I love their food and smoothies.
With that being said, I just ordered a salad that turned out to have a dead and partially smooshed fly attached to the shredded carrots.
In terms of their smoothies, certain smoothies tend to not get blended enough for their contents to fit through the straw which results in an occasionally undrinkable drink until the blockage is cleared (often multiple times for that smoothie). A few times around March, I swear I had a smoothie or two that had a dirt-like after taste. Although, not recently.
Most of the time they don't supply the salads with plastic utensils, or even put in napkins. If they do put in a napkin it is literally 1 napkin. The bowls, on the other hand, tend to always come with spoons.
The staff are generally very friendly and polite.
Most of the time, their food is pretty good and bug free, how the staff treats you is typically phenomenal, and the atmosphere is always nice.
