I've always noticed this spot during my weekend dim sum binges, I've stepped foot in there to explore before but never thought of grabbing a smoothie. One weekend, a co worker friend sends a picture of her smoothie and raves about it. After one of our meetings, we swing by because it was close in proximity and it had been on her mind since she tried it. Mango Crème, please. We wait, the buzzing of the blenders, the tapping of the blender cup from the lady ensuring we get all the goodness of her concoction. Mangos were cut up and a dome top encloses the drink.I hurriedly snap a pic, because of course, phone eats/drinks first and a quickly stick a straw in. Holy f--- what is this?! This mango smoothie changed my life. I'm know a believer of this place. And I will religiously go, every chance I get. We are trying to convert as many people as we can. So if you're near, step in. Grab a smoothie.

It's small and, at the time, mostly a hole in the wall, but I stuck with it because my mentor and his wife raved about the quality of the fruits. They are permaculturists, and all about organic. They're now in their early 80s, and their health is so good, they're medication free. I'm glad I stuck with it. I had to get past my expectations and prejudices of how my produce is presented. My two produce items, jujube and rambutan, were as satisfying as my mentor and wife described. I have to emphasize to you, they swooned and swooned the good stuff is here. The flavor is here. If you grow edible things, you know the disappointment of things that look right but taste is faint, wrong, or non-existent. Flavor is correlated with nutrition content. I loved my jujube and rambutan; Nature being decadent. Two of my closest friends went with me. Only my friend from Hawaii braved a purchase too. She loves rambutan too. The price isn't cheap, but neither is the flavor or texture. Additionally, I always wanted to try sugar cane. I saw their juice bar was BUSY. Plus, the cleanliness of the juice and weigh area lended some comfort of modern convention. They were not hole-in-the-wall-ish. So, I wedged in. It was good! Not too sweet. I've been wanting another one. I should probably do that after writing this review.

Just about any tropical fruit you're craving that's hard to find. Decent varieties when most fruits are in season such as a couple varieties of sapodilla, durian, soursop, sugar apple (sweetsop), limited varieties in mangoes, mangosteen, Hawaiian papaya, jackfruit, young coconuts, and other seasonal items. They also have a snack and drink section where they sell sugar cane drinks and fresh fruit cocktails. I always end up spending too much here. I highly recommend them and come here often but not always things turn out good. They've been expanding and have a whole fridge Nextdoor now

Linda's a hidden gem!!! I've heard of this store from my mom who goes here every now and then to buy fruits but I didn't know they also sell a variety of drinks including sugarcane! For $8, you can get a huge cup (32 oz) of sugarcane juice, which is such a steal here in Houston, and there's a few flavor options to choose from. I'll definitely be back to try other drinks here!! The perfect cure for this Houston heat!

Overall, I thought it was okay. Fruit prices are a tad higher than others for the season. Pink guava was good but again, quite expensive. Drinks were okay. I got rau ma (pennywort) with coconut juice and a mango creme. Mango creme didn't have a strong mango flavor but glad it came with mango pieces. I came here specifically for a box of mangoes but they ran out on the day I visit. Pennywort with coconut was just okay. $6 per regular size drinks are not bad and if you're on this side of Houston Chinatown then by all means, it's convenient and not crazy expensive.I saw a worker eating the fruits - which I don't mind at all, however, I would have liked her to take off her working gloves.

Amazing fresh fruit options. I think they have the best sugarcane juice in the city. Love the variety of different fresh fruits. They offering catering for corporate events, wedding, and etc. If you're here, do yourself a favor and check out their bakery that is at the front of the shopping plaza.

I was so excited go there to exploring there exotic fruits store , but leave me speechless the lady who make the fruit bowl was very unsanitized she was using her fingers peeling the avocado with NO GLOVE . That is so gross plus all the fruit containers are open no cover flies are everywhere.the staffs were not polite it feel like going to third world country, it was so disappointed for this trip . Not recommended at all eat at your own risk !

This place has wonderfully refreshing drinks. I love their sugarcane drinks, especially the coco cane. Everything is real fruit instead of powder you might get at other places, and it tastes very fresh. When I came, the line seemed long, but it moved quickly. There is one counter to order and then another counter on the side to pick up your drink. It was quite loud and crowded when I came. Note: There's no place to sit. It's a to-go place. Also, the store is not just for selling drinks or smoothies. They also sell a variety of tropical fruits and limited grocery items.

Linda's Tropical Fruits in Bellaire, Houston, is a hidden paradise for exotic and tropical fruit enthusiasts. Their variety of fresh fruits, drinks and tropical desserts are a delight.Their diverse menu includes refreshing drinks, smoothies, slushees, açaí bowls, and Vietnamese desserts. While the green juice I tried was disappointingly sour, I would be willing to try this place again and order something else because of how fresh their products are. This is an unassuming hidden gem, complete with ample parking and quick counter service. The ambiance feels like a grocery store combined with a juicery.TLDR: Linda's Tropical Fruits is a hidden tropical paradise in Bellaire, offering a range of enticing treats. Though my green juice experience fell short, I'm excited to sample other delights from their diverse menu.

Decided to get some açaí bowls today but I wanted to eat it later. No problem at all. Miquel packed up 2 açaí bowls for me with ice so that I can have it when I get home. How awesome is that...? I also love the fruits from here. Unlike other places that I've purchased fruits from where the fruits are black/dead on the inside, I have only experienced fresh and delicious fruits from Linda's. I love this place but it's like going into a Costco for me. I come out spending 200-$300 every time y'all!! The parking lot here gets really busy esp on the weekends so u try coming here during weekdays. They have all types of tropical fruits here that u can think of and they get it shipped in from all over the world. The other thing about this place is they DO NOT ship their fruits. It's a local shop so come on in and buy so exotic fruits yall.
