I've given this place multiple chances and they always let me down. Mostly for their fruit bowls. They are always out of something which is not their fault but they can't follow instructions on how to build the bowl. I've gotten a bowl 3 times there and every time they mess something up. If I'm paying for extra I expect extra and they don't give it to me. The workers always act like they don't want to be there or do their job. Very awkward, uncomfortable, and I can't go back anymore at this point. read more

These workers always got me fucked up. There's always an excuse to everything but doing their damn job. How you are 2 hours after opening or 2 hours before closing and you're no longer taking juice orders? Make that make fucking sense. These workers have the most "i don't wanna be here" attitude. ALL OF THEM. To the hiring manager, I highly suggest hiring better workers to run your establishment, I really fear one of these days their lazy, rude, and poor customer service will get the worst of me. Your workers care too much about their own conversations rather than attending to customers. read more

The acai bowls here are literally the worst you can get. They're always runny and most of the time you'll be getting a giant hunk of frozen "acai" that hasn't been properly blended into the mix. This is definitely a training issue and should be addressed. I come here always expecting there to be a different experience but it's always the same runny lack luster experience. For the price of they're asking for these bowls this should definitely not be the case. read more

Needed something sweet so decided to get myself a smoothie here. I usually head to Jamba but thought I'd try this place. They have smoothies, bowls, grab and go snacks. You can customize by adding additional toppings and/or mix-ins. I decided on the Lucky Lemon Punch. The flavor was good, not overly sweet but the lemon part was barely noticeable. Still, I finished it as it hit the spot in this warm day. Service was pretty fast during my visit, but I wouldn't say particularly friendly or welcoming. They got the job done and my order was correct so I was happy. Will be back soon again, I'm sure! read more

I was serviced and had my drink made by Micheal L. Literally the worst smoothie everrrrr it was literally melted when i got it and was sickeningly sweet like not normal fruit sweet read more

Terrible service, there's always no line yet I wait 15 min for my order. For mobile orders I always leave specific instructions yet never comes out right. The morning shift workers are too slow. Terrible service read more

First time here and I'm not sure if I'll be going back, first off the line here gets way too long, it does move fast but waiting for the order can take longer. I can't remember the drink I got, but it came with lemonade and it was tooo sour. My friend got the exact same thing and maybe that's why it was sour because the girl made both of our drinks in one blender? Not sure, if that's why but it wasn't good. The prices are pretty pricey, I paid almost $7 for a small drink, Starbucks grande is cheaper then that and BIGGER. maybe it's just this location or maybe, other places are better but I wish I could of gotten my money back. read more

Juice It Up! - Sour drinks - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I typically compare Juice it Up to Jamba (I still prefer Jamba overall) but the addition of the blue bowl is unique and interesting. The blue bowl is sweet and tropical flavored, different from both acai and pitaya. The chia seeds are pretty great, they don't usually get in bowls. If I come back, it'll be to get another blue bowl! read more

Juice It Up! - Blue Bowl! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Thought I could award myself by giving in to my sweet tooth cravings. I just finished a portion of my final, and conveniently walked to this Juice It Up on campus. What's cool about this Juice It Up location is that it has a frozen yogurt bar, Ziiing, inside as well. I debated between a drink versus yogurt, and the drink won in favor. After getting a poor attempt of getting "hit on" by another customer, I ordered a 16oz Orange Blitz (Orange juice, non-fat yogurt, orange sherbet, banana & blueberries) with a Fat Burner boost. (Yes, they do have boosters and you get one free with a drink: Immunizer, Energy, Calcium Plus, Fat Burner, Vita Boost, Protein Power, and Memory Surge). It took about three or for minutes and I got my drink. Now, I've had Juice It Up at other locations, but my drink disappointed me. Yes, "juice" is in the store's name, but I don't expect "juice," when my drink was under the "Smoothie" category. Plus it was a bit too sweet for my taste. Nevertheless, I finished it because I didn't want my $3.75 to go to waste. Service was alright, and nothing special. But it kind of sucks to get a bad drink after doing well on my final. And double sucks when a weird guy tries to hit on you when all you want is a drink. But I can't blame that part on Juice It Up. read more

See all

Today I thought to myself "whoa, it's been a long time since I've had Juice It Up" I thought it was just because I'm always at HDFC and never on main campus - but nope, it's cause Juice It Up kinda sorta sucks. $4.25 gets you a 24 ounce smoothie. I chose the pineapple/mango one. Pineapple sounded good, but maybe it's because the menu is too god damn high and written too god damn small that even though I've had corrective eye surgery I still can't read what is on the top of the menu board. Also, would it hurt to smile?! I love the fact that there was one guy in front of me in line and the two people that came in after me still managed to get their smoothies first. Bleh. I'd rather take my $4 to Starbucks, where the drinks may be smaller but at least it's a lot more fucking welcoming. read more

I prefer this place over jamba juice because of the quality of their drinks. I love their matcha smoothie. I can actually taste fruit and vegetables in it, it also tastes a lot healthier too. The drinks are a bit pricey and the employees are hit or miss. Some of the employees are great or super slow because they are talking a bunch. Also, they shouldn't be talking while dealing with people's food/drinks because of possible contamination of potential spit. This coming from someone who works in the dietary department at a hospital and having a background in nutrition. read more

Bad customer service. The employees are rude and rushed. I place an order at 10:20 just for a regular bowl and didn't receive it until 10:58. I was late to class and didnt enjoy it. They took almost 40 mins to make my bowl. I understand they make not have a lot of employees but that means they should put more people to work so it doesn't so long for people to get their orders. Not even fast food places take this long. read more

Summer was so kind and patient with me while i was trying to figure out what smoothie i wanted. She ended up giving me the mango mania with pineapple and it was so good! Thanks Summer! read more

Mikey was so sweet and friendly! I never really know what to order so he gave me a rundown of the menu to help me choose on what I wanted to order. He helped me choose the raspberry craze and he made the drink perfectly! Will def come here again. read more

Ellie was so nice and very friendly when I came into Juice it up on campus. She made my smoothie perfectly and it was super tasty. Definitely recommend this location. read more

Summer and Mikey are both excellent workers who provide great service. They are always helpful, since I am a regular at the store. They are very nice and give me the best possible experience. read more

I went to juice it up the other day and the cashier, Summer, was super nice and welcoming. She was very patient while taking my order even though I took a while. And Mikey made me a rejuvenator and it was so good even when it was pretty busy! read more

Love Summer the server! This is a great place to get your nutrients. Do it before class!

My only problem with this place is that the yogurt machine has been broken for years. I came back to Calstate LA for graduates and the first thing I did was run to Juice It Up to ask for yogurt thinking that life has changed for the better. To my surprise and disappointment, I am told that the machine is STILL broken. And what's more shocking is that the employees said they don't know when it will be fixed. At this rate, probably never. What am I going to eat from now on? I make it a daily ritual to ask because I am persistent and never give up hope when it comes to their delicious plain yogurt which I faintly remember and took for granted many years ago. I also refuse to purchase any other product they offer until yogurt machine is fixed. Boycotting. read more

Overall, good juice place. Prices are what you'd expect them to be, and they have a wide selection of typical juices. Service is always decent and timely. They have great $1 ice teas that I don't see advertised anymore, but they still sell it every time I go there. I forgot all the different ice tea flavors they have, but off the top of my head I can remember original, mango, watermelon and strawberry. read more

I honestly like their drinks, but the service is terrible! All the times I've been there, its these RUDE girls. If you don't like your job, then quit! Sheeesh The worst experience yet: First, the girl at the register just stared at me blankly when I ordered. And then she didn't even tell me the price, she just stared at me. Okay.......... Then, the girl that gave me my drink. UGH, RUDE. I said thank you, because I was brought up to be as polite as possible (but I guess not so much for these girls). And then the girl mocks me! and says 'thaank youuu'. ALL OBNOXIOUS. 1 star for the drinks. read more

I don't buy smoothies here because most of them use juice blends, and I am very wary of juice blends, but I really like a couple of their raw juices. The Awakener (orange, carrot, ginger) and Rejuvenator (apple, carrot, beet, cucumber, ginger) are very good and they juice it in front of you, so you can make sure they are putting all of your veggies in. I recommend getting the Rejuvenator either without the apple juice or at least replacing it with orange juice. These juices are expensive for what they are ($4.75), but they're the best thing on the menu and quite possibly the healthiest drink on campus (after water, of course..). Their regular acai bowls are pretty good, but a little too sweet. Ask for it with water instead of apple juice-- it is still plenty sweet with the acai, bananas, granola, and honey!! read more

It was my first time trying Juice It Up and I ordered the Seabreeze Squeeze. Staff was very friendly, the place was clean, and I got my order very quick. I'm happy that we have a healthy choice on campus & drinks are very good! read more

Juice It Up! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Almost like a Jamba juice except on campus. The owner is from the San Francisco Bay Area, so we got along just fine. The staff weren't really that friendly all those other times I've been here. It takes 20 minutes to make a mango smoothie.. Like really? 20 minutes? I could have gone over the counter to do it myself since I know how to use a blender too! (Hence one less star, otherwise it woulda been 3 stars.) I think I spend more time making my own smoothies in my apartment than waiting for my smoothie at this joint. The only time I really go is when the owner is in. Other than that, count me out yo! read more

What's the difference between Juice it Up and any other smoothie shop? Well, this place just isn't quite as good.The smoothies aren't the best quality; often times they come out still lumpy. I'm not a huge fan of them, having wasted countless dollars on these smoothies. Plus, they run out of their juice for the smoothies pretty often. Yet there's one thing, in my opinion, saving this place. That thing would be the iced tea. You can get any flavor they have (apple, mango, strawberry, pineapple, papaya, watermelon, etc.). Delicious, affordable (just a dollar, 50 cent refills), and refreshing. Plus, it's the only thing keeping me from finding a new smoothie shop. Well, that and it's the only one on campus. read more

I came here like crazy last year! It's the only "healthy" alternative to the bad food joints on campus. This year, it seems their JUICER is broken. At JUICE it Up!! I waited in a long line to find that out two weeks ago. Today I figured a place that has JUICE in the name must have fixed the juicer by now, right? I go in and it's totally empty, except for the two female employees that were talking about their latest life drama. Neither of the employees acknowledged me as I went inside. They continued their conversation for a while, then one started to make a move slooooowly towards me... still keeping pace with her riveting story...then "Can I help you?". Wow, finally!! So, I gave my order to find out... you guessed it. The Juicer is Broken. End of Story... End of patronage. Guess I'm left with El Pollo Loco and Starbucks. read more

Juice It Up! welcomes college students, LACHSA, and EEPsters a taste of life at home. Ranging from Apple Smoothies to Zebra colored Oreos-- this juice bar offers it all! The management is amazing-- and the ice tea is fantastic! Ice Tea is 1.00 and it's 24 ounces-- and you can add watermelon inside for free! Each refill costs 50 cents-- and this is cheaper then all the other crap in the food court Strongly Recommended -Vincent Chen read more

This juice it up is advertising falsely. I went in and ordered a Açaí bowl. The sign stated that you could choose three topping and a boost was free. So advised that I wanted a protein boost and was advised that I'd have to pay for it. I pointed at the sign whereas it stated that the boost was free. The young lady asked another employee who came over and stated that the boost were no longer free and that I'd have to pay for it or I would have to substitute one of my toppings for the boost. I advised that's fine as I didn't want to argue with theses young women so I substituted one of my toppings for a whey protein boost. The original cashier began to ring me up and slid my debit card. However, the other young lady said wait it still charged her for the boost, and came over to take it off. She rerang it up and then walked away to prepare my bowl and the cashier again slid my card and asked what should she do with the other canceled slip that printed out the other lady told her to toss it. Now, two days later my debit card account updated and there were two pending charges from JIU. I tried contacting them immediately about the duplicate charge but no one answers the phone. I was only on campus to attend a training for my employer so I'm not a student there on a regular basis. I feel that JUI should train their employees better because state law indicates that if it's advertised you have to honor it. So I will be reporting this location to the better business bureau and I want my money back or at least another bowl for the duplicate charge!!! Update: They made it right. I finally got ahold of someone (Amy) who was very nice. She told me to come back in and they'd refund me. When I arrived she couldn't locate the transaction the system as there was no receipt even though I was able to show her the double charge on my banking app. So she stated that she had to contact the manager. She called and no answer so instead of going back i just requested another bowl and she said yes and made a bowl immediately. I appreciate her taking me immediately even though there was a line, she tried her best to look up the receipt quickly to address the situation and made sure that I was satisfied. Thank you Amy! TM. read more

The line is often really long, and a lot of times they're sold out of whatever I want. I'm never impressed with whatever I get, but it is what it is, and I guess I gotta work with it... read more

The hours here are not right. I think they close when ever they want. It's 3:30 and they are closed. Really?!?! Service like everyone says...sucks balls. The people working there are rude, unfriendly and will be chit chatting with each other while taking your order. They will also give you attitude when they can't hear you. Oh wait...thats because they are chatting nonstop! probably because people are in desperate need of juices. read more

My review was removed for it did not fall in the guidelines so I'll rewrite it in a nicer way, I find it completely useless to ask for my name when they're going to yell out the order. Some over weight girl took my smoothy and i had no time for them to stir up a new one. I got her energy boost and she got my protein. No biggie. Just annoying that theres names on the receipt and the employees can't seem to read. read more

slowest service ever. the girls moved at a snails pace knowing we are students and have class. i wouldnt come back. im way late to class.

Their smoothies are wayyyyyy better than Jamba Juice!!! Haven't had any issues with customer service !!! Affordable and they get the drinks out pretty quick!!! Wish there was a location close to my house! read more

i love coming here! the smoothies are really good and the people are really nice. i also love the music they play at this location. i will definitely come to this location more often! read more

College workers with no sense of urgency...the juice they use is from concentrate and the smoothies are overly sweet. On the postive side, they do raw juice which is great! read more

Today was my first time trying Juice it up with my friend and I won't be back. Not to this one nor any of them. First impressions are everything and WOW do these employees lack basic customer service skills such as cracking a smile! I ordered a small smoothie and there was about 6 people behind me (including my friend) who got their drinks before me. I was about to ask if they forgot about mine and they finally called my name. It was so disgusting to me that the boy who made my drink has bullets of sweat on his face - I'm sure there was a drop or two in my drink. read more

My experience was the worst. NO CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS. I went inside when there was no one in there and ordered my drink. It was really quick so therefore my drink should have been fast as well. The guy who made my order start making the drink and put it in the blender. Then he began talking to his co workers (girls) and went to the back. I thought he would come out again but when he did, he was on his phone and continued to talk. The girl co-workers did the same. Then a couple of students came in and ordered their drink. I'm guessing the girls were new because they kept asking if the amount or ingredients were correct. My drink was done and still no one put it in the cup. I asked one of the girls if my drink was ready inside the blender. She gave me attitude and said "it will be done soon"...like REALLY?!! It's been done for 10 minutes. They put it in the cup and I left. So sad you are on campus because you just lost a customer! read more

The drinks are good, but the service sucks. 15-20 minutes for a damn drink sometimes

So I come here once in a while here to get a smoothie before running to class when Im in a rush. First you see the employee at the register looking at you with the face expression of what the hell you want? you give her you order then they walk like if they have the time of the whole world. Place looks crapy, employees look like they hate their lifes, sometimes the drinks are nasty depends on the mood that they are in. The line gets super long the menu is on the floor instead of been on the wall. Sorry but the two stars are for the bad service. read more

Been to this location at CSULA maybe 3 times and each time, they are out of something and have lousy workers. Only reason I am giving them 2 stars instead of 1 is because honestly, it's not hard to mess up a smoothie, and the fat free cookies here (already packaged though) are pretty good. Each time they say they don't have one of those punch cards so I have never received one from this location, and they have been out of whatever juice I wanted before. I keep coming back here though because it's probably the least unhealthy place to grab food at CSULA. read more
