I love the laid back, super chill vibe of Pahoa, and the Smoothie Shack fits in perfectly!…read more After finding treasures at The Mystic Closet, we were in need of some sustenance and thus wandered - luckily - onto the patio of the Shack! In no time, we had a beautiful açaí bowl and smoothie to bring us back to life. The server gave us excellent recommendations and was so kind - this was a fantastic respite and I genuinely wish I was basking in the sun and grubbing on this bowl right now!

The smoothie was thick and had a nice texture to it where you could still taste the pulp of the pineapple that was blended in. I don't think much -- if any, additional sugar was mixed in, because the smoothie wasn't especially sweet. If you're on vacation and haven't been eating particularly healthy, nor getting enough fiber in your diet, it's a good idea to give your system a boost with one of these smoothies. Smoothies here are priced in line with your average smoothie -- at around $13 or so. If you're looking for something else besides a smoothie, the menu here includes non-smoothie items as well, like juices, açai bowls, and various protein bites.

My favorite items are the acai and pitaya bowl as they are loaded with fresh banana, granola, coconut flakes. I also chose to get the omega add on for bee pollen, honey, chia, and hemp seeds for extra fiber! I am so happy to see that their bowls are still amazing as always. Highly recommend their fruit juices and bowls for nature's dessert to give you a boost for the day.

There was a large pile of dirty dishes stacked up in the area where folks are supposed to place used plates, etc. They probably need more staff or this might just be their vibe. I had a spicy kalo burger for $20. The bun on the bottom was toasted (great) but the bun on top was not toasted and was crumbling apart as I ate it. The pumpkin soup with roasted pumpkin seed garnish was delicious, and inspired me to make my own kabocha stew at home. The food is tasty. The cleanliness could use some improvement especially given the prices. All that being said, it is a popular spot. The parking lot was full. The employees looked busy. Just be forewarned that service levels & cleanliness may fluctuate.

Service is quick since everything is grab and go style. I tried the spicy beef and cheese patty and Jamaican jerk chicken salad bowl. The patty had a golden, flaky, toasty crust with a nicely spiced beef and cheese filling. It was still warm too! The salad was fresh with lovely seasoning on the chicken. The pineapple provided a nice burst of tartness and the pumpkin seeds added crunchiness. Such a refreshing salad to go with a hearty beef patty. Overall, Jam Pot is a great spot for a fresh, flavor-packed lunch when you are in a hurry or just craving a warm and toasty Jamaican patty. They do have a lot of vegan options which is amazing! I'm looking forward to trying the spicy vegan patty and a fresh juice the next time.
