We had an amazing experience working with Nektar Juice Bar for a recent corporate event. They came onsite and created a smoothie and açaí bowl bar for our attendees, and it was an absolute hit. Throughout the entire event, all we kept hearing was, “This is the best vendor ever!” The team was incredibly kind, professional, organized, and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The setup was seamless, the presentation was fantastic, and the quality of the smoothies and açaí bowls was outstanding. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. The cleanliness and attention to detail did not go unnoticed by our guests. I highly recommend Nektar Juice Bar for corporate events, employee appreciation days, wellness activations, or even just stopping by for a smoothie or açaí bowl. We couldn’t have been happier with the experience and look forward to working with them again!

So on the 20the of Jan 2026 between 2:30pm and 3:pm thereabouts. I strolled in to make an order. The lady at the store said she didnt know how to make my chocolate bowl and I should wait for the colleague. Apparently I saw the guy outside with the big thrash. I'm a regular here so I know all of them except the new faces. So I waited. He came in and she told him to make my chocolate bowl. This guy, picked the gloves but did not was his hands before picking the gloves. I was like you just disposed the thrash and you did not wash your hands, please could you wash your hands. Immediately he got furious and went wash his hands and started fixing my bowl. Just cos he was upset while fixing my bowl, he did not listen to the lady for proper instructions. He put Agave when I said NO AGAVE in my bowl. So I told him I was uncomfortable with him fixing my bowl and he should please teach the new lady on how to do it. So she can fix me a new bowl without Agave. So he thrashed the one he was doing and the Lady took over. To think that I addressed him as "Sir" and he's like "I'm not Sir". I was trying to be as polite as I could. This guy had an attitude the whole time and was cussing at me in low tones. Listen, I love your chocolate bowl but I'll rather starve than have this guy ever fix my bow in this life. Your seats are dirty, both in and outside. Fine, they wear their gloves but you can see the part where they have to open the fridge is not clean. Its like picking germs on gloves. I prefer the other fair guy, wish he was around today. He is more cheerful and you can tell he likes his job. This particular guy of today, on the dark side, he's smallish with something like a winter hat. He's upset with the world. Forever frowning and i have always avoided him. I love my food coming with good energy and you cannot wear such angry face all the time and make my food. I'll put this place on suspension for some time while i go to people who deserve my money and my time. I travel miles to get a smoothie bowl just for this nonsense. UPDATE. So I went back to Nekter and the angry face guy is still there. Met some other Lady. She took our orders and said the guy will make my Smoothie of which I refused and told her she has to be the one to do it. Now the sad thing is, they were talking and she kept looking at the guy and laughing to the point she lost focus. I couldn’t understand what the giggling was all about. She did my Smoothie and after saying several times not to use Agave, she used Agave and had to start all over again. This loss of focus in preparing customers order calls for concern. She did the Juice for my friend perfectly though she touched the broom for sweeping while making the juice. I think this was a reflex action while trying to get it out of her way. The Lady seems customer friendly but should be careful not let the angry faced guy to get her in trouble. Done with this location.

Hi Goz - Thank you for taking the time to share what happened. I’m sorry for the experience you had. What you described is not how we expect our team to operate, and I understand why it left you frustrated and uncomfortable. Cleanliness, food safety, and respectful communication are non-negotiable for us. Our manager has already reviewed the situation with the team and reinforced proper procedures and expectations. I also want to acknowledge that we do have newer team members, and while that’s never an excuse for a poor experience, it does mean we are continuing to train and reinforce standards, especially for items that are ordered less frequently in-store like the chocolate bowl. If you’re open to it, I’d appreciate the opportunity to follow up directly and make this right. We truly value our regular guests and would like the chance to earn back your trust. You can reach me at [email protected]

I always receive good service at this location. I purchased a Build Your Own Açaí Bowl with the Banana Berry base with hempseed granola, strawberries, blueberries, and chia seeds.

Great experience overall - I was able to order online while working from home. Someone else grabbed my order and had no problems. I got my usual acai bowl and mango smoothie. Both were tasty and nutritious! Nice visit, thanks!

I always have a great experience with Nekter stores and have picked up from the Azusa location twice. My order is always made well and on time. Thank you! My acai bowl hit the spot on this hot day :)

Nékter’s acai bowls are a healthy, delicious meal that’s perfect for lunch or dinner! The new build-your-own bowl option lets me pick all my favorite toppings, and the app makes ordering ahead so easy. Plus, the rewards are a nice touch!

I'm a long-term Nekter fan, this location in particular is fantastic! We made customizations to smoothie bowls and chia pudding parfait and everything was exactly as ordered! Our cashier Alejandro was very accommodating (gave us extra cups for sharing, strawberry chia jam on the side, etc.) Portions were also very generous - delicious and filling! Nekter is a great chain and I recommend this location especially.
