    This location isn't as good as the one near me in Conway. We've tried this location twice and both times were a disappointment. They got the orders wrong, the smoothies didn't taste right, and the last time I ordered there, the kale apple slaw tasted like it had turned. The people at the Conway location are always friendly, but this girl at this location looked like this was the absolute last place she wanted to be.
