A simple, easy and healthy fix, but a franchise nonetheless. I've tried the Sunset Sunrise and the Strawberry Basil Lemonade smoothies along with the Korean BBQ Steak Taco and Bajo Taco. I'm a huge fan of smoothie king so any smoothie I try is up to major competition. I can't say that Tropical compares but it is definitely convenient as I do frequent Metropolitan. The Bajo Taco is my favorite! SO flavorful but a tad bit pricey for the size. On the other hand, the smoothies are reasonably priced (especially the specials they usually have up front)! Will definite be back when I'm in the area and in need of a smoothie fix!
