Employees seem genuinely happy to interact with you and in many instances, have made awesome suggestions for modifications if an ingredient happens to be out of stock. If the weather is nice, I love eating on the patio to get in a little sunshine and a little people watching. Their rewards program is pretty great--I don't feel that it takes an obnoxiously long time to earn rewards. The app is also super convenient in that you can order ahead and offers curbside pickup (clutch when swinging by during peak times as Ninth St parking can get a little dicey).

The smoothies are great and giant! We got the acai one and the mango pineapple one and they were…read moreboth excellent. The mango pineapple one mostly just tasted like pineapple though. Sweet but not overly so. Nice and thick. Flavorful. The staff, on the other hand, were very rude. As if I was bothering them just by being there and ordering. I told her what I wanted and she just walked away. I guess we were done??

This is by far the worst smoothie shop I have been to in my entire life…read more The food is incredibly overpriced, the staff weren't friendly, and the food honestly tasted like shit. I got an acai berry banana smoothie, and it was given to me overflowing, without a lid, and mostly ice. I also separately asked for a cup of water and was given half of a cup of lukewarm water. I wanted to give 0 stars, but Yelp wouldn't let me. This place should not exist. Fuck Red Mango. Bring back Quenchers.

I've shopped at this Whole Foods for years, but my recent experience completely changed how I view…read morethis location. Be extremely careful parking here. The towing situation in this lot feels predatory, and Whole Foods appears to have little to no control over it. I parked with the full intention of shopping, briefly stepped away with my dog, and returned within about 35-40 minutes--only to find my car had been towed. Staff couldn't even tell me where my vehicle was, and the on-site security was no help and seemed unaware of what was going on. Because Whole Foods doesn't allow dogs inside, I had no choice but to remain outside while trying to figure out what happened. I was left stranded, with my wallet inside my car, and had to pay for an Uber and $230 in towing fees--meaning I had to prioritize retrieving my car instead of buying groceries. What's most frustrating is that Whole Foods positions itself as a premium, customer-focused store, yet the parking situation does not reflect that at all. There is a clear lack of coordination between the store, security, and whoever is enforcing towing in the lot. This experience was stressful, avoidable, and completely unacceptable. It felt less like customer support and more like a system that allows predatory practices to happen right outside the store. Please be mindful where you park; be sure to travel with soenone! I would never want someone else to go through this--especially someone alone in that situation.

They have added tents to the back lot (less parking, more seating, gotta make choices!). It adds a garden vibe to the back area they have been updating since COVID. It's still nice and open and airy inside. And the food is still just as fresh and delicious!

I moved back to the area a couple of years ago and came here for the first time after many years. It hasn't changed much which is good. Order at the counter and get a number and they'll bring your food to you. The bakery case has lots of delicious choices including large cookies and scones. Service is fast and friendly. I got an avocado toast. I prefer fresh avocado to the creamy kind that comes out of a package but the bread was good as was the presentation and generous fruit garnish. I got an iced tea but I'm sure their coffee is good. It's kind of noisy because it has that industrial, almost cafeteria type vibe but it's a good place to go alone or with a friend because it's so consistent and reasonably priced for the portions.

So I just got this sandwich, unfortunately I forgot about the name but it was pretty good. Only downside is that it the bread was so crispy and good that it was kinda hard to eat and taste the rest of the sandwich. Everything else was good, service, ambiance, all of that.

She clearly saw me, rolled her eyes, and continued stuffing her face. Absolutely disgusting and beyond unprofessional. When she finally decided to do her job, she had the nastiest attitude and acted like I was bothering her. On top of that, she was coughing loudly and had the nerve to cough all over my food and the counter. Completely unsanitary. I even asked her, "Ma'am, do you have COVID?" because at that point it was ridiculous. She looked at me like I was the problem. OUTRAGEOUS.
