    Larkey is a great guy, and always has a smile on his face. I always get my smoothie here to start my day and he always makes the start to my day better. I love this place I’ll be coming back every morning!

    The gentleman working tonight is not very considerate of his customers. I came in for a smoothie and everything apparently was a problem for him. Ick. His attitude with every guest was the same, disdainful and rude. He was short with me and everyone I saw who ordered after me. He cited that it was hard to hear me. Why wouldn't you turn the music down then? Because it sure seemed to be the problem with every person after if that's the case. Update: his name appears to be Larkey according to my receipt. I'm very disappointed by the lack of service here when he clearly is praised in the comments below.

    Upon arrival the atmosphere & establishment was very clean and therapeutic. Larkey was the young man to assist me. He was very helpful & informative & seem to really enjoy what he do. This was my very first time visiting any Tropical Smoothie & I was 100% not disappointed. Thanks Mr. Larkey my smoothie was amazing & my Caribbean Jerk Wrap was an explosion of taste. I will DEFINITELY be returning to this specific location!

    This place has great menu options and food. The problem is the odor in the restaurant. I have been to several locations, and it persists from location to location. It seems they need sanitizing elements for the tools, and cleaning the restaurant. The vegetables, particularly the lettuce, brown and whittled. The blender containers are rinsed instead of properly sanitized, you can taste other flavors from previous orders.I hope they improve, until then, I can't eat at the chain. The smell is bad.
