We ordered the original tart flavor with mochi, chocolate chips, and sprinkles. It was delicious and very flavorful in taste. Even though it was cold, we still thought this was the perfect dessert choice we went for. We are so happy to have found another local frozen yogurt store instead of the chain ones. The people running the shop were very nice and greeted us happily once we entered. Seems like more of a grab and go place instead of a sit down venue. I would recommend this place to anyone!

I walk back in and explain something's off, and she asks if I ordered the right smoothie... I tell her something tastes off and she offers to add more peanut butter.The smoothie had yogurt, milk, berries, peanut butter and vanilla protein. I was concerned the yogurt, milk or fruit was bad, and I explain that to her. She takes the smoothie anyways and adds more peanut butter. I take another sip and I said "No. it's still sour" and do yall know what her response was?! Homegirl hit the shoulder shrug ‍and said "don't know what you want me to do, we made it right". She then refused to make a new one and refused to refund me. To make a long story short, we went back and forth until I decided to choose peace instead of violence. I let her keep her funky lil smoothie and left before I lost my temper. Her nasty attitude had me considering throwing the smoothie across the store but my momma raised me better than that. Plus, crashing out over a $9 smoothie is just not on my bingo card for 2025. Please, pick anywhere but here :)

I needed a quick meal as I had not eaten so I grabbed a smoothie - The Dolce - banana, chocolate protein, peanut butter, coconut milk. Yum, hit the spot. Good spot to grab a healthy meal, snack, or smoothie to take on your train ride or for on your way home. Plenty of options to choose from on a large chalkboard. It's a nice option to be able to customize a bowl with your favorite ingredients. Freshly made, clean location, friendly counter staff. Some tables and chairs in here too. Not super cheap but worth it for being a healthier choice.

The flavor was fresh and sweet but didn't taste too healthy. Truly perfection. It's a grab and go spot - we walked to Central Park which was about 10 minutes from the Green Mandala.

I clearly asked for honey turkey and cheese with no mayo. They gave me no cheese, thick slices of turkey (not thinly sliced like | asked), and wilted old lettuce. How do you forget cheese on a sandwich? It wasn't even busy so there's really no excuse. The sandwich was terrible, and the service was worse. If you're thinking about eating here don't. Honestly, they don't know how to make sandwiches. stop selling them if you can't even get the basics right. Look somewhere else. You've been warned. Don't waste your time or money.Look how terrible this sandwich looks.

FRIDAY NIGHT WHOEVER CLOSED AND MADE TO FO ORDERS NEEDS TO BE RETRAINED…read more They ONlY put in my additions, so the entire base of the drink is missing and it's only mango protein and ginger... the fountain of youth base of strawberry raspberry banana is missing and I asked for no blueberry which they got right but the whole base is missing... they didn't put the receipt in the bag. It's undrinkable sour and unbalanced. Now I paid damn near 20 dollars for this. Honestly don't do delivery near closing if your workers aren't going to pay attention. Also worker conveniently left receipt out. And Uber eats refused to offer me a refund only a five dollar credit... so I paid for the additives which were about 5 and then 15 extra I guess just for fun... please talk to Uber eats, make this right. Update after hounding Uber they decided to give refund. But please it's not about money.
