JOE & THE JUICE 669 Stanford Shopping Center, Palo Alto, CA 94304

"The atmosphere is pretty. Workers are detached but professional. Expect to pay a lot for good food but not amazing food. I would have given the star a higher rating if the food and people had gave a better impression of personality and taste."

"I recently visited Joe & The Juice, expecting a delightful culinary experience, but was left utterly disappointed. Not only did the food fall short of expectations, but the high price tag made it even more disheartening. The sandwich I ordered, priced steeply at $12, was a major letdown. The bread was burnt and had the texture of a hard cracker, completely ruining what should have been a pleasant meal. The avocado, typically a highlight in any sandwich, was bland and unenjoyable. Furthermore, the pesto, which I had been looking forward to, was barely noticeable, adding to the overall lackluster taste. To add insult to injury, this overpriced sandwich failed to deliver on any front. It's hard to justify spending $12 on a sandwich that lacks both quality and flavor. It felt more like paying for an expensive disappointment rather than a gourmet experience. Overall, my visit to Joe & The Juice was not only underwhelming but also felt like a rip-off. The combination of poor quality food and exorbitant pricing makes it a place I would not recommend and am unlikely to revisit."

"I ordered an açaí bowl. They are not cheap so iexpect that the fruits would be fresh. How hard can it be to add fresh banana. Instead I had overripe bananas in my bowl. The quantity is not much either. Very disappointed."

"The blueberry muffin and coffee were okay. Nice looking coffee and juice shop. Large windows, open feel with lots of space. They used Counter Culture beans. The milk for the latte was, in my opinion, a bit too hot. I was also a bit surprised to see that the steam wand was not wiped down in between uses and had a buildup of burnt milk. I have not tried any of their juice creations. Could be better rated with a little work."
