I tried the build-your-own bowl with a mango base, granola, kiwi, mango, strawberries, and honey…read more Overall, it was a little too sweet for my taste. The honey definitely added to the sweetness, and the fruit tasted like it may have been frozen rather than freshly cut. That said, the portion size was generous, everything was put together nicely, and I could definitely see this being a refreshing treat or dessert on a hot summer day. If you have a sweeter palate, you'll probably enjoy it. Next time, I'd skip the honey to let the fruit flavors shine a bit more.

The coconut and pitaya base is very refreshing and just the perfect sweetness. I tried some of my daughter's bowl with a pistachio base but it tasted like an artificial pistachio. I'll stick to the coconut pitaya.

Yummy açaí that comes with unlimited toppings. The size is definitely much smaller than expected,…read moreand they were a little skimpy on the fruit. I ordered to-go and the açaí had already melted so it was more of a smoothie bowl than an acai bowl. All the ingredients were fresh and high quality though. Pick up was convenient and smooth. There was just one person working at the time I stopped by around lunch time. This is a nice acai option for the Evanston area. But my favorite acai option is Bonita Bowl in Park Ridge. They have different base options and their sizes are much larger. Plus they stuff the top with lots of fruit.

I'd love to give this more than one star but to be honest, I walked in trying to get an açaí bowl…read more The menu does not have a description of what goes into the bowl so I asked and the gentleman behind the bar but he could only tell me "layers" and açaí. Like... there is a picture here what is in this picture? "layers" Was all he could tell me. I will say there was a language barrier so that contributed to my inability to make sure I got what I wanted. My suggestion would be go to another smoothie bar that has better descriptions on their menu. This one was quite confusing on all levels.

The food is okay, a bit overpriced and not much vegan or vegetarian options. It seems like they…read morejust want to make money selling things to people who eat dead animals. Plus when the check came, they gave us another table's check which was double, and they said that they cleared it up, but they wouldn't give us avoided receipt. The story, the waitress told us, and the story, the hostess told us were completely different. So we're still not sure if we got charged over $130 for the other tables check. My check was less than half of that, because I only ate by myself and my party that was with me, just had water. They said they fixed the bill, but they charged my card twice, with no voided receipt, shown to us, so you be the judge. They did give me a free vegan cookie, supposedly it was vegan and when when I got home. It was not fresh at all and I threw it out.

Things I love about Awesome Juice bar: - they're open every…read moreday! - friendly staff and service - the acai bases are made to order, and the menu options are extensive, e.g. peanut butter acai, various fruits, etc. I originally thought for example the mango and peach were pieces of fruit on top of the acai base, but it's all blended together AND THEN you can add 4 toppings. A couple areas of opportunity: - the acai base could use more flavor. I didn't get much peach flavor coming through in mine. - the fill (amount of acai base in the bowl) seemed slightly low. The 16oz bowls start at $12.90, which is about $0.50-$1 less than other equivalent offerings in the North Shore. Parking is tight in this strip mall lot (by Subway/Jiffy Lube). Have an awesome day!

I discovered Kandy Crush Melt via yelp after I searched 'Boba Tea' within a radius of me while in…read moreSkokie. Ranked number two at the time, it became an instant bookmark for me being that I absolutely love boba tea drinks. And honey, it was a must visit once I discovered the Oreo Shake which literally made my mouth salivate! Thanks to Ashley S, who shared a picture of it via yelp. I visited post getting off of work prior to driving towards Edens Expressway; its location sits not too far from downtown Skokie, an area that I frequent. I honestly feel like you have to be in search for Kandy Crush Melt because it sits off of Oakton St, yet on Kenton Ave. In my opinion, there needs to be some sort of signage off of Oakton Ave that would capture the interest of individuals driving along Oakton St. Even though I knew what I wanted to order before visiting, I took my time looking at the menu, just to confirm the items. And when I was ready, the employee took my order, and I ended up ordering the Oreo Shake as visited for. As I waited, I was given a free sample of Mini Pancake Bites which were freaking delicious! I finished every bit of what was given because I had not ever tasted anything as delicious as that Nutella syrup. Immediately after finishing off the Mini Pancake Bites, I began taking sips of the Oreo Shake which I must say looked wonderful! Eek! Brain freeze! Tehehe, these taste buds of mine were surged with that delicious Oreo taste as anticipated. From then on, every sip was a mouthful of joy as I drove, resulting in a slight grin that not even traffic on the Expressway could break, I kid you not. There was a point while driving along the Expressway that I questioned if I would be able to finish it off; thinking to myself that it was good that I ordered a medium size Oreo Shake rather than a large because that shake, good Lord; the medium was definitely enough. Being that I had a great experience, I would gladly order from Kandy Crush Melt again when in the Skokie area. For future orders, I can surely see myself ordering via yelp in order to make it an in-and-out visit while on the go for sure.
