Their Divine Start: Kale, Spinach, Celery, Coconut H2O, Coconut Meat, Apple, Chia Seeds, Flax Seeds, Dates, Agave & Spirulina. This is one of «The Best» Juices i’ve ever had, give her a try whenever you visit! You won’t be disappointed!
Great, Wonderful, Helpful & Knowledgeable Staff!

My fav juice bar for cleansing and acai bowl. I’m glad you guys opened the store in MDR because I used to go drive all the way to Brentwood. The only thing I have to say is, the staff in Brentwood is nicer and knows better about the juices, the staff in MDR needs a customer training to be as good.

Juice Crafter’s protein acai bowl is delicious.
The juice here is so fresh & flavorful. Haven’t had a bad experience here in the 3 or 4 times I’ve been. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and accommodating if you want to substitute anything or make changes to your order.

Best acai bowls in marina hands down. Only wish they had HONEY :) but it’s fine I literally brought my own. Agave just won’t cut it for me but still best acai bowl in the 90 292 thanks jc!

Depend on which way you are traveling this location maybe hard to get to. They don’t have too many acai bowl options and I find the amount they give you for the price smaller than many other places nearby. I would not recommend this place for acai — don’t know if their juices are better

I had my first acai bowl here and it was freaking amazing! I got the original and added almond butter to it for some additional protein. I tried to make it at home myself using a frozen acai purée pack but it didn’t taste the same. Dreaming about it…

Just found another great acai and cold pressed juice spot. Best of all, they’re open Sundays and theres a Starbucks next door. One stop
shop!

I first became a fan of Juice Crafters when I tried their Brazillian Acai bowl at the Newport Beach location. Since then, I’ve been hooked. Prior to them opening in MdR, I Unilocaled various neighborhood locations to find a true contender in taste and value. I never found one.
So naturally, when Juice Crafters opened in MdR, I was thrilled. The only drawback is the location is so tiny and doesn’t make great for a hang out/​lunch spot. They don’t even have their own seating area. Lame. However, parking is free and easy.
Acai lovers will be thrilled to know that Juice Crafters is not stingy on acai. Their bowls make for the perfect refreshing snack, served with almond slices, granola, bananas and strawberries… ohh it’s amazing. You actually feel like you’re getting your money’s worth, because the bowls are pretty big compared to others in the area. The Brazillian Acai is only $ 9.99, I highly recommend it. Plus, they’re very photogenic (I’m telling all you Instagrammers) and come with cute I heart LA stickers.

There is nothing worse than a smoothie that is mostly banana or juices that are mostly orange juice, which is what I find with most smoothie and juice places. You’ll find some creative concoctions here, and thankfully they typically have samples available. I usually end up getting the Pacific Love which is a nice blend of nutrition and taste. The quality is superb, the drinks are creative, the staff have good recommendations, and they take phone orders (I recommend always calling ahead). They also have terrific acai bowls that are surprisingly filling for breakfast.
Only factors keeping this place from a perfect score is the price and speed of service. I understand the premium people are expected to pay for premium ingredients, but I could honestly make the same thing at home with comparable ingredients for half of the price. Even if you added a 25% margin to the price of supplies, you don’t get to the prices they charge. And, they’re slow. If I don’t call ahead I usually have time to order, go to Starbucks next door for an Americano, and return before they have my drink ready.
It’s certainly a step above the other chain smoothie and juice places, but the prices keep me from being a daily visitor.

This place is okay. Not everything here is organic so it defeats the whole purpose for me. $ 7 for nonorganic juice is too expensive. I would just go here if i was really desperate since it’s so convenient for me, but if time permits, I’d rather walk over to Equinox to get their organic juices.

Love this place! Best Acai bowls!!! I love all the juices and most of the smoothies. Once you get hooked it becomes a very expensive habit. My favorite smoothie is pacific love. It’s really filling and sooo good! All of the green juices are really good too.

No prices on anything in the store and for good reason. They hide the fact that they’re large smoothie (20 oz) costs $ 8.65. I won’t be making that mistake again.

Certainly not in love, but OK. The service was quick and the samples were yummy, but the smoothie that they made me was more of a slushy. It tasted kind of like strawberry flavored ice.
I would suggest sticking with their juices in the fridge by the door. They had some cool «flavors.»

I had high hopes for a new Acai Bowl place here in the Marina. I’d become a bit of an Acai addict since having my first last year, and I’ve tried bowls from Santa Barbara to Hawaii.
I had the Acai Protein Bowl from Juice Crafters, and it was a huge disappointment. Let’s start with the texture. An Acai Bowl should have a consistency that’s thicker than a smoothie, and more like a soft-​serve ice cream. The bowl I had was thinner than a smoothie, more like Acai soup. As for the ingredients, it’s hard to look past the giant «glop» of almond butter. The pieces of almonds and walnuts are also way too big, and should be diced. In some bites the nuts were so large, I was afraid that I was biting down on a shell. The banana slices were all over the place. Some were thin & edible, others were a huge mouthful.
As for pricing, there isn’t any! Only after you place an order do you discover that your Acai Bowl is over $ 13! And here I thought the $ 10 Acai Bowls at Earthbar in Equinox were over-​priced. Now they look like a bargain, and the quality is so much better. Even the Acai Bowls at Jamba Juice are better in my opinion, and a much better value for the price.

I went here everyday for four days because I was trying to kick a cold. I LOVED their juices and shots. My only qualm is that every time I came in, they never had the juice I was looking for. Actually every time I went they ran out of something. Hope they stock their cold pressed juices more. My friend went in at 745 AM one morning and they still ran out (not sure how that’s possible being so early). Other than that, customer service is great, and the juice are tasty and healthy!

I stayed right across the street from Juice Crafters this past weekend while on a mini-​vacay in LA, and stopped in twice for smoothies.
My first experience was a bit slow, and I think that they were understaffed — there was just one girl working, and she was on the phone with a coworker saying «Are you here yet?» So, all things considered, she did a great job managing to take orders and make smoothies, and there was a line of several customers at the time my friends and I stopped in. I don’t remember the exact name of my smoothie, but it was something like the «Acai Power Boost.» I give the smoothie 4 stars!
I also stopped in yesterday for a quick smoothie on our way back up to San Francisco, and ordered the «Summerland» under meal replacement shakes. This one was tasty as well, but I was a little disappointed that, at a place like Juice Crafters that advertises their «fresh ingredients,» that they were just using cartons of Silk Almond milk in the smoothies. Not a huge deal, but I (maybe wrongly) assumed that they would use house-​made almond milk. Service was a bit quicker this time.
I’d stop by if in the area, and they did have some tasty looking grab-​and-​go lunch options as well.

I love this place! Great juices and smoothies! If this is your first time here, they have plenty of samples for you to try in the front. Everyone here is friendly and they make everything to order. It’s also reasonably priced too. Don’t forget to get a stamp card here too for your smoothie orders.
TIP: If you are an Equinox member you get 10% off!
I can’t wait to try their acai bowl! Not only does it look beautiful but it’s super healthy too!

I live down the street and just noticed this place while driving by the other day. I finally had the chance to come by and check it out yesterday and I’m so glad I did! The cashier recommended the Chunky Monkey smoothie so I grabbed those for my roommate and I. It was so good! I also saw a watermelon & mint juice while I was there and the people behind me ordered acai bowls. I will definitely be going back to try out those two things too.
They’re in a small plaza with a small lot in front which was kind of busy since it was a Sunday morning and they’re next to a Starbucks, but it looked like there was underground parking as well. Also, if it’s your first time, the cashier was giving everyone 10% off. You also get another 10% off if you’re an Equinox member (stacks with the first 10% for 20% off!).

Their acai bowels are delicious! They also have really yummy quinoa tubule. I go to the one in the palisades all the time, because it’s near my work. I’m happy there’s one near my house now :))

My boss loved the #2 Greener Juice, fresh squeezed. And the juicer was so nice, he let me try a lemon, ginger, Cayanne pepper shot. WHOOO hot! But great natural energy for work and they also handed me a slice of watermelon to ease the pain from the spicy shot! Great new little spot!
