This is a hidden gem! The staff Tianna & Sandy that served us while we were visiting were so good! We stayed at the Holiday Inn Lakeshorel nearby and discovered this place on day 1 with their amazing fresh smoothies & Dubai treats are to die for! We literally would come in twice someday! A definite go to if you are just visiting or a local

Had a great experience at Green Nest! Food and smoothies were fantastic, and especially outstanding customer service from Sandy!! She made for a welcoming environment and great restaurant atmosphere. Bonus points for Taylor Swift playing, lending a phone charger, and allowing us to try some samples!!

I always come here post-workout for a smoothie. Sandy is usually there and every time I see her she is extremely welcoming, kind, and always quick and attentive. Today she offered me a free sample of their soft serve ice cream while waiting for my smoothie. Love it here and will always come back!

We had a fantastic experience at this place! The customer service was outstanding, especially Sandy, who really went above and beyond to make our visit special. Her attention to detail and friendly attitude truly made a difference. The atmosphere was amazing, creating the perfect environment for a relaxed meal. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they’re open late, which was perfect for getting the kids a healthy, late-night meal. The bowls we ordered were absolutely delicious — fresh and full of flavor. And the kids couldn’t stop raving about the milkshakes! They were a big hit and definitely a treat to finish off the meal. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great food, top-notch service, and a welcoming vibe. We’ll definitely be back!

Sandy was exceptional at the store. She smiled and worked efficiently. The food was amazing. I had the avocado egg wrap. I was able to try two little treats . The Dubai dates are top notch with full flavour. We will be back again..

We tried the Lazy Cat cake and Dubai Strawberry Cup, and both were amazing! The staff added brownie to the Dubai cup just as we asked, and it turned out perfect so much kunafa, rich chocolate flavor, and really satisfying. The Lazy Cat was equally delicious, with generous quantity and great taste. Definitely worth trying if you want something indulgent and unique!

Brought my kids to Green Nest for Dubai Strawberry Cups ($8.99 each) and a smoothie ($8.49 each). Service was great, desserts were great, ambiance was great. Staff even came to our table and offered us ice cream samples, which was super sweet. I especially liked the fact that the debit machine DIDN’T give you the tip option. Will be back!
