    This place is weird. 1. When I first got there, a customer in front of me in line was having trouble with her app on her phone. Instead of calling a manager or someone over to help her with it, the cashier just let her keep looking at it until she finally gave up and ordered without it. A guy watched all of this happen at the other register, but he didn't offer to take anyone's order in the meantime, and then he just walked away. 2. I finally place my order and wait for them to make it, which didn't seem like it should take too long since there were 5 young women in the front kitchen area. Unfortunately only 2 were actually working or making any food. The other 3 were standing in the corner, giggling and gossiping. Maybe they were all on break, but it seemed odd to me that they would all take their breaks at the same time and break in the kitchen area in front of customers. If they weren't actually on break, they were giving some serious mean girl energy to the people who were ACTUALLY working. 3. I saw fresh bananas, but by the time I got home and looked in my bag, this is what they gave me. Gross. I'm not sure who is "managing" this place, but it's clear to me that they do not know what they're doing. Central Avenue is way better. Not going back here.

    Portion size was a lot smaller than other locations and for some reason a dollar more. Don’t plan on returning
