Found out the shop has been here nearly 20 years! Clean interior with a conservative number of chairs and tables. They have quite a number of toppings to choose from but little fresh fruit options. Still a treat though!

On Google it says that they close at 5:30 but we called and they actually close at six so that was awesome!

All the flavors I've tried have not disappointed, but my favorites are the Knot your Average Dough, and the S'mores Ice cream.

For as expensive as it is I would've expected better. I will not be back to this location again. Love this business. Not the location. I've been eating the ice cream for awhile. It's making me consider the whole company. I know consistency can be difficult. Perhaps management?

Known for its wide variety of rotating yogurt flavors, numerous toppings, and other treats like boba, shaved ice, and coffee (yes, coffee)! Staff were friendly and helpful, making great recommendations (since it was our first time). The vibe was cheerful and pleasant. They had a great indoor and outdoor space to enjoy your delicious treats! It is a bit pricey compared to other froyo shops! But they do offer a loyalty program which offers a stamp card for frequent customers. Overall, the frozen yogurt was creamy and slightly tangy. The dole whip and pomegranate sorbet were the perfect combination of sweet and citrus flavors. My daughter is pretty basic- she ordered plain vanilla with boba. And she said it was the best she had ever had! We will definitely be back for more!

And decided to stop by here for happy hour. Everything was just as he described great atmosphere, cold beer, friendly staff, great service good food. Our server's name was Cat, and she was fantastic, very friendly, engaging, attentive,and energetic. Unfortunately that all changed when Cat came to our table with another server named Mimi and said that she was going home and Mimi was taking over. The service immediately went south. Mimi was 180° from Cat. She was not very friendly, not enthusiastic, not attentive and seemed very low energy. We watched her walk around the floor several times yawning with her mouth wide open no attempt to cover it up, this was very offputting. We waited 20 minutes after Cat left, and Mimi never came by our table to ask us if we needed anything. She appeared to be ignoring the entire section. She spent most of her time standing over by the wait station or talking to customers at the bar (which I assume we're not her customers). The only reason we were able to order another round is another server that was not working our section came by and asked us if we needed anything. When Mimi finally did come to our table, we just asked for the check so we could pay and leave. The name on the check was Miranda so I'm not sure what that is about. We did also observe that the two bartenders who were working seemed to be cut from the same cloth as Cat, as they were friendly, engaging moving around quickly taking care of those sitting at the bar. If we're ever back in the area and decide to try again, if we see Mimi is working, we will either leave and go somewhere else , or maybe try to sit in someone else's section.

Everyone knows people are going for ice cream on a hot day. My disappointment is in the management they only have one young girl working all by herself. I'm gonna say there is at least 20 people in line who were behind me. When I arrived, there's probably about 10 people. The poor girl had to keep mixing the ice cream all by herself. I asked her isn't there anyone here working with you? I've never seen a store only have one employee. She didn't even have anyone there to relieve her for a bathroom break. The young girl worked hard and was very accomplished. I give it to Megan for not giving up. I would've walked out the door and told the manager or the owner to get down to the store and try operate all by their selves. Highly disappointed that someone would allow anyone to work there all by their self without any opportunity for a break. Her arm had to hurt, pulling all that frozen ice cream out and having to mix it with all the extra ingredients that everyone wanted. Most of the people in front of us were ordering a pint or more. I saw her shaking her hand her wrist look like it was really sore. She actually has a pretty good Workmen's Comp. case if she wanted. Hire more help and quit being so cheap. Don't treat your employees like this. Very disappointing.. He lost a lot of clientele too. They saw the line and just turned around and walked away. You're losing money by being so cheap and you're injuring your employees putting them at risk. You can't work someone this hard.

But with that being said me and my lady ordered 2 açaí bowls and they were ready in about 12-15 minutes. Not a problem for us. You can make your own bowl or choose from pre made recipes.

Cute spot! It's a small place, so I'd recommend getting it to-go, but it was still really nice…read moresitting inside while we waited for our order. We ordered the Fit açaí bowl for our friend to take home, and she absolutely LOVED it. We weren't hungry enough to get anything for ourselves, but I appreciated how the guy at the counter asked if we wanted anything drizzled on top. We chose almond butter (and silently prayed our friend didn't have a nut allergy ). Turns out, that was the best choice because she said the almonds were her favorite part. Now we're definitely curious and will have to come back to try the bowls for ourselves next time!
