Sip Fresh — Restaurant in Torrance

I was having a good day. I really, really was.

Decent weather— nice and sunny, so I figured it was the perfect day for an outing or two. I went to a park, called a friend, and then I decided I’d worked up enough of a sweat to go grab myself something refreshing.

Having remembered hearing good things about Sip Fresh, I finished my phone call and headed over to the mall. Love the place, so many options, so the prospect of trying something new was exciting.

I make my way to the Sip Fresh corner, there’s a bit of a line, so I go and wait. I did recall that the employees were friendly and engaging; it was definitely making a good first impression on me!

So, it gets to be my turn, and I order the Mango Iced Tea, because I was feeling fruity. The worker greeted me with a smile, we completed the transaction, and I went on my phone for a minute as I waited.

When they give me the drink, however, it’s nearly ALL ice. Safe to say, I was frozen with shock.

I glance around at the other customers, trying to see if it’s just me, but apparently not… With one exception, most everyone’s drinks seemed to be comprised of mostly ice as well. It literally looked like they’d already drank their beverages, but we’d all JUST NOW been handed our drinks.

Because it seems to be the standard procedure here —for whatever reason— I didn’t hassle the workers. They were efficient, seemed to follow the same careful procedure for each order, and were very friendly, as I’ve mentioned. Fair enough.

But if you’re craving a delicious, fruity beverage, and not a cup of ice? Maybe...

in december stopped by and had a bad experience with the manager, december 11 @ 9p, he was rude, and had no clue what customer service means, all i did was ask for a receipt and he made no eye contact and said if you really need a receipt go to the register so she can reprint for you, he took my receipt when filling the order and then tore the receipt never asking if i wanted the receipt back, if it was done so no one claims the order again it can be as easy as a completion note or mark on the receipt, he was a real jerk, and they fill the cups with ice before they fill with the juice for the price of each drink they can at least provide a receipt with a smile instead of being rude, and as the manager he is what the other employees look up to, I feel bad for the employees, they actually apologize for his attitude, fire this...

I came here for the first time and expected a very fresh drink, cause it was burning hot today. When I was told to pay 7 dollars I was shocked but tried to understand. Then I took my first sip. I was in absolute shock. It was wayyy too sweet and not fresh at all. But since it was expensive I tried to tell myself it was all okay. But every time I took a sip, the pressure was getting bigger. It was too expensive to throw away, but too sweet to keep drinking. I was expecting a natural tasting fruit juice, but it tasted too artificial. My shoulders were getting heavier. My back started hurting as well. The pressure was crawling up to me. And eventually swallowed me up. I had...
