Paradise Juice & Deli

Sandwich is not at all filling. Portions is not generous, you’re better off making a sandwich at home. The shake ordered was overpriced and heavily diluted to the point it felt more like flavored water. Always try to support small mom and pop shops, but not when you can get better bang for your buck on either side of the restaurant.

I should have read the reviews. Kind staff, but over priced and under deliver. Salad was skimpy to say the least, with small ration of lettuce, carrot shavings, and a hint of white cheese for $ 8.50. I guess olives may have broke the bank. So I regret that I even noticed this barely visible store front, rather than patronize the countless nearby healthy salad offerings… in fact as I walked out with my child’s portion salad I passed diners at nearby restaurant who were enjoying adult sized meals with a variety of ingredients in a pleasing heap of yumminess. Yes, I had salad envy! Well I ate my Paradise, depression era salad, and then couldn’t wait to get home to eat again… I was famished.

Whoa BLAND! And I don’t know how my small pita sandwich and small juice ended up being $ 15 but I’m disappointed.

Tuna sandwich was tasty. No argument there.
I ordered a ‘Green Goddess’ as well. I was asked if I wanted it in smoothie or juice. I asked ‘what’s the difference?’ I was told the juice had more nutrients. Ok, I ordered the juice.
When it arrived it obviously had orange juice in it (which the Green Goddess does not have). I thought it was strange but didn’t complain.
When I went to pay, the cc machine was broken. Then she rang up $ 16. $ 16 for two $ 6 items? That didn’t make any sense. I asked about it. She said, juice is more expensive, everyone knows that.
What I wasn’t told us that you cannot get ‘Green Goddess’ in juice form so she just gave me something completely different. That’s why it tasted like orange juice.
That’s annoying enough but when I asked her why she changed my order completely she just kept saying ‘everyone knows…’ Like I was an idiot.
None of the menu indicates any of this. Again, the tuna sandwich was small but tasty. The juice wasn’t good, maybe because it wasn’t what I ordered. The service was bad.

Went here for lunch today. Terrible experience.
Ordered a decent amount of food, and handed them a credit card. They said, despite the decent amount I ordered, the minimum for cards was higher. I did not have cash, so it was either pay a fee, or order something additional. The woman said if I ordered a smoothie, it would be okay. I had no cash, so I ordered a medium sized smoothie in addition to my food.
I see the turkey sandwich I ordered and laughed. It was literally bread, turkey, lettuce and mayo. I could have made a better, and FAR CHEAPER, sandwich at home. Nothing special. The strawberry-​banana smoothie I ordered was extremely small and tasted like milk and water, with a hint of banana. Wasted $ 12 dollars on just these items.
In short, I would be more than happy to see a place like this go out of business. Spend your money elsewhere.

I stumbled across this place while trying to find a healthy spot in Burbank. The place down the street was grossly overpriced and uncomfortably hippie. At Paradise, I’ve had both smoothies and sandwiches, and they are delicious. It tastes fresh. People are complaining about price, but I’m happy to pay more (even with a $.75 credit card charge) for better quality food and personal service.

One star for greeting me and the other because the food tasted ok. First, I asked for the lunch special ands got a soggy turkey sandwich on cheap bread and a bunch of lettuce. She didn’t bother to ask what flavor smoothie I wanted. Just made me one. When I asked her to please change the flavor she simply said «next time»! Nope. No next time. The price does not match the quality of the food.

My two sons and I went in here three mornings in a row for protein packed date shakes and nutritious fresh juice. The prices are reasonable and the woman owning it is so kind and friendly. We had no problem with parking. There was room out front. What we liked was that the owner was not at all pretentious, just down-​to-​earth. There is another juice shop up a block and they charge twice the price for flashy ambiance. Don’t bother, this was better and more reasonable.

The staff is always so sweet and helpful! I seem to have found my favorite drink, which is the Mitchell Kale Ale it consists of kale, almond milk, dates, and bananas.
Tip: bring cash! There’s an small charge on using cards.
Con: only one… is parking. But still worth the try! My favorite juice place, by far in Burbank.

The juice is watery — no flavor. I ordered a beet, carrot, kale, spinach juice and it tastes like she took some old juice and watered it down. Never going back there. $ 9 for watery muck when Robek’s is right down the road. Wanted to support the small business, too, but she is ripping people off. Hope it closes.

I work within walking distance and this is a regular visit. Her homemade soup, dessert & wraps are delicious. Portions aren’t huge. Great mix and match (or choose the lunch special) menu.
Peanut butter date smoothie is to die for as is the homemade lentil soup. Small town feel with wonderful fresh made to order smoothies & juices. Owner always has a few kind words and a smile to share!

This review is looong overdue! I love paradise juice and deli!!! I’ve been coming here for years and I’m addicted! The juice menu is beyond awesome, so much to choose from (and I’ve probably tried em all) and their all delicious and super healthy! weather I want a sandwich or I had a wild weekend and need a juice to detox, I’m always 100% satisfied.
The owner Marian is the sweetest lady on earth! As much as I love her sandwiches and juices, I lover her!

I started juicing 6 months ago when I found out I had breast cancer. I have studied a lot about juicing and have learned that once the vegetables or fruits are juiced from a regular juicer, you only have 10 minutes to drink it before all the vitamins and nutrients are depleted in the juice. That is because it is heated in the juicing process from the friction in the juicer. When juice is pressed rather than juiced there is no heat involved so the juice lasts longer, up to 3 days. So the fact that this lady is pouring juice from a pitcher that has been juiced in a regular juicer should automatically tell you it is not fresh. Why pay $ 6-​$ 8 for juice that you are getting no benefit from whatsoever? Do yourself a favor and don’t even bother. A waste of my $ 7 today. I won’t go back.

Unfortunately, it’s not fresh. Went there a week ago. I have been going here on and off and in the past the juice was freshly made. I prefer to support small business owners, instead of large chain companies. It’s really too bad, it’s Way over priced and now not even fresh. wth!!! She is driving business away.

I came here today, Saturday, at 2:20 pm for a juice, and they were closed. The closed sign and Unilocal both say the hours on Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm. Now I have to drive to the Glendale Whole Foods for the next closest juice bar.

Sorry but WTF is this woman thinking!
I’ve had juices from so many different places and I am all about supporting small business but this lady is crazy. Walked in here looking at a variety of options and thinking this place will be amazing… Once I realize that my green juice wasn’t freshly made but pored out of a pre made jar… I got a little hesitant and then she proceeded to charge 9.75!!! No joke the most I’ve ever paid for a pre made juice! Never again. Get a grip lady!

On the prowl for a quick bite or liquid and needing to avoid the line at a nearby local lunch spot, I popped in to Paradise to find juices, smoothies, and sandwiches. The smell of freshly-​baked banana bread filled the air, which was intoxicating and made it difficult to only order a juice, but I was on the go and a juice seemed easier to ingest than any other handheld lunch item. The juices were priced below the average I’ve been spending on juices lately, so that was a nice surprise. The $.75 convenience charge to use a card, on the other hand, not so much.
Upon paying, I decided to go with a piece of the bread. It looked a little on the burnt side, but was truly a loaf sent from the baking Gods. It was the best part of whole experience. I shared it with a few friends less than 10 minutes later and they agreed it was phenomenal as well. The juice wasn’t anything special, no defining qualities or flavors, even after adding ginger for $.50.
The lady working was super speedy about making the juice, and remaking it after I accidentally spilled the first cup out the door! And, clearly she’s a winner in the banana bread making department, too!

Accommodating, friendly service. Fresh juice made to order. I’ve only tried the juice though but a positive first experience.

Incredible! Marian is the most amazing person you’ll ever meet. Our studio frequently visits her because she has the best tasting and healthiest juice in LA! You will not only fall in love with Paradise Juice, you’ll fall in love with the amazing staff! 5 Stars! *****

I’m sorry, but wow. $ 7 for possibly the saddest and grossest veggie sandwich I’ve ever seen, a giant bowl with about 3 spoonfuls of their «special» lentil soup that had absolutely no flavor, and a slice of carrot cake (the only redeemable part of the meal). I almost cried from how ripped off I felt. I mean, yes, I’m sure the owners/​workers are nice people, but anyone can make a better sandwich than that. And I was with several other people, no one liked their order.
They should seriously consider just sticking with smoothies.
