Fruit Paradise — Restaurant in West Chicago Township

Update: I like this place a lot when they make the consistency of the smoothies correct and not watery, so I usually tell them to add ice so it’s thick and perfect but i shouldn’t have to do that at a smoothie place. Secondly, I would love to come back more often once the 10% surcharge is removed. I just dislike when businesses do this. And I try avoiding places like this but I also want to continue supporting small businesses, especially here because they are so nice!

The empanadas: are great but please be consistent with oven use for them as microwaved can taste very different (if it is a micowaved being used) sometimes I taste a difference.

Again, This place is good and been coming here since they’ve opened but please be sure to make smoothies with the thick consistency so that it is not watered down like a juice and prepare the empanadas in oven each time. I would gladly come back more often if these things listed were to be updated ☺️ Especially the surcharge

Ps: Beautiful, clean cafe with nice plants around. The owner...

When you walk in there's a strong smell of food or something that's not very pleasant and there was no one up front either to greet you. The gentleman that helped us came from the back and didn't really greet us and when my husband asked what the base for the smoothies is (water, milk or 100% fruit) he didn't really give an answer so my husband didn't order anything. I ordered the green Gloria bowl. It took a while, maybe 15 minutes, for me to get my bowl but it was delicious! I think that it must've just been the one guy running the whole place by himself and there was already a table of customers there so my theory is that he read making their order before mine that's why my bowl took so long. I would come back and try other things from their menu. They have a decent variety of items that sound tasty!! I just think they just need more staff to properly run this place otherwise be prepared to wait a few minutes...

Fruit paradise is such a cute hidden gem in Logan square! Locally owned and everything is freshly made. Along with speedy and kind service, the workers answered questions we had and easily made accommodations to our açaí bowl orders! The Hawaiin bowl was AMAZING and their sunflower butter is delicious! They also offered us a free arepa and empanada to try since they are a new business and trying to get more reviews and they were both delicious! The country pork arepa was so well seasoned and the arepa dough was soft like a pillow. The beef empanada had great flavor and the dough was crunchy! Genuinely such a great local business and can't wait come back! 10/10⭐️ (also great...
