The smoothie people had their assembly line down to a science, but if you ordered food, God help you. Took an extra 30 min to get our wrap. I would still be game to go back if the smoothies were great, but this is the second time I've not liked it very much. Should've just made one at home. Also they should really offer more than one size. The smoothies are giant and I can never finish it. And it doesn't taste great the next day if I try to save it.

The ambiance is okay and the seating is shared with other vendors at the food hall. Also, to pair with the unpleasant interaction, I needed to go back because the mango salsa and hot sauce on my order was missing. Not only was the service sub-par, but the order was incorrect With Optimist Hall offering so many options, I would kindly suggest going other places instead, where you'll be treated with kindness and respect.

They also offer a walk up window if you just want to relax with your smoothie. My smoothies are always made on point. Staff are so friendly and work efficiently. Tips for those trying out: For starters, they do use a sweetener called turbinado. It's a cane sugar sweetener. If you prefer to do without, order your option as a skinny. My favorite is the green tea tango. It has matcha, Lean 1 vanilla protein (great for meal replacements). I usually get pineapple with it as my choice of fruits. And of course, get it as a skinny. When I'm on a busy schedule and know I will be missing a meal or two, I make sure to grab a drink here.

I see this one had a drive thru and I ordered fine but when getting close to paying the person at the window always a bit rude. Also I ordered a strawberry power drink not too sure what's the name of it but the 2 other locations I've been 2 already made it so tasteful and right. Something was off in the drink. Will try this place one more time hopefully I have. Better experience.

Quick and easy in and out visit. I ordered the promotional Strawberry Matcha smoothie and it was…read morereally good -- but one tip before you take that first sip: mix it up. The strawberry puree settles at the bottom so your first sip will be straight puree if you go in unprepared. Learned that firsthand. Ordering was smooth and the smoothie was ready in about 5 minutes. No complaints, will definitely be back.

Took a reasonable time as there were several folks in front of me. They called my name and we exchanged thank yous, but when I was walking away I heard a staff member say to the other that Saturdays can be their busiest days and they ideally don't do modifications. Whoops! The bowl itself was a little soupy, but tasty. Overall nice place to stop after a morning walk and glad theyre around.

I felt energized, light, and never like I was forcing myself to drink something I didn't enjoy. The site was helpful in making sure I picked the right option for my lifestyle.

I wanted to eat something a bit healthier than normal so we popped inside this Smoothie King. The staff here were really friendly and very helpful.

A lovely discrete treasure, a blessing to the South Charlotte food scene…read more This easy to find yet tucked away café was the best breakfast I've had in many years. The meal started off with an iced rosemary lavender latte crafted with their in house syrup made with cane sugar and fresh herbs. Rosemary and coffee has been a revelation to my palate and I'll be back for this alone. Which I will happily enjoy in this comfortable and cute dining area. Breakfast was made to order from fresh ingredients, piping hot and intentionally seasoned. As their bright and cheerful owner puts it, the main ingredient is love. And trust me, you can taste it. This is the first time in my two decades of eating tofu that I can actually shoutout how delicious it is. And the aromas coming of this photogenic waffle were mouthwatering. While Charlotte has become over run with corporate and copy cat restaurants, it is truly a thing of comfort to enjoy a delicious meal made by good people that care not only about what's on the plate, but who is eating from it. 6 stars

We didn't wait for too long for the table as people were just leaving. It took a bit for the waiter to come to our table and took even longer for him to get our food orders in, which we noticed he got the food orders in for the other tables with people who came in after us. This then lead them to getting their food before ours. I ordered the breakfast combo which came with 2 eggs, bacon, and waffle. I was a bit surprised that this place didn't have any chicken or turkey protein side options as I've seen is common with brunch places. I also got my eggs scrambled which, as you can see by the picture, came out as an omelette. When asking the worker about the confusion, he doubled down on it being scrambled eggs and even gossiped to his coworker about it as well. Upon the unfair wait and the egg situation, I will not be returning here again.
