Smoothie King

I don’t recommend this place to anyone, bad ingredients and not fresh at all plies they used more water than natural juices. The worst smoothie I ever had. The only great thing about this place is the staff, they got the smile and great attitude that’s why I gave then an extra start.

I love this place period! Cant live without smoothie king! Im glad they have this franchise everywhere in the US! Best smoothies in the world!

I place an order for me an my co-​workers I think one of the order was bad but no. Great customer service everything was on point highly recommended for this hot spring break

I wish I could select negative 5 in stars in this app after my experience today! This evening (March 1^st) I walked in Smoothie King about 8:55. I know they close at 9:00. But wait time on a smoothie is about 5 or 6 minutes, I LOVE SMOOTHIE KING, & a business is closed when they’re closed! Before that, a business is still running! As soon as my friend and I walked in, a short, plump, Hispanic employee said «YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!» ((really loud)) & forcefully dropped whatever she had in her hand. She was cursing and angry because I wanted a smoothie??? Then she yelled at her co-​worker «I thought you locked the door?!» Yelling so loud over me speaking that I couldnt think of what I wanted to say to order. Then someone else came to the door and she didn’t want to open the door and said I’m theres no way I’m letting him in” It was still before 9:00! She was extremely attitudinal! & rude! Made my exciting run to Smoothie King to my worst treatment of customer service ever. And I work in customer service! Customers stay in my retail establishment hours after closing! But YOU ARE ON THE CLOCK UNTIL YOU ARE OFF THE CLOCK. That was completely uncalled for! Staying an extra few minutes for late stragglers shouldnt be an issue unless the store closed at 8:55 –_​_​_​– she should be written up.

Terrible customer service. The staff were playing around with each other without any regard for the customer. One specific girl who had half her head shaved off (couldn’t get her name) was standing behind the register when I approached her to place my order she said she was just standing there but she wasn’t taking orders that I had to wait for the other cashier. Mind you, there was only 1 customer inside the store. They were not busy by any means. The staff treats you as if you were an inconvenience therefore next time I will take my business to Jamba Juice. At least they’re friendly!

Love their vegan options! The nutty one is my fav. The people are always nice and they make ur smoothie super fast.

I have been going to this store regularly for almost 3 years. There is a lot of competition with smoothie stores in the area but what set this place apart was that they were dog friendly up until about a week ago. In the beginning they used to greet me and my dog by giving her a biscuit. Then they stopped doing that, which is fine, but supposedly the new manager is against dogs in the store. What does this person expect… me to keep my dog in the HOT car here in South Florida! I will NOT be going there any longer. I told the staff this and they agreed it is a bad business decision made by the new manager. Dumb!

Great service!!! The cashier was really nice and gave me good suggested about what to get since I was confused lol. The place is really clean and smells good. Great choice of music also :)

cool and chill place.
staff is very friendly. they gave me tips on how to personalize your smoothie taste thumbs up for that! i go here every week! def recommend this place!

Lazy employees. Costing their owner money by closing up early. The owner might need to look into hiring new talent. The smoothies are dope tho

The smoothies are pretty good, especially after a workout and they are filling. I like to get a protein shake after a workout. I’ve always hated the taste of protein shakes and bars but they do a really great job of making it taste so good that you don’t think about the fact that the shake has protein in it. Of course I like to make my own shakes but if I can’t or don’t feel like it, they are the next best thing in my opinion. The prices are ok (could be a little better) and they have a lot of different flavors to choose from, which is a huge bonus that works in their favor.

Walking thru the door, my best friend and I was greeted with a loud, energetic «Hello, welcome to Smoothie King». The 2 employees working the counter greeted us in a very inviting tone. I love that. Very few businesses will acknowledge you, let alone greet every person as soon as you walk through the door. The place smelled very fresh with fruits and the ingredients of shakes and juices filled the room. The facility was super clean and the air was cool/​crisp.
Because we had just come from working out, I needed something to refuel. I was very confused and undecided in choosing what I wanted. My best friend had made her own shake filled with kale, other fruits and veggies. So of course she wanted me to order the healthiest green smoothie they offered (blah). I on the other hand, wanted something sweet and delicious. The smoothie King associate gave me a suggestion and told me to try a smoothie called the Hulk. It has ice cream and milk in it and I am lactose intolerant (it sucks) lol. But he assured me that once I tried it I would never try anything else on the menu and that the milk could be substituted with soy milk. Buuuuut, on the other hand, I was tempted to try the vegan drink/​smoothie. I couldn’t resist temptation so I decided to go with the HULK. One sip and I fell in love!
ABSOLUTELY THEE MOST TASTIEST SMOOTHIE I HAVE EVER HAD!!!
Thanks Smoothie King!

Love smoothie king! Used to be a Jamba Juice fanatic, but smoothie king gives you more bang for your buck.

We are planet smoothie die hards but this smoothie king has changed our mind. We’re here on vacation and so we’ve been several times and the staff is always nice. One of the staff made some great recommendations and so we found some new options that taste great and are better for you. The smoothies are expensive if you’re not familiar with their pricing but we use them as meal replacements so it’s not a huge issue.

This is kind of interesting, so read ’til the end…
I had never been to a Smoothie King before. I had been on my bike, and it was hot. I wanted something cool, like a frozen yogurt. Smoothie King was there, so I gave it a try. EIGHT BUCKS later, I commented that it was a lot of money for a smoothie, and the cashier said, «Well, it’s a meal replacement, so it’s worth it.» Well, I did not want a meal replacement. I just wanted something quick, cold and tasty.
The menu was overwhelming, so I told that employee that I didn’t want a fruity drink but instead something chocolate or vanilla. She recommended the Gladiator. It comes with two fruits, so I ordered raspberry and preach. Then when I went to pay, it was $ 8.03, but I hadn’t paid any attention to the price because I just didn’t expect it to be so outrageous– and that is OUTRAGEOUS.
The smoothie was overwhelmingly fruity. No taste of vanilla. I hadn’t wanted a meal replacement, so the rest of my day was ruined for meals. Besides that, however, I felt sluggish, burpy and gross the rest of the day– the entire day. Later I developed a nasty headache.
I used the survey link on the receipt, and the web address didn’t work. Kept getting an error page. I googled Smoothie King survey and immediately found it. The survey site doesn’t allow you to enter enough characters just to answer a very simple question, so that turned me off from Smoothie King even more.
I felt it was a disgusting and highly overpriced experience, and I’m nauseated just thinking of going back there. How dare a clerk recommend a MEAL REPLACEMENT just because I requested vanilla or chocolate.
Well… here’s an update. I received an email from an area manager a couple of days later in response to what I had indicated on their survey (the one you get a link to on your receipt). A very nice young man said that:
1) There was absolutely no reason that I should have been offered a meal replacement. That is a huge amount of protein, he said, which can make you feel sluggish and unwell if you’re not used to it. It is, after all, called «The Gladiator.»
2) They have snack items that I should have been offered, and he acknowledged that their menu and its design is overwhelming (menus are on the wall as well as on the counter). He said that they are redesigning the menu for that reason. He said that they have low calorie frozen yogurt items I should have been offered, as I hadn’t wanted a fruity shake to begin with, and I had been craving frozen yogurt, but Smoothie King was right there in front of me.
3) They are aware of problems with the survey website– it allows too few characters to be typed in response to questions, and the link on the receipt doesn’t work.
Then, he said that he was leaving a gift card for me at the location for me to try it again. He was a nice, cheerful guy– and he laughed at my jokes.
So, I upgraded my review from one star to two stars. I will emphasize, however, that I was actually suffering for the rest of the day and night after that Gladiator meal replacement smoothie that I had no intention of ordering and paying $ 8 for. I was sluggish, very sleepy, belching and later had a splitting headache. I cannot afford to throw eight bucks around on a midday treat.
So, nice attention to my plight, and a gift card (I don’t know yet for how much). Good luck to Smoothie King!

I finally had to do it– I have to write about how HORRIBLE this location is (and I never write reviews). I started going to Smoothie Kings about a year ago when I lived in Tampa as I ate there nearly every day for lunch. From then on, I was obsessed and would frequent at least 7 times a week, sometimes two times a day, no matter what city or state. When I moved to Aventura, I was disappointed to see the closest SK was near 123^rd, and nowhere close to anywhere I ever go. Still… I made it there as much as I could, and their reputation held strong as they never disappointed. When I saw this SK coming in RIGHT NEXT to my house!!! I was so excited (to say the least). So, I went quite a few times after they opened. The service sucked, but I let it go as a fluke since they just opened. As I continued to go, I noticed my blood boiling by the time I left every time. Some reasons include the obnoxious staff taking FOREVER to make literally ONE smoothie, and waiting in a line for fifteen minutes when behind two customers. I stopped going as a result. So today, almost 6 months later, I decided to give it a shot again as I was craving my old faithful, basic 3 ingredient smoothie that I got at every other SK, Whey protein, coconut and strawberries. Of course, the server tells me I have to order one of the most expensive smoothies that come with 2 different proteins and fruits, and modify it (which comes with extra expenses). What I used to pay $ 4.50 (more or less) for turned into a 7 dollar smoothie. Although EVERY other SK I visited could find a logical way to charge for such an item, this location just all around does not seem to have one bit of common sense. Again, this is based on several experiences at this location which lead me to know well enough. Today was the final straw for me. I’m normally a very calm and understanding person, but today I had to storm out of there.
Would rate a ZERO if I could!
Try Juice and Java or Miami Squeeze for an awesome smoothie instead!

I’ve been a Jamba fan since that fateful sip at a location in SoCal years ago, but this Smoothie King location is closer to where I live than the NMB Jamba. It’s big, clean, and has snacks and energy/​supplements for those who need it (although you’re probably more suited to visit the VitaminShoppe 50 steps to the right…). Either way, it’s a quick in and out for smoothie lovers alike.
FYI — Since I was in the mood for a more «natural» option, ask for their smoothies as «skinny» which eliminates their turbinado.

This new Smoothie King is fantastic! Tatiana, the assistant manager is a smoothie expert and was extremely helpful in allowing me to get my «smooth on» this morning.
They open at 7am for all of us early morning gym rat types and they have an ungodly amount of protein and miscellaneous health products stocked to the ceiling. The prices are decent for Aventura standards as well. I’ll be back again and again!
