many many many options! You just have to try something once to see what you like. Great place for kids. Desserts are made fairly quickly! Seating is a little tight. read more

I love the variety of desserts they carry. The only down for me was that the place was not kept clean I understand it gets busy but I have seen many places making sure their tables, floors and bathrooms are somewhat decent. Not saying they were dirty on the inside or unsanitary--that part looked clean for what I could see but they could definitely work on the trafficked and used common areas. There were a lot of teenage kids and families definitely a place to let your kids hang out but if your an adult you may prefer to take your stuff to go. The owner was friendly. Would probably go back. read more

The place is so cute and they literally have everything! Food was bomb! I got fruit and chicharrones and they let you sample! I got to sample the mango smoothie which was super natural, so good and refreshing. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND read more

My boyfriend and I went on a Tuesday night and we received EXCELLENT customer service. Katlynn helped us and she went above and beyond customer service. Not only is the customer service good and the food is good but they have a bunch of deals every day that come in handy. Best place to get your elotes and aguas! read more

Love this place keep going almost every week love their Diablitos and their mango nada us
