Unfortunately today was not a great experience.
I made sure to tell them I had an allergy to tomato, but they may not have remembered and it was added to my food by accident, but when I told them I couldn't eat the food they gave me, they said either a worker would have to pay for it or I would have to buy another one...
Bummer.

Smoothie was good. I got the Island Green and added pea protein to it. It had a fruity taste despite being a spinach and kale based smoothie.
I ordered the jerk chicken wrap. It was also good. Lot of rice and very skimpy on the chicken portion. Pretty good flavor. Black beans and pineapple salsa and jerk sauce was not overpowering.
I will order extra chicken next time for $1.50 more. Not bad price for the extra protein.
I added the apple kale slaw for $1 extra and it was fresh and pretty tasty.
Overall, I don't feel like I got great value for my money at about $22 for those two items.
(Update, I now see where they offer a combo special and it drops the price to a better deal)
It was good enough to go back and try a different wrap and smoothie next time.
Update: I went back and tried their delivery service. It worked well. Tried a different wrap and smoothie.
Baja chicken wrap was good and again with just the right amount of flavor. Not overpowering.
Had the jalapeño corn as the side upgrade. It was good as well and worth the extra $1.
The Acai Berry smoothie had a good blueberry and berry flavor. I added the pea protein again for $1 which is a good deal. Maybe a little too sweet. Not sure if sugar is added to the natural fruit?
(Update: I see now you can order and adjust sweetener added to half or none.)
Excited to try a different wrap and smoothie next time.
