| - After becoming ill from one of their burritos, and finding out the Health Department had (finally) payed a visit..I was curious to see the public records on this place. My previous experiences haven't been that bad, but they certainly weren't great. Firstly...go to the bathroom somewhere else because the facilities here are gross. The service here is hit or miss, some of the employees are nice but the Management is horrendous. I've witnessed them verbally abuse their staff and even food delivery services drivers, like Uber and Grub Hub. I had ordered the classic burrito and eaten it and felt a bit off. Within the next few hours I definitely didn't feel good, and shortly after that I know it was food poisoning, or at least bad food. I haven't eaten there since. I also witnessed Management insist that an employee at the juice bar, pick up a sliced apple that fell on the dirty floor mat and use it in a juice. Luckily the juicer explained, that was against health code, but she got in trouble for doing the right thing. This verbal exchange happened in front of me and other customers. I would have called the Health Dept. right there if it went in the blender! I looked up the public records. See the photos I attached. You can see they have a good amount of demerits, even close to a C rating at times. Based on the records I can tell they are not going to change and have no real intention to run their food establishment safely for its customers. I find this dishonest practice and complete lack of respect for the publics health and well being despicable! These Two Managers have NO BUSINESS running a business. Aside from that, the actual menu items are a complete waste of your money. Most the specialty items are store bought, taken out of the package and then heated, or not, and put on your plate. And then your paying 12$ and up. Literally, freshly cut waffles fries..means frozen from the bag and stuck in the oven, and served at near room temp. There is a small stand alone freezer, over by the tea and coffee bar, and you can find your tamales in there. Frozen and off the shelf. What's really sad is that they found a way to muck up produce. The salad bar isn't sanitary, and from sitting at the juice bar, I could tell, First In First Out, was not a phrase Management has heard of or practices. You think your safe eating raw, but fruits and veggies go bad; but they don't care. And thats what makes this the even worse! they don't care about their customers who want to spend their money on a quality VEGAN experience! Being talked down to and disrespected by the two supposed owners, says it all. Save your money, go to ANY OTHER vegan spot in town. Oh, and based on the fact that they hold their employees checks for 3 weeks after they are due is a huge sign of them being in the pooper financially. And I think the nasty old man who is mean to al the customers, lives there!
