Cada vez más caro y menos producto, han cambiado los vasos y ahora son más angostos y son engañosos, ya no es lo mismo

I came on my lunch break; My Bahama mama and wrap was perfect! I’m leaving a 1 star review because I politely asked the Hispanic lady on the cook line if she could cut my wrap. She rudely rolled her eyes, and said in Spanish to her coworker. “I need to tip” her for cutting my wrap. Stop thinking non Hispanics can’t speak and understand Spanish! If you don’t like your job, DONT WORK THERE!! Nasty attitudes & terrible customer service. I’ll stick to the McLean location!

I've spent hundreds at this place over the years. Their food has always been great. Until yesterday.
Ordered the hummus veggie wrap. Had a few changes made. The finished product was lettuce and hummus wrapped in a tortilla. Where's the rest of it? Sure wish I'd taken a photo.
Emailed the company directly regarding this experience. Haven't even received acknowledgement of my correspondence.
Another small company bought up by a hedge fund. Sad. And NOW, the restaurant responds by asking me to contact them further about this incident- when I mentioned in my original review I already did. Ball is in your court, Tropical Smoothie.
I won't be supporting this company further.
