The cold brew açaí bowl is soupy so I guess their açaí bowls are not thick, it’s just a smoothie put in a bowl with toppings, like it makes a sound falling off the spoon lol. After 3 minutes it is now a smoothie which you can see in the picture. False advertisement for an açaí bowl! I should’ve gotten a straw instead?but I’m a coffee fiend so wanted to try. It doesn’t taste like cold bre. I’m mostly mad at myself for being out over $10 for trying it because I had a feeling it would only taste like banana, which it does.

Very rude staff, I got a mobile order today and one of the employees who I think was the manager was on the phone while talking to me and asked me "are you here for a mobile order?" I said yes. They then said "you are?" I said yes. She asked AGAIN I said "yes mobile order" and then she yelled at me saying " YOU ARE?" I said "ohhh" because I realized she was asking for my name. If she realizes I'm not understanding then she needs to change the question asking for my name. The experience was very rude and I'm concerned how kind they are to their collegiate level employees if they were this rude to me as a paying customer who tipped. I swear I've also heard the older women employees complain about not getting tips before too a while back. Regarding food: Their food options are great and they are always tasty :) only problem is customer service.

college kids can be rude and judgmental as hell for your requested modifications. like yes i wanted granola in this smoothie to replace a sherbet, and i know what it tastes like so i know what's best for me. they ended up making me the wrong drink and wrong size. rough lol.

Great smoothies. Connor was the person who made my smoothie and he was extremely friendly!

Watching the tall girl work was like watching paint dry... someone needs to get this girl some Ritalin.

I am a big fan of the Zone because of the awesome blend of peanut butter and bananas, combined with a healthy dose of protein - either soy or whey. The prices are a little high, which is the rationale for 4 stars instead of 5.

I am very busy with my exams but I have to write this review because it definitely deserves to spend some time on it. First time I went to "juice it up" just to try something healthy and new. And I ordered a sea breeze smoothie, I am not exaggerating if I say this is the best smoothie I have ever had. Very good and refreshing. And the guys there were very friendly and they helped me to choose my favorite since it was my first time and I was not sure what to choose. They asked me what fruits are my favorite and then suggested that I take sea breeze smoothie. It was great experience. I went many times there and I recommend it to my family and friends and of course to you guys!

Whyyy no gluten free granola for bowls??? And peanut butter that does not have sugar and preservatives in it!?.. so close to being great but just not there yet.

Every time I go when it is busy they do not fill up my bowl with everything they either put very little granola or very little fruit. Lets not forget how expensive the bowl is for them not to put the full servings.
My experiences here have been so-so. Good enough to come back I guess. They offer the free boosts about 1/2 the time I go, and tend to always be joking around with each other and too busy to give you their full attention . Today I went to order a bagel and cream cheese and a smoothie and they informed me they were out of cream cheese (have been for like 6 months now) so I got a pretzel instead,no big deal. IT WAS BURT TO SHREDS. As I was waiting for my smoothie and pretzel a man went up and ordered a smoothie bowl topped with bananas to be told they are out of bananas. Lol how is a smoothie place out of bananas?! It baffles me. I'll be back for the smoothies, but won't expect much from them.

The healthiest "food" option campus has to offer. I would rate them higher if their smoothies were blended all the way through. Twice I have had chunks of fruit in the bottom of my drink. They need to make sure their smoothies are completely, well smooth. The employees scoop the frozen fruit that is already pre-cut into small chucks, so I don't understand how this is a reoccurring issue. Beware the sherbet has dairy. I prefer the green smoothie over the mango one, for the dairy issues.

Don't come here for a bowl. Too soupy and had to buy a granola bar to put granola on it. Coming from a former Nekter employee, spending $8 on their bowls is ridiculous.

Healthy smoothies on-campus.

Was on campus for a meeting and don't venture to this location often but stopped by here to get my fav Evergreen smoothie. Not sure why the bad reviews, I was greeted by a very friendly cashier who asked me how my day was and made my smoothie with a smile on her face. It was prompt, well blended and tasted delicious! The shop also appeared clean, well stocked and well maintained. I'll definitely be back next time I'm on campus! :)
