Ordered online on Thursday during my lunch break . Received my sandwich without lettuce and ranch so I went back to the store and they informed me that they were out of
Lettuce . Whatever I go back to work but then my smoothie had the same consistency as water so I took it back . One of the workers gave me a number to call because they couldn’t give me a refund. Spoke to the manager and he said he will process my refund in a hour. He never did. When I called back on Saturday he never got back to me. 0 customer service and for a place with food cue cards you’d think it would be better and the service sucks

Avocolada me please 🥤 it was delicious, seemed to be added sweetener but if they honestly used natural products they nailed it. Then add on a jerk wrap and street corn you have yourself a lightweight tasty winner 😋 . The atmosphere was clean including the restroom and the staff was very friendly. Great job guys 👏🏾. Stopped in for lunch and they did not disappoint.

A sign should have been posted. I ordered the Acai bowl without blueberries because they make my tongue sore. I asked for pineapples instead. This was not my first time ordering this. The receipt would normally reflect a substitute had been made, and the cost was the same as posted. A couple of weeks ago when I ordered it, I was charged extra and told that you do not substitute anymore. I was still being charged for the blueberries even though they were not going to put them in the bowl, and extra for the pineapples. I then asked that the blueberries be placed in a separate container , and I would give them to someone that could eat them, since I was paying for them. A sign should have been posted saying that substitutes were no longer allowed if that is the policy. I have not been back since that experience.

Customer service needs improvement! Waited 10mins no acknowledgment or assistance until I inquired about my online order. I was not aware of the pick up area. Had someone greeted me upon entrance and asked if I needed any assistance I’d have a better review. I even thanked them and said have a nice day and no one responded. Kind of rude! Workers seemed unenthusiastic about working there.
