Tropical Smoothie Cafe

Great experience this morning. Ordered on app, dined in. Had food and smoothie. Everything was very tasty and service was friendly and accommodating!

Wow.. this is good. Perfect treat after hot yoga. Icey and smoothe like creme at the same time. Bae says it tastes pretty good too. She likes the quality cups and plastic straws. I got the peanut butter protein smoothie. Bae the jetty punch. There was plenty of seating. The place was mostly full of customers on a late Monday evening. The workers were getting out orders quick. 8/21 - Stopped in after hot yoga. Peanut paradise breeze was delicious. Service was also great. Bumping up rating for service from 4 to 5 stars. Based off the combined visits experience. 9/15 Came after yoga again. I was feeling a smoothie on the icey side. With a cup made to keep it cool.

I ordered an açaí bowl and added mango and pineapple. The mango was fermented, the blueberries were not fresh and mushy, and the açaí purée wasn’t really a purée but more like juice. On top of that, there was an excessive amount of honey, though I’m not even sure it was real honey — more like sugar syrup. The whole thing was overly sweet, stuffed into a tiny jar, and tasted terrible. This is the worst thing I’ve eaten in a long time. According to the label, it wasn’t even fresh — it was prepared 11 days ago and was basically expired!

Do not be fooled. This place currently has a C on the NYC Health Food Inspection site. The restaurant took down their physical C rating and put up their older grade pending sign. People who buy from here are unaware of what is going on in their kitchen and the 53 violations they currently have.

Honestly this has to be the worse tropical smoothie establishment in NY ... all the ones in long island are freaking amazing ! The people that work there are pleasant, kind, welcoming, and get the recipes right. Queens ! Literally its like visiting a whole different franchise ... its like they have another recipe book or the workers just could care less about their job and no its not cause the workers are young ... long island tropical smoothies are full of young people working there and their work ethic is just in them .... here in queens its literally a 0/10. Theyre either not hiring the right people or no proper training is provided to these kids. Don't have high expectations from this location.
