"Miracle Mile" of Forest Hills, Austin Street, with its health clubs, restaurants, fast food, clothing, jewelry, books, and you-name-it assortment of shops, needed one more thing. RIPE Juice Bar & Grill filled the niche, a cozy, colorful, health food gem with an impressive menu, balcony seating and reasonable prices.
Go breakfast simple, top brand only, creamy, honey-oatmeal with fruit or a lunchtime Turkey burger on 7 grain bread, lettuce, tomato, onion and a choice of 5 sides. Try a complex dinner with possibilities that include Hawaiian, Greek, Paisan and South of the Border.

RIPE's modest space still boasts a large kitchen. "When you believe in something good, well, it's a great feeling to go to work," owner Peter Kambitsis motions, "I pick out fish at the market, myself. When I cut a strip of fresh tuna, it looks just like Sushi. Everything is fresh and healthy, large portions. Many of my customers are fitness trainers."
