    Açaí bowl

    Zero consistency with food and smoothy quality / portions. Very hit or miss. When it's good, it's good 4/5. However when it's bad it can ruin the experience. Flatbreads fat with ingredients one day / completely void of ingredients the next day. Smoothies will either taste like water or clearly have missing ingredients. Management needs to better train staff to ensure there is consistency across all employees. If this place was reliable, I'd definitely recommend it. Right now it's a gamble unfortunately.

    The island smoothie, Caesar salad with chips
    Natalie G.

    I ordered through Grubhub and why haven't I tried this place sooner?! I ordered the island green smoothie which has spinach, kale, mango, pineapple and banana. I added whey protein and Splenda. This smoothie is really good. It had the right balance of greens to fruit sweetness. It was a lot and pretty filling. I also ordered their Caesar salad. Chicken was moist and they had Parmesan crisps vs croutons! I liked how their dressing didn't seem as heavy as a traditional Caesar dressing. Their menu looks amazing. Will definitely order again :).

    I think my roommate's guilty pleasure just became mine too. I'm not normally the biggest smoothie guy, but when someone tells me that I can get one for $4.99 just by saying "Getaway Hour" to the cashier between 3-5pm, it's pretty easy for me to become a smoothie guy. The interior was clean and bright, although it kinda looked like someone asked Chat GPT what someone who's never seen Havana would assume Dairy Queen would look like if it originated in Havana. But hey, whatever brings in the lululemon crowd's money. I ended up getting the strawberry kiwi smoothie, which was pretty solid. Nothing to write home from Cuba about, but if I need a cheap smoothie on a hot summer day, this feels like a good go-to

    My non-avocado-containing Avocado Grilled Cheese

    So the food and smoothies are decent but oh how bad the service is. Horrendous. I've come in several times. If you haven't ordered online you'll be waiting unless they've no customers. They seem to continue to make online orders (including new ones) while you stand and wait. Not even an acknowledgment "Be with you in a minute." Zero eye contact. Last time I was in (tonight), when my wait was finally over, I was grunted at to indicate I should order. Oh. I'm eating my sandwich now and my Avocado Grilled Cheese (written as on menu) has no avocado.

    Cali chicken flatbread! Yummy!!
    Stephanie L.

    I placed an order for pick up, called because the website wouldn't give me the option to order the items I wanted. The young lady that took my order was super helpful and polite and took the curbside order by phone. I ordered the Cali chicken club flatbread and the Detox Island Green smoothie. First off I stay about 17 minutes away from here, and found out about the place with a quick Google search for smoothie bars near me. I enjoyed the smoothie on my way home, it's supposed to have ginger in it however I didn't quite taste it, but the smoothie tasted healthy! When I got home I noticed that the flat bread was missing the bacon, I called to let them know and the guy apologized and asked if I wanted to come back, I declined as I did not want to make another trip. An awkward silence followed his second apology, and then click... Everything was yummy which is why I'm giving 4 stars, they should have offered either a refund or a discounted item next visit. I'll give them another shot because that flatbread was delicious, but I will bring this up next visit

    24 oz Smoothie
    Ranillo R.

    Went here yesterday and I was glad I tried it out. The people who work here are super friendly and very prompt with making their order. I placed my order online through the website and I came a bit earlier than I said I would. When I arrived, my drink wasn't ready, but they started making it immediately when I got to the counter. I had a dragonfruit smoothie and it was amazing. They definitely use real fruit and you could definitely tell from the taste. Its a huge 24 oz drink and they totally fill it to the top. They do offer curb side delivery, pick up obviously, and I believe delivery options as well. There is parking by the McDonalds lot next door and right outside of the store entrance so don't have to worry about meters here. Definitely will come back here to try their other shakes out!

    Detox island and Chia banana w/ peanut butter
    Mike P.

    Love the smoothies here especially the roasted chia banana and Bahama mama smoothies. Ordering through their app is easy and a time saver. My only suggestion is to add smaller sizes as they only have one size and I rarely can drink more than half of it because it's a lot.

    I was craving a smoothing so I searched on Yelp and stopped here ! Valeria you killed it , you were so knowledgeable about all the smoothies and were so patient and considerate since it was my first visit . I mentioned I didn't want berries but something with pineapple but really wanted a piña colada HA so Valeria suggested Bahama Mama without the strawberry . WOW !!!! This is the best smoothie /piña colada. I'll be back !!

    Island Green Smoothie
    Niki R.

    I absolutely loveeeee the smoothies from here! I literally almost have one of these a day. They are so fresh and healthy, especially if you substitute in Splenda. The veggie smoothies are my favorite as they taste great and I can get all my veggies in at once. I also finally tried a food item, the turkey bacon ranch, and found it surprisingly tasty! The turkey and bacon was so savory and fresh while the bread was soft and fluffy. I highly recommend this place!

In the warmer months they offer outdoor seating so it expands the number of people that can dine-in. The restaurant is colorful and refreshing. It gives Italy in the Summer, it makes you want to wear a sundress and sip fresh lemonade. Food: During my visit I ordered the Arancini Porcini which a fried Risotto ball filled different ingredients. It came with two balls which is perfect because it made it easy to share. I also ordered a slice of the Sfincione Chicago Style pizza which is a Sicilian style pizza with Italian sausage, green peppers and mushrooms. You can tell they invest in the quality of their food because everything tasted fresh. Overall: I highly recommend visiting Sfera Sicilian Street Food at least once. The staff is very friendly and the restaurant is very cute. They don't have a lot of indoor seating so be prepared to wait for a table if you plan to dine-in but the neighborhood invested in a lot of community benches if you opt for a to-go order.

I doubt anyone leaves feeling less jolly than they did going in. On this visit, I started with the After Word to drink. It was light-bodied, not at all too sweet, and possibly went down *too* easily. We split the short rib poutine and I can't think of a better dish to get you through the winter. The meat absolutely melted in the mouth and the cheese was abundant and rich. Would order again in a heartbeat! We also tried the alligator bites as a seasonal special. I'd not had alligator before, but they were super crispy and spicy with an addictive gochujang sauce. It really does taste like chicken. If you've ever wanted to try alligator, this is the place to do it. For the main event, I opted for the red beans and rice hand pie. It came with a light, citrus salad and delicious hand cut fries with 3 dipping sauces, which were very fun to try. I loved the buttery pie crust but the filling tasty very tomato forward- I was missing the heat of a traditional red beans & rice and wished there was more seasoning. Still good. As usual, the portions were generous for the price and we left with leftovers. Absolutely recommend making the trek over here to give B&B a try, and will be back soon!

Then I forget for a few months, find another $20, end up stumbling across this place again and going "why don't I come here more?" This has happened three times. The most important part though- it's real tasty. Always. I'd say all of it, but I'm still working my way through the menu, but the burgers and Mac never let me down. The servers are always really laid back, and nothing feels rushed. I think it's part of the charm; somewhere to go and relax and take your time to enjoy the vibe. And you know what would help the vibe even more? Including the bread pudding on the menu full time. Keeping that bad boy stocked for me at all times. (This time was my first time seeing it on the specials menu and listen, it WAS special. So special that you should upgrade it to mainstay is all.)
