    The worst side for our wraps which were bananas and they are so tiny, that it's a crying shame, unbelievable they would serve this too there customers.

    Staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, but I went out of my way to visit this location and I won’t be doing that again. They were out of key menu items (like chocolate for smoothies and most chip selections) and the bathroom was out-of-order during my visit.

    The açaí bowls were tasty, but unfortunately, the overall cleanliness of the shop left a lot to be desired. All three of our bowls were extremely sticky, and there were no napkins or paper towels available in the customer area—not even in the restrooms. We had to come up front and ask for them. The tables were also dirty, and the front door was covered in fingerprints. Given how sticky our bowls were and the lack of basic cleaning supplies for customers, it’s not surprising that everything felt grimy. When I politely informed an employee that the restroom was out of paper towels, the response was noticeably unfriendly. We were the only customers in the store at the time, and while there were several staff members present, no one seemed to be concerned with cleanliness. It’s disappointing, especially when the food itself was good.
