Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Healthy option cabinet fresh salads and a range of juices and smoothies available. The friendliest and happiest staff in Tauranga! Ideal for eat in or take out options. Lovely small courtyard around the back or tables available inside for eat in.

My friend and I enjoyed salad and soup on a cold winter day and it was so good - spicy and delicious. Lots of options for soup (although they were running low as so popular!) and salad, and sizes, to choose from! Some seating inside...and ample seating outside. Neat friendly vibe and lovely staff. Can't wait to come back and try the juice and smoothies.More

There is still a variety of salads but they have become skimpier with the dressing, they taste diluted and don't seem to pack as much flavour as they once did. Be careful when picking the caesar you don't end up with a container of lettuce....I stopped going because this kept happening. The beef noodle I got one slither of beef. If they could ensure that you actually got all of the salad and the dressings were amped up a bit in flavour I would go back. Good soups & smoothies.More

When I think of Tauranga, my tastebuds flutter. Pluto's juices.. smoothies.. soups... salads. All fresh and changing. And such a sparkling clean and cheery place. I've always thought that 'takeaway' food does not have to be stodgy. So when visiting TGA, I could leave Pluto...feeling comfortably full and virtuously 'nourished' on good really tasty food. So Pluto ticks all the boxes for me. I fill my box from an eye-catching selection of salad platters, or wrap cold fingers around a hearty soup. Mmmmmm. So especially when travelling, as a 'regular' nourishing diet is sometimes difficult to achieve, I always recommend at least one meal at Pluto... though it's so scrumptious your memory will take you back.. like me! So for food 'on the run' or a table to watch the passersby .. this place is a tastebud treat.More

A small, clean, modern eatery with a good range of smoothies and freshly made fruit and vegetable juices, and hot soups. Prices are reasonable and on-par with other chain juice outlets. They also sell a range of salads, though we arrived later in the day...as they were closing up so I can't comment on the range or taste of those. Staff were friendly and helpful and our juice was prepared quickly.More

This is great alternative to the lunch time takeaway. Their soups are delicious and always a great variety of choices; same goes for the salads, you can mix and match to your liking, all with great dressings. If you like they also have a great...choice in the normal lunch time fare.More

Pluto experience is only found in Tauranga, it's fresh, energizing, and a menu that will appeal to anyone with taste for the best of life. Victoria and her staff are keen to source the best ingredients for their unique smoothies, massive selection of pastas and...salads. Exceptional quality and perfect for a quick workday lunch or to take on a picnic, to the beach or on your boat. Their pastas and salads are a perfect addition to round out your BBQ and to pop into the school lunch box! Pluto makes delicious daily soups with fresh baked bread too. We have loved all of our choices from juices to salads, its a pleasure to have so many choices everyday. WAY beyond expectations for a juice bar. Today we ordered the beetroot with carrot salad, the couscous salad with capsicum and the curry chick peas and a custom smoothie. What a refreshing, nutritional tasty feast that is spot on perfect as always. Love yourself and fuel up at Pluto.More

I eat here probably 2-3 times per week and highly recommend the pumpkin or vege soup - they are moorish and delicious. My friend goes for the beef Thai noodle salad and never tires of it. In the summer the juices are just right to...quench your thirst. Recommend for something a little healthier with great service!More

Whenever I am in Tauranga I make a special point of going to Plutos to get a couple of salads which I take home for dinner. There's good choices and value for money is excellent. sometimes there's enough to last for two meals. The ladies...in the shop are very pleasant and friendly.More
