The smoothie is "not bad." Considering the price, that would be a minus. The server was really kind towards my daughter, so additional points for that. read more

Jamba - Orange dream smoothie - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I think Jamba Juice has 2 locations within Ala Moana shopping center. This review is for the one at the 1st floor Makai market food court location. Jamba Juice, like Subway, and many other restaurants try to bring the healthy lifestyle to the people of Hawaii. Freshly made smoothies and juice products help facilitate such a lifestyle or option for those of y'all who enjoy smoothies after a challenging day at the office, a day at the mall, or just because. For myself though, it was a bit of both of health and convenience. That and getting in my fruit servings for the day. It's quite convenient to have Jamba Juice here in Hawaii to remind us of this fact that health is wealth and the most important part of a great lifestyle. My experiences here at Jamba Juice is fairly typical at this location. Typically, there are many people who are in line for their orders, compared to the other one in the mall, which is not so much. I dislike the lines, but having steady business is good. For the most part though, my wait time is typically about 10 minutes or less. As soon as you get your order in and pay, you just need for the staff at Jamba to fill your order and you're out with your drink(s). My favorite as of late is the chocolate moo'd. It's not a real chocolate milkshake per say, but it's more of a healthier version that can be beneficial to help those chocolate cravings. I also enjoy the strawberries wild and also the cold buster, whenever I need to get over that onset of stubborn cold/sniffles symptoms. The orange steam machine is pretty dope too. I actually had one last week on a typical trip to Ala Moana shopping center. The overall experience here at this Jamba Juice - Ala Moana shopping center, 1st floor Makai Market is pretty okay. The lines are long but the service is quick and friendly. Basically you tell them what you want and pay. There's not much interaction besides a quick hi to the cashier and the staff who calls your name when the order is ready for pick up. It's usually crowded here at the 1st floor food court, but you get used to it. If there is a line, it's usually short and moves fairly quickly. Not much else to say, other than that Jamba Juice has a pretty good assortment of smoothie products and a decent amount of flavors you can add to the base smoothie so you can have that perfect combination to call your own. Sometimes, I would add strawberries into my chocolate moo'd smoothie just to give it some kick when my mood suited me. Of course, it does cost extra, so be mindful of that. It is in a food court, so there's not much room for the actual restaurant itself. It's basically a fast food counter, but there's plenty of seating options in the food court, but current Covid rules applies here. Whatever you do at Ala Moana shopping center, consider coming by to Jamba Juice to get a refreshing smoothie to add a layer of awesome to your day. I'd recommend the aforementioned chocolate moo'd, peanut butter moo'd, or the strawberries wild. It will make you go wild! This Jamba Juice location is humbly located at the 1st floor Makai Market food court at the Ala Moana shopping center. It's basically next to the north entrance of the food court, where the escalators are. Ala Moana is physically located at 1450 Ala Moana Boulevard in Honolulu. They accept major credit cards, but accept cash as well. But in the age of Covid-19, credit cards are generally preferred. As far as the parking situation goes, you're at Ala Moana shopping center, there's plenty of parking here. Just make sure you know where you are parked, so you can find your vehicle quickly, as the mall is quite large enough to make you get confused a little bit. If you are like me, many bus routes start or ends service here at Ala Moana shopping center. You need to choose the right route(s) for you to get here for your day of shopping and your fix of Jamba Juice. The prices have been rising steadily over the years. I remember the price for a medium was about $5 something 10 years ago, but now it's over $6. It is what it is. Jamba Juice is known to be health business, but you can go off the rails if you wanted to. Come and enjoy your daily fix today! 4.0 stars for the overall experience 3.0 stars for the prices. 4.0 stars for the smoothies and the service. Support local! B read more

Hungry for a light lunch today. Fruits sounded good. In the neighborhood and saw Jamba Juice. Acai Primo Bowl! Perfect added toppings Strawberry, Blueberry, and Bananas. Killer, was satisfied and content. Best thing to eat on a humid windless day. read more

Visited here and they suck! People like this see a tourist and just assume they don't need to do their job. Just now, we got 3 drinks and 2 of them were only 3/4 of the way filled up! What a rip off! If I pay for a large I want a large, not a medium in a large cup. Sad that people can't do there job. It tasted like pure water as well. (3pm on Tuesday, August 6th) read more

KOKO HEAD is one of the new smoothie creations by Chef Leanne Wong. I'm not usually a big fan of Jamba Juice because the smoothies are too sweet and don't really keep me full for longer than two hours. I've probably gone to Jamba Juice once in the past 2 years. HOWEVER, last week I was walking past the Jamba in Hawaii Kai and saw a new sign that had Chef Leanne Wong from Koko Head Cafe and her three new "creations" for Jamba Juice in Hawaii so I walked in and decided to try it. I loved it! It's not too sweet, and the chia seeds kept me full for longer than 2 hours. I tried it again at the Jamba on Ward Ave, and then last night I was really craving it again but it was late, and there are only 3 locations that open til 10pm, this one was one of them (the other two in Waikiki). LOCATION: This Jamba is located right across Nitrogenie in the new Ewa Wing at Ala Moana center. It used to be here before the renovation, but now it looks a little different. They are open UNTIL 10PM when other locations close at 9pm. There are three new "signature creations" by the chef (only at Hawaii locations): COCOA MOCO: acai, greek yogurt, banana, chocolate chip, pumpkin seed, almond, honey KOKO HEAD: acai, almond milk, vegetable juice, kale, blueberry, banana, chia seed, honey ($5.79/$6.09/$6.79) BACKYARDS BOWL: pitaya, almond milk, greek yogurt, coconut cream, chia seed, granola, pineapple, banana, coconut, almond, honey ($9.09/16oz, $12.09/24oz) PRICES: they are $0.10 cheaper in Hawaii Kai, I didn't realize different locations have different prices. Good thing I take pictures. SERVICE: as other yelpers have mentioned, the service isn't the best here, and my smoothie still had chunks in it, unlike the ones I had at the other two locations. The girls also didn't know how many calories were in my Koko Head smoothie, which doesn't really matter because I'm still going to get one again today. read more

It's always watery and not as flavour as other Jamba juices I've been to. Have been 3x and have noticed the lack of flavour

Just grabbed a nice kale orange 16oz fresh juice on the way home from bootcamp. It was so fresh and healthy. There were lots of people waiting for their drinks when we go there around 5:15pm. But no one at the register. The cashier was nice and quickly took my orders with a smile. The drinks came out about 5-7 minutes later. We drunk them on the way home. Light dinner tonight! read more

Conveniently located on the Nordstrom (Ewa side), NEW section of the mall. Typical Jamba Juice. VERY good but also EXTREMELY overpriced, thank goodness I had a gift card. The service was fantastic, pleasant and to top it off they offered to split our large juice into two smaller cups so my twin 5yr olds wouldn't bicker about sharing. Thank you for a very good experience. read more

Malls and smoothies go hand in hand. Do you remember that old smoothie store, Orange Julius? Back in the 80's every mall had an Orange Julius. Now it's Jamba Juice. Ok, what ever. That's cool. Orange Julius was always operated by uppity pompous high school girls, and this Jamba Juice reminded me of the 80's. Not gonna lie, I kinda liked it. The girls looked confused when I called it a Jamba Julius. I didn't know what Matcha was when I ordered it and neither does spell check now that I'm writing about it (red squiggly line). It turns out I don't like it, which is weird because I like almost everything. My taste buds also gave Matcha a red squiggly line. Oh well, you live and you learn. read more

It's always nice to have a Jamba Juice of any sort after working out. It's refreshing and just so healthy. Trying this new kale orange juice and it's so delicious. Not a very big fan of kale however with the mixes of fruits it's worth trying. Thanks jamba read more

Jamba - Kale Orange Juice - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This is a quick review for the Ala Moana Jamba Juice right across from nitrogenie. It was 8:40am and based on how long they took to acknowledge me I assumed incorrectly that they were closed. As soon as I started walking away they called out "be right with you". It was over 3 1/2 minutes before they said this - at some point I hit the timer on my Apple Watch because it was taking so long. Service was pretty darn fast after that. Maybe they were just getting into gear for the day. I ordered an acai bowl so the actual preparation was pretty darn fast. The acai bowl was tasty so all this place has to do is acknowledge the customer a little quicker and things will be better. read more

Great Jamba location. My fiancé and I went in to try something new and yummy for our mall shopping. I went onto the secret menu and decided to try out the sour patch kids and tropical paradise w/ half strawberry half banana. I wanted to use a promo coupon thing that I was emailed, and two different gift cards on the Jamba app. After we made our special order requests, I tried to use the coupon but it was no good. First my reception stunk, then the WiFi. The cashier was very patient with me, but then realized that the coupon/promo gift card was only for the mainland and wouldn't work at this location. She was very apologetic. We then went to the app, and she happily manually punched in the card numbers for the two different cards. Because it took a while to finish paying, our drinks were already ready. They were delicious! Major hit! We loved them. They were pretty sugary (as most things are on the secret menu), but we loved them. Overall, we had a rough experience. But it wasn't the fault of the store or employees at all. It was my phone, the coupon itself not pointing out locations or states that don't accept the coupon, and my personal fault for not having the app and coupon loaded by the time I hit the register. The employees were patient, the drinks were very yummy, the store was clean, and very accessible location right beside the mall parking structure. Good experience and I definitely recommend this Jamba Juice store! read more

Jamba - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This place is great! Service was quick and friendly, it's in a food court so there is lots of seating, and the variety of juices and smoothies is astonishing. I don't usually frequent Jamba Juice, but after visiting this one I may just have to get a bit more Jamba in my life. They had some great vegan options, all marked dairy free on the menu which I really appreciated. I got the Peach Perfection and it truly was perfection on a humid Hawaiian day. Getting something that is equally healthy and delicious is always my goal, and that goal was achieved here. Pro tip: if you sign in to the Jamba Juice wifi, you can get a coupon for $3 off your first order by signing up for their loyalty program. They have wifi, coupons, AND vegan smoothies??! I wish I could live here! read more

I've come here multiple of times and did mobile orders for my acai primo bowl. However this morning I had the rudest employee. I walk into the side where customers go to pick up their mobile orders, the employee stares at me and says rudely "mobile order?" and I said "yes" but before I could even say my name she gave me my order and left. What if I had ordered something else ? Aren't you guys suppose to verify the name for the order? But the best part is when she gave me my bowl she didn't even say "thank you" or "have a nice day" and didn't even offer me a bowl. I only go to this jamba juice because its on my way to work but at this point I don't think I will be ever coming back. read more

This is for the Jamba located on the 2nd floor, near the mauka parking garage, and more ewa of Longs Drugs. Make sure to have your Rewards login/app. I only like to get the jamba smoothie when there's a deal, like 50% off. It was really nice when I went in at about 11:30am on a Saturday. There was no line, I made my order, and barely only waited a few moments and my large caribbean passion was done already! When you use the 50% off offer, it was only about $4. I'm all about value, and so worth it. I always tell myself to try to pick a different smoothie, but I always end up getting the Caribbean Passion. Based on the ingredients, it seems like this drink has the most variety in fruits/juice. It's got a slight hint of tartness, just enough to make it refreshing. Been a longtime customer of Jamba Juice, though not as environmental friendly, I do miss those styrofoam cups! Now the smoothies are served in plastic clear cups, so the blended crushed ice melts a little faster now? Suck 'em up!! read more

Sis went to LV shop to pick up her online order and while waiting for her, I was starving and thirsty. I normally bring bottle of water with me in the car to keep me hydrated, unfortunately not this day. She finally got out of the store and we met back near the parking garage. I told her I needed something to eat, a snack and need some fluid some thing like Starbucks. But we stumbled in front of this shop which is very conveniently located near the parking garage we parked in. Sis told me she got a very old Jamba Juice card, viola, Jamba it is. Whenever I go to JJ, I always get their peanut butter banana smoothie. Soon as we walked in, we got some Aloha greetings. That's a plus. Put in my order, and it didn't take long for them to complete since we were the only customer at the time. Good smoothie as always. It filled me up. If you are in the area, go get your banana and your peanut butter in a cup. Just finishing your work out, or run or whatever it is and need to get protein-loaded, go get you 27gram protein, Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie for the win. read more

Down and dirty since I saw another Yelp Friend review this place too that I follow. NEW NEW NEW venue look! They have updated the flow! It used to be in the busiest place in Ala Moana Mall- great for Jamba Bad for little old grams that get knocked over by Jamba Infused Keiki. The remodel should really help with the flow of people in and out of the counter line and for pick ups to speed things along for the most part. Same Jamba Menu! I go for the Large Strawberry Whirl- I am boring and I like it. Food section looks smaller/ appears smaller- due to the set up of the storefront. If you needed a bigger menu choice visually- Ward may be better. They really do try to make it as fast as humanly possible- why would they want you mad at them after you ordered? read more

Jamba - latest update email from Jamba - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Jamba Juice located on the second floor mountain side of the Ewa Wing facing the parking garage at Ala Moana Center. The shop occupies the corner between the walkway and Ninja Sushi. Coming from the entrance facing the parking garage a person will see the counter in front. There will be a black rope divider which forms a line for the customers to follow. Customers would stand in line until they reach the counter to place an order of a blended drink. My recent visit I stood in line after several individuals. I reached the counter and was greeted by the employee. I placed an order of a small banana berry. Darn it...forgot to use my gift card. I paid using cash. The shop also accepts credit cards as payments. After I paid for my drink I noticed that there was a cold case towards the right side of the counter and it had bottles of water. I also noticed a surfboard mounted on the wall above the windows. I noticed there were few tables and chairs outside of the shop for customers to use. Jamba Juice would be one of few spots I would go to in order to get a drink. Employees are friendly and the shop was clean during my visit. 3/100 read more

9/4/21 7:49 No greeting on the way in. Short Asian girl took my order with an attitude as if she was trying to rush me out of there (even though it was slow and they had no customers). No thank you upon transaction. Looks like they were all closing down when the sign says they close at 9? she also rolled her eyes when I said thank you when she handed me my drink?? Don't know what that's about. read more

So I use to work for Jamba and know some of the in's of what they are about. They make their own fruit juices and it's just juice, no sugar is added. The fruit is flash frozen so nothing is added to that. With that being said, any of the all fruit smoothies are excellent for Paleo peeps or the fresh squeezed juices. This Jamba is always busy but the line goes pretty fast bcs they try to serve everyone within 2 mins from start to finish. I love the Acai bowls, their blend of juice and fruits has a great taste profile. I've tried a lot of other bowls around town and Jamba's in the top 3. I also like their breads and snacks, they have been trying a lot of different snack companies the past few years and I like seeing what they bring in each time I go in. read more

Whatever you do try not get the bowls. I recently came to get my bowl and when I just got it, it wasn't more icey/frozen then I would like it to be.... The bottom part is already watery/ melted with barely any ice in it... If you can find a seat in the food court better eat it right away because it's already melted... Not only that the acai part was a small portion, for the price I'm paying for it, I rather go somewhere else and get a better and bigger acai bowl... I'll just stick to just the smoothies from Jamba from now on. read more

The staff was nice, it wasn't crowded and my order was done quickly. It was delicious.

Coming in on a sunny Friday afternoon (when is it not sunny here?!), I was parched from the sojourn from Waikele back to town. After scrambling through two other stops in the center, this was my final destination. Remembering my 16 oz. complimentary card from Northern California, the cashier ran the card through and sadly told me that it isn't valid here. Undeterred, I ordered a 16 oz. Orange Dream Machine with immunity boost and joined about eight or nine other waiting customers. While waiting, the cashier really stood out as each person or party entered; she greeted them with "Hi, how can I help you?" with a friendly smile. Working in retail, this is not the easiest thing to do on an all-day basis. The drink maker looked a bit swamped, but efficiently completed the orders. Always nice to see both customers and store staff with smiles or, at least, no frowns. read more

I like the fact that they opened up a branch in the Ala Moana Center's Makai Marketplace, but don't like the way their signs read. I noticed that there is always some confusion with where the patrons are to stand. (As well as at their location next to Sears on the upper level.) I understand the need for some organization because of these busy locations, but there are always people standing and waiting to order on both ends and people who arrive after me always get helped first since the end of the line is placed right at the register. Quite confusing as hell. Otherwise their drinks are pretty decent. Nothing too spectacular. They do hit the spot when you're pregnant though. Although I don't think their drinks should be priced as high as they are. Occasionally I will return when I have the time to wait and am craving a fruity smoothie. Food: *** Service: *** Ambiance: *** Value: ** read more

Great friendly service and tasty Jamba choices! Twisted apple cinnamon bread is a great combo with the Jamba Juice!

I hate to be the one always rating my experiences based on monetary out put, I can't help it. You are much better off getting an actual piece of fruit than getting one of these things. It's like the worst parts of Frankenstein in a cup! You think you are getting fruit, but you are not. It's like krab, or mystery meat. Some kind of mixture that is supposed to be good for you, but isn't, really. It's so processed! I got the mangogo, and it f***ed my system up! The name was more appropriate than I ever would have imagined.... Not for me again. read more

I don't go to Ala Moana Center very often due to overcrowding and its huge popularity with especially the tourists. When I went on a Friday in the middle of the day, the line actually wasn't long at all and most of the people there were actually waiting for their orders. Prices are okay and their smoothies and products aren't too bad overall. Probably wouldn't recommend going here on weekends or the holidays if you can't stand the crowds. read more

We love JJ and am so glad the line goes by fast here even with staff training or learning a new recipe. I almost always order the matcha green tea while the kid gets white gummy. Every once in awhile I'll get a carrot juice when I feel I've been lacking in veggies and wanna run some carrots through my system. The shop is spacious, clean and fast moving. Parking is obviously at Ala Moana Shopping Center and like the Mainland, has parking signage that lets you know how many stalls are available on each floor. Yay! read more

I had to revise my previous review. It wouldn't be right if I didn't! All it took was one good experience to change my mind about the unfortunate previous experiences I had at this location. I'd say I'm easy to make it up to! I came in around 1:30pm on a Thursday. A young man assisted me, I ordered the usual: Koko Head with whey protein, extra thick. He had a hard time punching it into the system and apologized for the delay. I later found out he was in training. Cherise ended up assisting him with the input. She also made my drink for me. I took one sip and was pleased! It was the first time my drink had been made to my liking - just the way I had asked, in awhile. I made a b line for her and thanked her for the drink, letting her know it was made so well! She seemed shocked at the compliment. Anyway, thanks Cherise! read more

The great thing about the Jamba Juice at this location is that it's never crowded. It also doesn't hurt that it's close to work, so I can stop buy during my lunch to grab a quick smoothie or one of their blended bowls. The customer service is friendly and efficient. I've never had any trouble with the employees. One of my most recent discoveries is the chocolate strawberry bowl. At $6.59 for the sixteen, the prices are a little steep, but they've got me hooked on this thing. Its a blend of chocolate moo'd and strawberrys and the taste is so addicting. It's got this awesome chocolately berry blend that doesn't taste super sugary at all! To top it off they add granola and sliced bananas. So good~ Parking is a little tough to find, but it's tough in general for the area. I know some people like to park at the Walmart parking lot and just walk over to Starbucks and Jamba Juice. Seems to be pretty safe, but I'm not sure if they tow or not. I usually just walk down Keeamoku. read more

Walked into this location at 8:24 PM today (6/28/18) in hopes of grabbing smoothies for dessert. Two steps into the establishment, the two girls working shouted out, "Sorry, we're closed!"

We look at the hours of operation and like most of the other establishments in the mall, Jamba Juice is scheduled to close at 9 PM on Thursdays. What was even the point of turning away customers like that? Terrible. read more
