Joe and the Juice in Brentwood is the place to go if you want a healthy, unique, delicious smoothie with fresh ingredients. I first tried them in New York years ago, and I was excited when they made it to the West Side in Los Angeles.
My favorite category are the vegan shakes because they have avocado, my favorite smoothie ingredient. It’s a great option if you’re lactose intolerant like me but still want a filling & creamy smoothie, and you know I love that they have agave straws (better for both the environment and your drinking experiences than paper or plastic).
The Blue Magic ($12) tastes like healthy fruit loop cereal, the natural color from the blue spirulina is pretty amazing, and the hint of citrus is refreshing. The Blue Magic (rightly named) has Blue spirulina, Hemp seeds, Avocado, Protein, Dates, Lemon, & Oat-coconut milk. Next time I’ll try the Green Gains so I can try the differences in the spirulinas.
The staff is super cool, and Owen and Larissa are both nice and great at their jobs, even when rude customers come in. They have an app where you can order ahead, and they have free parking in their lot behind the store, where they have spacious indoor and outdoor seating.
