The best part about this place is sitting outside off the road and fish juice at a decent price. Parking is an issue and if u order something from the kitchen you r sure to wait ... Longer than should be for what is served.

I absolutely love this place! The food is fantastic and a very refreshing way to beat the Florida heat. We've come here twice now and each time it has been absolutely delicious. The service was attentive, ambiance was laid back and calm, just like the music they played. This place should be a definite stop for anyone looking for a fantastic, filling, and healthy lunch. Oh, and the mint iced tea is to die for!

Juices are amazing, smoothies, lemonades, wheat grass shots. Super juice spot. Lunches are also good, lots of wraps, salads and sandwiches. Juice bar, and outdoor tables. Highly recommend for that Miami heat.

The food is amazing. Try the platters, the chicken or fish platters are both great. The rice with chickpeas is great! They also have a great selection of juices and smoothies. The pineapple and mint lemonade is so refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness! They're omelette soft breakfast are also really good. They serve really good portions which will fill you up and for the price, you can't beat that! If you want some caffeine in your system try the bananacio and you won't be disappointed! The staff has been extremely nice at all times. No complaints there. The place itself is not in the greatest location so it may be a bit hard to find. Almost everything is outside seating so you have to be okay with that. But the food makes up for anything. I love this place!

4.5 stars Service is a little scattered. I watched my frozen coffee sweat in the heat in the kitchen service window. Minutes ticked by until the busy server noticed and passed it over the bar to me. Maybe it's because you sit at a bar peering into the open kitchen prep space and can see your food staring back at you... and if you are starving... it'll drive you nuts. The food is fresh, and it's good home cooking. We had a lentil soup, a Greek salad, fresh squeezed OJ, and a bananacino. Simple, healthy food cooked with competence. Lentil soup was spiced nicely with potatoes and carrots, thankfully not too much salt, with al dente lentils. Also: I love how they chopped the Greek salad finely so you get a salsa of cucumber, romaine, and tomato in every bite (there is nothing worse than trying to cram a large piece of romaine into your face and look classy while people stare). The prices seem little high because the portions are large. No way can I finish a regular size salad. However, they serve it in a plastic to-go salad bowl, and if you want to take it home, they pop a top on for you. As for the service, I would actually give this place another half star (up to 4.5 stars). The place was starting to get jammed at noon on a Sunday. The servers were all really nice, and the owner stopped by to ask how everything was. I will be back, for sure, and probably at hours that avoid the lunch rush. It's busy because it's good!

We stopped by here for lunch and instantly loved the atmosphere. Very relaxed atmosphere, it almost feels like a vacation. It's the perfect place to come eat and enjoy the beautiful, sunny weather. There's seats at the bar, as well as shaded tables. They have a variety of healthy drinks including smoothies, wheat grass, fresh juices, and even ginger shots. As for the food, I had the combination platter with their fresh fish of the day (tilapia), which came with pita bread, chickpea rice, and a salad. Don't forget to add garlic dill dressing to your salad, my fave! We're definitely coming back here again that's for sure!

Yes, this place maybe located in an odd section of town but it's Totally worth the trip hands down!!! The menu-creative and appetizing. The atmosphere-relaxing...Caribbean like..and breezy-nice. The service-helpful, friendly and accommodating. The food-delicious, healthy and full of flavors. The presentation of the food-excellent and attractive.The drinks-artistic and fruity. The decor-tropical like you're on a vacation in the Islands. The prices-good for healthy meals. The parking-is not that convenient so be careful when you are leaving...the road is windy! **Note: If you are dating a health nut or an exercise fend and you really like them but you still want to enjoy your food this take them place...you both with my happily satisfied...trust me, Tha Yelp Daddy knows best!!! So, check it...I ordered the Brazilian Lemonade, which was tart (which I liked) and super delicious. I also had the Falafel salad, which was so rich in taste that it didn't need any salad dressing, yeah!!! It was that good! Yo!-They even serve breakfast!!! This is my new favorite healthy joint...A++++++++++

Don't be fooled by the looks of this place. The outside looks extremely modest but the falafel salad I had blew my socks off! I can't wait to come back to try more items. I'm shockingly impressed. I would have never assumed this place would be so Great. I drove by this place a number of times and I only noticed it because I love smoothies and fresh juices and their building sign reads 'juice bar' - and their building is lime green (kinda hard to miss). I've been curious for some time but I finally went in because I was in the neighborhood and looking to eat healthy and light, I had been thinking of trying a smoothie. However, after looking at the menu and my fellow Yelper photos so many items caught my attention. I felt compelled to try something. I'm so glad I did. This place is truly a special find and quite a little gem for the NMB/Aventura area. Oh yeah, and the service was perfectly polite and unobtrusively. Just laid back, way chill and comfortable.

Located on the side of the road, this little shack of a bar is quaint and seems welcoming. The service however is horrible. Took 10 minutes for someone to notice us and give us menus then another 15 mins for them to come back and take our orders. The smoothies are good and pretty fresh. The fruit and veggies q e in the open though so people are OCD about cleanliness might mind. I had the soup of the day which was lentil soup. It came with white or whole wheat pita. It was pretty good. I enjoyed it alot. I also tried the heaven ice coffee which was delicious. It had dates, cashews, peanut butter made with coconut milk. Besides the service problem, this place is a good health conscious place to dine in with a lot of sandwich, smoothie and salad choices.

I absolutely love LOVE LOVE this place. This place is a hole in the wall... In middle of no where but they make the best cold turkey wraps! They have the BESSST curry mustard sauce. I am so addicted to the sauce. It is kinda slow here so bring patience but the service is great!! If you are a healthy freak, this is a great place! The offer fresh juicing and coffee.

I went to this spot the day after my 26th birthday as a gift from my best friend. At first glance you aren't sure what you are getting your self into but like always I asked the staff what I should order bc they do work there and im sure they have eaten there plenty of times so they know what's good, decent and what to stay away from. I ordered the Mexican turkey panini and my bestie (Lauren) ordered the first salad on the menu. The panini was F***ing amazing! It was sooo gooey and moist but the bread was crunchy and hot, it didn't even have cheese on it & it was amazing. You have to try all the sauces and yes I mean ALL of them. All the sauces look as if they are made there. The Tahini sauce was my favorite then the curry and then the dill sauce. I can't wait to go back and try something new!!!

The staff is friendly! Service is great and fast! My partner and I had the heavenly iced coffee! Falafel as an appetizer! The energy of this place is fantastic! Even on a hot sunny day they have fans blowing with water mist blowing in our direction to cool us down! The music is fantastic! The menu is so overwhelmingly diverse (in a good way) I love that there prices are affordable and the food taste as if you made it at home with love

Another great lunch haunt that I will occasionally stop by on the weekends when my husband and I are running errands around Aventura. Dining on their patio always sort of feels like a vacation, except for when the train comes by! This is a great place for a health conscious, filling lunch. The service can be quite slow, so don't expect to be in in and out. Go on a nice day and enjoy the beautiful weather while eating a leisurely lunch. Miami Squeeze is great for healthy, large, filling portions. I typically order a salad, which is, like I mentioned before, huge and filling. They serve their salads in large plastic bowls so they're great for takeaway or eating there. They also set down a variety of "dressings" that you can use on your salad, it's great if you like to mix and match. I find that they put a ton of veggies and high quality ingredients in each salad, as opposed to ordering an afterthought salad on a regular restaurant menu. I've also had their falafel which is quite delicious and I believe it's baked as opposed to fried. It can be somewhat hard to find as it's on a side road near the railroad tracks, but it's worth the search. You won't be disappointed if you're looking for tasty, healthy, and relaxing.

Excellent healthy food tucked away on Dixie Hwy. I ordered the rosemary chicken panini (pesto is succulent) and didn't have to add anything to it. Ciabatta bread perfectly browned. Extensive menu with wraps, smoothies, wheatgrass drinks, salads, paninis and a breakfast menu. Fairly priced. Daily specials also. Open until 9pm. Great place to get your post gym drink. The strawberry fields smoothie is a great way to get your kale in without the kale taste. All the drinks are made at the juice bar and there is a full staff so you are promptly attended to. TIP: complimentary water is flavored with lemon in a pitcher before it's poured in your glass. Make sure to ask for regular water if you don't like lemon in your water. Will return!!

This place is amazeballs! Very homey and cozy with a dash of a la mode! My brother took me here for a quick smoothie, after seeing the menu I was so excited and overwhelmed Jean Paul, the barista, had to make a selection for me. He was very attentive and knowledgable, he was able to gather everything I said I loved and put it into one cup of greatness! He suggested the Heaven Ice Coffee, which I loved!! Needless to say, I will be coming back for more. It's legal to marry establishments now!

Ive been coming here since Amos was the owner, I don't know 10+ years ago. The owners have changed, but food is pretty much the same. Very consistent and reliable, awesome juices and healthy food, this is why I find myself keep coming back. Yes, I drift away, and hit other spots that offer similar food, but what really keeps me coming back is the falafel. They have everyone else beat, hands down. The restaurant is quite small, although they recently expanded and have patio area in the back, and a large patio area on the side. They even modified part of the inside to be air conditioning, for those really hot and humid Miami days. They have misters outside too, so if you sit outside it really isn't that bad. The pricing is very reasonable, and the juices and smoothies are made fresh, right in front of your eyes. They offer call ahead, so you can pick up and have your food ready when you get there. They have amazing sauces and dressings too. Last time I was there, I saw the cook with a RUSH concert T-shirt, and well, that pretty much sealed the deal for me. Im a fan for life. Parking can be a little hectic, being that West Dixie Highway is a P.I.T.A sometimes, but overall, not bad at all. If you have never been here, you really should check it out. Solid 4 stars, for this NMB local spot!

The food here is AMAZING! One of the best places in North Miami for a fresh healthy meal or juice. We come here about 2X a week. HOWEVER, the service here is terrible!!! The servers are all nice but constantly forgetting things! The last 3 times we've ordered a salad with no olives the salad has showed up with olives on it! Also, sometime it takes 5-10 minutes when we sit down to get a sever to pay us attention - we've actually started calling in our orders to go because it still takes 20-30 minutes for our food to show up even once we get to the restaurant. Also, we're never brought water and even when we ask for it our servers seem to forget or take 10 minutes to bring us water. I really like this place but management - PLEASE work on improving your service!

First time coming to Miami Squeeze (around 3 p.m.). It's a cozy place with a friendly staff. It has outdoor/shaded seating. I ordered the Falafel salad and a ginger shot, and I received my order in less than 10 minutes. The food was delicious. I will come back to try their wraps and smoothies =)
(5)
Vanessa J.
I've been to Miami squeeze only twice && both times were superb! It's a really laid back atmosphere && you wouldn't expect such great, tasty. FRESH food would come out of this place. I got the falafel platter with the gyro. Super tasty and it's served with brown rice with chick peas && a nice portion of a side salad. On top of the food they bring out 6... UH-AMZING sauces, holy moly! If the sauces were on the menu I would purchase them to take home! It's outside seating && they have fans to cool you down. Parking is pretty limited, probably around 8-10 spots from what I noticed. So if it gets packed you have to park elsewhere. Service is cool, attentive both times. Mellow young people. Very casual. Since it's outside seating I've seen customer bring their dogs.

Maritza A.
It seems like they changed management for the worst, horrible customer service. 10 minutes to have someone ask if I need help and then another 10 minutes to have someone else ask if I've ordered. Decent food, and juices are still ok, but don't expect any free water . I will definitely not re-visit this place.
(2)
Renee M.
Stopped here randomly and so glad we did! The juices are so fresh and delicious, I would definitely recommend coming here for that alone. However, we couldn't resist trying something off the menu so we ordered the falafel pita and it was sooo good. Again, it was just fresh and healthy. Would absolutely come back.

Joe S.
Always looking for a good smoothie and Yelp brought me here. I ordered the BOS and would definitely recommend it. Fresh fruit and honey to sweeten, how can you go wrong. Service was good as well, server corrected me with a bit of an attitude because we pronounced something incorrectly but I wouldn't say that's to much of a big deal.

Rudy N.
Love everything about this place, but stopped coming (and took away a star) because of the fish selection only being tilapia.. I think we all know tilapia does not count as 'fish' these days. Please get something like Mahi Mahi (something not genetically modified). We will pay more for it.. Or at least make it an option... Then we will be there everyday :p we are getting tired of eating Chipotle for lunch everyday.

The place is super clean for what it is, a fast food place with healthy food. Service is a bit lost but friendly. Plenty if seating and parking available. I loved my juice which comes with ice (great for a hot day like today) but my falafel wrap was blah, I was excited about the falafel after the food reviews... But besides from that I will return for more juices, maybe not food...

I've been coming here since I was a kid-- fresh juice & smoothies with zero crap in them, what's not to love? Was happy to see their menu has expanded yet again but I stuck to my smoothies per usual-- more cooked foods than when they opened. Not kosher but a lot of "kosher style" options on the menu.

Supa Dave D.
Nice little spot. Juice is fresh. Food is really good. Service is ehhh. They have no system implemented so when it gets packed they don't know who can first and who came fifth. I got skipped over twice by people that got there after me. Also, I had to ask for my tab like 3 times. If you are a patient person (unlike myself, maybe I need to up my yoga game) then this spot should be good for you. Either way, worth checking out if your not in a rush for lunch.

Taylor S.
Terrible customer service. Waited at the bar for at least 10 minutes to be served without a word being said to me. Eventually moved to a table when my colleague arrived and still none of the wait staff noticed we were there. I ended up asking the table next to us if they had been served and they said the same thing. They even went up and asked for service and were told multiple times they would be with them in a moment and that they are very busy... Even though from our observation many of them were gathered behind the bar standing around not appearing to do anything but waiting for smoothie orders to be blended. We all ended up leaving. Most likely without them even noticing or probably caring.

My favorite place by far for years now. It's gotten better and better as far as quality food goes. EVERYTHING is delicious. Small, quaint and laid back but always on point.

i came here several years ago, and remember it being exceptionally good. i'm back now and happy to see that hasn't changed. it's an odd location amongst auto repair shops, and technically in Ojus but on the edge of Aventura. you could drive past a hundred times without stopping, and you'd never know what you missed. if you did stop, you'd find friendly people serving fast yet excellent food. in a nutshell, they serve breakfast, lunch, juices and smoothies. i haven't sampled it all (yet), but so far so good. on this visit, i had the Popeye's omelet and a mango berry smoothie. try it - you won't be disappointed!

Totally disappointed.... They attended me quick as soon as i sat down felt great,put my order in and waited exactly 48 minutes when people that was after me order and got their food first. Have a lot of patience but this was just bad when they realize my order was never placed in the kitchen after almost an hour! Follow up should be done if its been a considerable amount of time for the order.

This place is too cute. I'm from out of town and found Miami Squeeze on yelp. I've been there twice in the last two days because it's so easy going and chill. The smoothies/juices are delicious and the staff are knowledgeable. In addition to good drinks made just the way you like it, they also serve food with clean, healthy and protein-packed choices. The orange and mint infused water was delicious too! No complaints. I'll be back a few more time while I'm still in town.

I love the beach shack, chill vibe of this place. I really do...BUT I really don't like the service. I've been here twice and both times I had to stare creepily to get service and had to practically beg someone to take my money upon leaving. On my first trip I had a smoothie. Mango, coconut milk, honey and strawberries. I thought it was good but then realized the cup was pretty small for $5! I could have made this at home. On my second trip, I had the infamous falafel. We sat in the back and waited while listening to a guy on guitar play such tunes as "Hotel California". Not bad. We were served our falafels with 4 sauces, tahini (shouldn't it already be in my sandwich?), some spicy parsley mix and two others I can't remember. Before I took a bite my falafel fell apart. Ok, I guess that's why they gave us forks. The falafel balls were crispy and delicious but the fillings were nothing to write home about. I'll go so far as to say Aventura Pita on the other side of the tracks is WAY better, but lacks the cool factor this place offers.

I'm pretty sure they changed their name to miami squeeze, and miamisqueeze.com is the new website. I don't know why they changed the name or If they have new owners or when this happened, if anyone knows anything fill me in. Haven't been there in awhile but it's got a really chill atmosphere and great food and smoothies.

Best juice bar in the Aventura/ Miami area by far. Food is always Fresh and portions are great. They have everything from wheat grass shots even their own specialty drink called the Flu Shot if your feeling under the weather. Their smoothies and squeezed juices are literally the freshest around. I recommend their falafel platter or any of their salads. Miami has many juice bars that are over priced, But Miami squeeze you get more for your money and you get fresh. Highly recommend and I am a juice bar nut

Juice+salads with a Mediterranean inspiration.. Sit and the bar outside and make friends with your neighbor. This spot is laid back and the service could test your patience when you ask the cashier a couple of times to bring you more pita and then blank stares at you like you never ask her before... Kinda spacey maybe they get high on their own wheatgrass supply. Food was served fast and they have over 4 sauces to choose from to jazz your vegetables with.. Garlic tahini, dill tahini, ginger and something else that I obviously didn't care to try. There's not many healthy choices up north so this one makes my bucket list! Happy to have reconnect make to this spot I found over 10 years ago. Highly recommend if your around the area. Lots of clean food to choose from.

After coming across Fritty's review on the "What's Hot on Yelp" section of the iPhone app, I remembered that we've never been here despite living approximately a mile or two from its location. We pulled up around noonish to find the entire outside bar seating taken, and took up a bench in the front part of the restaurant. Although it was a typical hot and sticky afternoon, thankfully there were mist fans in full effect to help cool us off. We weren't planning on eating anything, but rather stopped in for a drink to cool us off. The menu is pretty extensive with a lot of choices for smoothies and custom juices (Jamba who?) but considering I had yet to have any caffeine, I opted for the Bananachino. It tasted exactly what one would assume; iced cappuccino with the added flavor and thickness of banana blended in. Yum! My boyfriend ordered the Raspberry Lemonade (freshly squeezed lemons, raspberries, and pineapple juices) but wasn't much of a fan. I took one sip and was in love. He isn't much of a fruit juice drinker, but if you love fruity concoctions that'll kick your taste buds into full gear, I recommend trying it out. Even though our first stop at the Big Squeeze was a short one, the service was very friendly and attentive. We'll definitely be back to try the food. For those looking for a good breakfast deal, they were offering: 2 eggs any style, turkey sausage, toast, and coffee for just $4.99! Though, I have a feeling the falafel is the route I'll be taking during our next visit. Some additional pros: - They deliver Mon - Sat 11am-3pm if you live close enough. - Buy 10 smoothies, get the next one free (ask for a smoothies card). - Dog friendly if you sit outside on the patio/garden area. (Technically giving 3.5 stars until I have the food)

David C.
Everything here is good. Some standouts include: ... the grape leaves, ... the liquid salad(don't ask, just order it), ... anything with hummus, ... the grilled chicken salad and, ... off course the Greek wrap. They also make VERY good tuna and chicken salad. They do get packed, it's in a weird location, not the cleaned place and tends to be slow. It is all well worth it.

Scarlett W.
This place is pretty great. You can get so many different kinds of fresh juices and they taste amazing. It's super casual and has this feel of being in the Caribbean even though it is on an ugly road with mechanic shops all around. Don't let that deter you. Grab a stool and sit at the counter, nice people, excellent fresh and healthy food. The falafel looked good, I will try it next time. The whole wheat pita I had with my omelette was fresh and good. Popeye omelette, loaded with vegetables. You can eat a lot and not feel guilty.

Aletha C.
Was in the mood for something healthy in the way of sustanence and thought I would check this place out. Was going to order a smoothie but opted for the liquid salad instead because it sounded intriguing. Also went for the falafal. Sat in back in the not very big dining area waiting for what seemed like a long time for the food, but maybe it was just because I was so hungry. My meal arrived and I pounced. It was very, very good. Liked the sauce that came with the falafal and was messy to eat. Felt a bit neglected with the service but it was a quality experience overall and I will probably be back to try something else from the menu selection.

Stopped by last Saturday. It was jumping with locals. Some guy was performing out front with his guitar. The music was a bit obnoxious, but I did enjoy the food and the overall laid-back vibe. They have a pretty decent variety of food with great options for vegans / vegetarians. I had a falafel wrap which did not come with a side, but was filling nonetheless. The wrap was kind of dry, but it did come with some sauces that I periodically poured onto it. I sampled a fruit smoothie, which was decent. The water they served was flavored (orange?); an unexpected surprise as I never drank flavored "water" before and can now see the appeal. The prices here are unbeatable. Great quality food, all healthy, all affordable. If I had to pick something about Big Squeeze that I didn't like, it would be the service. I sat in the back where the tables were at, and I rarely saw my server. Even though I had to actively seek her out at the end to pay my bill, I didn't let it get to me. I still had a great experience. Oh, and this place is located right next to the train tracks... lol it can get loud. But I like trains, so I was thoroughly amused when one made an appearance.

Ray M.
Awesome, fresh-juice concoctions, and a plethora of different wraps and sandwiches make this joint a no brainer for a quick bite or a fresh squeezed juice fix! During my last visit I had their chicken and fafel gyro with a generous smothering of their chickpea/ tatziki sauce...OMG! a must-try if you're in the neighborhood. Service is quick and friendly and food quality is consistently good.

Chuck M.
If more places were like this I'd easily become a vegetarian. Broad selection of dishes, not everything was vegan, but the vegetarian selections just seemed so appetizing I had to try. Food was good, smoothies great as well and service on point for an outdoor patio style dining experience. All in all I was pleasantly pleased and I will return without a doubt when in Aventura area.

Bennett R.
I like Big Squeeze. Casual, healthy, low key. Tons of fresh fruit and veggie juices and smoothies, sandwiches, paninis, and platters. Lots of vegetarian options, they also serve lighter meats - turkey burgers, cold cuts, and shwarma. Middle easternish with a Caribbean slant. Good, fresh, healthy alternative for lunch. The jalapeño sauce is great on anything. It caters heavily to vegetarians, but most omnivores will do just fine too.
(4)
Natalia G.
I like the chill outdoor feel and picnic tables - if it's a nice day, this can't be beat for a laid back brunch. Smoothies are good (raspberry lemonade was bomb) and while the food is not out of this world, I don't expect gourmet cuisine if it's served to me in a clear plastic bowl. I'd even consider bumping this rating to a 3.5 because they have lots of homemade sauces upon request.

Why did I think this place was called Miami Squeeze? Too much Miami Vice in my younger days I guess. This place has been here since I moved to Miami over 12 years ago. Its my first time trying it out. Its lunchtime and I'm not mad hungry. My date is though. He's starving, but he always is. He's got one of those metabolisms that eats every two or three hours and never puts on weight. We get there about 1:10, park in the back (there is some parking in behind the building if the spots out front are all taken). The counter is pretty much taken up with people so I go to a waitress and tell her I'm taking a couple of menus and sitting in the back area. Quick look at the menu and we know we are ordering the falafel app. and Rosemary Chicken Panini. And then we wait. And wait. Finally the waitress appears and we put in our order. The falafel arrives and it is awesome. I'm loving it as my new falafel place. It goes great with the tahini/garlicy sauce in one of five bottles of sauce which were deposited on the table. As a matter of fact, it goes great with each and every sauce/dressing and a mixture of sauces and even on its own. Its served with a fluffy pita split in two (Aarons pita I'm guessing). And then our Rosemary chicken panini arrives, only it doesn't. There's no chicken and its not what we ordered at all, only the waitress has disappeared and is nowhere to be found. So I walk it over to the counter and tell the first person I find that its not what we ordered and can we please just have another falafel app because its so late and I'm going to be late back to work. The second order of falafel arrives and we eat it and no sign of our waitress. Walk up to the counter and ask for the check. More waiting. Hello please can I give you my money!! The food is great - the falafel is five stars. The service is very sketch despite their having at least four people there behind the counter and not a lot of people sitting at tables. Perhaps if you sit at the actual counter the service may be faster. I think that's what I'll do next time, because there will be a next time for the food. For ambiance, think Le Tub - nothing fancy. Your sitting in an outdoor patio area between the railway and West Dixie Highway.

Good stop for smoothies and salads. Watch out for train. We found this little gem just in time for a late lunch. There is a good variety of smoothies here, and the two we picked were very good. I ate a salad, of which they had a ton of different kinds to choose from, and Hemi's mom ate a Panini, which she says was yummy. The portions of my salad was generous; I had some trouble finishing all of it. There is a train that runs right behind the location, which I could see make conversation difficult, but only one passed while we were there, and actually we both enjoyed watching it go by. Overall, I enjoyed the atmosphere and loved the food.

I had a very good vegetarian platter (falafels, stuffed grape leaves, humus, and salad) from Big Squeeze. Everything was very flavorful, fresh, and the service was great. Their coffee iced drink is also delish!

MY GOODNESS THIS PLACE IS A LIVING PARADISE. I AM THE PICKIEST EATER YOU WILL EVER MEET BUT I HAD A HUGE FOODGASM HERE. *** PLEASE GO TO THEIR WEBSITE TO VIEW THEIR MENU..THEY HAVE TAKE OUT & YOU CAN ORDER ONLINE!*** juiceatery.com ok, anything, i mean ANYTHING you pick on the menu will turn out good. my BFF said the falafel is the best and I've never had it but i tried it and boy, was it heavenly! the food isnt pricy and its healthy...although it caters to the vegetarians...THIS PLACE SERVES MEAT. I REPEAT, THIS PLACE SERVES MEAT. awesome, huh? i ABSOLUTELY love this place and the ambiance is very hut-like. the place is very laid back. I had to ask for the waitress to come by but no worries! very nice staff and the food makes up for it. don't come here for romance or business lunches...this is a place to go for brunch, breakfast, or lunch and sit and talk for hours with your bff or whoever you feel like sitting in front of and munching on good food with! OH AND BEST PART...YOU WILL FEEL LIKE YOU HELPED YOUR BODY OUT BY EATING THIS FOOD. Very healthy, hearty food. It's really hard to find food that is delicious as well as healthy and good for you. Glad this place exists! __________________________________________________ official review::: Hungry but can't decide what you want? In need of a smoothie or wheatgrass shot or pineapple-strawberry lemonade or all three to quench your thirst?? Well here's a suggestion with a selection - tucked between the train tracks and West Dixie near Aventura is a hidden gem called the Big Squeeze which boasts a massive menu of healthy goodness. A brief run-down of the sections: Breakfast (served 'til noon), Starters and Sides, Sandwiches, Hot and Cold Wraps, Melts, Platters, Salads, Specials and more. I had a huge pita sandwich with a big ol' slab of grilled tofu and my companion had a yummy falafel salad with tahini dressing. Happily, they're one of those places that realizes the importance of delicious dips and sauces in vegetarian eating and they offer several options (and for the flesh-eaters they do offer lean chicken and fish). Then there is the ginormous selection of fresh-pressed juices and whole fruit smoothies. You can sit on their nice patio or just walk up to their diner counter. I really wish this place was closer to my house, but I try to hit it up whenever I'm in the area. For those of you lucky enough to live nearby, they even deliver.

Great atmosphere, and very friendly staff many times they give you free shots of wheat grass, or what ever is available for that time. They have fans with a water breeze to cool you down so you do not feel the heat outside. Highly recomend the Falafel it taste better then anny middle eastern falafel. Well worth going

If there was an option for no starts, I would choose that. I stopped in for a quick lunch in between meetings and I was highly disappointed. I have been before, both eating in, the counter and take out and all was good... Maybe there are new managers? I wanted to sit at the counter and as I was sitting down the waitress told me to sit inside... Not what I wanted. She then went back and forth a few times before coming to take my order. After she took my order, she then took another tables order... It was obvious I was in a hurry, she should have put my order in and then come back. My sandwich was brought to me (a turkey pita) and I could not have been more disappointed. For a place that is supposed to have FRESH food... It was no more than Oscar Meyer slimy processed turkey. I wouldn't even buy that turkey at a store... It was gross, slimy and not what I would expect. I ate (because I had no time to stop somewhere else) and had to go back up to the counter so I could get my check. Again, the waitress did a million things before my check was brought and then when it did arrive, I asked for a pen. She told me that the pen was inside the folder and I assured her it was not and it was in her hand... Not a good experience, not a good lunch and I won't be going back.

I mostly come here to not die from a chicken wing overdose or after a meal that i know did absolutely nothing for me. Liquid Salad is my "go-to" since its pretty nutritious and Popeye's Omelette is my favorite breakfast. I've been coming here for about a year now at least twice a month and I've never had a problem with service or food. Never a bad vibe, never a bad meal. Only negative I see if that there's no AC since its outside. But if you can't handle the heat then do yourself a favor and move somewhere that's not Miami.

This is my go-to place when I want good, healthy food options. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because sometimes they get my order wrong. But they're nice, the ambiance feels like you're in key west and the children get a kick out of the train when it passes through. The live music on the weekends is cool too. Overall great place!

Get away from the hustle and bustle that is Biscayne Blvd in Aventura and drive across the railroad tracks to West Dixie Highway and you'll find this juice stand that's been a fixture in the community for over 25 years. Grab a bar stool and pony up to the counter and order lunch. Yes, lunch. it's not just a juice stand. The menu's got sandwiches, panini's, salads, felafels, wraps, etc It would be nice if they served cold beer, but you can't have everything. This place gets kinda busy too, even on the warmer summer day's. If you're in work dud's and end up there on a summer day, you may want to order to-go because you'll get pretty hot sweaty sitting out there in the middle of the day. But an excellent lunch choice on one of the more milder days.

The best part about this place is sitting outside off the road and fish juice at a decent price. Parking is an issue and if u order something from the kitchen you r sure to wait ... Longer than should be for what is served.
(3)Kathy L.
I absolutely love this place! The food is fantastic and a very refreshing way to beat the Florida heat. We've come here twice now and each time it has been absolutely delicious. The service was attentive, ambiance was laid back and calm, just like the music they played. This place should be a definite stop for anyone looking for a fantastic, filling, and healthy lunch. Oh, and the mint iced tea is to die for!
(4)Orgasmic L.
Juices are amazing, smoothies, lemonades, wheat grass shots. Super juice spot. Lunches are also good, lots of wraps, salads and sandwiches. Juice bar, and outdoor tables. Highly recommend for that Miami heat.
(4)Marjorie D.
The food is amazing. Try the platters, the chicken or fish platters are both great. The rice with chickpeas is great! They also have a great selection of juices and smoothies. The pineapple and mint lemonade is so refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness! They're omelette soft breakfast are also really good. They serve really good portions which will fill you up and for the price, you can't beat that! If you want some caffeine in your system try the bananacio and you won't be disappointed! The staff has been extremely nice at all times. No complaints there. The place itself is not in the greatest location so it may be a bit hard to find. Almost everything is outside seating so you have to be okay with that. But the food makes up for anything. I love this place!

4.5 stars Service is a little scattered. I watched my frozen coffee sweat in the heat in the kitchen service window. Minutes ticked by until the busy server noticed and passed it over the bar to me. Maybe it's because you sit at a bar peering into the open kitchen prep space and can see your food staring back at you... and if you are starving... it'll drive you nuts. The food is fresh, and it's good home cooking. We had a lentil soup, a Greek salad, fresh squeezed OJ, and a bananacino. Simple, healthy food cooked with competence. Lentil soup was spiced nicely with potatoes and carrots, thankfully not too much salt, with al dente lentils. Also: I love how they chopped the Greek salad finely so you get a salsa of cucumber, romaine, and tomato in every bite (there is nothing worse than trying to cram a large piece of romaine into your face and look classy while people stare). The prices seem little high because the portions are large. No way can I finish a regular size salad. However, they serve it in a plastic to-go salad bowl, and if you want to take it home, they pop a top on for you. As for the service, I would actually give this place another half star (up to 4.5 stars). The place was starting to get jammed at noon on a Sunday. The servers were all really nice, and the owner stopped by to ask how everything was. I will be back, for sure, and probably at hours that avoid the lunch rush. It's busy because it's good!

We stopped by here for lunch and instantly loved the atmosphere. Very relaxed atmosphere, it almost feels like a vacation. It's the perfect place to come eat and enjoy the beautiful, sunny weather. There's seats at the bar, as well as shaded tables. They have a variety of healthy drinks including smoothies, wheat grass, fresh juices, and even ginger shots. As for the food, I had the combination platter with their fresh fish of the day (tilapia), which came with pita bread, chickpea rice, and a salad. Don't forget to add garlic dill dressing to your salad, my fave! We're definitely coming back here again that's for sure!
(4)Chris C.
Yes, this place maybe located in an odd section of town but it's Totally worth the trip hands down!!! The menu-creative and appetizing. The atmosphere-relaxing...Caribbean like..and breezy-nice. The service-helpful, friendly and accommodating. The food-delicious, healthy and full of flavors. The presentation of the food-excellent and attractive.The drinks-artistic and fruity. The decor-tropical like you're on a vacation in the Islands. The prices-good for healthy meals. The parking-is not that convenient so be careful when you are leaving...the road is windy! **Note: If you are dating a health nut or an exercise fend and you really like them but you still want to enjoy your food this take them place...you both with my happily satisfied...trust me, Tha Yelp Daddy knows best!!! So, check it...I ordered the Brazilian Lemonade, which was tart (which I liked) and super delicious. I also had the Falafel salad, which was so rich in taste that it didn't need any salad dressing, yeah!!! It was that good! Yo!-They even serve breakfast!!! This is my new favorite healthy joint...A++++++++++

Don't be fooled by the looks of this place. The outside looks extremely modest but the falafel salad I had blew my socks off! I can't wait to come back to try more items. I'm shockingly impressed. I would have never assumed this place would be so Great. I drove by this place a number of times and I only noticed it because I love smoothies and fresh juices and their building sign reads 'juice bar' - and their building is lime green (kinda hard to miss). I've been curious for some time but I finally went in because I was in the neighborhood and looking to eat healthy and light, I had been thinking of trying a smoothie. However, after looking at the menu and my fellow Yelper photos so many items caught my attention. I felt compelled to try something. I'm so glad I did. This place is truly a special find and quite a little gem for the NMB/Aventura area. Oh yeah, and the service was perfectly polite and unobtrusively. Just laid back, way chill and comfortable.
(5)Linda L.
Located on the side of the road, this little shack of a bar is quaint and seems welcoming. The service however is horrible. Took 10 minutes for someone to notice us and give us menus then another 15 mins for them to come back and take our orders. The smoothies are good and pretty fresh. The fruit and veggies q e in the open though so people are OCD about cleanliness might mind. I had the soup of the day which was lentil soup. It came with white or whole wheat pita. It was pretty good. I enjoyed it alot. I also tried the heaven ice coffee which was delicious. It had dates, cashews, peanut butter made with coconut milk. Besides the service problem, this place is a good health conscious place to dine in with a lot of sandwich, smoothie and salad choices.
(3)Jessica S.
When I came here I had the falafel pita bread sandwich and it was pretty good. I also had it with the garlic sauce on the side which was also pretty good.
(4)Gina I.
Love this place, very fresh! Alma's salad was filling and very good. I added the tuna :) try the hummus too it's very good.
(5)Dany B.
Relaxing atmosphere,great food and service.Purchased a Groupon and Im very happy with the Sicilian Panini I ordered.I ate with such an Appetite.incredible! Next time Im bringing all my frs there. The only minus is that the location isnt all that greAt.
(5)John S.
Was convinced to hit Miami squeeze and to try the wrap the wrap was pretty good enjoyed the Curry need to try other favorites overall good food great ambiance and service
(4)Lola N.
I absolutely love LOVE LOVE this place. This place is a hole in the wall... In middle of no where but they make the best cold turkey wraps! They have the BESSST curry mustard sauce. I am so addicted to the sauce. It is kinda slow here so bring patience but the service is great!! If you are a healthy freak, this is a great place! The offer fresh juicing and coffee.
(5)Calvin s.
I went to this spot the day after my 26th birthday as a gift from my best friend. At first glance you aren't sure what you are getting your self into but like always I asked the staff what I should order bc they do work there and im sure they have eaten there plenty of times so they know what's good, decent and what to stay away from. I ordered the Mexican turkey panini and my bestie (Lauren) ordered the first salad on the menu. The panini was F***ing amazing! It was sooo gooey and moist but the bread was crunchy and hot, it didn't even have cheese on it & it was amazing. You have to try all the sauces and yes I mean ALL of them. All the sauces look as if they are made there. The Tahini sauce was my favorite then the curry and then the dill sauce. I can't wait to go back and try something new!!!
(5)VIDA L.
Love the laid back atmosphere and the great menu options. Presentation goes a long way and they have it down to a science!
(5)Joseph T.
The staff is friendly! Service is great and fast! My partner and I had the heavenly iced coffee! Falafel as an appetizer! The energy of this place is fantastic! Even on a hot sunny day they have fans blowing with water mist blowing in our direction to cool us down! The music is fantastic! The menu is so overwhelmingly diverse (in a good way) I love that there prices are affordable and the food taste as if you made it at home with love
(4)Ana F.
This place is awesome. Food and drinks are always fresh. A little pricey but good sized portions.
(5)Drew D.
Another great lunch haunt that I will occasionally stop by on the weekends when my husband and I are running errands around Aventura. Dining on their patio always sort of feels like a vacation, except for when the train comes by! This is a great place for a health conscious, filling lunch. The service can be quite slow, so don't expect to be in in and out. Go on a nice day and enjoy the beautiful weather while eating a leisurely lunch. Miami Squeeze is great for healthy, large, filling portions. I typically order a salad, which is, like I mentioned before, huge and filling. They serve their salads in large plastic bowls so they're great for takeaway or eating there. They also set down a variety of "dressings" that you can use on your salad, it's great if you like to mix and match. I find that they put a ton of veggies and high quality ingredients in each salad, as opposed to ordering an afterthought salad on a regular restaurant menu. I've also had their falafel which is quite delicious and I believe it's baked as opposed to fried. It can be somewhat hard to find as it's on a side road near the railroad tracks, but it's worth the search. You won't be disappointed if you're looking for tasty, healthy, and relaxing.
(4)Melody S.
Excellent healthy food tucked away on Dixie Hwy. I ordered the rosemary chicken panini (pesto is succulent) and didn't have to add anything to it. Ciabatta bread perfectly browned. Extensive menu with wraps, smoothies, wheatgrass drinks, salads, paninis and a breakfast menu. Fairly priced. Daily specials also. Open until 9pm. Great place to get your post gym drink. The strawberry fields smoothie is a great way to get your kale in without the kale taste. All the drinks are made at the juice bar and there is a full staff so you are promptly attended to. TIP: complimentary water is flavored with lemon in a pitcher before it's poured in your glass. Make sure to ask for regular water if you don't like lemon in your water. Will return!!
(5)Julio F.
This place is amazing. Stop searching for other places to eat and just come here. You won't be disappointed! Fresh juices made to order and delicious healthy food...and the sauces/dressings are delicious!!!
(5)Rosie C.
Every time im in the area, i cant help myself ... the juices & smoothies are great. I loved the mint lemonade, very refreshing. GUILT FREE fun eating ... MUST TRY IT!!!
(5)Claudette C.
FRESH, FRESH, FRESH!!! I've been coming here for years!
(5)P E.
This place is amazeballs! Very homey and cozy with a dash of a la mode! My brother took me here for a quick smoothie, after seeing the menu I was so excited and overwhelmed Jean Paul, the barista, had to make a selection for me. He was very attentive and knowledgable, he was able to gather everything I said I loved and put it into one cup of greatness! He suggested the Heaven Ice Coffee, which I loved!! Needless to say, I will be coming back for more. It's legal to marry establishments now!
(5)Rob G.
Ive been coming here since Amos was the owner, I don't know 10+ years ago. The owners have changed, but food is pretty much the same. Very consistent and reliable, awesome juices and healthy food, this is why I find myself keep coming back. Yes, I drift away, and hit other spots that offer similar food, but what really keeps me coming back is the falafel. They have everyone else beat, hands down. The restaurant is quite small, although they recently expanded and have patio area in the back, and a large patio area on the side. They even modified part of the inside to be air conditioning, for those really hot and humid Miami days. They have misters outside too, so if you sit outside it really isn't that bad. The pricing is very reasonable, and the juices and smoothies are made fresh, right in front of your eyes. They offer call ahead, so you can pick up and have your food ready when you get there. They have amazing sauces and dressings too. Last time I was there, I saw the cook with a RUSH concert T-shirt, and well, that pretty much sealed the deal for me. Im a fan for life. Parking can be a little hectic, being that West Dixie Highway is a P.I.T.A sometimes, but overall, not bad at all. If you have never been here, you really should check it out. Solid 4 stars, for this NMB local spot!
(4)Shannon L.
The food here is AMAZING! One of the best places in North Miami for a fresh healthy meal or juice. We come here about 2X a week. HOWEVER, the service here is terrible!!! The servers are all nice but constantly forgetting things! The last 3 times we've ordered a salad with no olives the salad has showed up with olives on it! Also, sometime it takes 5-10 minutes when we sit down to get a sever to pay us attention - we've actually started calling in our orders to go because it still takes 20-30 minutes for our food to show up even once we get to the restaurant. Also, we're never brought water and even when we ask for it our servers seem to forget or take 10 minutes to bring us water. I really like this place but management - PLEASE work on improving your service!
(3)Carita M.
First time coming to Miami Squeeze (around 3 p.m.). It's a cozy place with a friendly staff. It has outdoor/shaded seating. I ordered the Falafel salad and a ginger shot, and I received my order in less than 10 minutes. The food was delicious. I will come back to try their wraps and smoothies =)
(5)Vanessa J.
I've been to Miami squeeze only twice && both times were superb! It's a really laid back atmosphere && you wouldn't expect such great, tasty. FRESH food would come out of this place. I got the falafel platter with the gyro. Super tasty and it's served with brown rice with chick peas && a nice portion of a side salad. On top of the food they bring out 6... UH-AMZING sauces, holy moly! If the sauces were on the menu I would purchase them to take home! It's outside seating && they have fans to cool you down. Parking is pretty limited, probably around 8-10 spots from what I noticed. So if it gets packed you have to park elsewhere. Service is cool, attentive both times. Mellow young people. Very casual. Since it's outside seating I've seen customer bring their dogs.
(4)Maritza A.
It seems like they changed management for the worst, horrible customer service. 10 minutes to have someone ask if I need help and then another 10 minutes to have someone else ask if I've ordered. Decent food, and juices are still ok, but don't expect any free water . I will definitely not re-visit this place.
(2)Renee M.
Stopped here randomly and so glad we did! The juices are so fresh and delicious, I would definitely recommend coming here for that alone. However, we couldn't resist trying something off the menu so we ordered the falafel pita and it was sooo good. Again, it was just fresh and healthy. Would absolutely come back.
(4)Joe S.
Always looking for a good smoothie and Yelp brought me here. I ordered the BOS and would definitely recommend it. Fresh fruit and honey to sweeten, how can you go wrong. Service was good as well, server corrected me with a bit of an attitude because we pronounced something incorrectly but I wouldn't say that's to much of a big deal.
(4)Rudy N.
Love everything about this place, but stopped coming (and took away a star) because of the fish selection only being tilapia.. I think we all know tilapia does not count as 'fish' these days. Please get something like Mahi Mahi (something not genetically modified). We will pay more for it.. Or at least make it an option... Then we will be there everyday :p we are getting tired of eating Chipotle for lunch everyday.
(4)Rebecca B.
No frills, weird location by the railroad tracks in aventura but in my opinion the best. Everything is healthy and fresh,,their food and drinks are unique and it beats the heck out of Miami juice.
(5)sara f.
My favorite juice bar in Miami. Everything is healthy and tasty- portion sizes are large and easy to share. Employees are friendly and helpful. My favorite items are the Sweet & Sour juice, turkey and tuna wraps and the millionaire salad. Nom nom nom
(5)Anita G.
The place is super clean for what it is, a fast food place with healthy food. Service is a bit lost but friendly. Plenty if seating and parking available. I loved my juice which comes with ice (great for a hot day like today) but my falafel wrap was blah, I was excited about the falafel after the food reviews... But besides from that I will return for more juices, maybe not food...
(4)Hervin A.
Their Juices and smoothies are really great! Some of them are not vegan, so ask. The place is outdoors and it has a great vibe! Definitely recommend it
(5)Ghermay W.
Best juice and healthy food spot in north miami. Nothing fancy, you are not paying for overhead just goof.fresh delicious food. Great falafel is always a bonus and if you are under the weather, get the flue shot
(4)Jennie J.
I've been coming here since I was a kid-- fresh juice & smoothies with zero crap in them, what's not to love? Was happy to see their menu has expanded yet again but I stuck to my smoothies per usual-- more cooked foods than when they opened. Not kosher but a lot of "kosher style" options on the menu.
(5)Supa Dave D.
Nice little spot. Juice is fresh. Food is really good. Service is ehhh. They have no system implemented so when it gets packed they don't know who can first and who came fifth. I got skipped over twice by people that got there after me. Also, I had to ask for my tab like 3 times. If you are a patient person (unlike myself, maybe I need to up my yoga game) then this spot should be good for you. Either way, worth checking out if your not in a rush for lunch.
(3)Taylor S.
Terrible customer service. Waited at the bar for at least 10 minutes to be served without a word being said to me. Eventually moved to a table when my colleague arrived and still none of the wait staff noticed we were there. I ended up asking the table next to us if they had been served and they said the same thing. They even went up and asked for service and were told multiple times they would be with them in a moment and that they are very busy... Even though from our observation many of them were gathered behind the bar standing around not appearing to do anything but waiting for smoothie orders to be blended. We all ended up leaving. Most likely without them even noticing or probably caring.
(1)Lauren R.
Love the coffee\ peanut butter smoothie and the clean out juice! Fresh,clean facility and fast serivice
(5)Cathy V.
My favorite place by far for years now. It's gotten better and better as far as quality food goes. EVERYTHING is delicious. Small, quaint and laid back but always on point. Service can be a tad slow especially around lunchtime but other than that , this is my go to for breakfast, lunch, post workout or just to refuel .
(5)Priscilla R.
Food and Juices are AWESOME!
(4)Charlie P.
i came here several years ago, and remember it being exceptionally good. i'm back now and happy to see that hasn't changed. it's an odd location amongst auto repair shops, and technically in Ojus but on the edge of Aventura. you could drive past a hundred times without stopping, and you'd never know what you missed. if you did stop, you'd find friendly people serving fast yet excellent food. in a nutshell, they serve breakfast, lunch, juices and smoothies. i haven't sampled it all (yet), but so far so good. on this visit, i had the Popeye's omelet and a mango berry smoothie. try it - you won't be disappointed!
(5)Deniece K.
Great place to eat healthy. Great smoothie choices. Only the locals know about.... Different kinds of sauces for salads, sandwiches, etc.... Service is little slow
(4)Alex D.
Totally disappointed.... They attended me quick as soon as i sat down felt great,put my order in and waited exactly 48 minutes when people that was after me order and got their food first. Have a lot of patience but this was just bad when they realize my order was never placed in the kitchen after almost an hour! Follow up should be done if its been a considerable amount of time for the order.
(1)Almita P.
This place is too cute. I'm from out of town and found Miami Squeeze on yelp. I've been there twice in the last two days because it's so easy going and chill. The smoothies/juices are delicious and the staff are knowledgeable. In addition to good drinks made just the way you like it, they also serve food with clean, healthy and protein-packed choices. The orange and mint infused water was delicious too! No complaints. I'll be back a few more time while I'm still in town.
(5)Dina U.
Not really a fan of veggie burger... But I love theirs. They have lots if different fresh sauce they make themselves. Gotta try the garlic and jalapeño sauce combo, I love it!!
(4)Allyson M.
Food is awesome and healthy! Love this place, especially when it's beautiful out. Portions are great, prices are great. Great place overall!
(5)J W.
Best smoothies and organic sandwiches in North Miami ! This place is a hidden gem and a must try if you're in the area. Unfortunately, they are only open for breakfast & lunch and do not have indoor seating.
(4)Chad K.
The best food in aventura!! I go there at least twice a week for the amazing falafel and tasty shakes. We also order for the entire office and everyone in the office also loves them!
(5)John C.
Another favorite, great, fresh juice, wonderful Falafel, good service....just needs a little remodel, updating...I'm a regular here.
(4)Priscilla S.
I love the beach shack, chill vibe of this place. I really do...BUT I really don't like the service. I've been here twice and both times I had to stare creepily to get service and had to practically beg someone to take my money upon leaving. On my first trip I had a smoothie. Mango, coconut milk, honey and strawberries. I thought it was good but then realized the cup was pretty small for $5! I could have made this at home. On my second trip, I had the infamous falafel. We sat in the back and waited while listening to a guy on guitar play such tunes as "Hotel California". Not bad. We were served our falafels with 4 sauces, tahini (shouldn't it already be in my sandwich?), some spicy parsley mix and two others I can't remember. Before I took a bite my falafel fell apart. Ok, I guess that's why they gave us forks. The falafel balls were crispy and delicious but the fillings were nothing to write home about. I'll go so far as to say Aventura Pita on the other side of the tracks is WAY better, but lacks the cool factor this place offers.

Good smoothie place. The Miami Grass is delicious and refreshing. The falafel sandwich is good... Reminds me of vegetarian meatballs of sorts. Whenever I'm in the area I always stop by!

Great food and juices! My 7 year old son orders the liquid salad juice. It's great and so healthy! Their falafel is so fresh! Love this little spot. Come on a warm day though because they don't have much indoor seating.

I'm pretty sure they changed their name to miami squeeze, and miamisqueeze.com is the new website. I don't know why they changed the name or If they have new owners or when this happened, if anyone knows anything fill me in. Haven't been there in awhile but it's got a really chill atmosphere and great food and smoothies.

Best juice bar in the Aventura/ Miami area by far. Food is always Fresh and portions are great. They have everything from wheat grass shots even their own specialty drink called the Flu Shot if your feeling under the weather. Their smoothies and squeezed juices are literally the freshest around. I recommend their falafel platter or any of their salads. Miami has many juice bars that are over priced, But Miami squeeze you get more for your money and you get fresh. Highly recommend and I am a juice bar nut

FOUND A LONG HAIR IN MY SALAD!! Very dirty place. The food can be tasty but the kitchen ..............

Juice+salads with a Mediterranean inspiration.. Sit and the bar outside and make friends with your neighbor. This spot is laid back and the service could test your patience when you ask the cashier a couple of times to bring you more pita and then blank stares at you like you never ask her before... Kinda spacey maybe they get high on their own wheatgrass supply. Food was served fast and they have over 4 sauces to choose from to jazz your vegetables with.. Garlic tahini, dill tahini, ginger and something else that I obviously didn't care to try. There's not many healthy choices up north so this one makes my bucket list! Happy to have reconnect make to this spot I found over 10 years ago. Highly recommend if your around the area. Lots of clean food to choose from.

After coming across Fritty's review on the "What's Hot on Yelp" section of the iPhone app, I remembered that we've never been here despite living approximately a mile or two from its location. We pulled up around noonish to find the entire outside bar seating taken, and took up a bench in the front part of the restaurant. Although it was a typical hot and sticky afternoon, thankfully there were mist fans in full effect to help cool us off. We weren't planning on eating anything, but rather stopped in for a drink to cool us off. The menu is pretty extensive with a lot of choices for smoothies and custom juices (Jamba who?) but considering I had yet to have any caffeine, I opted for the Bananachino. It tasted exactly what one would assume; iced cappuccino with the added flavor and thickness of banana blended in. Yum! My boyfriend ordered the Raspberry Lemonade (freshly squeezed lemons, raspberries, and pineapple juices) but wasn't much of a fan. I took one sip and was in love. He isn't much of a fruit juice drinker, but if you love fruity concoctions that'll kick your taste buds into full gear, I recommend trying it out. Even though our first stop at the Big Squeeze was a short one, the service was very friendly and attentive. We'll definitely be back to try the food. For those looking for a good breakfast deal, they were offering: 2 eggs any style, turkey sausage, toast, and coffee for just $4.99! Though, I have a feeling the falafel is the route I'll be taking during our next visit. Some additional pros: - They deliver Mon - Sat 11am-3pm if you live close enough. - Buy 10 smoothies, get the next one free (ask for a smoothies card). - Dog friendly if you sit outside on the patio/garden area. (Technically giving 3.5 stars until I have the food)

Everything here is good. Some standouts include: ... the grape leaves, ... the liquid salad(don't ask, just order it), ... anything with hummus, ... the grilled chicken salad and, ... off course the Greek wrap. They also make VERY good tuna and chicken salad. They do get packed, it's in a weird location, not the cleaned place and tends to be slow. It is all well worth it.
(4)Scarlett W.
This place is pretty great. You can get so many different kinds of fresh juices and they taste amazing. It's super casual and has this feel of being in the Caribbean even though it is on an ugly road with mechanic shops all around. Don't let that deter you. Grab a stool and sit at the counter, nice people, excellent fresh and healthy food. The falafel looked good, I will try it next time. The whole wheat pita I had with my omelette was fresh and good. Popeye omelette, loaded with vegetables. You can eat a lot and not feel guilty.

Was in the mood for something healthy in the way of sustanence and thought I would check this place out. Was going to order a smoothie but opted for the liquid salad instead because it sounded intriguing. Also went for the falafal. Sat in back in the not very big dining area waiting for what seemed like a long time for the food, but maybe it was just because I was so hungry. My meal arrived and I pounced. It was very, very good. Liked the sauce that came with the falafal and was messy to eat. Felt a bit neglected with the service but it was a quality experience overall and I will probably be back to try something else from the menu selection.

Stopped by last Saturday. It was jumping with locals. Some guy was performing out front with his guitar. The music was a bit obnoxious, but I did enjoy the food and the overall laid-back vibe. They have a pretty decent variety of food with great options for vegans / vegetarians. I had a falafel wrap which did not come with a side, but was filling nonetheless. The wrap was kind of dry, but it did come with some sauces that I periodically poured onto it. I sampled a fruit smoothie, which was decent. The water they served was flavored (orange?); an unexpected surprise as I never drank flavored "water" before and can now see the appeal. The prices here are unbeatable. Great quality food, all healthy, all affordable. If I had to pick something about Big Squeeze that I didn't like, it would be the service. I sat in the back where the tables were at, and I rarely saw my server. Even though I had to actively seek her out at the end to pay my bill, I didn't let it get to me. I still had a great experience. Oh, and this place is located right next to the train tracks... lol it can get loud. But I like trains, so I was thoroughly amused when one made an appearance.
(4)Ray M.
Awesome, fresh-juice concoctions, and a plethora of different wraps and sandwiches make this joint a no brainer for a quick bite or a fresh squeezed juice fix! During my last visit I had their chicken and fafel gyro with a generous smothering of their chickpea/ tatziki sauce...OMG! a must-try if you're in the neighborhood. Service is quick and friendly and food quality is consistently good.

If more places were like this I'd easily become a vegetarian. Broad selection of dishes, not everything was vegan, but the vegetarian selections just seemed so appetizing I had to try. Food was good, smoothies great as well and service on point for an outdoor patio style dining experience. All in all I was pleasantly pleased and I will return without a doubt when in Aventura area.
(4)Bennett R.
I like Big Squeeze. Casual, healthy, low key. Tons of fresh fruit and veggie juices and smoothies, sandwiches, paninis, and platters. Lots of vegetarian options, they also serve lighter meats - turkey burgers, cold cuts, and shwarma. Middle easternish with a Caribbean slant. Good, fresh, healthy alternative for lunch. The jalapeño sauce is great on anything. It caters heavily to vegetarians, but most omnivores will do just fine too.
(4)Natalia G.
I like the chill outdoor feel and picnic tables - if it's a nice day, this can't be beat for a laid back brunch. Smoothies are good (raspberry lemonade was bomb) and while the food is not out of this world, I don't expect gourmet cuisine if it's served to me in a clear plastic bowl. I'd even consider bumping this rating to a 3.5 because they have lots of homemade sauces upon request.

Why did I think this place was called Miami Squeeze? Too much Miami Vice in my younger days I guess. This place has been here since I moved to Miami over 12 years ago. Its my first time trying it out. Its lunchtime and I'm not mad hungry. My date is though. He's starving, but he always is. He's got one of those metabolisms that eats every two or three hours and never puts on weight. We get there about 1:10, park in the back (there is some parking in behind the building if the spots out front are all taken). The counter is pretty much taken up with people so I go to a waitress and tell her I'm taking a couple of menus and sitting in the back area. Quick look at the menu and we know we are ordering the falafel app. and Rosemary Chicken Panini. And then we wait. And wait. Finally the waitress appears and we put in our order. The falafel arrives and it is awesome. I'm loving it as my new falafel place. It goes great with the tahini/garlicy sauce in one of five bottles of sauce which were deposited on the table. As a matter of fact, it goes great with each and every sauce/dressing and a mixture of sauces and even on its own. Its served with a fluffy pita split in two (Aarons pita I'm guessing). And then our Rosemary chicken panini arrives, only it doesn't. There's no chicken and its not what we ordered at all, only the waitress has disappeared and is nowhere to be found. So I walk it over to the counter and tell the first person I find that its not what we ordered and can we please just have another falafel app because its so late and I'm going to be late back to work. The second order of falafel arrives and we eat it and no sign of our waitress. Walk up to the counter and ask for the check. More waiting. Hello please can I give you my money!! The food is great - the falafel is five stars. The service is very sketch despite their having at least four people there behind the counter and not a lot of people sitting at tables. Perhaps if you sit at the actual counter the service may be faster. I think that's what I'll do next time, because there will be a next time for the food. For ambiance, think Le Tub - nothing fancy. Your sitting in an outdoor patio area between the railway and West Dixie Highway.

Awesome, chill spot. best falafal samich and the best fu#$in strawberry lemonade. Have no complaints about this place.

Good stop for smoothies and salads. Watch out for train. We found this little gem just in time for a late lunch. There is a good variety of smoothies here, and the two we picked were very good. I ate a salad, of which they had a ton of different kinds to choose from, and Hemi's mom ate a Panini, which she says was yummy. The portions of my salad was generous; I had some trouble finishing all of it. There is a train that runs right behind the location, which I could see make conversation difficult, but only one passed while we were there, and actually we both enjoyed watching it go by. Overall, I enjoyed the atmosphere and loved the food.
(4)Ric S.
I had a very good vegetarian platter (falafels, stuffed grape leaves, humus, and salad) from Big Squeeze. Everything was very flavorful, fresh, and the service was great. Their coffee iced drink is also delish!

MY GOODNESS THIS PLACE IS A LIVING PARADISE. I AM THE PICKIEST EATER YOU WILL EVER MEET BUT I HAD A HUGE FOODGASM HERE. *** PLEASE GO TO THEIR WEBSITE TO VIEW THEIR MENU..THEY HAVE TAKE OUT & YOU CAN ORDER ONLINE!*** juiceatery.com ok, anything, i mean ANYTHING you pick on the menu will turn out good. my BFF said the falafel is the best and I've never had it but i tried it and boy, was it heavenly! the food isnt pricy and its healthy...although it caters to the vegetarians...THIS PLACE SERVES MEAT. I REPEAT, THIS PLACE SERVES MEAT. awesome, huh? i ABSOLUTELY love this place and the ambiance is very hut-like. the place is very laid back. I had to ask for the waitress to come by but no worries! very nice staff and the food makes up for it. don't come here for romance or business lunches...this is a place to go for brunch, breakfast, or lunch and sit and talk for hours with your bff or whoever you feel like sitting in front of and munching on good food with! OH AND BEST PART...YOU WILL FEEL LIKE YOU HELPED YOUR BODY OUT BY EATING THIS FOOD. Very healthy, hearty food. It's really hard to find food that is delicious as well as healthy and good for you. Glad this place exists! __________________________________________________ official review::: Hungry but can't decide what you want? In need of a smoothie or wheatgrass shot or pineapple-strawberry lemonade or all three to quench your thirst?? Well here's a suggestion with a selection - tucked between the train tracks and West Dixie near Aventura is a hidden gem called the Big Squeeze which boasts a massive menu of healthy goodness. A brief run-down of the sections: Breakfast (served 'til noon), Starters and Sides, Sandwiches, Hot and Cold Wraps, Melts, Platters, Salads, Specials and more. I had a huge pita sandwich with a big ol' slab of grilled tofu and my companion had a yummy falafel salad with tahini dressing. Happily, they're one of those places that realizes the importance of delicious dips and sauces in vegetarian eating and they offer several options (and for the flesh-eaters they do offer lean chicken and fish). Then there is the ginormous selection of fresh-pressed juices and whole fruit smoothies. You can sit on their nice patio or just walk up to their diner counter. I really wish this place was closer to my house, but I try to hit it up whenever I'm in the area. For those of you lucky enough to live nearby, they even deliver.

Great atmosphere, and very friendly staff many times they give you free shots of wheat grass, or what ever is available for that time. They have fans with a water breeze to cool you down so you do not feel the heat outside. Highly recomend the Falafel it taste better then anny middle eastern falafel. Well worth going

place used to be good a few years back..been twice in the last year and both times food was horrible..even the smoothies are brutal. Possibly the worst restaurant in the area

The food is ok, service is slow and terrible. The juices and smoothies are great.

If there was an option for no starts, I would choose that. I stopped in for a quick lunch in between meetings and I was highly disappointed. I have been before, both eating in, the counter and take out and all was good... Maybe there are new managers? I wanted to sit at the counter and as I was sitting down the waitress told me to sit inside... Not what I wanted. She then went back and forth a few times before coming to take my order. After she took my order, she then took another tables order... It was obvious I was in a hurry, she should have put my order in and then come back. My sandwich was brought to me (a turkey pita) and I could not have been more disappointed. For a place that is supposed to have FRESH food... It was no more than Oscar Meyer slimy processed turkey. I wouldn't even buy that turkey at a store... It was gross, slimy and not what I would expect. I ate (because I had no time to stop somewhere else) and had to go back up to the counter so I could get my check. Again, the waitress did a million things before my check was brought and then when it did arrive, I asked for a pen. She told me that the pen was inside the folder and I assured her it was not and it was in her hand... Not a good experience, not a good lunch and I won't be going back.

I mostly come here to not die from a chicken wing overdose or after a meal that i know did absolutely nothing for me. Liquid Salad is my "go-to" since its pretty nutritious and Popeye's Omelette is my favorite breakfast. I've been coming here for about a year now at least twice a month and I've never had a problem with service or food. Never a bad vibe, never a bad meal. Only negative I see if that there's no AC since its outside. But if you can't handle the heat then do yourself a favor and move somewhere that's not Miami.
(4)Dolly D.
This is my go-to place when I want good, healthy food options. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because sometimes they get my order wrong. But they're nice, the ambiance feels like you're in key west and the children get a kick out of the train when it passes through. The live music on the weekends is cool too. Overall great place!

Get away from the hustle and bustle that is Biscayne Blvd in Aventura and drive across the railroad tracks to West Dixie Highway and you'll find this juice stand that's been a fixture in the community for over 25 years. Grab a bar stool and pony up to the counter and order lunch. Yes, lunch. it's not just a juice stand. The menu's got sandwiches, panini's, salads, felafels, wraps, etc It would be nice if they served cold beer, but you can't have everything. This place gets kinda busy too, even on the warmer summer day's. If you're in work dud's and end up there on a summer day, you may want to order to-go because you'll get pretty hot sweaty sitting out there in the middle of the day. But an excellent lunch choice on one of the more milder days.
