8pm stop for a feta spinach egg wrap, acai bowl, and whatever the oatmeal granola and blueberries bowl. Place was CLEAN and it was ready in a jiffy. DELICIOUS. 😃

I had a negative experience at this establishment, while ordering our order was put in wrong and then the cashier Santil was very rude about it when I was willing to pay the difference. Please coach this individual on proper customer service etiquette to avoid future customer abrasion

I arrived at exactly 8:50 PM. As soon as I parked, the employees immediately turned off the “Open” sign, and I noticed the front door was already locked. This reflects very poor customer service. From my understanding, management allows this to happen regularly. It feels as though the employees are running the store without regard for customers, which is just unacceptable.

Me and my boyfriend went to get açaí bowls before 8 pm today and the cashier that took our order was very rude. He was the tattooed guy with a black shirt not sure what his name was. He didn’t even greet us or asked us what we wanted to order. He obviously looked very upset which we don’t understand why. There were other customers inside waiting. He nicely went up to them and gave them their orders. He did not do that for us. It was a very unpleasant experience. I’m not sure I want to come back to this place.

This was my first time coming in to Tropical Smoothie and it was highly disappointing and unwelcoming. The man with the blonde hair in a ponytail seemed like we were an inconvenience despite how empty the cafe was. When taking the order he didn't even greet he just looked straight into your eyes with no words being said...weird. We asked for two acai bowls and he said they were out and didnt give us any other recommendations and it seemed like he intended us to leave, which we did. I just know anything I would have gotten would be made to not its standard due to his actions already being lacked in basic interactions. I work in food industry and I know it can be tough but its not impossible to do your job
