    Mixed berry Greek yogurt

    Small spot to have a study session. Clean area. a refreshing lunch, I have only tried the bowls & they have been well made every time!

    Detox Island Green Smoothie
    Tiffany J.

    I kept seeing Tropical Smoothie Café all over Yelp and had no idea it was a chain establishment. This whole time, I thought it was some small local spot in Pearland. Once I realized that this place is everywhere, I figured I need to hurry up and try it already. I ordered the wrap and smoothie combo online. I received confirmation that it would be ready in about 15 minutes. When I got there, I was greeted immediately by a nice employee. They have a cubby area for to go orders and my order was ready. I was in the store for less than a minute, but as I grabbed my food and headed to the door, another nice employee said bye. Something as small as saying hi and bye really left a good impression. Also, they had some great music playing and I wouldn't have been mad if my order wasn't ready so I could enjoy the music haha. Supergreen Caesar Chicken Wrap - I was expecting the wrap to be served cold for some reason, but it was warm and it was delicious. It was a tad salty, but the flavors were good. The tortilla was toasted nicely and I liked the Parmesan crisps. It had a good amount of Caesar dressing. Kale and Apple Slaw - This was okay. It had a bit too much dressing for my preference. I liked the contrast of sweet and tart flavors. Detox Island Green Smoothie - This was good, but it was heavy on the banana. If I were to order this again, I would 86 the banana. It's not as good as the Ginger n Greens smoothie at Jamba, but it was decent. You can modify ingredients like the type of sugar (the standard is turbinado) or do add ins or supplements for a fee. My order totaled $13 even which isn't too bad. I wish there was a way to add tip on the order form (if there is, then I missed it). I'm a sucker for a good sandwich so I suspect I'll be visiting Tropical Smoothie Café more often.

    Smoothies are great and I believe this is a black-owned franchise, so I'm happy to support! However, I must say the customer service is shit. Please train your employees to speak and greet guests, to have enthusiasm when speaking, and to not just stare and expect me to start talking. That really ruined my experience, however, I will be back because the smoothies are good. I came September 23, 2023 around 12 PM noon and one of the workers (slimmer Black woman with cap and moles) was very cold and rude. I don't know if she wasn't having a good day, but we all have bad days. I try to be empathetic, but again.. fake it until you make it or call off if you're not in a mentally sane mood for your service job that day. Just my opinion. Overall, please don't let one employee deter you from these delicious smoothies and supporting a black owned business!

    DETOX ISLAND GREEN with Pea Protein my fav!

    I love the fresh ingredients they use. I feel they use more natural fruit in their smoothies instead of fruit juices. My favorite is the Island Green smoothie. I fluctuate between the regular one and the detox version that has ginger. I've also tried and loved the Avocolada green smoothie and the chia banana boost that is sweetened with dates! I have their app which I order ahead and pick it up. The app also gives you rewards for a free smoothie. The more you visit the more rewards.

    Here for National Flip Flop Day!! Didn't know they had a location in Pearland! I used to always go to the one in a Westchase. Love everything about them. The food, the smoothies. Always fresh. Super clean. Always friendly smiles from the staff. They're so nice!

I love that you can customize your meal exactly how you want it, with so many different options for greens, grains, proteins, toppings, dips, and dressings. Everything tasted fresh, and I really enjoyed all the different flavors and textures together. The portions were also generous, so I definitely felt like I got a satisfying meal. There are so many choices that you could come back several times and create something completely different each visit. The atmosphere was casual and inviting, making it a great spot to grab a quick lunch or dinner. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially when it came to explaining the different options and moving everyone through the line without making the experience feel rushed. Overall, I really enjoyed my visit to CAVA and would definitely go back. The fresh ingredients, great flavors, and ability to customize your meal make it stand out from a typical fast-casual restaurant.

    My most recent visit to Freebirds was thanks to social media where they were advertising their…read moredaily deals. I haven't been to a Freebirds in years so this was my reminder that I liked this place. This location in Pearland is in a small shopping strip in front of Pearland Town Center. Parking is easy to find. I came around early dinner and the place was empty. The young employees behind the counter were super nice and served me my food with a smile. The deal I ran across was for 10 dollar monster burritos or bowls. I went with a bowl and didn't realize how massive the monster size is. The bowl was easily enough for two people. You start on one end of the line and work your way down instructing the staff how to assemble your bowl, burrito, nachos, salad or tacos. What separates Freebirds from Chipotle is that they have way more options on customizing your creation. They have 6 different tortilla options, 6 different proteins, 3 different types of rice and beans, and a ton of add ons and sauces. Like other like places, they do upcharge for things like queso, guacamole or avocado. My order changes between bowls and burritos, but one thing remains, it always hits the spot. What really stands out to me is having so many fresh add on options that really elevate my entree. The proteins are good, but pretty basic though. Don't sleep on the queso here. It is good. If you have a sweet tooth, they also have thinks like cookies and brownies. Each of these burrito chains have their pros and cons. I like having options and to give my taste buds different flavors from time to time. I will most definitely be back to Freebirds.

It was pretty empty when we first arrived then more trickled in soon after. It was little darker than a regular restaurant with red neon lighting. We weren't greeted by anyone but easily noticed that we could order on our own. It is self seating and the area seemed cleaned. We sat at a booth for 5 of us. For the family, I ordered the bird wrap basket (mild spice level) with crinkle fries & cheese sauce on the side for myself. For the kids, I got a side of Mac n' cheese and ordered each a single tender with crinkle fries & cheese sauce on the side from the kids menu & fountain drink. My husband got a single slider burger basket with crinkle fries (medium spice level). I did think the kids meal was way too expensive for a single tender. They unfortunately only ate less than half of a tender. Both did not like the fruit punch which was unusual since they usually enjoy that elsewhere. They did like the fries but I noticed all the cheese I requested on the side were actually drizzled on top which didn't bother me much. However, I did have to ask for the Mac and cheese side which was forgotten and I had to ask for water cups twice which always makes me feel bad to feel like a constant bother. I did enjoy my wrap which tasted fresh and I didn't really need the side sauce for extra flavor. The Mac and cheese was really good and creamy. My husband liked the sandwich and the spice level was good and easily tolerable for him (someone who enjoys spicy food in general). We ended ordering a cookies and cream milkshake for the kids. They drank about 1/2. Overall, it was a good meal but I would prefer better and friendlier customer service.
