- CCCecibel ChuquimarcaNov 2, 20252.0I usually order the same smoothie, but this time did not taste any good. My $13 smoothie was a waste.
- NDNoe DiazNov 1, 20255.0Staff and food is excellent.
- JBJeff BegleyAug 12, 20251.0Kid walks up to the register after spotting me waiting. I say hi and am met with a blank stare. I look at the menu and don't see the cappuccino smoothie and ask "where's the smoothie with the coffee?" Kid says they don't have a smoothie with coffee. Finally find the mocha madness smoothie and ask again. "No coffee smoothie?" Kid says no. Okay then. Heading to Smoothie King. Kicker? There's like 4 adults and a manager standing in the back room shooting the breeze, not doing jack, but they send this cabbage to deal with the customer. Congrats, owner, you're paying half a dozen people and still can't get an order taken.
