    Blueberry bliss
    Ellery D.

    I didn't have super high hopes, as I've never been crazy about the idea of a bottled smoothie. I was thirsty, though, and I wanted to try something new. Boy, was this drink a pleasant surprise!! Absolutely divine combination of flavors; it tasted like a dessert. Blueberry crumble in a bottle. There was cinnamon in there, and the richness of almond butter and coconut cream, and the blueberry flavor really came through. Thank you for not adding bananas. They dominate the taste of any smoothie. Also, thank you for making it sweet enough. So many juice and smoothie places don't add sweetener beyond the fruit itself, and it comes out so bland. Anyway, this heavenly beverage was 9 dollars, 10 with tax. It will have to be an infrequent treat, but I will certainly get it again. The workers are nice and welcoming. The place itself is quite small, so not really conducive to hanging out and eating, but I live around the corner so it's not a problem for me.

    My go to for mushrooms coffee and their açaí bowl both best in the city!!! Atmosphere is so relaxing! It's a little spot so I usually eat outside and enjoy the Sunshine!!

    xx RAW REPUBLIC TASTING HAUL. xx
    Lorelei S.

    TRUFFLE MAC & CHEESE This palate pleasing thoughtfully created concoction is a rollercoaster ride of salty, creamy, crunchy, & cooling fun in your mouth that is over far too soon. My only disappointment is that the online menu & the actual in store container list of ingredients varies. I do not eat nutritional yeast & it is listed on the food container I purchased but not on the online menu. 5/10. INGREDIENTS: Kelp noodles, cashews, black truffle salt, nutritional yeast*, cremini mushroom crumble, parsley, & black pepper. *The employee confirmed it is in fact an ingredient today when I visited again. x FIRESTARTER This is a nice ratio of an immediate flaming hot root & pepper burst that is accompanied by refreshing, soothing, cooling dual citrus juices. 9.5/10. INGREDIENTS: Orange, ginger, lemon, & cayenne. x SALTED CACAO BROWNIES These brownies are not gooey or in any way sweet.. I find them to instead to be a bit dry & bland. Would highly recommend pairing these w/ a fruity nut milk/shake to add depth of flavor & balance of texture, along w/ hydration to avoid a dry mouth. 4.5/10. xx INGREDIENTS: Cashews, almonds, cacao, mesquite, lucuma, coconut sugar, maple syrup, coconut oil, psyllium husks, & sea salt. x DR. CARTER'S THYROID JUICE I would call this almost airy & fluffy like a cloud; A subtle, light pineapple taste w/ the aloe & the coconut water muting the sweetness. The ginger & the rosemary are both too unnoticeable to add any real depth to the taste. 8/10. xx x COCONUT WATER Compared to Harmest Harvest which is my daily coconut water, this variety is more nutty & sweet in which is a bit more fresh tasting, exotic, & unique. I do think I tasted the plastic bottle a bit in the flavor unfortunately though. 9.5/10. xx INGREDIENTS: Raw, organic young Thai coconut water.

    Masheen

    Walked in here to grab a juice and healthy snack. They had a bunch of juice options to choose from. I tried the bossy balls and was pleasantly surprised with how much I liked them. They're very filling, I ate 1.5 and saved the others. I would definitely recommend Raw Republic to anyone wanting to try juicing. I give raw 4 stars because I wanted the green juice no 1 and thought that's what I grabbed since it was placed in the row labeled as such. When I got in my car and took a sip I thought something was wrong because it was sooooo thick. I looked at the back and saw I had "masheen." After looking on their website I realized this was a smoothie. That was disappointing, but masheen does taste really good if you want a smoothie. Just double check what you're getting since they had them incorrectly sorted on the shelf.

    I cannot wait for the new location to open at canal place but I popped into this location today because I needed a smoothie. I love getting smoothies that have a good balance of greens and fruits. I also added some collagen prOteiN to my smoothie for $2 because I felt like I needed additional protein in my smoothie this e. In the juice area there are Sample for you to try your self.

    I first tried this place because I was looking for a healthier option, and to no surprise I enjoyed everything I ordered. The freshly squeezed juice was amazing and made me feel great. I also tried the mac & cheese which was something that I wasn't used to eating, but I ended up really liking it. When I worked really close to it, I ordered quite a few times from there. The only condo this place is I feel it's a little expensive, but when you're looking for healthier options they usually are.

    Lemon Chia Pudding
    Anthony N.

    Came here for a late lunch with a couple of friends. We were starving but wanted to explore healthier options. This place looked tiny from the outside and was still small when we walked in. To my surprise, there is actually an upstairs to this place with some tables and couches. There were menus on the wall and an fridges with juices and some snacks. The cashier was friendly and ready to help us with anything we needed! We ordered the Acai It All Bowl, two orders of Curry "Chick" Toast, and an Almond Mylk Latte. We also bought the Ginger Sesame Noodles and Lemon Chia Pudding from the fridges. We walked upstairs to find a table to eat at and I just loved how everything looked! The décor was nice, and the atmosphere was calming. There were plenty of windows, so it was bright and energetic. It felt like I was at someone's house, it probably was a house before! The food came shortly afterwards, and I loved the presentation of the dishes! My Acai It All bowl was generously portioned and just looked downright awesome! The Curry "Chick" Toast was good too, but not my kind of dish. My friends loved it though! This is hard to say since I loved my acai bowl so much, but my favorite thing that we got was actually the Ginger Sesame Noodles. It was my friend's and I was supposed to just have a bite, but it was my addiction! I ended up with way more than one bite. It was the perfect balance of flavor, sauce, and a small spicy kick! It was in a small container, but I'm thinking that I need a large bowl of it in the future! The Lemon Chia Pudding was a nice dessert to end our lunch with. The Almond Mylk Latte was different from normal lattes, but still delicious with less guilt from drinking it. Overall, this place is just downright awesome! I was completely stuffed from all of the food that we had, but I felt good about our healthier lunch choice that day! Check this place out!

    Use with extreme caution!

    Everyone who knows me knows I'm a fanatic when it comes to health and wellness. So when I have a throbbing hangover, my first stop is Raw Republic. This is the only juice place in town that is worth a damn. Just saying. I love the green juices, they have a few... some with a little sweetness, some tart AF. I often go with the Blueberry Smoothie and a shot of ginger that I pour in. So, Brandon, why 4 stars and not 5? You must be asking yourself. I'll tell you. A few of their offerings LITERALLY go right through me... no joke! If I drink their "golden mylk" concoction, I better do it sitting on the toilet! Because it goes down my throat and almost straight out the back door! For real. Sometimes I get a bottle when I'm feeling backed up. It's that reliable. But I still love the place!

    Açaí bowl with cacao nibs added.
    NineEva C.

    Ehh, I ordered an açaí bowl and it was just ok. The açaí base was not very flavorful, esp for it to be summer and fruit be in season. Not good enough for me to return or recommend and definitely not worth the $13 I spent. I was slightly disappointed because I've been wanting an açaí bowl for a while. I also felt that the variety of options for toppings was limited compared to other establishments that I have visited.

    Everything I've had here has been amazing. I've been splurging since I discovered it and don't regret it one bit. It's pricey, but you are paying for quality that you taste and feel. I was skeptical of the food items I purchased because I've seen raw foods go very wrong, but everything exceeded my expectations. The Aztec wrap is bomb (should be a little more filled but flavor and textures are on point), the brownies (so rich and dense that a few bites are satisfying, worth the price because you can make it last), and how in the hell are the truffle kelp noodles so savory, simple, and perfect?! Juices, shots, and smoothies are the best I've had. I have never devoured a smoothie as quickly as I did the Bliss & Beauty one. Never! My wallet wants to give this place 0 stars but too bad. It's So. Good.

    Came to this place for the first time and tried the avocado toast. It was very delicious! The lemon mixed with the (what I believe to be) cayenne pepper and the crunchiness of the pumpkin seeds was a great combo. I gave this place 3 stars because I believe customer service matters. I was the only person in the store and yet it took 30 minutes for me to get my order. I'm not sure why it would take 30 minutes to put avocado on toast but it was especially irritating because there was no sense of urgency. With that being said, they will ask you if you would like to tip before you receive your food. I would hold off on tipping until after you receive your order to make sure you enjoy your service, because that only makes sense.

    Is it possible to have nostalgia for a damn grocery store? One that's owned by the evil Amazon…read moreempire at that, but it is what it is and here I am, updating my review for this Whole Foods over 13 years after my first one. I appreciate the wine and delicacies (née cheese) section as well as the fridge section here to Mid-City. I much prefer the parking in Mid-City to Uptown and that's a big deal, as in, even if I'm in the area and need to stop at WF for produce, oat milk, wine and nostalgia, I'll more often than not talk myself out of it because I hate that parking garage that much. The last time I stopped in, I had taralli on the brain and knew that I wouldn't likely find that at most Rouses, no less the far more conveniently-located food co-op that's in my neighborhood. And of course I found a decent variety, as well as a bunch of other goodies my regular Mid-City location does not have. Back to the parking lot. It's bad enough, people. At the very least, bring your cart back inside so that the next person doesn't have to move it before parking, which blocks the entire area and annoys the other cars waiting to park. You know this happens. Don't be that person.

    This Whole Foods is much smaller than most with a bit less selection and sadly they removed the…read moregreat BBQ space at the meat counter. This Whole Foods has a very unique location and this reused space does give it some nice unique qualities. This location used to be far better than the Metairie location in many ways but it seems the location in Metairie has started to surpass this location in many ways. They still have a good mix of local, organic, and non-GMO produce. They also offer lots of high carb and high sugar baked goods that most "vegetarians" and "vegans" seem to thrive on. Sadly the formerly excellent selection of cookies no longer exists and they now pale in comparison to what they used to offer. I do look forward to one day meeting a "real" vegetarian or vegan that actually eats veggies instead of most of the ones I know who basically live off desserts and muffins :) Parking is usually a painful experience here and it is DEFINITELY better to go in off hours as people act crazy about parking here. After Katrina I lived next to the Whole Foods flagship location in Austin so this is certainly a much less dynamic store but it usually serves its purpose. Ever since Amazon took over Whole Foods it simply just isn't as good as it used to be in many ways but you are able to get more deals, discounts and coupons. This is still the most unique Whole Foods I've seen anywhere but I miss the vibe it had before Katrina and Amazon. One last review of ONE Star for all the LAZY people that leave their carts strewn all over the place in the parking lot! If your going to eat healthy maybe take a few extra seconds of exercise to put your cart back and OUT of my way you rude, pathetic excuses for civilized creatures. It is the utmost in poor manners and you are probably the same douche bags that zoom in and cut people off to steal the parking space that someone else was patiently waiting for.
