I remember one time they actually pulled an employee who just wanted some Playa on their day off off the line to go work behind the scenes! Their decor inside is really cute and there's plenty of space. It's always clean and well maintained which is appreciated. The parking is iffy (they do have a lot but it only offers a few spaces) which is the norm for this area. Now onto the food! Their ingredients is fressssssh and everything that goes into your bowl is made and prepared right then and there. I've gotten their Pitaya Bowls, Coconut Bowls, and smoothies. So far? No complaint. Though I will say that I prefer their coconut bowls over anything (a little too sweet sometimes but that's my fault for mentioning to lessen some honey here and there). I like the fact that you can switch out things in the bowls without having to pay any extra money. You'll always get great service from all their employees and will always be satisfied with what they make!

I spent over $150 just for me to get home to notice that the ingredients list was not accurate on a couple items.... I've come to this conclusion because in one of the items it does not say contains wheat however, there was Oreo in it..... I have celiac and after eating the cookie protein balls, I noticed it had cookie dough listed in the ingredients, but it did not say it contained wheat aka gluten... if you have an allergy, I would watch out about what you pick up From from the spot.. don't get me wrong. Everything here is delicious, but I'm pretty sure I had gluten even though again it was not listed.

They have a large variety of wellness shots, seamossed, and lots of supplements. There are many dried store packaged herbs/loose tea but I was unable to get a country of origin and source when I asked, so I did not get any. I got a sea moss with added nutrients, a wellness shot that was pretty good, and a delicious protein brownie.

Though not huge, their menu is plant based with an assortment of brunch/lunch items like bowls, salads and interesting sushi, as well as smoothies and other drinks. If you're open to vegan food and uncommon items in a western diet, you'll enjoy it. The pad thai slaw and sushirito were delicious and well made and everything on the menu was inviting. The teas were lovely and I really enjoyed being able to select a blend of herbs for my tea mug. There was some herbal water available, and a selection of desserts on the counter and in the fridge - chocolatey delights like "snickers" bars. We found a corner next to the stage with two armchairs and a coffee table which was the coziest corner to sit and chat. Though it was Friday afternoon at lunch time and there were several other small groups, it never felt crowded and we were able to stay for a few hours enjoying our tea and meal. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, and non-intrusive. You order at the counter and then sit down, and we were not disturbed at all besides our meal being brought to us when it was ready. Parking is limited but at least they have a lot. It's a short walk into the main part of the town. They also occasionally host events. Looking forward to returning!

So glad they're back! The other day we stopped in for lunch at the new location in Closter NJ. We…read morehad the lentil and chili soups--with peanut butter cups and cheesecake! Everything is vegan--I love it because for me it's less to worry about. Ambiance is comfortable, very similar to how they setup the dining room in their old location--which was earthy and homey. This location has an addition of an art room! For art days--appeared to be an area where adults and children can create art. I didn't venture in. Animals are welcome, some patrons had their dogs. Service was great. The cashier charged us for something we did not order and promptly sent a refund. They didn't have the salads and burritos from the previous menu but the owner told me that the menu items will eventually return. Will definitely come back!

It's a…read morejuice lounge that serves smoothies, juices, wellness shots, lattes, acai bowls, grain bowls, salads, soups, toasts, vegan snacks, and more. Everything is made with natural, fresh, and high quality ingredients. It's located in a plaza with a decent amount of parking. It's a small store with a bright and modern interior. They only have four tables, so it's better for grab-and-go. They have a grass wall backdrop for some photo ops. They have an open kitchen concept, so you can see them prepare the drinks and food with fresh fruits and vegetables. I've been here multiple times and my favorite items to order are the smoothies, raw juices, energy protein balls, and vegan donuts. They offer a large variety of fruits, vegetables, and superfoods for their drinks. So whether you want something spicy, sweet, tangy, tropical, or herbal... they have it all! The juices have concentrated, intense, and bold flavors. The smoothies are thick and creamy with well-balanced flavors. Both are incredibly refreshing and you can't go wrong with ordering any on the menu. The energy protein balls are a great snack - it's almost like eating raw cookie dough, but a much healthier version. The vegan donuts are a must try! I've tried both the pitaya and matcha flavors. I was disappointed that the flavors weren't strong, BUT the icing and texture made up for it. They use delicious almond and rum frosting glazed over the top. The texture is completely different from a regular donut. It's a lot more fluffy and moist, similar to a muffin or cake. Service is really a hit or miss depending on what day and time you go. Every time I come, they are busy. I guess they're so busy that they don't have time to acknowledge or greet customers. There's not much interaction except for when you place your order. You may also have to wait awhile for your order to come out. I recommend ordering ahead if you want to save time. If you sign up for their emails/texts/rewards program, they send you $5 coupons every Friday! GO RAW!!!

I recommend Fitrition, their ease in ordering and food quality don't come near those nationally advertised brands. Not even close! Great variety to choose from an I look forward to every meal!

I enjoy that there are plenty of options to keep rotating flavors so nothing ever feels repetitive or boring. It's nice to have a place where you can mix it up instead of getting stuck ordering the same thing every time. The Purple Haze smoothie is my usual order and never disappoints -- flavorful, refreshing, and perfectly blended. I do occasionally mix it up, but I always come back to that one. Their energy bites are another standout -- satisfying a sweet craving while still being made with better-for-you ingredients. I usually keep a few in my fridge for grab-and-go energy. They also offer healthy prepared meals, which is incredibly convenient. I haven't personally tried them due to a severe gluten allergy, but friends who have enjoy them. This is primarily a grab-and-go spot, though there is minimal indoor seating if you want to stay. The staff has consistently been friendly and attentive, always acknowledging customers when they walk in. Parking tip: Westwood has metered street parking, and during peak hours it can be tough to find a spot. Even if you're running in quickly, make sure you feed the meter -- tickets are given out easily. My only real disappointment is that they discontinued the buy-10-get-1-free punch card. I was definitely bummed to see that go and would love to see some kind of rewards program return. Overall, Fitrition is a reliable local favorite for fresh shakes, snacks, and grab-and-go fuel -- it's exactly the kind of spot you're happy to keep in your rotation.

They clearly saw me standing there -- eye contact was made -- but not a single person said a word to me. No "we'll be right with you," no acknowledgment whatsoever. Then two customers walked in after me and were immediately helped while I continued to stand there invisible. When I finally spoke up to let them know I'd been waiting, I was told I needed to go to the register to order. Interesting, because I've been to this location before and was never told that, and other Tropical Smoothie locations have taken my order right at the counter without issue. What should have happened here is simple: tell the customers who came in after me that I was next, take my order, and apologize for the wait. Instead, I was ignored, skipped, and then made to feel like the inconvenience. Basic customer service shouldn't be this hard. I won't be back to this location.
