Berry  Butter  Smoothie
Ursa Z.

I do not expect the drinks is like this. The service is horrible, the girl who was making my drinks NEVER WEIGHED, and just threw random stuff in to my drinks and I didn't see any PROTEIN powder she was putting in. Drinks is so watery, taste HORRIBLE drinks tasted dirty (like mop) disgusting too. toilet clogged, dirty IF YOU CANNOT HIRE LEGIT PEOPLE DOING THIS, STOP HIRING HIGH SCHOOL KIDS MAKING MY DRINKS

Quick drive thru at a Nektar! I got the Popeyes acai and it was sooo good. I've gotten the Tropical Cooler (this one was a lot more serious, green, & not sweet) The server was so kind, welcoming and smiling :) He was more than happy to take my order I hope he has a great day! The place is nice and they have a Jenga game on a cute table too!

Jam Slam

Thanks Moises for the upgrade on my drink. He had a few orders he was making so a small wait but I didn't mind, I wasn't in a rush. Lots of options to pick from but I didn't realize you ordered from a touch pad, since it looks like a normal counter someone would take your order. Personally prefer ordering with a person than a kiosk since it was my first time there- I was debating between a few options. I ended up ordering the raspberry riot and Jam Slam waffles

Absolutely love Nekter. Anytime I'm in California I make a few visits. The quality of ingredients are always exceptional and the service is kind.

First time ordering from class pass. Yes they take their sweet time. Smoothies was priced more than the other place in LF. Felt more watered down.

Food: Their drinks have good ingredients like every other location. This location has had a very tough time with consistency. I have been several times and this most recent experience I ordered a pair Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Smoothie. One of the drinks included strawberries and the other did not. I physically watched someone pour my two drinks from the same blender and when I asked which had strawberries, they randomly picked one and stated it had strawberries instead of admitting to their mistake. Needless to say, I've never had an order taste the same in the countless times I've been to this location specifically. Service: The majority of the time, I've not been greeted or asked if I needed help upon entering even when I was the only person in the store. Ambiance: The place is generally clean and has an upscale vibe to it. They have two sets of giant Jenga blocks for those that want to hang around and plenty of outdoor seating as well. They have cleaned at really random times throughout the day and I have noticed a few times that it straight up smells like cleaning chemicals. Glad to know they clean and most likely bad timing on my part. Plenty of parking in the plaza. If they have any good deals, I guess it's worth a visit, but not my preferred Nektar location.

this chick !

I quickly came by just to grab a drink with my friend. There was only what three or four people in front of us. Two employees were on break and then there's a girl who left my friends drink there and it was so watery and it wasn't even tasty and it took 20 minutes to do our drink when there wasn't even a big crowd. This is fucking ridiculous. You making a smoothie does not take 20 minutes and a lame as excuse. I will never come back here again. The service was horrible. It was not very welcoming. Those three should be fired.

Wow Rachel gave the best customer service, She was so kind and helpful for my order. The last time I was there my order was messed up I gave it another try and sure enough I received a plus customer service She helped me and was just very genuine and kind we need more people like Rachel. Thank you so much for the great customer service. You definitely deserve a raise.

Urine and feces.

This place looks like it's ran by a bunch of high-school-age kids who couldn't care less. The drinks were okay, but when I peered over to their work area, I could see large cardboard boxes blocking their own path of travel and creating a fire hazard. The bathroom was filthy; there was urine and feces on the seat, the foot pedal on the trash can was facing the wrong direction and the air freshener looked like it hasn't been replaced in years. If they're not cleaning the restroom, what else aren't they cleaning?

Animal hair in cup

A good spot for healthier smoothies in Woodbury Town Center. This location is cleaned often, but the strong scent of bleach is a little bit off-putting when you enter. When we went in, both workers had headphones in and didn't acknowledge us until we went up to the counter. The menu items are healthy and have very good quality ingredients, but it is on the more expensive side. I've ordered the same smoothie a couple of times and it's fairly inconsistent with the ingredients based on taste. There was also an animal hair about the size of a thumbnail inside of my cup once I opened the lid.

Came for Filipino-American History Month (October) and had a great experience! They did great with…read morethe flavors of the month. As a Filipino, I HAD to try the October flavors. I ended up sampling every single flavor, but ended up getting a scoop of Thai Tea After Dark (I know it's not a Filipino flavor per se but it was so good!) I tried the Sans Rival and it really tasted like the dessert! The cashew really came through. The Guava Sampaguita was really fruity and flavorful! It was also a bit floral, which isn't always my favorite flavor, but it was well balanced here. The Taho tasted EXACTLY like Taho! I could actually taste the tofu. Wild! The arnibal was really sweet, just like it is in real taho. I didn't think I could eat an entire scoop of it cuz it was pretty sweet and the texture wasn't as creamy/smooth since it's a sherbet and not an ice cream. Sapin Sapin was great and I could taste all three flavors! And the Iskrambol really surprised me. I didn't think I would like it but the milky banana flavor really came through. I liked that the banana flavor was real and not artificial. I actually considered getting this as a scoop cuz it was so yummy. Ultimately, I got a scoop of Thai Tea After Dark and it was my favorite of the bunch. The thai tea flavor was strong and punchy and was balanced well with the dark chocolate. I LOVED tasting the subtle black tea flavor (lapsang souchong) in the chocolate ice cream. A really good flavor! Thanks Wanderlust for celebrating FAHM!

Located in a nondescript strip mall, the interior is just large enough for a small line to form. You'll likely take your sweet treat home or you'll find a seat at one of the few outside tables. There are about 4 window seats inside but that's it. For my first visit here, I ordered their Vietnamese Rocky Road(contains brownie bites, marshmallows, and walnuts, combined with Vietnamese coffee and sweetened condensed milk). This combination tasted like it sounds and it was solid, but not spectacular. They do have some other interesting, non-traditional flavors here you wouldn't see at Baskin-Robbins. Staff looks to be mostly college students and they did the job well enough.

I'm Filipino and was tickled to hear about the flavors...Ube Pandesal Toffee, Banana Turon Crunch & Mango Sticky Rice. We tried the Ube Pandesal Toffee and I'm quite amazed how they were able to capture that unique flavor. I grew up with making an "ice cream" sandwich by putting ice cream in a pandesal and tasting this just unleashed a core memory of being young and making an ice cream sandwich that way. We will definitely be back to try the other flavors! When we arrived there was a few people in line and when the line grew a bit, I think it was a manager that stopped what he was doing to jump in and help with customers which I thought was very considerate of him to do. Lastly, the location was charming and tucked away in the corner of the plaza. It had a few tables outside and in the adjacent Pop Pie shop to sit for a few minutes to enjoy the ice cream! It's nice to support a small businesses that cater to the community! Good luck to the Stella Jean family...wishing you success! I'll be back for my Turon & sticky rice!

The mint and chip is basic. Nothing too much about it. My kids like it, so I got it. Average 3/5. The rose ice cream tasted like a rose, it was pretty good and very floral. The disappointing part is I was hoping the ice cream would be shaped like a rose as depicted on the picture. Nope, just a scoop and left it as is. 5/5 for taste and 0/5 for presentation. The milk and cereal one was actually pretty good. Especially with Frosted Flakes in it. It literally taste like cereal. 5/5. I would give it a higher star if the service complimented it and th presentation of the rose ice cream did.
