Emerald City Smoothie

Inconsistent quality, inconsistent service. Lots of «I don’t know» answers to menu questions. Over priced. Last resort smoothies, actually, not even last resort. Side salad at McDonald’s a better option!

There is one girl that is always working that is shorter, young, blonde, always in a side pony tail. She completely runis this place for me. She often doesn’t seem as if she’s made a smoothie before. She always messes up the ingredients (somehow none of the other locations, or girls seem to struggle so much with my order) and the smoothie ends up not being able to blend. when the smoothie doesn’t blend, she ends up adding more ice, making it impossible to drink out of the straw, and tasting like lightly flavored ice.
She always has some reason to for why the blender isn’t working. «Oh well the owners came in this morning and made 45 smoothies for some school, so the blenders are tired» «Marion berries are more frozen than the other berriers, so sorry about your smoothie»
I will never return to this location, although I love the other locations, this one is now burned in the back of my mind as the location to stay away from. I’m sorry I sound so bitter, but she’s awful.

Ughhh! My husband and I are HUGE smoothie fans! We make them at home all the time, and we love Jamba Juice, Smoothie King, and pretty much any other smoothie place. We’re not very picky and it takes a lot to mess up a smoothie.
We got to Emerald City Smoothie and I ordered a peanut butter and banana smoothie, and my husband got a tropical pineapple coconut smoothie. His tasted like cough syrup and mine tasted like burnt peanuts.
The woman who made the drinks was really really nice and friendly, though. She gave us the left overs of both smoothies so my husband and I could try each other’s drink. It was funny because I thought his cough syrup drink was the better of the 2, and he thought my burnt peanut smoothie was better than his.
2 smoothies were about $ 11.50. It was WAY too much money and really gross :(
