We ordered a smoothie bowl and the smoothie part was completely frozen it took thirty minutes to thaw so it could be mixed and then eaten then after all that hard work it wasn’t even that good.

I think the photo speaks for itself.. and this isn’t even what I ordered. I ordered the chicken quesadilla and received a tortilla with basically nothing in it. The receipt says cheese quesadilla, so they had my order wrong, but even so, this is the worst food I’ve ever paid for in my entire life. There’s literally nothing inside of it. The only cheese that came in it was spilling out the side and stuck to the paper. The entire quesadilla was stuck to the paper and had paper chunks all over it. Completely inedible. Not to mention every experience I’ve had here, the workers are not friendly. I have never even wrote a review before for any restaurant, because I’m not ever one to complain. Everyone has bad days or makes mistakes sometimes. I just can’t believe someone would make a quesadilla that bad and then give it to a paying customer. I’ve had a couple of bad experiences here, wait times being 15-20 minutes and unfriendly employees but this time was by far the worst. I would’ve turned around and got my money back if I wasn’t already 15 minutes away before I decided to open the box.
