LIV Juice Bar and Smoothies — Restaurant in San Diego

It is very unfortunate that I have to write this review. My friends and I used to love this place. The employees were friendly and accommodating. And the food we were served was excellent. But the last 3 times we have been here the food and smoothies were very bad.

Today my friend went to get a smoothie and burrito. The smoothie was supposed to be peach, and was clearly made with a couple peaches and water. Very thin and lacking flavor.

The more disturbing thing was she was served a burrito (cold as well) with under cooked and uncooked chicken. The wrap was also missing cilantro. But the uncooked chicken is of more concern obviously.

Her previous visit she asked for the lentil soup. And the owner served it to her BLENDED. Which is not how this soup is served. I am not sure what the owner is doing but when she visits, and the owner served es her she has an awful experience and gets sick. Or recives bad or cold food. It seems the owner has some personal vendetta against 2 of my friends. If we are served by the regular employees there are no issues, and food is great.

Our recent experience Is One Star. I posted the 2 stars as we used to love this place. But we will no longer go here. It's...

I visit this place about once every other week or so. The experience is always reliably consistent and in my book, this is a wonderful thing.

I have tried a few things on the menu but I seem to always come back to the breakfast bagel with some breakfast sausage or bacon added on. The food is always freshly prepared and taste delicious. I'm also a big fan of the matcha bowl. They always top it off with a generous scoop of fresh fruit that you can see on display as soon as you walk in. I did try the acai bowl and thought it was ok. I am definitely more of a matcha person.

The restaurant itself is cute but nothing to write home about. Honestly with food as good as theirs, I don't care how the restaurant looks. It is always clean and the employees are always welcoming. I don't believe English is any of their first language but it has never been a problem with getting my order correct the first time around.

One caveat to my review is I've never eaten lunch there. I Love breakfast food for any meal of the day and they serve breakfast later than most other...

This has been one of my top favorite places to get smoothies, juices, salads, and sandwiches for a long time. They’re consistent with the freshness of their ingredients, the quality of their food, and their great service. They expanded their menu options in the last couple years, so it’s nice to have more variety; I still tend to stick to my favorites though! My go to foods are the club sandwich, tuna avocado sandwich, and kale salad. The club sandwich is packed with turkey, ham, and bacon. It also comes with tomato, mayo, and baby spinach (which I love). The Tuna Avocado sandwich is packed with their homemade tuna salad, plenty of avocado, provolone, spinach, and onion. The Kale salad comes with either chicken or tuna (I always choose tuna), almonds, feta cheese, avocado, and a raspberry vinaigrette.

The salad My favorite fruit juices are the vampiro and the eye opener. And my favorite smoothies are the Choco monkey and...
