  The posted business hours say closing is at 9:00 PM, but that hasn’t been my experience. My mom and I arrived around 8:40 PM and found the doors already locked. While outside, I could hear an employee expressing frustration about customers arriving late before walking away from the front. Another staff member then came out and told us they close at 8:40 PM. This was confusing, especially since online ordering was still available until 8:45 PM. Clear and consistent communication of hours would really improve the customer experience. I also took a photo with timestamp but google doesn’t give me an option to post the photo.

  Always welcoming when I come in. Staff says good morning/afternoon. I never have to wait long and everything is made fresh. No fruit syrups. All real ingredients. The staff enjoy their job and have great customer service. Come and enjoy any time of the day.

  I would give zero stars if I could, but unfortunately, in order to leave a review and to share my experience, I have to put at least one star. I had an extremely disappointing and humiliating experience at Tropical Smoothie that I feel others should be aware of. I placed an order, picked up my food, and then went to use the restroom. When I came out, the cashier (Indian girl) loudly confronted me in front of other customers, saying, “Excuse me, did you purchase anything? You cannot use our bathroom unless you purchased something.” This was incredibly embarrassing, especially considering I had just ordered from there. Being called out publicly like that—while other customers were ordering and watching—was completely disrespectful and unprofessional. I am a business woman in the area and have frequented this location before, but after this experience, I will never return. You should never treat your customers this way. I understand having a sign posted and not wanting people who are not purchasing items to use the restroom, but to have your staff trained to yell at customers to confirm this is ridiculous. I’ve never seen such poor management and poor training. You need to train your staff better and hold a meeting to ensure this does not happen again, because this is completely unacceptable. What made it worse was the explanation: the cashier (Indian girl) said her boss requires staff to verify that anyone using the restroom has made a purchase, or they could get in trouble. Even if that is store policy, there is a respectful and discreet way to handle it. Yelling at a paying customer in front of others is absolutely not acceptable. I left feeling embarrassed, humiliated, and so uncomfortable that I ended up throwing away the food I had just bought because I didn’t even want to sit there and eat anymore. This was one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever had. I strongly encourage others to think twice about supporting a place that treats customers this way. No one should be made to feel this disrespected - especially after already paying for their food. Do better.

  Very clean atmosphere and very helpful staff! I thought my drink tasted differently than i’m used to and asked a friend to have them remake it for me and Om didn’t hesitate to make it again! I’m typically not the type of person to send something back but they made me feel extremely comfortable and satisfied by the end of the interaction! Couldn’t recommend a location more. 5/5

  Went once and won’t go back. Sanitation score was 93 and I could see why… trash was over flowing.. no one was even in the restaurant and it took a good five minutes for someone to greet me. When I asked how the person that was ringing me up was doing I got no response, so maybe they were having a bad day. Regardless, customer service is what’s gonna bring me back to a restaurant and I got zero here. So def won’t be returning.
