Tried this new location a couple of months ago but they were not quite open yet. Parked and was about to walk up to the door and they came out to tell me they were not open yet. But would be soon. I really liked they did this, vs. me trying to walk in and everything being locked up. I vowed to come back when they were "officially" open. I'm so glad I did! Service was fast and super friendly. Two BIG factors for me. 1) My Chipotle Chicken club flatbread came out hot with lots of chicken! 2) My Chia Banana Boost was cream and delicious. It was not all watered down with crushed ice. Tastes really good and not like a slushy. Will be back when I am around. Great job!

Very nice and clean on the inside

I always pass by Tropical Smoothie Cafe as it is near Amazon Fresh and Shake Shack. Also it's the only smoothie place near by that opens early at 8am and I needed a smoothie to break my 36 hour fast. There is plenty of parking in the lot and I've hardly ever seen it too crowded. The inside is decorated nicely with bright colored seats and all is modern. It's a really nice atmosphere to dine in to have breakfast or lunch. I ordered the "Detox Island Green" smoothie that comes with spinach, kale, mango, pineapple, banana & fresh ginger (naturally sweetened). They also have additional supplements and add-ins, however today I ordered as is. The smoothie was delicious and exactly what I needed. Perfect frozen consistency and taste. Also the cup size is pretty huge for a smoothie. Pretty sure I'll be a frequent patron here.

CARIBBEAN JERK wrap

I received a couple recommendations about giving this place a try. I had the jerk chicken wrap with a banana. I don't eat beans or cheese, so I asked them to not put those in my wrap. The wrap was actually delicious, lots of flavor and had a little bit of a kick to it. My fiancé is a big fan of their smoothies and he loved the Baja chicken wrap with chips.

Strawberry banana smoothie

I tried the strawberry banana smoothie today, and it was really good and not to sweet. Prices are good and the size of the drink was great. Service was fast.

LEAN MACHINE

Tropical Smoothie Cafe recently opened up, and I finally got around to coming to this location. I used to go to the one at UIC that's inside of the recreation center, so I'm familiar with their drinks and eats. My partner and I decided to juice cleanse a little after all of the food we ate over the weekend. My partner ordered their Bahama Mama, and I did their Lean Machine smoothie. We loved our drinks, the fruits tasted fresh, and we ordered it off of Grubhub since we're both exhausted after a 13 hour drive home. Normally we'd walk right over, it's located in a shopping center where Amazon Fresh, Panera, Longhorn and Shake Shack are. My only complaint is that they still use styrofoam cups, and my driver accidentally spilled one of my smoothies. Thankfully she went back up the street, and the staff remade my drink. I think that they should look into reusable cups where you can bring back in the future. Honestly, I'd be willing to pay extra for a better quality cup, and I'm sure other customers might appreciate having an option to choose a cup. Either way, it's not going to stop me from coming here. I'd recommend this location to anyone looking for healthy alternatives, fresh smoothies, and a bite to eat.

BLUEBERRY BLISS
Van K.

Best. Morning. Pick-me-up. Ever. The smoothie/flatbread combo is perfect for the value, I got the peanut butter banana crunch and it was beyond delicious. The smoothie I chose was the Blueberry Bliss and it was also such a very sweet and pleasant drink. The staff greeted me as I entered and upon asking for help with my mobile order and direction the person at the counter got me taken care of within seconds, I couldn't have wished for a better first-time experience, thank you guys!!

sausage egg quesadilla

this is insane. this was so sad, barely filled! the tortilla tasted like chemicals like they dipped it in windex and then cooked it. wont be ever coming back, a rip off.

Mango Magic Smoothie and Sunrise Sunset Smoothie

Mango magic and sunrise sunset smoothie. They both were great. 10/10 . The mango magic was smooth and light from the yogurt in it and the sunrise sunset was nice and a little tart from the orange juice base . They were both so good

Found this place on one of the socials, and it's so cute! Very friendly staff!…read more The sandwich is solo and almost $15, so inflation is definitely a thing around here. The sandwich was tasty, perfect portions of sauce to bread to toppings / meats. I tried the Key West, and customized just a bit. Will be back to try more!

I happen to find out about the Westside deli by a Yelp listing of hot places to go. I have to say…read morethat this is one of the best places you should go if you want fresh authentic food that is homemade and extremely flavorful. This was our first time there and I had the corned beef special. I have to say, it was the best I have ever had. It was a little messy, but that was OK. Messy makes the sandwich even better. They have ready-made Greek salads a couple of desserts, different salads deli meats as well. I couldn't believe how many people were coming and going. People called ahead. They had their orders ready. people that walked in, place their orders and the sandwiches came out very fast. Our food came out quite rapidly as well. They have a very, very small seating area so you have to eat and run, which is only fair because there are people always waiting for tables. If you have never eaten at the Westside deli, you absolutely must put it on your, "must try" list. Everybody was raving about the food and the freshness. The hour that we were there, I would guess 50 people came and went to pick up their orders or sit down to eat. Parking is a little sparse, but it's well worth it to give this place a try. The staff was extremely friendly even the cook brought out our food and they checked on us often. There is a no tipping policy and if you insist on leaving a tip, they put it in a jar and they donate it. Using cash is better than using a credit card because their credit card fee is a little high. The sandwich was the right size and the price was very reasonable. I definitely would give them a try. Please follow me and I will take you to some great mom and pop places. We will go back again.

We decided to stop by for lunch and enjoy the food while soaking in the market's lively surroundings. From the menu, we ordered: Chicken Wings with Garlic Parmesan, Nachos,Smothered BBQ Chicken Sandwich, Bruschetta, Fried Green Tomatoes. We started our meal with the Chicken Wings and Nachos. The wings were perfectly cooked, flavorful, and coated in a rich Garlic Parmesan sauce. The nachos were crispy, well-seasoned, and paired nicely with the wings. The highlight of our meal was the Smothered BBQ Chicken Sandwich--a juicy, tender chicken patty topped with fresh salad. We wrapped up our lunch with Bruschetta, a fresh and flavorful Italian classic, which was the perfect way to end our meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our food from The Trough at Starkey Market. It's a great spot for a casual, delicious meal with fresh ingredients.

The Trough has good food in a fun outdoor rustic atmosphere. You get plenty of fries with burgers…read more They are so good. The wings can be big or really tiny. I suggest going on Wednesdays for 75cent wing day and loading up then. Their garlic parmesean is the best I have tasted in a long time. They are not shy with sauce so I suggest getting wings naked with on the side. Beer is cold. Plastic cups. Sometimes there are bands and activities for the kids. Check in advance to ensure they are not closed for an event.

I was meeting a friend for dinner and had some time to spare, so I stopped at this (what I thought…read morewas just a) produce stand. Imagine my surprise when I opened the door to check out!!! This shop is stocked full of Eastern European delights! They have a whole deli section that looked delicious. Most of these items are made locally and brought in. I asked the lady behind the counter if they made anything in-house. She said the antipastos, regular and hot. I ordered a small container of the hot antipasto. I would've bought more, but was leaving to go out of town Friday morning. The hot antipasto was deliciously spiced and full of flavor. I can't wait to go back and try more'. They have Boars head lunchmeat and sandwich presses. I wish they were closer to Carrollwood!

The bread was dry and the lettuce skimpy and chopped. Please why no leaf of romaine? You have it! There is a short menu, at least make them well. I wanted to be thrilled, they have some fancy shiz up in there. But let me say this, the woman who makes the sandwiches is the hardest worker i have seen. I don't think it's her fault. I went to Winn Dixie after and got a proper sandwich, for less. The prices are high all around. That's my word.
