"I've become a big Nektar fan - and so far I think Nektar is seriously the best of the healthy juice bars in Phoenix right now.\n\nMy path to Nektar juice bliss was a bit of a roundabout.\n\nI started as a fan of another fairly new juice operation in the area - Grabbagreen. I got addicted to the fresh juices at Grabba and visited then 3-5 times weekly for many months now.\n\nBut then Grabbagreen started to strike me as Grabba-Greedy (you can read my review there as well).\n\nNekter is the new juice & Acai bowl star in town, and they deserve your business.\n\n#1 is the quality of the juices and prices here are superb. MUCH lower prices for fresh juices than GrabbaGreen or Whole Foods (and a little more than Sprouts, which now has a $3.99 juice operation at some locations).\n\nThey have a great menu of fresh juices and smoothie drinks as well. My favorite is the \"Date Nut\" consisting of a yummy blend of cashew nut milk, dates, banana, nutmeg and blended with ice. The nutmeg add a really interesting flavor note, and the cashew milk is a creamy dream!\n\nAs others have said, the place is nice and clean inside - spotless and modern.\n\nYes the service can be a tad slow at busier times, but since everything is made fresh to order I don't mind waiting 10 min for some drinkable deliciousness. \n\nMy oldest daughter introduced me to the Acai Bowls here and they are AMAZING. So far I've tried the A\u00E7a\u00ED Banana Berry - with A\u00E7a\u00ED, banana, cashew nut milk, berries and hempseed granola and topped with bananas and berries. This is really like a meal or dessert in itself.\n\nThe juices here are fresh and consistent.\n\nI would highly recommend Nekter for anyone looking to get a healthy treat - I love this place."^^ .
