I recently tried Nektar Juice Bar, and while the juices and smoothies seemed fresh, I found the…read moreprices a bit high compared to competitors. I went into this place excited to try something new. The smoothie i got tasted kind of bland and had chunks of powdery fruit - it tasted pretty similar to the $2.99 costco smoothie except...just like 3x the price. I understand i could have said no to the price and left but i wanted to give it a try anyway since my spirit was high and hopeful. I left feeling a bit sad. Most places in the area offer similar juices for $8-$9, while Nectar's were around $11-$12. The quality for my smoothie was definitely questionable whereas my friend's smoothie was very good, but if you're budget-conscious, it's something to keep in mind. Service was friendly, and the space is nice, so it's a decent spot if you don't mind paying a little extra.

Bellden Cafe has it all, we've already gone several times I'm obsessed with the ube mochi waffle, it is soooo delicious (not too sweet, incredible texture and flavor). Their matcha is also lovely, I got matcha with rose syrup both times I went (so immaculate). I've turned into a bit of a matcha snob, so always looking for some good options and they hit the spot. The service is incredible, literally the people working there are the nicest people everrrr. Even on a super busy weekend morning, they were so accommodating, so friendly and even remembered us from just one visit! Really fantastic team, they really make the whole experience even MORE lovely. And the interior is jussssst so gorg!!! The decor is immaculate, there's lots of space (even when it was crowded), would be a perfect place to work from during the week, even their outdoor tables were very clean and cutie. Absolutely love, this has become a new staple of ours since moving to the east side! brunch girlies rise!!!

I had planned to come here for brunch with my fiancée because she has some dietary and…read moreallergy-related precautions, and this seemed like a place that could accommodate those needs. We ordered the brioche breakfast sandwich, avocado toast, and ube waffle. I wouldn't say everything was bad, because that wouldn't be fair, but most of the food lacked the flavor I was expecting. The breakfast sandwich was pretty mild even with the aioli, and the avocado toast was also missing some of the brightness and zest I usually expect from avocado toast. The ube waffle was unfortunately my least favorite. I asked for no chocolate sauce, but it still came with chocolate sauce, and the waffle itself was very dense and dry. I think this place may just depend on what you're looking for. If you prefer a more traditional, flavorful breakfast, it probably wouldn't be my first recommendation. That said, I wouldn't knock the quality of the ingredients, and if you're looking for a brunch spot that offers more dietary-friendly options, this could still be a good choice.

As a Brazilian, I can confirm that it is REALLY hard to find authentic Açaí. Forget what they offer…read moreat your go-to smoothie shop and whatever you tried in Hawaii. Chances are, you haven't tried legit açai yet (unless you've gone to Brazil). Tropical Berry is one of the rare places in WA that sells real açai. You know is a legit spot if they have condensed milk and milk powder (which is what most people add on in Brazil). I recommend this place to everyone I know, especially if they're not from Brazil. Their açai is delicious, their "coxinha" is one of the best ones I've ever had (please try it with the green mayo). It's always worth the drive for me to come here! Tropical berry is truly a hidden gem!

We were on a bike ride from Seattle and looking for somewhere to stop on our ride, somewhere with…read moresmoothies or fruity somethings. And a search on Yelp brought us here! What a find! I probably have biked past this place a hundred times, but had no idea it was there. My girlfriend suggested we get açai bowls, their specialty. Apparently she and her daughter had lived on açai bowls for years. I'd never had had one, but was willing to try something new. OMG! They were so good and refreshing! We both got different toppings--we went a little crazy with them in fact, the fruit and stuff would barely fit in the bowl!--and we downed both our small bowls. I got banana, strawberry, blueberry, pineapple and peanut butter. The latter sounded weird, but it tasted awesome, especially when mixed with the açai. My girlfriend got the same, but got granola instead of pineapple. I also ordered a pressed sugar cane drink. Yup, made from real sugar canes. Sounds weird, and one would think would be extremely sweet. But no, not super sweet, and surprisingly refreshing. I remember gnawing on sugar canes when I was a kid, so the flavor was familiar. But a drink was a lot easier to consume!! I'll definitely get it again! The place is tiny. Only two tables. And, although it's across Bothell Way from the bike trail, you really have to cross at one of the lights, before or after. A little hassle, but so worth it!!

Customer service is at an all time low. I quit going to Kitanda because they are only focused on…read moremoney but thought I would try again today. I ordered a hot tea with honey and went back to ask for more honey because I didn't taste any. I was told I would have to pay for honey from the person who took my order originally. I said I already paid for honey and she said yes I know. So, they are charging for additional added honey when there was no honey to taste. Now they give one bag of tea regardless of size ordered and charge for ore bags and anything added. Why is the owner and management of this coffee shop so concerned with their employee conversations, culture when they have little regard and very little attention to customer experience and satisfaction. Months ago, the district manager made sure to tell employees to not allow me to split my two bags of tea into two orders because I wasn't paying for the added honey. Seriously?!?!! When I used to spend $30 a day every day they want to give yet another reason to not give them business. Ugghhh! Customers are numbers and not people. Point made over and over now. I guess I am a very slow learner or hoped for better.

We were in the area so I decided to grab some food for our kids…read more The place is pretty spacious and there was plenty of room for dine in. Service was ok. The people were nice but the knowledge of the cashier could be better. I asked what was in the avocado smoothie and he said "milk and avocado". So I asked what would make it sweet since that doesn't sound like it would be sweet at all, and he said that it's just those two ingredients. I ordered it and then I went to the self service kiosk and saw that it came with condensed milk as well... I ended up asking the lady to switch it to honey instead which they did. The smoothie was ok, it was a little too liquidy for it to be a smoothie in my opinion but my kids love it so it's all good. I also got some mini chicken cones and that was standard. Price was a little high imo. The size of the smoothie was small for $9. Overall, it was ok, nothing special.

I love pressed!…read more Looks like Kirkland is the last local location for greater Seattle. I've always liked their pressed juices with ginger & cayenne pepper. They've always had the açai bowl and the last few years they've rolled out with other soft serve options like tropical, soft serve vanilla, & chocolate! You can create your own bowl. They also have protein bowls, nutty bowls, collagen bowls. Various fresh fruit. 3 different sizes too. Keep in mind or everything is vegan, but all the soft server is vegan. A few seats inside. Very friendly Staff.

I got the Blue Majik to share with my boyfriend and our friend got the Hagrid's Dragon. The quality was phenomenal and they don't skimp out on the smoothie portion in comparison to the toppings. Overall it was evenly distributed and made for delicious bowl! This is one of the greater smoothie bowls I've had and it was made quickly. The worker was quick and efficient in making it. Although, the inside is quite small it is quite good for a to-go if you're around the area taking a walk.

Super generous portion!…read more The bowl overall was okay! The açaí didn't really have any flavor to it, and the foods were all a bit sour. It was a good healthy breakfast option, but I've had better açaí bowls. + If you are allergic to any fruits, they don't do replacements, nor will they be willing to exclude the fruit you're allergic to from your bowl. The staff helping us recommended we just choose another bowl without that specific fruit. It was kinda hard because most of the bowls had the same fruits in them so that limited our choice to one-- the bowl we ended up getting.

This location is in a great place right inside of the LA Fitness Signature Club in the Totem Lake area of Kirkland. They definitely have a captive audience as the inside of the health club is HUGE so there's a lot of potential customers who need a healthy reward after their workouts. At our visit, the club workout machines seemed well occupied and several members stopped by to order after their workouts. We had just finished dinner so my wife and I shared a 32 oz PB&J which was recommended by the super fun and energetic staff and it did not disappoint. We were helped by the trio of Maria, Michelle and Camilla. Each had a ready smile and were very helpful and friendly. We also met the woman who owns this and the downtown Kirkland location. She was super nice as well. Camilla expertly made our smoothie and I am now addicted. I need to return and have another one of these delicious and nutritious beverages!
