Blenders In The Grass - Isla Vista

I wish the smoothies were more affordable, but overall, this is a fantastic restaurant.

For my friends with nut allergies: the restaurant was happy to accommodate my request for a freshly washed blender for my smoothie! I truly appreciated their understanding.

I enjoyed Blenders more than Jamba Juice! I absolutely loved their red orange smoothie with the immune supplement. The tropical and pitaya Acai bowls were also amazing! Personally, I prefer thick smoothies over runny ones and Blenders nailed the texture perfectly. I highly recommend this place, 10/10! (PS. My friend enjoyed the red mango smoothie!)

To be honest, I don't often give 5-star reviews. However, I have to say, I was really impressed this time. I brought my niece back to UC Santa Barbara and we were looking for a late night snack. We stumbled upon Blenders and there was no line. The young woman who made our drinks was fantastic! She was quick and the drink she made was the best Blenders I've ever had. In the past, I've found drinks at other locations to be watery or not filled to the top, but these drinks were perfectly thick, blended, and delicious. These girls deserve a raise! I didn't catch their names, but I visited right before closing time.

Stay away from this place! Overall, Blenders is great and their smoothies are delicious. However, this specific location is terrible. The drinks here taste like unripe fruit and just aren't good. If you're in the area and craving a smoothie, I suggest going to the Camino Real location instead.
