Amazing customer service! But these ladies deserve the ability to collect some tip money Mrs. Owner.
Great food and delicious smoothies and customer service is amazing! Better than any bar, restaurant or any other smoothie place. But they’re not allowed to collect tips?! Crazy. One of the registers allows a tip, but it doesn’t even go to them!
Maybe if you took care of their pay/tips a little better you wouldn’t have to hire new people every month. Allow the tips!!!

Sat in the drive through for over 20 minutes when there was only one other car in line, I only ordered a buffalo chicken wrap and a quesadilla, finally got my food and pulled up in a parking spot to eat it and my food was COLD, the cheese wasn’t even melted on either of the items I got, I pulled back through the drive through while it was pouring rain and my toddler in the back seat and sat there another 20 minutes for them to fix it and I gave them the old order back that was cold and they gave me another order and then I drive away with the “warmed up” food and when I opened it, it was STILL WRONG. Not even the right order at that point. Will not be back.

Something has changed at this location because the food has become inedible. I received a salad with brown slimy rotting lettuce. I called and was promised a refund weeks ago by the manager and never received it.
Recently I order a smoothie that had chunks of full pieces of ice in it, atleast 6 full pieces of ice, making it impossible to drink through a straw. I had to reblend it at home myself.
They are unresponsive and do not care about the service or food they provide. I’m guessing a bad review will make them respond since that’s probably the only thing this place cares about.
Just avoid!
