- CAChantel Akers3 days ago1.0This place is better in the day time. A guy with a scar on his face tired to over charge me for a smoothie. I looked at him and said that isn’t right and then he changed the price to the right amount. I made sure I used my points after he tired to cheat me. Not cool.
- MMMargé5 days ago1.0I ordered for delivery and when I received my food it had written in the box “tip your driver!!” I find that extremely rude. The employees have no idea if I tipped in cash or not or after my delivery! and it’s not their business!! What I do with my money is MY business not theirs. It’s very unprofessional! I know it was the employees who did it because they wrote on my bag the order number and my bad was sealed when delivered.
- JOJay O'NealDec 2, 20251.0They literally have NOTHING IN STOCK & their CUSTOMER SERVICE IS DRY ASH!!! Its EVIDENT that the people working their hate their jobs and granted no one goes to work elated to be there but as an adult i dont show that dissatisfaction on my face. Plain and simple this location is miserable. I truly didn’t even order anything and walked out! I am big on energy and with the miserable energy those young ladies had id rather any day!!
- CZCaspar ZhouNov 18, 20251.0Don’t get an acai bowl here. Not only is it $12 for a generally small portion, but the base is frozen. Its been thawing out for 20 minutes, which I found was weird when I see other reviews of full on smooth base where you can mix in the fruits and the granola. I guess we need it frozen because its going to melt quick in 60 degree weather
- JBJohn BrijeskiOct 9, 20255.0Nice clean place. Delicious açaí berry smoothie! A bit pricey but seems worth it.
