“I was looking for an easy coffee stop off the freeway and maps showed me this location. It felt a little odd coming up to the BMW dealership but it was a really lovely experience! Easy parking, no lines, clean bathrooms, great coffee and smiling faces. Easy on and off the freeway as well!“
“Gear up my friends this particular one is gonna be a long one, here we go!First of all, yeehaw — sunlife cal is reopened at Calabasas Parkway shopping center ?SunLife at Calabasas you r a special one, can’t stress this enough. Everything about Calabasas and everything about SunLife together = makes a thick blend of a dream! ?☀️?☀️⚡️☄️?Although I live in Ca my v First encounter with the brand was in Austin TX - noticing the rare lotus logo got me off of my bird scooter, accompanied with their store scent (smells like happiness) pushed me to sign out of the bird and let the lotus cue take over. Once you walk into the store it builds your curiosity about them, about urself, about your intentions, the world within and the one u live in. It like — sucks u into the present moment, which is objectively speaking "you're alive, hey" - is bright!! It's all coming from personal experience, and don't get me wrong - I ran my miles with many fall-ins to dif marketing sources.. “There was something different about them”, i kept thinking to myself as I was waiting for my smoothie.The locations they pick for their store is top notch - the heart of the area you’re visiting, you’ll not find yourself “bored, or thinking there’s nothing else to explore here”, I promise. Yoga, Pilates, shopping, libraries, advanced art boutiques, farm markets — you name it, it’s all happening around them.Purity of the ingredients deserves a round of applause. They do indeed use clean forms of whether it’s a nut butter or a powder - you can discover that by the first bite on an empty stomach :)Thoughtfulness of the whole store assembly is also wonderful. Your pet will be welcomed first, and their thirst will be satisfied also first.Friendly, knowledgeable and optimistic staff is also not to be missed. Managers are hands on ready to solve anything, as well as let the team grow by letting them find a way to make things work.On another note, my cousin has food allergies and it’s important for him to NOT cross paths w some nuts and fruits and when we asked sunlife staff about allergies, they were nicely accommodating and offered to sanitize the equipment. It’s awesome to have ur fam find interest in things u love (in this case without making them feel left out!)Fav part- store is rich in vivacious, lively colors! The nature elements throughout the store are beyond consideration: the waves on display, crystals, plants, sand, music //maybe this combination varies throughout all of their stores but the ones I have been in had those. Love that they did nutritional health research for u. ?All in all, (as with everything!) if u show up thinking they are a “ripoff, overpriced etc” you’ll (want it or not- you’ll get that experience) But if you come and give them a chance and allow them to make ur day SMOOTHier you’ll be happily surprised and might later join my thoughts on them!Personal favorites:Smoothie: Mint chocolate chipAthlete (w/protein)Shroom shake (keeps u full for 6 hrs)Golden latteBowls: Maui, dragon, samurai and buddha bowlsSuper hero toast - you gotta try; really rich and not ur reg pb jam!and Avocado toast - great!btw if ure not a fan of oatmeal - try theirs, they know their craft, it’s delish!Last but not least,I —————-Highly recommend.Just Recommend.And wanna keep recommending SL from the bottom of my heart!!Cheers to more SunLife’sss!!Calabasas you’ve got a gem of a place!!Vegetarian options: Soups, smoothies, toasts, anything can be modified to removing animal products besides bone broth, and paleo granola (sweetened with honey)Dietary restrictions: AccommodatingKid-friendliness: Very kid friendly!“
“We had lunch at Marmalade Cafe yesterday and had a great experience with our server, Deb. She was personable, but not in an inauthentic way. She attended to every single table with ease and attention to detail. She deserves to be recognized for her hard work. Food was delicious, and came out quickly. We sat outside and really enjoyed this location. Lots of good people watching. And turtles in the fountain outside? Come on. Hit this spot when you’re in the area for some good food, but more importantly, ask for Deb!“
“Porto’s cortadito coffee is one of my favorites!!! Their mocha is so yummy too. Huge fan of their pastries especially the croissants, cheese roll and guava strudel with cheese! The chicken croquette and spinach feta empanada are also incredible! Go here on a weekday to avoid extremely long lines.“
“My boyfriend and I went here on a weekday to try the Green Matcha Danish, Strawberry Croissant, and Popeye Egg-Bacon Spinach. Everything tastes amazing! Our favorites are the Popeye and Strawberry Croissant. The ambiance inside the bakery was really nice and everything is so clean. Also, the staffs were really nice! Would recommend!“
“Came across this restaurant on yelp and decided to stop by because of their great reviews. Im glad i did because now it makes sense why they have such good reviews. Amazing 10/10 service and food. Extremely nice ambiance to whole another level. I would say Their food is the best mediterranean food in not only entire valley but entire california. Trust my words and you wont be disappointed to come and check them out. Thank you and ill be back for sure .“
“What a neighborhood gem! The owner is sweet it made it even better. She explained the Yerba mate process and some recommendations. Loved the mango and maracuya (passion fruit combo). classic green tea has long been touted as the best detox beverage and matcha has been gaining traction in recent years among top trending drinks, yerba mate deserves aThe Yerba mate has an even higher polyphenol content than regular green tea, and the list of benefits don't end there including morning energy, reducing inflammation, helps with detox, protects your heart. Drink was refreshing and tasted delicious.Empanadas are so tasty get the arabe or the ham and cheese if you are not adventurous. Served hot and was so good.The ambience was very chill and relaxing. They have a few tables and even a couch area for a more relaxed setting. Definitely adding this to the rotation.“
“Cool atmosphere, the coffee was strong lol. I got the butter beer latte half sweet with almond milk and it was not too bad. I’ll probably try something else next time though. For food I got a banana loaf but was hoping they had breakfast sandwiches Overall I think I would go back if I’m on that side of the valley!“
“Love love love Ferretiz Grill! They have the best California Benedict! The staff are really personable, and they tend to recognize you only after a few times of going. I've noticed they remember most of their costumers, which I find really sweet. The waiters are also so kind, great service. Really homey feeling place, and the prices are good for what you get! Feels like a hidden Simi gem.“
“Jennifer is amazing and so so sweet! Best coffee i have had in a while and the amazing customer service made my day even more. The coffee bar is connected to a yummy diner which makes the ambiance very homey and comforting. If youre nearby definitely check this place out! :)“
