THAI CHICKEN
Martin S.

I did an online order while I was on my way to the store and it was done by the time I arrived! I enjoyed my smoothie, I think it's a fairly priced smoothie with good flavor but the food was lackluster for its price. The chicken is clearly bagged and the tortilla was hard . I wouldn't come back for food but most certainly a smoothie!

Service was horrific! I came with my boyfriend to grab a bite to eat. Our wait time was terribly long we waited for 45 mins because they "never sent the order through". The young women working here are very rude and look miserable. Very gossipy and a lot of animosity in the air. Will not be coming back.

"Sunrise Sunset" smoothie
Tasha H.

I finally decided to try this place today. I placed a pickup order for a Sunrise Sunset smoothie (strawberries, mango, pineapple and orange juice) for a little more than $6 with tax. It took 10 mins or less from the time I placed my order to receipt. The size of the smoothie was huge...much larger than I expected. The flavors were...meh...for a $6 smoothie I expected to taste each and every flavor but instead it just tasted watered down. Do they use fresh fruits? I couldn't tell. Honestly, Smoothie King beats them in price and quality so far. I would still come back and try other flavors though. Next time might surprise me. Also another thing to note...the outside was very run down. Honestly just by looking at the outside I probably wouldn't have come in to this establishment to place an order. I hope they fix this bcuz this can certainly deter customers.

Dropping a star because frankly there is no reason to charge extra for substituting vegetarian chicken for real chicken. When you ask them to remove a protein that is built into the $6.99 cost for another protein they already provide it should be a lateral swap. I realize that Beyond chicken is going to cost a little more than chicken but not that much.

I'm giving them a 3.75/5. 'm not quite sure what to make of this place. It's bubble tea, fro yo,…read moreand Vietnamese food. I was in the strip for dinner next door and saw fro yo so I knew I had to come here after for dessert. They only had 4 froyo flavors and one sorbet. One of their machines was out of service so it's possible that they might typically have more flavors available. It wasn't the best froyo I've had but it wasn't bad. The topping options were ok but the setup was odd. They had candy bars but most weren't crushed up. Most of them were mini size bars (like mini Snickers) in their whole form. Not how I want my chocolate/candy on my froyo. Everything had lids but some of the lids didn't have handles so we awkwardly had to maneuver them while spooning out the toppings (you get your own toppings). We got here 1.5 hours before closing so I hope the lids were only on there because they were preparing to close. I will give them credit that it was one of the cleanest group places I've ever been in, and I've been to a lot.

I haven't been since before COVID, so was nice to stop in and see how things are. They have changed…read morequite a bit since their early days. When they first opened they were strictly a frozen yogurt place and bubble tea. Now they offer less frozen yogurt (but still have a nice selection) and they have a nice offering of Vietnamese food. They have beef and vegetarian pho, as well as other selections. They have also added pretty murals to the walls. On this trip, we tried Taro Milk tea, Peach milk tea and a beef pho with an extra side of vegetables. The owner was there and was super helpful about my options. The pho was piping hot when I got home and tasted really good. They gave me a generous side of vegetables. The pho was my favorite part of the meal. Our milk teas were good. I personally prefer a "stronger" taro and could have done with it being slightly less sweet (I usually don't add any sweet to my teas, or almost nothing). You can't control the amount of sweetness here. My daughter liked her peach tea but thought it was a little too sweet for her but still good. Each Boba shop has a different take on their milk teas (we're boba addicts and have tried most of the ones in Montco), so I think over time, we've developed a taste for a certain type of milk tea. I was pleasantly surprised by the nice food additions to their menu and thought they were delicious. If you're in the Urbana area and craving some good food, frozen yogurt or Boba, then definitely check them out..

The French onion soup with short rib was pretty bland added salt and is was ok but expected more. The kale Caesar salad was also just ok could have used some shaved Parmesan although I did order it with chicken and that was cooked perfectly. we we a large group so we did expect it to take time for our order but one person ordered a braised cabbage salad the waiter informed is that there was a problem and they had to make it again said it would be an extra 10 min. offered a side free of charge for the inconvenience.

This time I got some women together to celebrate my niece's upcoming wedding. The staff was amazing. Our reservation was ready for us and comfortable for the chilly morning. Our waitress (Gabby) was the best. She was attentive, patient, helpful, and made the experience really nice. All the staff worked together in a positive, friendly way. The hostesses were genuinely friendly. The food was delicious as it has been each time I've had the pleasure coming to the Showroom. Thank you Showroom team for a wonderful time of celebration.
