Came into this location today and couldn’t get any help from the employees. They were focused on cleaning and didn’t seem interested in assisting customers. One was cleaning while the other was in the restroom. On top of that, strong cleaning chemicals were being used—this should be done after closing. Customers shouldn’t have to inhale chemicals while shopping. This is crazy.

The offer in the app was good and enticing. I tried the Caribbean jerk chicken burrito for the first time. The suggestion of the Pomegranate Plunge by Kai, the cashier, was very good and delicious.
