  ordered my smoothie online, watermelon mojito w mango. showed up and the smoothie with my name on it was BLUE. asked if that looked right and the two young women there seemed stoned and confused. i pointed out that another order looked like a watermelon smoothie but was labelled as "sunrise smoothie, sub blueberries for pineapple", and proposed that maybe the 2 smoothies were mixed up. long nails girl just shook her head, threw the blue smoothie in the trash, and started remaking one while the apparent supervisor just started trying to comprehend the confusion, reading labels and seeming just lost. I explained that she'd already trashed my original smoothie and receipt, and then long nails girl started digging in the trash WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF PREPARING MY REPLACEMENT. SHE DID NOT WASH HER HANDS, long fingernails and all. bad enough to mess up the online order, but the utter lack of functional cognition after the fact was absurd.

  Smoothie tasted fine, but waited for an hour (ordered 12:20, received 1:20) for a single sandwich. When I did get it, it was warm on the outside and cold on the inside. The kids were working hard, but no organization. They had LOTS of orders sitting around but had no idea who they all belonged to (they admitted that - see pic). Find another location.

  Brand-new location, but run by kids. There's only one actual adult who works there and the other employees are either literally kids or just act like kids who would MUCH rather be doing something other than working for money. Overall, the kids who work here just need more training and an adult in a supervisory role. For example, they don't like making eye contact, they sometimes don't offer you a receipt, they don't ask your name for the order, they get the order mixed up, they don't fully blend the smoothies so there's like three whole dates in the bottom, etc. Some of the employees don't know how to run coupons, some are just rude, etc. On the other hand, the smoothies are good (but mostly ice), the food is great, and some of the employees are awesome. It's just rough around the edges. On a third hand (if you're a mutant), the prices are astronomical. Like $7.45 for a smoothie? About the same price for a flatbread that's as tiny as a baby's hand? That's insane. I could probably make at least five similar smoothies in my Vitamix for the same price, especially since ice and banana are the main components. The smoothies are also EXTREMELY sugary, so be sure to order without turbinado, which is just another name for natural sugar, aka sucrose, aka SUGAR. I go there a lot because I have coupons. Once the coupons expire (tomorrow), there's no way I'll be going there again because it's just not a good value for the money. If they offered new coupons again, then yes, I'd definitely go back.
