Good food but definitely one of those places where you have to be careful what you order.
Especially if you’re coming here thinking about being on a diet or in a calorie deficit. Mostly the things the include a nut butter as the ingredient. You may think you’re getting a low calorie smoothie. But trust me, the employees are putting in more than the 2 Tbsp’s of peanut butter than the recipe calls for. I’ve watched an employee there put in two overflowing gaping spoonfuls of peanut butter into a smoothie. Definitely was not 2Tbsp. It was more like 5-6 Tbsp worth of peanut butter. So imagine the calories and the amount of fat.
Employees don’t measure ingredients for anything and just throw together items and substitute ingredients even if they don’t have what the recipe calls for. Claims to be healthy but the ingredients in the kitchen have a load of added and refined sugars. The yogurts, syrups, nut butters, and other ingredients they use include added sugar.
Also always check the juices and cold press juices you buy at the front, they shake them every morning and check the dates but even if it’s past the sell by date, they hold them behind the counter, wait for the owner come in and then see if they can relate it and sell it. I’d recommend grabbing one from the back of the display if you’d like one.
The food still taste good but just be careful what you order and...
Read moreOkay so first let me start off by saying I LOVE and adore this place. I started making my own smoothies on my weight loss journey and found this great spot when I moved to Buffalo in February! They use healthy ingredients and still manage to make their smoothies outstanding. HOWEVER once and a while I’ve noticed they’re using not so ripe bananas. Normally I wouldn’t post about it but I feel it’s happened one too many times to not bring it to the owners attention. Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t like my smoothies too sweet, so it’s not that it’s not sweet enough. It’s literally just the taste of raw unripened banana in my mouth that I just can’t get past. I will still be a regular there because as I said most of the time it’s no issue. But this is like the 4th time now, and I’d hate to have to girls remake me something so I don’t always say something especially if it’s busy. But for $8 I’d like to have the same great smoothies...
Read moreWhen they are good, they are great, but it’s not consistent. Ive been going here about 2-4 times a week and always get a smoothie and usually a meal too, the meals are always amazing and the smoothies usually are... unfortunately one of the employees who makes smoothies just doesn’t make certain ones right, it tastes horrible. I get the same thing 90% of the time so I know what it’s supposed to taste like and it’s normally amazing, so It’s always disappointing when she makes them. She’s there a lot and it has happened to me about 6-7x now. I also have a friend from the gym that goes there after our workout who has the same problem with getting bad ones. I genuinely don’t think that’s acceptable when I’m spending $10 on a smoothie. I’ve wasted about $70 on smoothies that are...
