Had a great first experience this afternoon :)…read more We tried the flamingo bowl - it was delicious but I agree with other reviews that the base is "watery" compared to other açaí/smoothie bowl places where the bases are thick & stay frozen longer. A small bummer was that the mango fruit toppings came frozen, but I loved the bee pollen & shredded coconut! The server was very kind & helpful, too. Lots of menu options, as well, so I like the variety. Ambiance - there's a sign by the register that encourages customers to take their orders to-go & the available seating is for customers waiting for their order since they don't offer "table service." There's outdoor seating but it's limited (2 tables) & not that pleasant (somewhat dirty). I'm hoping to go back to try the juices in the future

Whoever owns this establishment needs to hire more employees, there was one girl working the register and making everything as well. For the amount they charge they should be able to staff the place sufficiently. In my honest opinion, the amount you pay, plus the wait time, you might as well go somewhere else.

Absolutely loved my experience at Perks Coffee House! From the moment I walked in, the vibe was…read morewarm and welcoming -- and a huge part of that was our barista Ady. Her personality is infectious, she's friendly, attentive, and genuinely made the whole visit feel special. Give that woman a raise! On the food side -- wow. The Perks Panini was amazing, seriously one of the best I've had. Perfectly pressed, great flavors, no notes. And then there was the 32 oz carrot cake drink... out of this world doesn't even cover it. I don't know how they packed that much flavor into a cup but I was not complaining. I could drink that every single day. This place has great food, great drinks, and even better people. Perks has officially earned a regular customer. Highly recommend!

The only issue I had was the customer service. I came here Saturday the 23rd around 3:00-3:30 PM…read morewith 2 friends. The girl at the counter was on the phone before taking our order. She saw us walk in, and it took about 5 minutes before she acknowledged us and said she'd be with us. We honestly didn't mind waiting at first, but while standing there we could hear her personal conversation on the phone. At first we thought it was work related or maybe she was taking an order, but she was actually giving someone directions on how to post photos on her damn IG .SMH. When she finally took our order, one of my friends asked questions about the drink she wanted, and the employee was pretty short with her answers. My friend ended up getting what seemed like strawberry milk instead of the coffee drink with strawberry foam/syrup she expected, so unfortunately her drink was kind of a mess. Me and my other friend got the Seattle Freeze, and that was actually really good super delicious. We sat down and about 10minutes later she went right back on the phone. Another customer came in a couple with their kid and this time she clearly saw them walk in. The customers stood there waiting and looking at her, but she still didn't acknowledge them. Then she says whoever she was talking to on the phone..." Oh...customers just walked in" when the customers had literally been standing there already watching her. This is unprofessional ..customers were not a priority at all. The wait itself wasn't the issue, it was more the fact that she didn't seem to care.

I hate to write this, but my first time there will be the last. I ordered the Orange Chicken Rice…read moreBowl and asked if I could have fried rice instead of steamed rice. No, I could place a second order to get the fried rice. Ok, whatever, I'll take the steamed rice. The Orange Chicken was like rubber. I tried to bite a piece in half and it wouldn't pull apart, so the whole piece went in my mouth and I had to use my fingers to pull it apart which was embarrassing on a first date! It didn't taste good either. I looked for a knife in the plastic silverware, but there was none. I then went for a bite of the rice and it was so stuck together that I really had to jam my fork into it. It had no flavor at all and I was not offered any kind of sauce for it. I got some salt, but it didn't help. It had obviously been in a cup and turned over on a plate (there was no bowl) so I don't see why they couldn't have substituted the fried rice. The carrots were rubbery too. The only thing half way good was the broccoli. I opted for water to drink because I couldn't see paying over $6 for flavored ice tea. I didn't want my date to feel bad for buying me such a horrible meal, so I managed to get a couple of bites down. He asked if I wanted a box. No, but I said yes, again not wanting him to feel bad. I tried the Orange Chicken again when I got home, using my paring knife, and it was still so bad that I threw the whole thing away. There were only 6-8 people in the place, but it was so noisy that I had to keep asking my date to repeat what he said because I couldn't hear him. I was looking forward to a new place to eat and the online menu looked so great... How sad.

This time I wanted to try something different with all natural ingredients like a raw juice. I chose the Optimizer with no ice in medium size. Wow, it cost me $11+. Prices have surely gone up. Optimizer comes with pineapple, beet, carrot, cucumber, celery, and red grapes. I tasted the pineapple, cucumber, and celery, but I didn't really get the rest of the veggies and fruits. I'm sure they were in there, but perhaps certain ingredients overpower the others. It was still a great drink. Staff was okay. Service was quick. They weren't too busy at the time. I'll be back to try their other raw juice drinks next time. Thanks JIU!

When I politely asked the manager why it was taking so long, she responded incredibly rudely and defensively, as if I was unreasonable for simply asking about my order. Even worse, after I asked, the employees seemed to intentionally slow down, chatting while my order still wasn't done. When my food was finally called, I politely asked the employee why people who ordered after me were served first. Once again, I was met with attitude and defensiveness instead of a simple explanation or apology. I was completely polite throughout the entire interaction. Apparently, at Nekter, asking a reasonable question about a 30-minute wait is enough to offend the staff. The wait was bad. The attitude was worse. I won't be coming back.

The fact that it's all the way in Big Bear makes it even more surprising because the fish is always so fresh and the flavors are, of course, amazing. This is genuinely one of the highlights of every trip when I get the chance to come here. I've tried a few of the bowls and they've all been solid, but the Kraken is definitely my go-to. The fish, flavors, and toppings all work so well together. I love everything about this bowl and find myself thinking about it even when I'm nowhere near Big Bear. I'm also glad they were able to move into a bigger location because the old one was much smaller. It can still get PACKED though. On our most recent visit, we came around 3:30 pm on a Monday during the last week of December and waited about 45 minutes to order, then another 20 minutes for our food. They have a self-order kiosk now, which helps keep things moving, but I'd still be prepared for a wait when it's busy. Considering how good the food is, I completely understand why so many people are here. The staff deserves a mention too. They're always so kind, welcoming, and high-energy, which makes the experience even better despite how busy it can get. I seriously love Tropicali. It's wild to me that some of my favorite poke is all the way up in Big Bear, but I always look forward to the next time I can come back. Absolutely worth the wait every time.
