Highly recommend!

It's a herbalife shop, that puts in that extra effort to be better than the others…read more I belong to a bariatric group, and this place was touted to be a very good place to get a protein shake. Since there's a couple good breakfast spots in the area, I decided I would go to this location and give them a try. Place was decked out with decor and inspirations sayings. I take a quick look at the displays, and I see the herbalife products. To the unintiated, herbalife shops are pretty much these MLM shops. Kinda like lularoe. they use social media to attempt to appear trendy while trying to encourage repeat business while harvesting as much info as they can from you. I don't really care too much about that, I care about the end product and how things taste. After being to a few of these shops, I can say that I'm not really a fan of their proteins. I feel that they use a little too much thickener and are a little gritty. the flavors are muted and they always try to justify the price of the shake by giving you a detox + energy tea to go with it. Their shakes pretty much taste like what I would expect a protein shake to taste like, if I didn't know how to make one myself. The biggest difference between these shops is how they are operated. This place is operated pretty well. The owner was very kind and inquisitive, though they could be a little pushy. This specific location actually has lots of extra items like protein balls and cookies. They also got very decorative with their shakes, layering shake and mix-ins and topping with pictures of shakes to help you make your decisions. I got a shake, a tea for the girlfriend, some protein balls, and because it was customer appreciation day I got a balloon, a valentine protein ball, and a gift certificate. I did enjoy the protein balls, they had a strong peanut butter flavor and a good texture. The protein shake was okay, was this apple pie shake with layers of granola, apple, caramel, and a little apple pie piece on top. The tea had a little bit too much of their fruit punch flavoring, but it was drunk. The difference between this herbalife shop and others is the staff and the hustle, and this place is trying very hard to be just that little bit better than it's competition. I respect this place for trying as hard as they do, but it is not the greatest of shakes. If you want a herbalife protein shake, give this place a try.

A small shop in a plaza that'll have you questioning why you're out there…read more All the products are Herbalife brand from the protein to the additional boosters that can be added. Get a shake which comes with a tea. They have all kinds of different flavors too choose and the teas are refreshing. Takes a little bit of time to make it all, but not too long. I'm personally not a big fan of Herbalife and their company. The shakes all had a hint of peanut butter that more masked the intended taste. The tea is good but I think our's might have been mislabeled. Overall, it is good if you're close by and have $30 to spend on two shakes and a tea. The best part is the owner who has a great story on how she went through a weight loss journey and is fun to speak to. I might be back but not sure on that since you can get similar shakes at many other places or at your gym. The highlight was the owner, she was worth the trip not the shakes.

My daughter had the Nutella açaí bowl and I had one of the returning seasonal açaí bowl called North Pole açaí. The North Pole açaí had granola, strawberry and banana with a drizzle of Nutella and a sprinkle of peppermint. After I got it I was thinking to myself oh did I make the right choice. Just because of the peppermint. I thought I would be overpowering in the bowl. But, no not at all. It was actually ok in the bowl. I surprisingly liked it. Although it's winter and freezing it was a good treat. We didn't even really wait too long to get our order. The service was pretty fast. Come by and try their bowls. It's so refreshing.

They have so many varieties of bubble tea you could get. What I really love about Kung Fu Tea is that they can adjust the sweetness level to whatever your preference is. There are also so many ways they can customize your drink. I got the Brown Sugar Milk Tea. My friend got the Sunshine Pineapple Tea. Mine was only sweetened 30%. It was very good. I enjoyed the warm and chewy tapioca, the tea its self was a bit caramel like. I could see this being a good pick on a cool fall day. My friend's tea was a lot more summery. She got a refreshing pineapple tea, with tapioca on the bottom and tiny cut up pineapple pieces on top. We sat inside on their high tops and enjoyed the teas. This location has no available restroom. I would stop by Kung Fu Tea again, when in the area.
