Disappointing Food and Rude Service
My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. The food, specifically the burrito, was rolled all sloppy, indicating no love was put into its preparation. Additionally, the service was subpar, as the lady attending to me was rude.

Favorite spot for smoothies and food!
This is one of my favorite places to get a smoothie or something good to eat. The food is great, and the service is excellent. I also appreciate the atmosphere and the free parking lot with plenty of spaces.

Cardboard Burrito Wrap - Never Again
My first time here was a very disappointing experience. I ordered a breakfast burrito, but the wrap was as hard as cardboard. I attempted to unravel it to get to the meat and eggs inside, but they were nasty, as if the cooks didn't even try. People might go, but I certainly won't be back. I rarely leave bad reviews like this.

Refreshing Experience with Royal Treatment!
My experience at this restaurant was incredibly refreshing. The good meals were a delight, complemented by unique mosaic inlayed tables. They offer a great smoothie selection and even monster snow cones. What truly stood out was the exceptional service; the staff and owner treated me like royalty. Oh, and the buckets of real dam good ice cream were a fantastic treat. I absolutely love it!

Terrible customer service
My experience at the restaurant was terrible. The customer service was awful, but I blame myself for going to that place.

Amazing Tacos and Huge Smoothies!
My experience at this taco shop was truly amazing! I found it to be one of the best in City Heights. The smoothies were impressively huge and made with fresh ingredients, just like the food. I honestly visit so often that they already know my order. The people are great, and their food is great!

Disappointing Food Quality
My experience at this restaurant was not great. The food quality was disappointing overall. While the burritos were just okay, the fruit in the chamangos was consistently unripe, with the mangos being rock hard and sour. The ice cream also seemed to be of low quality and had artificial flavors. The service and atmosphere received low ratings as well. This place might suffice if you happen to be in the vicinity, but I wouldn't make a special trip here unless I lived nearby.

Charged for a spoon, terrible service
My experience at this establishment was far from ideal. I initially chose this location due to its proximity to my favorite corner store and a 7-Eleven. However, my visit tonight was a complete disappointment. After purchasing snacks for my children and girlfriend before a date night, I went next door solely to get a spoon for my ice cream. I was made to wait and endure a lengthy conversation between the cashier and another customer. When the conversation finally paused, I still had to acknowledge the cashier before making my request. She immediately asked what I wanted, implying I had to buy something. I explained I just needed a spoon and was considering buying more ice cream. She abruptly and boldly stated that they don't give out spoons, and it would cost $. 25. While I understand things aren't free, being charged for a spoon, especially with such an attitude, was a first. It's particularly galling considering I could have bought a whole pack of spoons for a dollar next door, or even gotten one for free from the 7-Eleven. This experience made me feel like discrimination is still prevalent and genuine, kind-hearted people are hard to find. The situation also disrupted my plans, leaving me to figure out where to eat, as I didn't want hot food from 7-Eleven and hadn't planned on cooking. Be warned, if you visit here, you might encounter an attitude. I can't even comment on the food's taste because I was too irritated and bothered to remember. I definitely won't be spending any money here again.
