I got like 5 add on in my order, I spent like 20 dollars on a shake and they didn't put a single add in it. Then got mad when I asked it to be remade

This place used to be my Go to smoothie place but nowadays the workers always fight while I’m trying to order and then they talk to me like I did something. Terrible service and atmosphere but the food is amazing.

I had the chicken pesto flatbread and an Island Green with energizer. It came out so fast and hot! The young man Dominique greeted me when I arrived which was awesome.

Came here a few weeks ago and they got my order very wrong. Had to drive all the way back here for a replacement and they were very dismissive, telling me they didnt remember me, every though I had a receipt.
Came here today and waited a bit at the counter for them to just stare at me and no one take my order. Then a ping sounded and they all groaned loudly and someone came up and said can I help you? I started ordering a thai chicken wrap and the girl interrupted me and said you're gonna be waiting. I asked her what she meant and she was like well we just got a big order. I didn't really know how to answer and said okay, but I was there long before their big order came in.
I waited quite a bit watching the staff just stand around. The girl was super dismissive and rude and I don't think I'll be coming back.
