    Avocolada-debated b/w this and peanut butter but choice had less calorie and refreshing, no sugar added. Sweet enough from ingredients. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Clean with high top counters, short walk from my Office and this was across the main gate of the Nats stadium in opposite side from Gatsby! Good addition to this already varied go to grubs & drinks stations! Only smiles!

    The Tropical Smoothie in Navy Yard is officially open! I stopped by for a quick breakfast smoothie. This location operates like more of a carry out - there aren't really any places inside to chill and enjoy your food/smoothies, but it was pretty bright and clean on the inside. The employees were super friendly, and I enjoyed my morning smoothie. This is a great addition to the neighborhood.

Its warm, clean design makes it quite welcoming for enjoying avocado toast with smoked salmon, which brings one to a place of spiritual oneness. With white walls, natural wood-grain tables and countertops, Toastique's design radiates minimalist, urban style while remaining inviting. Any time I have been there, the wait times have been stress-free, and the queues move quickly. Food-wise, you can't go wrong with their avocado toast with smoked salmon. With a generous portion of smoked salmon on top of avocado mash, on perfectly toasted sourdough bread, creating a place of tremendous well-being. The cucumbers, marinated tomatoes, red onion, capers, and a sprinkle of microgreens make for a fully satisfying meal without feeling like you are overdoing it with your life choices. Drink-wise, I always go for cold brew and the cold brew never lets me down there. Last time, they had a peanut-butter cold brew and a black cherry one, both of which were magical. This Toastique delivers every time.

We hoped to find a place that offered decaf coffee since it was late in the day, but really wanted something warm since it was a bit chilly outside. Unfortunately, this location of Toastique does not offer decaf - they only have a single hopper for their coffee, so it is not an offering. We were going to find another place, however, they said how about a hot chocolate or a tea. My friend is vegan and inquired if their hot cocoa was vegan, as most places have dairy in the chocolate. The cashier went to look at the chocolate syrup and also had another person look at it to verify it's vegan. My friend ordered a hot chocolate with oat milk. Even though it was busy, we only waited about 5 minutes for her drink. We appreciated the effort to double check it was vegan, though I do wish they had decaf options.

As we were walking back towards our hotel, we actually were passing here so I chose it for our din din spot. I thought for sure it was going to be packed but luckily it was not. I knew I wanted a burger but was struggling with choosing which one. Hubs knew he wanted the Cheesesteak and knew I wanted fries. I went with the Smokehouse burger. We grabbed a seat and did not wait long for our food to come out. I really enjoyed my burger and scarfed it down! I paid for sauces, which were tiny and super overpriced. Hubs enjoyed his cheesesteak but he prefers meat. I had a bite and thought it was really flavorful and very closely tasting like the real thing. I noticed later this is a chain, which is pretty cool. I think the prices were pretty steep so I might skip on the fries next time. The food could have been warmer as well. Definitely worth a visit and will most likely be back when in DC again.

There's also sanitizer available too at the kiosk. The employees are very friendly, professional & highly social. All the times I've been here. They're always smiling and happy. Which is a major plus. The smoothies have always tasted amazing. They're usually thick and not watered down which is a major plus. Whenever a smoothie is thick. It means a good amount of fruit was used to make it which is very good since the smoothie is not heavily liquified. The overall environment is clean. It can be noisy at certain times due to it being a shared environment with L'Enfant Plaza. But most of the time it's quiet and relaxed. Also I've noticed after they make the smoothies they put the blender containers in the sink and rinse them. So many smoothie places take shortcuts and just reuse the same blender containers without rinsing in between orders which is bad. Here they actually thoroughly rinse the blender containers which is a major plus. The pricing isn't bad compared to other smoothie places. Also they carry various food items here too. I've always got the smoothies though because they're highly addictive. Lol.... The general crowd is mainly adults mostly government workers from inside of L'Enfant Plaza. But during various times. It's all different classes and ages because the spy museum which is next door attracts various tourists plus there's other food places nearby and people usually get food and smoothies. Also it's attached to the metro rail system. The overall noise level is normal for a retail environment. It can be noisy due to large crowds sometimes. But everyone is very mature. Most of the large groups of kids always have parental chaperones which keeps everyone disciplined and since there's various government offices nearby. There's a very high amount of visible security around which is a plus. Overall A+++++, The woman who works there during the day is a true angel. She's always smiling and even knows my order personally by heart. Customer for life.....

    Birthday cake for breakfast? Say less!…read more I've been dying to try South Block's seasonal Birthday Cake Smoothie because I'm a sucker for anything birthday cake flavored. With this week's heat wave, Thursday felt like the perfect excuse to finally treat myself. The Birthday Cake Smoothie is made with almond milk, banana, vanilla, granola, maple syrup, plant protein, and topped with a dollop of blue CocoWhip, a cherry twist, and sprinkles. I swapped the plant protein for whey protein, and it absolutely hit the spot. It was creamy, refreshing, and definitely gave me the birthday cake vibes I was hoping for without being overly sweet. I ordered ahead through the app, and my smoothie was ready right on time. I also appreciated their pickup setup. Completed orders are placed in a freezer at the counter, so you can simply grab your drink and keep it moving. Quick, easy, and perfect for busy mornings. One thing I love about this location is being inside Union Market. There are plenty of places to sit if you want to enjoy your smoothie or bowl. Now, if you've ever been to Union Market on a weekend or evening, you already know finding a seat can feel like a competitive sport. But in the mornings, it's much calmer with far less foot traffic, making it a great time to visit. Price-wise, it's about the same as the South Block near my office in Arlington. Is it expensive? Sure. But honestly, that's just the reality of smoothie and açaí bowl spots these days. At least here, the quality, convenience, and fresh ingredients make it feel worth the splurge every once in a while. I'll definitely be back... especially if they bring this Birthday Cake Smoothie around again.

South Block has scores of options to choose from and I got the peanut butter & jelly. A+. I tried my fiancee's nutella amalgamation and it was just as good. I need to go back! We had such a great time enjoying it on the picnic tables outside. My only complaint was the acai bowl's were so good, our conversation was practically non-existent... we mostly just ate. They were filling, delicious, and broke my brain as to why I had gone this far in life without making this treat a regular in my pursuit of constantly enjoying the most toothsome dishes to be had. I need to go back. Soon.
