Upon walking in, you see this gigantic cat in front of you. Super cute and there's a lot of swags that you can buy on your left and right. There's a class that you can order Self Service, or a staff member to help you order. She was super nice and very welcoming and explained one of the drink that I had a question about. I ordered their tiger milk tea with Boba. There's no ice level or sugar level like in the Bay area, so it's just your order and it's by default. The sugar level was about 75%, which is great. I don't like lots of sugar in my drink. I also felt that there wasn't much ice in my drink, which many people appreciate less ice for more liquids. I think I taste more of the brown sugar than the tea itself. Overall, the milk tea is pretty good out here. I would recommend to try this place and give it a try. They also make the food fresh so it does take time and they had a sign for it as well.

He said they were really helpful. He also said that they moved pretty quickly even tho there were only two people working and they make everything to order. They were out of mango when we went but offered to substitute a different fruit on the tropical açaí bowl. My husband chose to sub banana and liked it. He couldn't have the granola because it does have nuts in it. My little brother got the very berry açaí bowl and really enjoyed it. He likes their granola! We got a churro crepe, caprese crepe, Nutella strawberry and banana crepe, and smores crepe. The crepes themselves are a little thicker than what I would prefer, but they do a good job loading up the toppings. The flavors were awesome. I think the churro crepe would be better in house and didn't travel very well. There is a little seating area inside and also patio seating outside for the shopping complex as well. I liked their vibe a lot and would go back again. I didn't order it but I did see on the online menu that they do sell Diet Coke.

Butcher Counter at 41st Location is a Problem: The rest of…read morethis Whole Foods is genuinely great, and the staff throughout the store are friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the butcher counter is a serious weak spot -- both in quality and service. On the craft side, the butchering is sloppy. The NY strip steaks are being cut from the nerve end of the loin, which any skilled butcher knows should be repurposed rather than sold as premium full strips. The pork chops have the same problem -- end cuts with that ragged, uneven "cap" where the muscle narrows are being sold right alongside uniform center-cut chops, at the same price, with no distinction made. These aren't nitpicky complaints; they're basic standards that a full-service butcher counter should meet. With one notable exception (there's one guy there who's actually great - tall, Caucasian, ~30 YOM), the service ranges from indifferent to actively rude. Expect to be ignored before anyone acknowledges you. If you order half a pound of ground beef, they'll grab two-thirds of a pound and start wrapping without asking, then get an attitude if you point it out. Ask for two pork chops and you might get one that's half the size of the other. Request specific pieces from the case and you'll be treated like you're being difficult. The biggest issue for me: they wrap chicken directly in butcher paper without a plastic bag first. I learned this the hard way when chicken juice leaked all over my refrigerator overnight. That's not just sloppy -- it's a food safety problem. I want to support this store, and I genuinely enjoy shopping there. But the butcher counter's combination of poor technique and poor service means I won't shop here if I need to buy meat. It's a real shame.
