I'm
usually
lenient
with
my
reviews
and
am
forgiving
when
it
comes
to
service.
However,
my
experience
at
Sweetgreen
Oak
Brook
on
July
3rd
left
me
no
choice
but
to
voice
my
concerns.
I
arrived
just
before
closing
and,
unbeknownst
to
me,
they
had
decided
to
close
early
for
the
holiday.
Although
there
was
a
barely
legible
sign
to
this
effect,
it
was
not
clearly
communicated
to
the
customers
inside.
I
stood
in
line
for
approximately
10
minutes,
observing
the
staff
hurriedly
preparing
to
close.
Throughout
this
time,
no
one
informed
me
of
the
early
closure.
It
was
only
when
other
customers
walked
in
that
an
employee,
Yaharie,
informed
them
-
and
me,
by
extension
-
that
the
store
was
closing.
I
felt
that
this
lack
of
communication
warranted
speaking
to
the
manager.
Initially,
I
was
told
the
manager,
Christie,
was
on
a
break,
which
seemed
unusual
for
closing
time.
After
insisting,
Christie
did
speak
with
me
but
was
dismissive
of
my
concerns.
I
didn't
get
the
sense
that
any
improvements
would
be
made
based
on
my
feedback.
Additionally,
I
noticed
that
leftover
ingredients
were
being
consolidated
for
use
the
next
day,
which
raised
questions
about
the
freshness
of
the
food.
As
I
left,
I
casually
informed
new
customers
of
the
early
closure,
only
to
have
Christie
raise
her
voice
at
me
for
doing
so.
Overall,
this
experience
showed
me
that
the
location
could
benefit
from
better
communication
and
customer
service.
Also,
the
food
quality
is
questionable.
I
won't
be
returning
to
this
Sweetgreen.
