Juicy Fruit - San Francisco

They use fresh fruit—no powders here. You’ll get what's in season. It’s the best spot in Chinatown, and the prices are comparable to the corporate juice chains, but the flavor is definitely superior, especially if you prefer supporting local businesses. P.S. Both adults and toddlers love it!

I'm from Los Angeles, and this place surpassed any smoothie shop I've visited back home. They offer a wide variety of exotic fruits, including Hawaiian papayas, apple bananas, longan fruit, Korean pears, and more. I visited on three different occasions, and the first time I had a mango papaya smoothie and a strawberry banana smoothie—it was absolutely heavenly. However, during my second and third visits, it seemed like they used less fruit, and I mostly tasted the yogurt or whatever creamy base they used, which was a bit disappointing. Nonetheless, the quality of the fruit and the friendliness of the staff really stood out. I will definitely come back the next time I'm in the city! (I might just offer to pay extra for more fruit since it's still cheaper and more delicious than any smoothie place I know.)

This place doesn 't look like much, but it 's the real deal.The guava juice I ordered was freshly blended, thick with fruit, with a natural, subtle sweetness that was worlds better than the cloying canned guava nectar drinks I 've turned to in the past to get my guava fix. Already planning to go back to try their other flavors.The folks working the register and the prep area were also really kind.

Very fresh fruit juices or smoothies. My family got the papaya, pineapple, and mango smoothie. The papaya smoothie was very mellow (Hawaiian papaya is very mild) so you only get a hint of the papaya. Pineapple and mango smoothies have a more pronounced flavor. I think I will get the papaya juice drink next time. Next door (I don't know if it's the same owner or what) is a fresh fruit shop. The fruit is very fresh and beautiful! I bought some Hawaiian papayas (I'm waiting for it to ripen) and some longan. The longans are huge and very juicy. So tasty! I usually order my tropical fruit online, but this shop has them beat. I will definitely come back for some juice and some fresh fruit next door.

This restaurant is definitely not closed, despite what the listing may indicate. My husband and I visited on July 6, 2022, and I ordered a strawberry and banana smoothie. It was hands down the best smoothie I’ve ever tasted. It was incredibly fresh, made from fresh fruit right in the shop, and everything is prepared to order—nothing is ever left sitting out. The smoothie cost $8, and they kindly provided my husband with a smaller cup of the leftover smoothie at no additional charge, which made him very happy. There’s no waste and no unnecessary additives at all. The two ladies working there that day were exceptionally friendly. This place is truly a hidden gem, and I highly recommend it!
