Juice Portal

Tasty smoothies. I usually get the Goji Tropical. It's the right amount of sweetness, though turmeric is sometimes strong. The thickness and texture is great. I often feel like I should get the smaller size, but I always end up drinking way more than I expect since it's so good! It's not the most affordable so I get it when I want a healthier treat, but that's the price of produce these days I guess. Service is usually quick. However, sometimes the indoors is too cold when I'm drinking my smoothies, whereas I came on a hot day it's extremely stuffy inside and they didn't have their outdoor seating set up either- not sure what's going on. Either way, not enough to stop me from coming here, and I'd be interested to try their salads or bowls some other time.

Poor customer service. Walked in. Ordered. Paid. Not a single word from the young gal giving me the nasty stare down behind the counter... cept... wait... other people walked in afterwards and she talked to them! Whats up with that?Will I be back? No. First and LAST

I love having a local juice/smoothie bar near me. I stopped by for an açaí bowl to-go, and it was delicious with a strong berry profile.Besides the açaí I got, they have a good variety of other options on the menu, as well as a grab-and-go cooler of healthy snacks. The interior of the juice bar is bright and spacious with some seating to wait for your order or enjoy it on the spot. Staff are friendly and accommodating. I enjoyed coming here and will probably become a regular.

Stopped by to grab a smoothie on a warm afternoon since there wasn't a line and I thought it would be quick. I opted for the Golden Gate smoothie as I saw that it was a popular menu item! The 16oz was $9.50, and the 20oz is $11.50. Service took a little longer than expected (around 10 minutes). The staff don't call out orders after they're made, so you need to pay attention to who ordered before you -- I almost grabbed someone else's order because they ordered the same thing! I saw a family order some acai bowls, so I will def be back to try those out next time.The smoothie itself was fresh and not too thick. The pineapple was the flavor that dominated and it was actually a little bitter. I appreciated that it was not too sweet, so it felt like a nice healthy treat.

Pretty good smoothies but nothing outstanding. I'm giving it 4 stars just because it never wows me but it's still pretty good. It's very clean & spacious in there which I like. The staff are always very sweet too.

One word: smoothies This is right next to my Pilates class so I decided to stop by for a little smoothie to rehydrate and get some nutrients in. I got the: - green portal juice w hemp protein powder: kinda gross... taste like a blended vegan spring roll with all the veggies and herbs. I mean if it's really good for you, I'll take it... $10 ish 3/5 stars

Such a bright and open place, there is indoor seating available. There usually isn't a line, so service is fairly quick. The drinks are always made fresh, just a tad pricey.

Clean and friendly. Nice to have a juice bar that isn't Jamba Juice. Went with the Golden Gate and Goji Tropical since yelpers said most popular.

I've been here a few times and always like to try something different. So far, everything I've tried has tasted really good! I like that it's not too sweet or too runny like some other places. The place is always clean and the staff is friendly. They have a single stall bathroom for customers and it's kept clean as well. Recently I came in for one of their immunity boosters and the goji tropical smoothie. I liked both because they had ginger in them, but it wasn't overpowering. I'm also a big fan of dates and a few of their smoothies have Medjool dates in them, so I was definitely excited to try one of those. Last time I was there I got the blue majik, and so far it's my favorite. I will definitely be back to try the other smoothies they offer.

Before coming to Juice Portal, when I would think of juice shops, this high-end spot in SoMa that my former co-worker used to go to would immediately come to mind. It was a rather small shop, without much else to offer, but their juices always looked appealing - fresh, organic, and creative. However, as good as they looked, it was hard for my head (and my wallet) to wrap around how pricey those small little bottles were. Not exactly the best memory to come away with, but in a twisted turn of events, it helped with my first impression of Juice Portal!Given my past experiences, I wasn't expecting much of anything beyond their juices, though I was certainly hopeful they had more to offer. So, it was more than a pleasant surprise to see that Juice Portal's menu was actually pretty large! In addition to the aforementioned juice options, you can also choose from an interesting variety of smoothies, acai bowls, grain bowls, soups, salads, toasts, and wraps. In other words, way more than I had reasonably hoped for...and yet I've only managed to try their smoothies...-- BERRY GOOD - Banana, Strawberry, Blueberry, and Oat Milk...$10 (20 oz)(https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/juice-portal-san-francisco?select=NRk9zRmzkCPEZVuJIj24cw)It's one of their "simpler" smoothies, but this one was my favorite (what can I say - I'm a simple guy). Fresh, very fruity (the strawberries were faint), and I liked the texture - very smooth with a few chunks of fruit. Delicious!-- COCOA BLISS - Banana, Cacao Powder, Cacao Nibs, Ashwagandha, Himalayan Pink Salt, and Oat Milk...$8 (16 oz)(https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/juice-portal-san-francisco?select=3wyqs1QG8VA7APpAwCSJ7A)I was super hopeful for this one, but it fell a bit short. While it wasn't "bad", it didn't have that classic chocolate and banana flavor that I love. Not sure if it was the cacao powder or the ashwagandha (or both), but it had an earthy, gritty kind of taste to it that I wasn't expecting.-- GOJI TROPICAL - Mango, Ginger, Orange, Goji Berries, Turmeric, and Pineapple Juice...$10 (20 oz)(https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/juice-portal-san-francisco?select=Mc5d5ERQ5MwGeDo25Gh1vg)Just as tropical and delicious as it sounds. The orange, pineapples, and mango were so good and I liked the goji berries at the very end. If there was slightly less turmeric (it was pretty strong), this would've nearly perfect.Along with their smoothies, the other thing I like about Juice Portal is how friendly and accommodating the workers have been. In particular, one of them was super helpful with recommending a smoothie to my friend my first time here. Though, in the interest of fairness, it seems to take longer than I remember from my order to get made during my most recent visit. Plus, it's not like that sort of thing is going to deter me from coming back for another Berry Good smoothie...and to try their acai bowl!
