My smoothie was so thick I had trouble even eating w a spoon. Not at all satisfied. First time this has happened at this restaurant. Smoothies are not cheap. Not happy, however, both sandwiches were great!!
Should o go here again?

I ordered a few smoothies and while waiting for my order I saw one of the workers lick his fingers and not wash his hands after some of the smoothie dripped onto his hands . I needed extra kid cups for my kids and when he handed it to me (after licking his fingers and not washing his hands), I saw some of his saliva on the cups that he touched. Icing on the cake, I’m pretty sure he was sick because as I was walking out his coworker asked him how he was feeling on a scale of 1-10, and after he replied she asked if he wanted to go home.
