I love being able to order on my phone and drive to my favorite location to pick it up. Very delicious juice!

As usual, very good juice and service. Only negative was the timing. I ordered ahead with a pick up time about 15-20 minutes after I ordered so I planned my arrival to coincide with the pick up time. I then waited an additional 20 plus minutes after the pick up time. The store was busy and the employees were definitely working hard, so it seemed that maybe they were understaffed. I would probably not have ordered though if the pick up time had been accurate in the app when I was ordering because I didn't have a ton of time. It wasn't the employees' fault it was just the pick up time was WAY off.

I recently visited Nektar Juice Bar in La Jolla to purchase two packs of their celery juice cleansers. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. When I got home, I realized that only one of the packs was actually celery juice, while the other contained a mix of completely different juices that I did not ask for. This was frustrating because it disrupted the cleanse I had planned and cost me a significant amount of money. I called the store right away to explain the situation and asked if I could come back to exchange the incorrect cleanse for the celery one I originally requested. I was told there was nothing they could do, even though the mistake was made on their end. I found this response very unhelpful and dismissive as a customer. Because of this experience, I do not plan on returning. Customer service and accuracy are extremely important, especially when people are spending a lot on specialty health products.

Service is always slow here . I was the only one in the store and it took almost 15 minutes to get a simple juice and waffle. I always have to ask for more napkins because they never restock.

This was my first time going to a juice bar, and I loved it! The staff was super friendly, and the atmosphere was clean and comfy. The smoothie was amazing and the acai bowl was off the charts! Fresh ingredients, high in protein, and absolutely delicious. Oh, and SO affordable. Impressed, to say the least.

First time trying Nekter and I loved it! I think it's better than Jamba Juice.

Nekter offers a great selection of juices and fruit combinations for any palate. You can purchase bowls, juice & smoothies. Everything is so fresh. There are also healthy snacks, water & drinks. I Had the Acai Banana Berry and it was fantastic! Highly recommended!

Enhance the quality and production of smoothies by increasing the amount of protein from peas. Currently, the protein content is too low, making the smoothies feel more like juices.
