- JCJM Arizmendi CintronNov 14, 20251.0Friday nov.14.2025 at 7:55 pm lights off and a trash can in the drive through even though online it says they are open until 9pm
- LTLuke ThornburgNov 12, 20255.0The building caught fire and is heavily damaged. This location may never open again after just a few years of operation. This was a nice cafe when it was open.
- SSStingraySep 13, 20251.0I have been coming to this location since it opened. I always get the chicken Thai wrap. Due to being away for work, it has been a few months since I was here. I got the wrap yesterday and could not believe my eyes. It is so much smaller as to be shocking. It used to be a good-sized tortilla filled with chicken, etc. Now it is a smaller tortilla and much, much skinnier. Of course, the price has gone up. Raise the prices if you must. I understand that as everything costs more. But don't insult your customers by making something ridiculously smaller. Sadly, won't be back.
- CLCouple’s Moving LLCJul 30, 20255.0While unloading our clients truck in Tucson. We got our smoothies at this location. It was clean and great environment. Drinks were great like always.
- JJJonathanJul 21, 20251.0Came here on Saturday night around 8:25, All of the front lights were already off, but I was sure it said online they close at nine. We decided to go to the drive-through to see if anyone would answer, After a minute, a girl did and when we asked for a few minutes to look at the menu, she screamed “huh”. All of us could tell she was annoyed that she actually had to work, After we placed our order, we could hear her say on the microphone sarcastically , “ Imagine coming in before closing”. I don’t want to be a jerk as my family owns Restaurants, I know how it is when customers come in the last minute, but I would think that over 30 minutes before they close was reasonable. The food was decent, but it was sad to see poor employees treating customers that way. She would not have lasted two weeks working for me. The girls name was Desiree F as written on our receipt
