“Came in early afternoon on 12/16 and was greeted by Caitlyn, who welcomed me with a big smile and let me know she was happy to help if I needed anything. I was looking to get a birthday cake for my daughter, but the size available on display was a bit too large. When I asked if there were any smaller options, she explained that she had just made one and it would be ready in about 10 minutes if I didn’t mind waiting.

She even let it freeze a little longer since it was freshly made, added the candy toppings, and kindly offered to write a small birthday message on it. The entire experience was friendly, fast, and extremely courteous.

Highly recommend this location, and I would absolutely return—especially if Caitlyn is working. Her exceptional service truly went above and beyond.“

When I went for the first time I needed a seller because this work like self service, they help me and were so kind. Cookies are expensive but so delicious. The store is too small and it’s confuse because there are two lines, one for order and one for pickup, because of the size of the store it’s kind a mess“

Let me tell you there are many cookies that are great, but none are perfect except for the cookies that come from this specific crumble location I don’t know how they do it but let me tell you I’m not gonna ask.

“I've been going to Red Mango every week for over a year and they have the best acai bowls. Staff are friendly and the place is clean. Their menu is extensive and I have never had a problem. All the customers I encounter seem to be satisfied.“

“Great service Thank you“

“⚠️ Update ⚠️

They no longer sell boba here, it's just a slots place and I'm guessing a bar. The lady there just asked us if we were there for boba and told us to go to the Thai restaurant (Bodhi).

So I stumbled across this place back in May before they had their grand opening. I don't think they were actually quite opened just yet but the staff was nice enough to let me and my sister in and order. Unfortunately they didn't have any boba that day lol but I didn't miss it at all. I was so happy to hear that they only used alternative milk for the drinks since the owners are lactose intolerant. So that right there earns a extra star for me. While I didn't get to try all the options this will be my newest spot to come and enjoy wherever I need a boba fix.“

“Everything is great ! Very well customer servise , very welcoming. Always a clean environment , good management treats employees very well,always a positive attitude. Excellent flavors, fast service, and large amount of food for what you pay for. My daughter and I love coming here for nearly anything.“

“Friendly staff and very clean restaurant“

“Soooo delicious! I got a mangonanda and it was like eating a ripe frozen mango, with Chamoy and taji. my family got the ice cream and raced all the way home. I will definitely be back.“
