Ju-Tox has some really good features: the lady manning the ropes was so lovely, efficient, and accommodating, with excellent recommendations for substitutes (as we will discuss soon). The food is incredibly fresh, including the fruit which is prepped and chopped to order. Pricing is reasonable for a juice/smoothie/bowl bar.
There are definitely some growing pains as well, namely the online ordering system. I placed my order through Toast (the recommended service on the Ju-Tox website) for a Ju-Dragon Bowl (dragon fruit, pineapple, banana, blueberries, and granola), and my colleague ordered a Ju-Berry Bowl (acai base topped with fruit, seeds, and granola). Upon our arrival, however, not only had they not received our online order, they were out of all frozen fruit for bowl bases. The lady explained they had been having trouble with the online ordering system connecting with inventory, however her manager was out of town and difficult to reach, so they hadn't yet been able to correct the problem. She offered to either refund our orders, or recommend alternative options that were in stock - we opted for her recommendations which were quite delicious (I had a bowl of fresh fruit topped with granola, walnuts, coconut flakes, flax seeds, and almond butter, and my friend had a build-your-own parfait and avocado toast). The fruit bowl was good, but left me feeling a little sad, as I had my heart set on a smoothie bowl. The avocado toast was unique - in addition to avocado there were strawberries and feta cheese - however the toast was more warmed than toasted, and the amount of toppings was slightly skimpy.
Overall, the idea is excellent, however the execution is still findings its sea legs.
