"Part wholesale fruit store, part smoothie and juice shop, Vietnamese spot Linda’s Tropical Fruits is a Chinatown staple. Bumping rap music plays over tables of cheap harder-to-find fruit—we’re looking at you, mangosteen—and a fleet of multi-colored drink tumblers. Linda’s also has a long menu of smoothies and juice with fresh-pressed sugarcane mixed with lychee, mango, dragonfruit, and durian. Hit up Linda’s between first dinner in Dun Huang Plaza, and second dinner near Hong Kong Mall." - Chelsea Thomas

Came here specifically for the custard apples to take home to my grandmother in another state. They were $12.99 a pound which is good compared to where we live. The fruit stayed fresh on a 2 day trip and was delicious and great quality. Would stop in here again next time we're in Houston for the fresh cut fruit and sugar cane drinks. They looked so good.

I recently visited Linda's Tropical Fruits, a local fruit market, and was thoroughly impressed by their amazing selection of fresh produce and, most notably, their Sugar Cane drinks. The freshness of the fruits at this market is immediately noticeable, but the highlight for me was the freshly pressed sugar cane juice. Served chilled, the drink was refreshingly sweet without being overpowering, and had a subtle, natural sweetness that was incredibly satisfying. You can tell it's made from the freshest sugar cane, with no artificial flavors or additives. The texture was smooth, and it had a slight earthy undertone, making it a perfect thirst-quencher on a hot day. There are combination of flavors that can be added to the drinks like coconut , pineapple, and orange. The staff was incredibly friendly and offered helpful suggestions. Overall, Linda's is not just your average fruit market; it’s a destination for anyone looking for a refreshing, natural drinks. I highly recommend stopping by to grab one of their sugar cane drinks, especially if you're a fan of pure, authentic flavors.

🌟 An Exotic Fruit Paradise: My Amazing Experience at Linda's Tropical Fruits! 🌟 My journey to discovering Linda's Tropical Fruits began with a Facebook short that instantly caught my eye. 🍍🍓 It looked so good, and as someone who knows the struggle of finding truly delicious fruits (especially after some hit-or-miss experiences at HEB lately), I was intrigued. I decided to give it a try, and WOW—what a game-changer! 🙌 The first time we visited, we grabbed some mangoes and a dragon fruit. 🍑🍉 Let me just say, the flavor was out of this world! It instantly brought me back to a time when I had the best mango of my life—on a roadside in Florida, straight from a local farmer’s stand. The taste was so fresh and sweet, I couldn't believe I found something so good again. 😍 Now, I have to be honest—the fruit is expensive (we’re talking about triple the price of a standard HEB mango), but the quality is undeniable. The taste alone makes it worth every penny. 💸🍊 In fact, I’ve made it a part of my weekly routine to visit Linda’s and stock up on fresh, mouth-watering fruits for the week. 🌿🍒 But wait, there’s more! They also have a smoothie and fruit drink bar that’s just as incredible. 🥤 Today, I grabbed a smoothie based on the cashier’s recommendation (they were out of the Mango Crème Smoothie I initially wanted), and it did not disappoint! Smooth, fruity, and absolutely refreshing—chef’s kiss 💕👌. Yes, the price tag is high, but if you're looking for extraordinary fruits that are both delicious and exotic (some look like they’re from another planet! 🪐), then I highly recommend making a trip to Linda’s Tropical Fruits. 🌴🍍 You won’t regret it! 10/10 for taste, quality, and uniqueness!🌟

Watch what you buy! The variety of fruits you get is good, however, check the quality before you buy. Got this sugar apples at $25 per lb (at $87) and within 12 hours, almost 30% is rotten! Expect the management to do quality checks before selling the fruit.

Amazing selection of tropical fruits and the quality is too good. The bowls and smoothies are really nice. The fruits are always fresh and get good varieties of fruits.

They have a nice variety but not all the fruit is fresh so beware! Prices are also quite high for what you get. Overall we thought this would be an okay place to come to occasionally but what truly put us off was the fresh fruit and juice bar. The fresh fruit tasted rancid (the fruit shake) and the sugar cane juice, while tasty, was a scam. We paid $2 extra for the 20oz cup with no ice but we were served half the cup. upon measurement that came to just about 12oz. Very disappointed and will not be coming here again. There are plenty of places in Houston that offer the same items for a much better price and quality.

Update: Just saw Linda's shop extended and the store is much easier to shop and I can't resist of trying new fruits. So awesome. I have never seen so many fresh fruits from the tropics. Smell so good as I walked in. I know immediately to order the fresh fruit smoothies. Price is ok for what it is. I have been following Linda's Tropical Fruits on Facebook. I was just excited to finally trying the fruits that I have been looking at.

I ordered the Che bowls one with purple yam and one with pandan. I asked her if one of the bowls had Pandan and the viet lady who made my order today told me she doesn’t know she just makes what’s ordered.

I ordered a large longan pandan drink. It's spot on. And it's pretty cheap (~$7). Note that it's about half ice but at least it keeps the drink cold. The drink is refreshing and good value. I'm all about good deals. The establishment smells like jack fruit + durian which can be good or bad depending on your preferences. Service was fine. Drink came out quick on a Saturday early evening.

I recently visited a local tropical fruit shop that offers an impressive array of fresh fruits, including durian and other exotic selections from Asia. One thing that stood out was the exceptional quality of the produce--the fruits are undeniably fresh and flavorful, which is quite a treat for anyone craving authentic tropical flavors. Their menu also features bubba tea and sugarcane juice, both of which were delicious and refreshing, though a bit on the pricier side. Unfortunately, the experience was soured by the behavior of one of the male receptionists, who appeared to be the husband of the owner. His attitude was surprisingly impolite and condescending, which is a shame, especially considering the shop's humble beginnings. According to locals, the owners used to sell fruit out of their apartment garage parking lot, and while their success is commendable, it seems that the rise in fortune has coincided with a change in attitude--something that's hard to overlook. In summary, if you're after top-quality tropical fruits and unique beverages, this shop delivers. However, be prepared for a potentially less-than-welcoming reception, which, sadly, dampens the overall experience. Thiên Đường Trái Cây Nhiệt Đới: Chất Lượng Tốt, Dịch Vụ Đáng Tiếc Tôi vừa ghé thăm một cửa hàng trái cây nhiệt đới tại địa phương, nơi bày bán nhiều loại trái cây tươi ngon, bao gồm sầu riêng và các loại trái cây độc đáo từ châu Á. Điều ấn tượng nhất là chất lượng trái cây vô cùng tươi ngon, rất thích hợp cho những ai muốn tìm kiếm hương vị nhiệt đới đúng điệu. Ngoài ra, cửa hàng còn phục vụ trà sữa và nước mía, cả hai đều rất ngon và mát lạnh, dù giá cả hơi cao một chút. Tuy nhiên, điều khiến trải nghiệm của tôi không trọn vẹn là cách cư xử của một nam nhân viên lễ tân, người có vẻ là chồng của chủ cửa hàng. Anh ta tỏ ra rất kiêu căng và thiếu lịch sự, một điều đáng tiếc, nhất là khi biết rằng cửa hàng này từng bắt đầu từ việc bán trái cây trong bãi đậu xe của một căn hộ. Dù sự thành công của họ là điều đáng khâm phục, nhưng có vẻ như sự thay đổi về thái độ lại đi kèm với sự thay đổi về vận may--một điều khó có thể bỏ qua. Tóm lại, nếu bạn đang tìm kiếm những loại trái cây nhiệt đới tươi ngon và các loại thức uống độc đáo, cửa hàng này sẽ không làm bạn thất vọng. Tuy nhiên, hãy chuẩn bị tinh thần cho dịch vụ tiếp đón có thể không được niềm nở như mong đợi, điều này thật sự làm giảm đi phần nào trải nghiệm tổng thể.

I always stop by Linda's Tropical Fruit for a refreshing sugarcane drink when I'm in the area. This time, I happened to visit during the owner's 40th birthday, and there was a promotion for customers. The place was packed, and most of the desserts and freezer items were already sold out. We ordered the usual sugarcane drink and an exotic-sounding dessert called "chè dừa sáp"--a coconut fruit mix with waxy coconut meat. The texture was a bit jelly-like and greasy, but we enjoyed it for being unique, refreshing, and not overly sweet. I think it would taste even better with some condensed milk added. If you're looking to try something different, definitely check this place out!

Stopped by Linda's Tropical Fruits on Sunday Sept. 15 for Linda's 40th birthday deals, and I was pleasantly surprised. The sugar cane juice was a highlight--fresh, refreshing, and naturally sweet without any added sugar. Perfect for a hot day! The fruit selection was a mix. Some of the fruits looked a bit past their prime, but there were plenty of exotic and super fresh options you can't find at most stores. If you're into unique tropical fruits, this place is definitely worth checking out. That said, the store didn't feel as clean as I'd like, mostly due to some near-spoiled produce. I do wish I'd arrived earlier, though! I missed out on trying their che and grabbing one of the promo tumbler cups. If you want the best picks, get there early to beat the crowds. Overall, a solid spot for fresh juice and rare fruit finds.

I kept seeing Linda's Tropical Fruits on FB and apparently so did my dad cause he kept sending me photos of this place (he lives in another city)! If you know older Asian parents.. they love love love their tropical fruits, maybe cause it reminds them a bit of home. But I was fortunate enough to grow up in one of those households where we would travel and I would get to try all the tropical Asian fruits! I'm glad for the exposure cause now I crave them when I see them available! Thats's where Linda's comes in! I was a little disappointed with the selection of actual fruit on that side of the store.. there weren't very many things to choose from and those items they had didn't look the freshest. I purchased some mangosteens anyways.. they were half good and half just overly ripe. I got a cherimoya that ended up needing to be eaten immediately but was super sweet! The rambutans were fresh that day, super bright in color! They were all sweet and great quality! I saw the older lady peeling fresh jackfruit so I had to buy some once they landed on the counter! Sweet and fresh.. though a little under ripe and not as juicy as I would like. I also bought a few persimmons! I understand it all has to do with seasons so I'm willing to see what else Linda's has in store next time I come in.. but I grabbed some frozen durian in a box. No real selection of the famous musang king! I'm hoping to spot some fresh ones next time or a variety of different durians when the season hits. There is an extensive menus of desserts, smoothies, green drinks, etc. I ordered the king!! Cause I love durian. It was large.. a bit on the sweet side.. but thick and creamy. The green drinks were fresh and delicious as well. They have refrigerated section of selected miscellaneous items on both sides.. I bought so Covang tofu dessert here as well! I can't say the service is quick.. there seems to always be a line for drinks so waited about 10-15 mins for mine. Overall, everything seemed a bit pricy for the amount and quality of fruit I got; everything definitely wasn't at its peak but edible and I enjoyed it nonetheless. Will be back hopefully to a better selection of fresh items next visit!

I loveeee stopping by Linda's whenever I'm in the area. I love seeing all of the tropical fruits that I can't find at the typical grocery store in my neighborhood. It's always soooo packed but staff is always friendly, service is always quick! My favorite thing to get here is their sugarcane. I'm a fan of their sugarcane with coconut, sugarcane with kumquat, and Linda's cane! So refreshing on a hot day.

Bryan V.

Yelp
I came here for Linda's 40th birthday celebration and got a $4 sugarcane drink! It was a good quantity and had a nice balance between sugarcane and kumquat flavor. A much needed drink during this heat. It was fascinating to see all the Southeast Asian fruits that they sold. It felt like I was back in Vietnam! I got to meet the owner Linda herself and she was super sweet and gave out free candies which I enjoyed. I will definitely be coming back to try their other dessert drinks!

I've always noticed this spot during my weekend dim sum binges, I've stepped foot in there to explore before but never thought of grabbing a smoothie. One weekend, a co worker friend sends a picture of her smoothie and raves about it. After one of our meetings, we swing by because it was close in proximity and it had been on her mind since she tried it. Mango Crème, please. We wait, the buzzing of the blenders, the tapping of the blender cup from the lady ensuring we get all the goodness of her concoction. Mangos were cut up and a dome top encloses the drink. I hurriedly snap a pic, because of course, phone eats/drinks first and a quickly stick a straw in. Holy f--- what is this?! This mango smoothie changed my life. I'm know a believer of this place. And I will religiously go, every chance I get. We are trying to convert as many people as we can. So if you're near, step in. Grab a smoothie.

It's small and, at the time, mostly a hole in the wall, but I stuck with it because my mentor and his wife raved about the quality of the fruits. They are permaculturists, and all about organic. They're now in their early 80s, and their health is so good, they're medication free. I'm glad I stuck with it. I had to get past my expectations and prejudices of how my produce is presented. My two produce items, jujube and rambutan, were as satisfying as my mentor and wife described. I have to emphasize to you, they swooned and swooned the good stuff is here. The flavor is here. If you grow edible things, you know the disappointment of things that look right but taste is faint, wrong, or non-existent. Flavor is correlated with nutrition content. I loved my jujube and rambutan; Nature being decadent. Two of my closest friends went with me. Only my friend from Hawaii braved a purchase too. She loves rambutan too. The price isn't cheap, but neither is the flavor or texture. Additionally, I always wanted to try sugar cane. I saw their juice bar was BUSY. Plus, the cleanliness of the juice and weigh area lended some comfort of modern convention. They were not hole-in-the-wall-ish. So, I wedged in. It was good! Not too sweet. I've been wanting another one. I should probably do that after writing this review.

Yelp
Overall, I thought it was okay. Fruit prices are a tad higher than others for the season. Pink guava was good but again, quite expensive. Drinks were okay. I got rau ma (pennywort) with coconut juice and a mango creme. Mango creme didn't have a strong mango flavor but glad it came with mango pieces. I came here specifically for a box of mangoes but they ran out on the day I visit. Pennywort with coconut was just okay. $6 per regular size drinks are not bad and if you're on this side of Houston Chinatown then by all means, it's convenient and not crazy expensive. I saw a worker eating the fruits - which I don't mind at all, however, I would have liked her to take off her working gloves.

They make the best açaí bowl in town. Their mango crème drink is good too if you're in the mood for something rich. This time I got Linda's special bowl with açaí base, layered with mango puree, pitaya (red dragonfruit), butterfly pea chia, fresh strawberries blueberries & banana slices, topped with hemp seeds, cacao nibs, pistachio dust, (sunflower seeds I asked to remove), honey, and a date(!) Primo ingredients, super fresh, all for $10.81 incl tax. Can't beat it. Just wish it were closer to where I live T_T

HUUUGEEE selection of tropical fruits. Many viets buy their specialty produce here so I was glad I came by this place! The prices are pretty good for how hard it is to get quality fruits. They also have an extensive drink and dessert/snack menu.

Love this place!! I went during their first year anniversary and got the sugarcane kumquat drink, it was delicious! Linda herself was there handing out candy and greeting my friend and I. Super nice and sweet, would love to come again!!

Linda's a hidden gem!!! I've heard of this store from my mom who goes here every now and then to buy fruits but I didn't know they also sell a variety of drinks including sugarcane! For $8, you can get a huge cup (32 oz) of sugarcane juice, which is such a steal here in Houston, and there's a few flavor options to choose from. I'll definitely be back to try other drinks here!! The perfect cure for this Houston heat!

Andy D.

Yelp
Just about any tropical fruit you're craving that's hard to find. Decent varieties when most fruits are in season such as a couple varieties of sapodilla, durian, soursop, sugar apple (sweetsop), limited varieties in mangoes, mangosteen, Hawaiian papaya, jackfruit, young coconuts, and other seasonal items. They also have a snack and drink section where they sell sugar cane drinks and fresh fruit cocktails. I always end up spending too much here. I highly recommend them and come here often but not always things turn out good. They've been expanding and have a whole fridge Nextdoor now

Adrian S.

Yelp
Amazing fresh fruit options. I think they have the best sugarcane juice in the city. Love the variety of different fresh fruits. They offering catering for corporate events, wedding, and etc. If you're here, do yourself a favor and check out their bakery that is at the front of the shopping plaza.

Marina C.

Yelp
This place has wonderfully refreshing drinks. I love their sugarcane drinks, especially the coco cane. Everything is real fruit instead of powder you might get at other places, and it tastes very fresh. When I came, the line seemed long, but it moved quickly. There is one counter to order and then another counter on the side to pick up your drink. It was quite loud and crowded when I came. Note: There's no place to sit. It's a to-go place. Also, the store is not just for selling drinks or smoothies. They also sell a variety of tropical fruits and limited grocery items.

Linda's Tropical Fruits in Bellaire, Houston, is a hidden paradise for exotic and tropical fruit enthusiasts. Their variety of fresh fruits, drinks and tropical desserts are a delight. Their diverse menu includes refreshing drinks, smoothies, slushees, açaí bowls, and Vietnamese desserts. While the green juice I tried was disappointingly sour, I would be willing to try this place again and order something else because of how fresh their products are. This is an unassuming hidden gem, complete with ample parking and quick counter service. The ambiance feels like a grocery store combined with a juicery. TLDR: Linda's Tropical Fruits is a hidden tropical paradise in Bellaire, offering a range of enticing treats. Though my green juice experience fell short, I'm excited to sample other delights from their diverse menu.

Yelp
This is heaven for me! I love rau ma (pennywort), durian, anything hard to get in Texas. They have exotic fruits here. I highly recommend their green mangos, jackfruit by the pound, all the drinks were also good! Che Thai had so much fruits in it

Shirin L.

Yelp
I went to their retail location off Bellaire where they have fresh juices, smoothies and açaí bowls. Apparently they had closed down and moved inside their grocery store, also located on Bellaire. The açaí bowl was really good, however, they had increased the price and were only serving one size with no customizable toppings like they had at the other location. The person behind the counter is not friendly and is not very good with answering your questions. He is in a rush to take the next customer. The place is decent inside, clean, but more of a grocery store and they've dedicated the right side of the store for making juices and açaí bowls.

Ciara N.

Yelp
Decided to get some açaí bowls today but I wanted to eat it later. No problem at all. Miquel packed up 2 açaí bowls for me with ice so that I can have it when I get home. How awesome is that...? I also love the fruits from here. Unlike other places that I've purchased fruits from where the fruits are black/dead on the inside, I have only experienced fresh and delicious fruits from Linda's. I love this place but it's like going into a Costco for me. I come out spending 200-$300 every time y'all!! The parking lot here gets really busy esp on the weekends so u try coming here during weekdays. They have all types of tropical fruits here that u can think of and they get it shipped in from all over the world. The other thing about this place is they DO NOT ship their fruits. It's a local shop so come on in and buy so exotic fruits yall.

Sophie Y.

Yelp
Came here to see what tropical fruits are available. Three wax apples for $21 which was insane. Got a fruit juice without ice for $6 and it wasn't even full. The whole place smelled very fruity though. They offer smoothies, slushies and fruit juices. Glad we stopped by but there are other stores in HTX selling tropical fruits for a more reasonable price.

Dominic B.

Yelp
Sugar cane paired with kumquats is really delicious and fresh. But the fruits are very ordinary. In the store, I saw some fruits that were starting to get moldy. It must be that their business is very good, so employees cannot find out immediately. My friend bought mangoseen and shared it with me. To be honest, it's not very fresh

Tan N.

Yelp
Man I go to Linda's wayy to much Their monogrammed hydro flasks and Stanley cups gain you a discount on sugar cane juice which is delicious always fresh!! We always stop by if we're in the area or craving sugar can juice or a fruit smoothie!! They also have moved their açaí bowls to the shop which also delicious! They sell a plethora of exotic fruits just make sure you know how to pick them I have failed a few times Must come for the juice and drinks the service is normally quick!

Danny L.

Yelp
Was I the area again and had to stop in! We saw a new menu item and had to try it. It was a mango dessert drink and was so refreshing and delicious. The mango topping they put on top was FRESHHHHH. Would highly recommend this drink. Also we also got the sugar cane drink and that was refreshing on this hot day...NATURALLY DELICIOUS :)

So many tropical fruit options! We love it here their drinks are delicious . Staff are friendly .

One of my ultimate favorite places to get my favorite fruits and dessert! I'm obsessed with their che Thai, which is a combination of mix fruit, milk, and crushed ice! One thing to note is that their che Thai is never the same each day. They often change it up depending on what fruits are in season and whatnot. It's still just as good, but sometimes it's a hit or miss. But for $6 a large cup, I really can't complain! Their fruits are a pretty good deal and always fresh! They also sell fresh smoothies and pressed juices, which are super refreshing! I always enjoy coming here, especially when it's not super packed and busy. I love the friendly staff and how they get to know their regulars!

Yelp
Let me preface by saying this is a grocery store with a juice bar inside of it. It has a fair amount of parking but there was a delivery truck blocking the entire entrance. I have never heard of this place concerning groceries and I can see why. Their prices are absurd. I ended up paying $50 for a bag of longan, two drinks, and one mango. I got the strawberry milk cream, and it was literally just ice with strawberry coated on the outside. At first glance, it had potential but the texture was horrible, and I don't see myself going here for a while. I also got the mangosteen smoothie, and while the texture was creamier, it was VERY bland. For the establishment to have mangosteen as their logo, you would think their mangosteen drink to have any resemblance of it, but no.

I have been following Linda's Tropical Fruits since pandemic started, it's on my bookmark for a visit. But I just couldn't find it. Finally found it but kept missing the turn. Today. I made a point to turn right after the bridge before the traffic light. Boom. There it is. Oh. My. Gawd. I'm in heaven. Tropical heaven. The pungent tropical fruit jumps right on me as I opened the door. I was shy at first. Because I was greeted by some fresh fruits that only seen on YouTube and Linda's Tropical Fruits' Facebook page. For longest time, I thought it was far away. They brought freshest fruits from the tropics of Asia, mainly Vietnam and The Philippines. I may have read somewhere few fruits from Central America. But don't quote me on it. I don't discriminate fruits' origins. The prices are reasonable for what they are. Although some fruits require to purchase at large quantities. Then, that's not meant for me. I'm just glad that I can taste fresh cane juice anytime of the year. I have tried durian cane juice so far. I'm gonna get more exotic next time. Maybe something red or green, like everyone else ordered.

Linda's Tropical Fruits sells a lot of tropical fruits, drinks, and desserts you would typically find in Vietnamese culture. I came here on a whim for some soursop smoothie after craving for the ones back in Vietnam. The Greneda, or the soursop, drink was creamy and not icy, but it was super bland. I felt like I was just drinking a plain 2% milk smoothie. My partner ordered the strawberry creme, and it was super icy. I also tried buying fruits from my mom here, but after hearing where I was, my mom metioned that the place sold their fruits at a more expensive price. Vietnamese moms always know their fruit places! My partner should have listened to her because his eyes were wide after he purchased some longan and saw the price. Overall, the drinks were either bland or icy, and everything was expensive. I would maybe try their chè, or dessert, next time, but I don't think it would be worth it.

Probably the best açai bowl I've had to date!! I got their tropical smoothie with thai flavors and obviously their signature açai bowl. A bit pricey but not the MOST expensive açai bowl I've ever had but it's definitely outperformed the others. The flavor harmonies of the sweet, tart, deep cacao flavors hidden in certain pockets of the bowl, and what I believe is blue magik (could be wrong) blended soooo well, a lot of açai bowls I've had were too icy or were a bit -one note-, but there was a lot going on while one was not overpowering the other. And soooo smooooooooooth. I also gobbled this down while having a mild flu and felt instant better the next day, not saying it's necessarily related but hey, it could be!! Fun bonus this store really depicts the awesome Asian entrepreneurship that supports Houston's local economy!! :)

My friends recently discovered Linda's and brought me here to try it out. I ordered the sugar cane juice. It was so refreshing. You can see the staff wash the sugar cane and put it into the press machine to get all the juices out. You want fresh? You get fresh! My friend ordered the mango cream. It had fresh mangoes on the top with cream and coconut mixed into the drink. It's sorta like a smoothie texture. I will be coming for the mango cream in my next outing at Linda's.

Tiffany Y.

Yelp
A friend told me that I HAD to try the durian smoothie from here while visiting Houston! I got the regular sized durian smoothie ($5.50), which had durian, milk, and condensed milk. It tasted just like the durian fruit and was one of the best smoothies I've had. I was afraid it would be too sweet with the condensed milk, but it ended up being only lightly sweet. The shop itself also has some pretty unique fruits like mangosteen, jackfruit, pink guava, etc. Definitely recommend coming here if you ever want to try some good quality durian!

If this is the Linda Tropical fruit I ordered from Facebook, I got SCAMMED for $250.00. I ordered a bunch of Oriental fruits plus she made me pay for shipping ($100). Stating I would receive the order overnite. And when I didn't she blocked me. All my communications were returned. I contacted my bank but because I paid her via Zelle my bank rejected my request for a refund. Please do not let anyone order from her. She is a SCAMMER. Unscrupulous for her to do this way to make money. I wish with all my heart KARMA gets them and their families .

Right in the heart of Chinatown Houston you will find Soursop in Houston. Lots of fruits that you can't find anywhere, burro bananas, seeded grapes , and fruit desserts. I didn't know what drink to get so I got a fruit cocktail drink and made it vegan with all coconut milk. Delicous.

I was so excited go there to exploring there exotic fruits store , but leave me speechless the lady who make the fruit bowl was very unsanitized she was using her fingers peeling the avocado with NO GLOVE . That is so gross plus all the fruit containers are open no cover flies are everywhere.the staffs were not polite it feel like going to third world country, it was so disappointed for this trip . Not recommended at all eat at your own risk !

This is a review for their smoothies even though I didn't buy any fruit from here! They do sell a variety of fresh fruits but I really wanted to try their durian smoothie. I love durian but sometimes it's so hard to find some that's sweet, ripe and not ridiculously priced. This smoothie was so good! It wasn't too sweet and the durian flavor was spot on. The employees were so friendly as well. I would highly recommend checking this place out for their smoothies and drinks!

Do I like durian? Do I despise durian?? I always forget how I feel about Durian. Linda and her tropical fruits helped remind me how I feel. Ordered the durian smoothie and really enjoyed it! If I could have any smoothie right now, it's be this smoothie again. good prices and the store has many other things I would have like to eat too (like jackfruit!!) It's fun to watch the big bamboo compressor in the back of the store

Stopped by yesterday because I heard this place has really good fresh sugarcane juice. They have a wide variety of tropical fruits, even the ones that I haven't seen in a while since I went to Vietnam back then. When I went in, there was a line, so there was a bit of a wait before I got my drink. I ordered the sugarcane with kumquat, and it was amazing. On the side, you could see the workers make the drink for you, from washing to juicing the sugarcane. The juice that came out of it got poured straight into the cup (there was no watering down at all), and the juice tasted super fresh and tasty. I will definitely be back here for more sugarcane drinks, to try their other flavors as well as either the half gallon or the gallon sugarcane drinks.

We tried out the vitamin C bowls they were really good. The bases are frozen which is good so they won't melt fast but I think I prefer it to be more of a smoothie texture. Really nice place with great prices on exotic fruits.

Worst place. Don't buy fruits from here. I bought this soursop at this shop for almost 40 dollars. The fruits turn into mold and rotted in 3 days . What a waste of money

They took my 100.00 and never ship the fruits I ordered. I asked before placing my order who pays for shipping and she said they do. After I sent my payment, she comes back asking to send another 100.00 to ship the fruits in an icebox. He'll to the NO, I said. Lesson learned! DO NOT EVER ORDER ONLINE from this place! THEIR A FRAUD!

Love love love. Feels like I was transported back to Vietnam for a second with all the exotic fruits and snacks you can't find in many markets. Prices are high, but the fruits are fresh and satisfying if you're craving something. Che Thai never misses. So delicious, refreshing, and so plenty, I kept eating and somehow there was still more. Perfect level of sweetness. Also got the Jackfruit Smoothie despite it not being on menu and it was so fragrant. Just jackfruit and probably some milk blended together, no frills.

I wasn't expecting a fruit store inside a shopping plaza. It brought me back to my time in Taiwan at the outdoor markets. Linda's has a ton of interesting tropical fruits from Jackfruit to lychee to dragon fruit. Prices are per lb and can get quite pricey. However, the fruit is really fresh. I bought a lb of Australian lychee and they were very sweet. I also love how there is a smoothie station. We opted for the dragon fruit smoothie and it was so good. You can really taste the fruit, even though it came out bright pink. Worth a visit just to see a lot of fruit you don't see in the states.

Their drinks are good, especially their Linda's sugarcane. I was hoping to buy some fresh green mangoes but I was disappointed because their mango batch did not look so fresh. Hopefully, they have a unique selections of salt and pepper and salt, pepper and lemongrass.

Affordable !!! The cheapest place I've experienced for tropical fruits and fresh sugarcane drinks!! They have plenty different fruit combinations with the sugarcane. Love their fresh ready to go fruit options that are chilled.
