This place is really quite fancy and delightful, and they're serving all the swankiest food and beverages to all the assiduous folks who are holding down jobs in the metropolitan downtown SF area. Most of these workers are likely commuting from somewhere outside of the city because they are sick and tired of being randomly accosted by mentally ill homeless folks who are just trying to get by and pass some time by vigorously encouraging others to hand over some change or scraps of leftover food from a previous meal. But don't focus on that right now because this review is all about the employees of this Joe & the Juice establishment that are coming to work every day and making delicious snacks and healthful meals, along with tasty beverages that are served both hot and cold, though never in the same cup at the same time. The owners and those in charge of the remodeling project really went to town on the interior setting and decorated this place in a pleasing style, with color palettes that entice the senses and create beneficial brainwaves for good feelings in your corpus. I know you will love everything they have to offer, including tons of seasonal products...
Read moreGreat ambience and seating area between south beach and chinatown, a few blocks from ferry building (and the bay). Service and food were ok, Green tonic juice lacked the taste and was watery (too many cucumbers?). Sandwiches were also average, I wasn't a big fan of the bread and how they were each put in a pink thin box. I like my pastries boxed and dolled up, not my sandwiches, but some may find it cute.

That person left but I ignored the comment and stayed there for a few more minutes and they again started taking line orders. It probably would have been faster to just order online from the get go. I'll stop by again if I want a peaceful place to sit for some time but not...
Read moreAbsolutely horrible customer service. I can't review any of the menu items because i was basically kicked out of the place. I didn't realize that they closed at 9:00, and I walked in right at 8:55 ( I looked at my watch when this happened), which was my mistake, but I could have been told nicely.
I walked up towards the counter and looked at the big menu board and the guy says "We're closing - order right now or leave." I was kind of shocked at the tone, but calmly said "I'm sorry, what time do you close?" and he responded "Just Leave" and pointed to the door.
I've never been treated so poorly at any restaurant or bar or even a flea market in my life. I don't know how good the drinks are but the customer service is a 0 out of 10. Do not expect to be...
