| - I bought a week's worth of juice from Revitasize, Yorkville (picked up on different days) and each juice I had was really delicious (tried almost all of them) - my personal favourites being the yellow ones... and the active charcoal lemonade. The bottles are also larger than most of their competitors.
At first, the price seemed quite steep at approximately $13/bottle, but after purchasing my own Omega Juicer (which, for starters, doesn't even compare to their highly sophisticated Cold Press machines despite being one of the bests on the mainstream market) and making my own juices, the cost makes a lot more sense - A LOT of produce can fit into those bottles... Like bowls and bowls and bowls of salad plus organic produce is already quite pricey in general, then factor in the cost of your machine (over $300), cost of electricity and TIME - time you spend buying the ingredients, washing them, cutting them, juicing, then washing all the pieces of your juicer... I don't know about you, but I'd rather spend $13 on a solid bottle of clean, healthy nourishment and use that hour to make 2, 3 perhaps even 4x more money actually working...
As for service, the gentleman at the counter (he may have been the owner) was friendly, patient, and very thorough with the instructions. He was more than willing to answer some of my questions about juicing in general. He also carefully selected each juice in my plan to make sure I had enough variety.
The store was very clean, spacious and organized (as you can clearly see in the pictures). The seating is limited but then again, it's not a cafe and it would probably do us some good to get off our butts for a few minutes a day...
A note of personal preference: I also tried the cashew nut milk. Nope. Not going to try that again. Not my cup of tea.
