I normally don’t write reviews, especially negative ones- but I’m genuinely confused at the amount of positive reviews this place has, mainly because I believe this is false advertising. This place prides itself on being a “feel good healthy food” but it sells donuts, waffles, energy drinks filled with sugar, and smoothies that taste more like a milkshake than a fresh fruit smoothie. I came here after a hot yoga class hoping to have a nice breakfast, and my smoothie tasted horrible- I couldn’t even drink it. I don’t know what was in it but it didn’t taste like fresh fruit. It was syrupy- not refreshing. I wasn’t even greeted when I walked in- in fact I felt like I was interrupting. It took ten minutes to get my order- the woman working was more concerned with the conversation she was having with someone sitting at the bar. She even took another person’s order before allowing me to pay for the smoothie I got so I could leave. I was very confused by this entire interaction, but remained patient, thanked her, and left. Ultimately, the environment was not welcoming for anybody not already in the “club”, the smoothie made me feel sick and tasted bad, and they’re doing a disservice to customers by trying to make them believe sugar and donuts are healthy. It’s dishonest. I always want to support small businesses, but I would not recommend this one...
Read moreI’m not from the area, the area I lived in had similar health spots with energizing teas. These teas allowed you to pick your caffeine level, and have dozens of choices for flavors. I prefer them over these teas, however, since those are not available out here these are decent enough. These teas have a dozen flavors in total and all come at 160 MG of caffeine with an array of vitamins, so paying $8-$11 per drink seems a little steep. However, they’re decently flavored and do give me a little extra boost. I enjoy sipping on one whilst I do my errands. The shop itself is adorable, with seasonal backdrops which make for great photo opportunities. The only real complaint I have is the lady who works there can sometimes be impersonal, and from my experience going to these shops in the past, I quickly built an easy going, lighthearted repoire with the workers and owners which seems to be missing here. Other than that, I look forward to continuing my ventures here and hopefully getting to know...
Read moreWhen you walk in you all you see is the açaí options but when you ask for what you want, all they have is dragon fruit açaí and when it came to the toppings, they don’t even have half the options they display… talk about false advertisement!! I asked for honey, shredded coconut, and peanut butter. When the woman at the counter, was making something for a customer (that came after us) it had been 30 minutes already and I had watched my dragon fruit sit in the blender that whole time. She barely put any of the toppings we asked for (95% dragon fruit açaí and 5% toppings). We went home and had to add our own. Worst part was that it came out to $30 😂 I get better açaí in Manhattan or in the Bronx for 11.50 each… Never again will I be going here!
I had already paid the $30 before she started making the açaí bowl, I had given it the benefit of the doubt but after the wait and barely any toppings. I will never go again! I wish I...
