    Super bummed out. Just left and ordered a Cherry slush. He hands it to me while he charges me. It was pink and white which was odd. I take a sip and its basically ice. I get these all the time so I ask the guy charging me if he can add more syrup so it actually tastes good. I watch him takes someone's order while holding my drink after telling of course. Then without adding any syrup hands me back my slush of ice no extra syrup acting like he added it. I knew he hadnt as the syrup was in your eyes view that he never went over too. Not to mention it still tasted like nasty crushed iced with a slight cherry flavor. I threw it away it was so gross. Don't go to this location what a waste of money and horrible service. 😒
