Packed with protein, it is a quick pick me up when you're on the go and if you are in the area. Pro tip: order ahead, especially on hot days so you don't get stuck waiting outside in the heat! Thicc smoothies are my favorite smoothies in the town - no if, ands, or buts. They also partner with a nonprofit each month to give a percentage of their proceeds back to the community. Follow them on their socials for events so you don't miss out!

They have a lot of options, so it was nice to have their recommendations to help. The smoothies and acai bowls can take a little long to be made, they are a small shop and have a lot of customers at once, so be prepared to wait if you come! The smoothies are super thick and rich in flavor, and they give you a lot of everything! Keep that in mind when you're ordering, because some flavors (peanut butter) can be more powerful and dominating than others! But it's still so delicious and I can't wait to drop back in to try something new!

I had a really disappointing experience here today mainly due to the attitude of one employee…read more When I first came in the woman who helped me was very friendly and welcoming. She greeted me right away and even recommended a smoothie which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the smoothie itself wasn't blended well and had large chunks of fruit and ice, making it difficult to drink through the straw. Since the shop wasn't busy and the smoothie was over $12 I politely asked if it could be blended a little more. The man working there (white pants, black shirt, black bandana, glasses) rolled his eyes, stared at me and said in a rude tone, "I can't blend your smoothie I'd have to make a whole new one." His attitude made me feel uncomfortable for even asking so I said "ok just forget about it." He responded with "ok good" and walked away. I completely understand if there's a policy about not re-blending drinks after they've been served. That's not the issue. The issue was the unnecessary attitude toward a customer who was being polite. I ended up leaving the smoothie there and wasting my money. Hopefully management sees this and addresses how customers are treated.

Super nice employee who helped us pick out Valerie acai bowls to order. They ran out of hemp seeds…read moreso she offered to sub chia seeds or coconut shards. The açaí bowls are $13 each but were quite filling - the nut butter, subbed gluten free granola, and cacao nibs were delicious. The space is kept clean and we sat outside on barstools. They have stamp cards for smoothies and the açaí bowls which is another nice perk.

Other places I've been to offer strawberries and granola, that's it. Ride bar is not a smoothie bowl, they serve true acai bowls. Also love their espresso drinks. Their iced latte is divine. Friendly and helpful staff, cute space overall. Easy to order. Smoothies are also really good. Wish they were open on Tuesdays!

So glad Mellana Cafe was recommended via Yelp, because holy moly they definitely know how to make fresh, healthy, and colorful fruit smoothies and juices. All of the choices looks so refreshing and yummy, but I knew I wanted some ginger and some vitamin C in mine, so went with the Jamaican Ginger Paradise. It was so delicious, and the smoothie was the perfect amount of thickness and melt ratio. It had a very vibrant beautiful citrus color. The two ladies working the front were so friendly and efficient. A+ for service. I also like how cute their cafe was, but not a place where I would study. The chairs are more for short chats with your buddies, they also have some few outdoor spots for the doggos. I'm definitely coming back, maybe next time to try their Adeni chai or their other Yemeni hot drinks.

I was hesitant because an acai bowl didn't sound like anything more than a bowl of fruit. I WAS WRONG! This place was the perfect spot to try my first acai bowl.

I finally tried this out since we were eating at a place nearby and got lucky and parked right across from this shop. They not only have juices and teas. They sell other items, fresh veggies, fresh fruits and California Lottery Tickets. ----LOCATION---- - Located in Chinatown - Street Parking, plan accordingly or drive with someone and have a friend hop out of the car for order pick up ---HOW TO ORDER/PAY---- - Order/Pay in Person or on a variety of food apps like Uber Eats but also you can order through YELP. - I recommend ordering on YELP or another food app so that pick up is quick and efficient. ____DRINKS____ ----CANTALOUPE & STRAWBERRY JUICE---- - I created this using their "3 Choice" Juice option - Super refreshing! Especially on a hot day - Keep in mind that they are no added sugars, it's straight up fruit and not so sweet - Super healthy! ---- VITMAIN C TEAM---- - This is one of their pre-made juices that is ready for purchase. - They make it themselves - Great for if you're feeling sick, around sick people or for before/after a trip and you need that extra vitamin c boost! - A heads up, the ginger taste is strong in this ----DRAGON FRUIT SMOOTHIE---- - This is was refreshing and tasty. I liked how it wasn't too sweet. My boyfriend originally ordered this but didn't like it so much because it tasted like "Earth" but that's the whole point for it to be no additives and straight fruits and no artificial flavoring... more for me because I drank his smoothie LOL ---SERVICE---- -Service is amazing. They are very kind and grateful. If you have any questions regarding their drinks, they will explain them to you. ---RESTROOMS/INTERIOR--- - No restrooms - It's a small corner shop - This is a more of a grab and go type of establishment ----REASONS FOR MY 5 STARS---- - Variety of fruits and veggies for drinks - Great customer service, they were/are very patient and kind to everyone that they interact with while I was waiting for my drinks
