Smoothie joint — Restaurant in Lake View Township

This review will be about their smoothie cleanse.

First, the customer service here was superb. I have over ten years of experience in the industry so I have every high expectations and this place surpassed them all. The young ladies that came in while I waited on my juices were friendly and CLEAN! The first thing I noticed was how they immediately washed their hands before touching anything behind the counter. They also washed their hands and put on gloves between each order.

Next, I tried their juice cleanse for two days. At the start of it, I weighed 192lbs.

I followed the owners instructions and fasted, consuming only water between 8pm and 8am. Day 1, I urinated frequently, experienced lots of gas and bloating. Day 2, my system began flushing itself out. Woooohhhhhh! Transitioning from two years of unhealthy eating and 30lbs of weight gain my body was shocked with all the nutrients I consumed over those two days. By Day 3, the effects of the cleanse continued and I am slowly introducing solids back into my diet (salads, soups, low carbs).

I have been done with the cleanse now for three days. Some things that I have noticed are I am no longer craving salty, sugary, or unhealthy foods. My appetite has gone down significantly. I have more energy. My stomach bloat has reduced (even while being on my cycle). I also have lost 6lbs. I know I know it was probably water weight, but my gut feels rejuvenated. I highly recommend this place, as I have tried all the juices being on this cleanse, and the customer service is one of the best in the city! Thank you...

The Smoothie Joint is hands down the best juice bar in the city. I stopped in after a tough leg day at the gym and their Green Line smoothie with added ginger and turmeric hit every mark for recovery. It was smooth, refreshing, packed with anti-inflammatory ingredients, and super easy on the stomach and braces.

What really sets them apart is the people. They were genuinely friendly and welcoming and even gave me an extra smoothie to gift to a friend just because. That kind of generosity and vibe is rare and makes you want to come back often.

Highly recommend the Green Line with ginger and turmeric if you’re recovering from a workout, feeling sore, or just want something clean and energizing. Their ingredients are fresh, the blends are smooth, and it’s clear they care about both health and community.

Also shoutout to their Berwyn location. Same great quality and service. Whether you’re near Wrigleyville or out in the suburbs, The Smoothie Joint is...

I initially had a poor experience with an acai bowl, but Telesha, the manager, completely turned it around. Upon reading my initial review, she reached out, was incredibly kind, and explained what had happened. Telesha and her daughter welcomed me back with a complimentary bowl that was absolutely delicious. Their exceptional customer service and genuine care made all the difference. I highly recommend this place now, thanks to the wonderful experience they provided. Thank you, Telesha and team, I'll be...
