WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

    Elizabeth Villarreal
    Fruit is fresh. Very clean establishment. They get busy but move quickly and are friendly customer service. Very good. Sooo much to choose from if your in the mood for a sweet/ salty or sour snack. Highly recommend. ❤️
    Christina Smithers
    I can't believe I didn't come to this place sooner. It was so delicious and so fresh. I got a cup of street corn, and a mangonada. I would have walked out of there with a ton more if I had the room for it. The staff who was there was extremely friendly and easy to talk to. The prices are fair for what you get. Their produce and everything they make is freshly done that day and you can tell from tasting it. The fruit is better than any you'll get inside of a store and is prepared with great care. It's clean and well-run. This place also offers fresh seasonal fruit such as prickly pear when it's available so you can really enjoy the perks of a neighborhood fruit stand the way it's meant to be experienced.

    Wow!!!! So first of all I was immediately impressed with how spotless and clean everything was! They have so many delicious ice cream flavors to choose from, quite a few different paletas, various snacks like corn in a cup, frito pie etc etc! I had a small mangonada and it was the best I’ve ever had! Definitely stop by soon for a sweet treat :) I already can’t wait to go back again!!
