Amari & Jolie was remarkable. They were friendly, respectful. My sandwich was not made to my liking. Remade it over it was delicious.
Amari went above & beyond to render me great service. Their customer service skills, communication was amazing.

This is the dirtiest most grimy looking tropical smoothie store I have ever been in. Saw roaches crawling on the floor. TERRIBLE.
