Boudin's was on my mind so I tried a new to me sandwich today. I ordered the Chicken Pesto. It consisted of: Marinated grilled chicken breast, Swiss cheese, Roma tomato, Pesto Mayo, arugula, red onion, balsamic vinaigrette drizzle, on toasted Schiacciata flat bread. I had the side mixed green salad as my side. That is one delicious Sando. I was really impressed by the flavor bomb. It was perfect size and left me full. I also got my Free Monthly Loaf of Sourdough bread - sliced. I was also given a Cookie!! I chose Chocolate Chip. Great customer service as always! Nice and clean ambiance. You owe it to yourself to try this amazing sandwich 5* read more

Super disappointed, especially for a chain at which you'd think there'd be some sort of quality consistency. Other Boudin locations have been great, but this one totally missed the mark. I ordered for pick-up -- a combo with a sourdough French dip sando and chicken apple salad. The French dip came with NO dip, the sourdough was tough/chewy, and there was no horseradish either. The salad was also positioned sideways in the to-go bag, and the lid had come loose, leaving lettuce everywhere (and this wasn't the fault of movement during transit; the lid was just not fully "snapped" on). Overall, it just seemed like maybe the staff putting my order together was having a bad day and didn't care at all... big IDGAF energy. I would have said something, but I had trusted that everything would be ok and didn't look in the bag until I had already gotten home. The only saving grace was the clam chowder that my husband got. It was nicely seasoned and a good thick consistency, but unfortunately, that wasn't enough to warrant that much better of a total rating. Typically, I really like Boudin bakeries, but I would definitely NOT return to this location. read more

I was craving a sandwich for dinner last night so my family and I decided to check out Boudin SF for dinner in the Fair Oaks area. I don't think I ever been to this location so I was really impressed with how spacious and clean it was. I liked seeing the Holiday stand where you could pick up different items - we grabbed a pack of their Seasonal Cookies and their new Sourdough English Muffins! They also sold Multigrain Bread loaves, Chocolate Chip cookies and even dog toys! They also have a ton of pastries to choose from and even milkshakes - I almost ordered the Salted Caramel one - definitely will next time! We ordered the Pesto Chicken Sandwich, the Turkey Cranberry Sandwich, the Kids Grilled Cheese, the Rustic Tomato Soup and the new Spicy Buttermilk Ranch Fries. Everything was really good - my husband raved about his Pesto Chicken Sandwich. Even the Seasonal Cookies were really good - I loved the Gingerbread man. My only complaint were the Spicy Buttermilk Ranch Fries - they fell a bit flat unfortunately. Overall, staff was great and welcoming - food came out quickly and hot. Staff were hustling around and did a great job communication which I really appreciated. I already told my husband that I wanted to come back again tonight for dinner! Check them out! read more

I have loved Boudin all my life. Since my days as a kid in San Francisco and the big Boudin store/restaurant. This Boudin is on the smaller side with no outside seating. The staff were super nice and attentive as soon as we walked in. The have all the classics as well as some new items I put in the pictures. Food was out fast and good as always. Clam chowder bread bowl for the win. We got as dessert my fave snickerdoodle cookie and almond croissant and my free monthly sourdough bread with my rewards points. I like my loaf sliced for sandwiches. Its great to know I have this option in Sac. :) read more

Stopped by for lunch on a rainy cold day. Was greeted right away by the friendly staff. Only one thing is good for a cold rainy day, the Clam Chowder in a bread bowl! Boudin's clam chowder in a sourdough bowl is pure San Francisco comfort food. The chowder is rich and creamy without being heavy, packed with tender clams and perfectly cooked potatoes,ñ. Every spoonful feels warm and satisfying, especially on a cold rainy day. The real star, though, is the iconic sourdough bowl. The bread has that signature Boudin tangy chew with a crisp crust that holds up beautifully against the clam chowder. As you eat, the bread soaks up the soup, making the last bites even better than the first. It's classic, nostalgic, and absolutely worth it. read more

Boudin SF - Clam Chowder in a sour dough bread bowl, Delicious! - Bakeries Near Me - Sacramento, California

I came in for a quick meal, and the free monthly bread loaf ( free every month with a prior purchase), but they were out of the loaf. I ordered the fries with garlic seasoning and sea salt, and a turkey and cheese sandwich on grilled bread, and paid additional for a loaf of bread. The ordering process was pretty slow, and had little initiative in confirming your order, so I'm guessing the ordering clerk may be new, and allowed some grace. The fries were nice and hot but underwhelming, no garlic flavor or salt til you got to the last five, and small for the $5+ price. The sandwich did not have cheese, and the bread was not toasted as requested, but the turkey was very fresh and was good. I haven't tried the bread yet, but I dropped it because she didn't put the bread in the right size bag to keep it from tearing. The food prep is usually pretty accurate so I'll have to give it a pass. It was a longer wait than usual. During the holiday season, I would suggest to give yourself plenty of time, and allow longer wait times. read more

The review is based on take-out experience. Thanks to Cass N. for sharing the BOGO week on salads. I placed my orders on line, head to Boudin and the order was ready for pick-up. It was pretty smooth except they forgot my soup. Good thing is that I discovered it before I left. She was apologetic about it. NBD - double check your orders. Tip: There was a long line when I got there and I didn't see a separate line/area for Online/Take-out orders. I went up to the counter and asked one of the workers. My order was sitting on the counter. So, don't stand on line. I got the Asian Citrus Salad and Little Gem Cobb. Both salads was great with fresh ingredients. Good portion. The fries was just okay, not the best I had. The add-on soup was tiny, not worth the $6. Overall, a nice place to grab a simple lunch and soup spot. I think I'll make an effort to dine in one day. It looks spacious and clean. I read more

Decided to change things up for lunch and come to Boudin SF. We always visit when in SF but I haven't been to this location before. I ordered online for pick up and when I arrived 15 minutes later it was packed and ready to go. The Cobb salad was surprisingly large, I did ask for extra dressing in the notes section of the online order form but they did not honor that request. I do highly recommend getting extra dressing tho as the tiny container they give is definitely not enough for the size of the salad. I also wish they offered blue cheese dressing, as the closest they had was ranch which I'm honestly not a huge fan of. The clam chowder was full of clam pieces and not a single one was chewy or grainy. The broth though was a tad watery and could be thicker IMO. Overall, was a nice change of my regular lunch spot and will be in the forefront again for my lunch rotation. read more

Boudin SF - Clam Chowder - Bakeries Near Me - Sacramento, California

Sorry, but selling your clam chowder in a bowl for the exact same price as a bread bowl is a scam. Wasting bread is one thing but not giving your customer a choice is another. The food is good and the employees are nice, but corporate needs to change this policy. read more

It was a busy place 4 a Sunday. Service was a tad slow, but again, they were busy!!! Staff was very friendly & helpful!!! My daughter ordered the "pick a pair" w/ a turkey avocado sammich & broccoli cheese soup. I got a bowl of broccoli cheese soup. The bread for the sammich was n soft & fluffy, it was a refreshing bite!!! And their broccoli cheese soup is 1 of the best in town!!! It seemed as every1 there was enjoying themselves & having fun!!!! They have a patio area of u wanna enjoy themselves sunshine & fresh air!!' read more

Was so happy to see that Boudin put the Crab Mac and Cheese back on the menu... I've been waiting for like ever... When I saw it was back I ran right in and ordered it first off it's now $19 (inflation) I guess and it comes in bowl 1/2 the size it once was. The old crab Mac and cheese was more of a bake and was so delicious with a garlic butter type sauce and was always piping hot.. Was the absolute best thing to eat on a cold night... The new one left a lot to be desired it tasted like velveta shells and cheese with canned crab thrown on it.. looks like all good things must come to an end. Service was amazing though and the chocolate chip cookies never dissapoint. Restaurant is always clean and clear of clutter, always smells good and appears to be ADA complaint read more

I had an appointment near by and it was lunch time so thought I'd stop in because I've heard good things about Boudin SF. I asked the nice lady taking my order for recommendations and she recommended the mission street fries. We also got a caprese sandwich and a Margherita Pizza. Everything was good. Not super delicious to the point where you keep craving the food afterwards and can't wait go back. Unfortunately. Just good. read more

Everything tastes great! They have some unique sandwiches, in addition to the classics. Love the outdoor seating too!

This location is clean and the food quality was fine; however, our experience with the staff was disappointing. Upon entering, we observed a staff member speaking harshly to a DoorDash driver who appeared to have a language barrier. After placing our order, we sat down, but when the food was brought out, my meal was missing entirely. When we inquired, we were told that it had never been ordered, requiring us to get up and place the order again. Once my food arrived and we began eating, the employee delivering the meals made an unusual remark to the guests seated next to us, asking, "Can I ask what's up with the table?" because the two women were seated on the same side of a two‑top. After the employee walked away, the guests commented that the remark felt rude, and I agreed. We finished our meal and left feeling uncomfortable with the overall experience. Based on this visit, we do not plan to return to this location. read more

First time visiting this location. Was in the area and what is better than picking up a free loaf and having a clam chowder bowl. If anyone that comes here isn't a part of their club. Why aren't you? Free loaf a bread. We always get the clown chowder bread bowl. Boudin you always know what to expect because they are always pretty consistent in quality and what you get. I really wish they would warm up the bread and toast it a little bit. I might ask if they can do it next time. I will say that eating there that the clam chowder is a lot better than their canned version. Chowder had plenty of meat and tasted great. They have fresh black pepper grinders upon request which is awesome. I would definitely come here more if there was a closer location. read more

I was surprised to see two menu items with Dungeness crab and both under $20!!! I decided to try the Dungeness Crab Louie! I also had the butternut squash soup. The soup had some walnuts and cranberries on top of the creamy, favorable soup. It was a delicious start to my lunch. The Crab Louie was so good! There was a generous amount of crab, a whole boiled egg, a generous amount of avocado (looked like half), plenty of cherry tomatoes, crispy, fresh romaine, and Louie dressing. A sourdough roll topped it off. I was very impressed with not only the quality of the ingredients but the freshness of everything and all for an unexpected price! Dining out has become so expensive with food costs and increased wages for servers, etc. These added costs have given me pause when tipping. If servers are now being paid a more reasonable wage and food costs have trebled at some restaurants, I am reluctant and even beginning to balk at giving 20% of my purchase. It appears that this restaurant may have considered that as well. I say that because the "suggested tip" amounts include a 10% suggestion. I really appreciate that. Service was good and the atmosphere was inviting. I also walked away with a loaf of sourdough bread because I belong to the rewards program! I will definitely return soon to try the other Dungeness crab offering before it leaves the menu. read more

Pre ordered on line for a Christmas Eve morning pick up, all paid for. Sent hubby to pick up and order was missing one item (rolls). Gets home and of course I know its wrong, even though he had receipt with him. I call and they say come back, another half hour trip, he goes back and brings home bag and order still wrong! NOT going back a 3rd time, so just used what they gave us. Lesson learned don't send husband to pick up lol !!! read more

It's basically a Panera. Lol I went with a pick a pot - spring salad and half a toasted chicken club. The salad was refreshing. The sprig mix was fresh and I liked the addition of walnuts and apples for textures. I just wish they would've provided me with more salad dressing. The toasted chicken club was good too. Chicken was seasoned nicely and the two strips of bacon were nice and crispy, just how I like it. I'm looking forward to the next time my office orders-in lunch so I can further explore their menu! read more

Spent $11.00 for a grilled cheese sandwich added a side of soup for $4.75 and was told I couldn't have a dinner roll to go with my soup without paying for it. I asked "you mean a $5.00 soup doesn't come with a roll?", to which she responded no. I my state of astonishment, I left. To whoever reads this, your prices are already insane and this was it for me. Lost a customer over a piece of bread. read more

I always love the menu of Boudin SF. They have so many creatively tasty sandwiches that include their famous sourdough bread, healthy salads and scrumptious bread bowl soups, even pizza. Who could ask for more? Joe K and I stopped in on our way to visit my dad. I sent a menu link via cell phone to my dad so he could let us know his order. He is not always tech savvy, but I was proud of him to figure it out! He ordered the Turkey Avocado: turkey breast, Havarti, smashed avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, mayo, on multigrain bread. It also came with a small bag of chips. He really enjoyed his sandwich, but the chip selection was too hard for him to eat. Joe K ordered the Short Rib Melt: Red wine braised beef short rib, Havarti, Swiss cheese, pickled red onion, parsley, on parmesan-crusted sliced sourdough. His sandwich fell "short". He complained that it lacked much meat and didn't look anything like the photo on the wall menu. I ordered the Grilled Cheese with Brie: Brie, Havarti, sliced apples, fig jam, on Parmesan-crusted multigrain bread. I just love the flavor combinations of grilled cheeses and fruits! It also came with a small salad which was a nice surprise! Even the dressing was tasty! Although one sandwich fell flat in satisfaction, my dad and I had a nice lunch! I'm sure we will be returning again because the food selections can't be beat! read more

The butternut squash soup is nice and creamy. It was warm and soothing to my throat. The turkey avocado sandwich was great. The multigrain bread was soft, there was a nice balance of turkey meat and veggies. The combo was good for a light dinner. And I ordered the lemon bar to satisfy my sweet tooth. I wouldn't recommend it. It was hard, grainy and tasted like dough. read more

It's very nice inside, and the people working here are nice and helpful. However,the proper name for this place would be "Boo-din sf" unfortunately the food quality is subpar. My son told me his burger tasted like school. I took a bite and he was right. Now, while I'ma fan of nostalgia, and sometimes a frozen low quality burger patty can hit the spot. But not when you pay $13 for it. I got the Florentine steak sandwich, and my steak came unseasoned. They didn't even bother to put salt on it. read more

3/224/2022 In the area and had to stop in my old lunch area .. Can't believe how time passes so quickly.. Fond memories of my Smud coworkers. Hurrying to grab lunch here.

Like how they brought it to the table with a little sourdough roll.. )wish the roll wasn't cold, but still good.. Chowder was good, but a tad thin.. Glad to have visited! read more

I order this through Uber eats it arrive quickly enough and the driver was pretty good... I was looking to get a hamburger, but this popped up, and I thought I would give them a try. I ordered a salad a hamburger and the round sourdough bread. Whoever made the hamburger was a complete idiot. The hamburger was cooked enough to be like shoe leather. Plus, as you can see in the photograph, they only gave me one small slice of tomato and a wilted piece of lettuce. Also of all things they had to burn the bun... The clam chowder was fairly good. I wanted some bread, so I ordered through the bowl. ... it was up to expectations, but unless your tourist are actually like your clam chowder in the bowl I will do not order it this way I repeat, just order the clam chowder by itself and the ball separately They did provide butter for all the bread, and all the bread was actually very fresh indeed ... As in the photographs, and you can see the size of a regular garden salad, and the sizes of the salad.. They do not offer what type of dressing you would get. they just gave me whatever they pull out of the sky...l If you're looking for bread and clam chowder, this is probably a good place to go. But never ever order a hamburger from this place this place are idiots and don't want to not have any comprehension on what a good hamburger should be like. They burn the bun they don't give you nothing on the hamburger, and the hamburger is cooked and taste like shoe leather. .. shoe read more

Boudin SF - Clam chowder in a Bread Bowl with Salad combo - Bakeries Near Me - Sacramento, California

Was craving for some comfort food on this rainy day. I've had Boudin once already but at another location. Same good tastiness at this location. I actually prefer the salads here than the salads at similar places (Panera, Jack's Urban Eats, etc.); all of the ingredients in the salad mesh well together and the ingredients are pretty fresh (no wilted veggies here). I'm no sourdough connoisseur, but I like how soft the sourdough is here (at least in terms of the bread bowls). If I wanted to be nit picky though, I wished the rustic tomato soup had less texture to it (still recommend getting this soup though.....strong delicious tomato flavor). Definitely recommend this place if your stomach is wanting something not too heavy and *relatively* healthy. read more

The food is good but greatly overpriced. My wife and I both had a small bowl soup and a half a sandwich and it came out to over $34. When I made the order. I mentioned to the lady that I am a member of the club where you get the free loaf of bread. When I mentioned it to the server she said we would have to stand in line again. And as a bonus my wife had a hair in her sandwich. So for the lousy service, the hair and the food, and the overpriced food, this place has gone downhill and will be the last time we eat there ever again. read more

8/17/23 - Well we tried it again after vowing 6/5/22 to not order from them again. We needed to bread today so I HAD to. We ordered; #1 Oval Loaf, sliced. Was this day old or just dry? #2 Italian Classic sandwich on a baguette and extra salami. We got an Italian on sliced sourdough and no extra salami (even though it's on the receipt and paid for). #3 Combo with a Cranberry turkey with Swiss cheese on a baguette. I got the baguette and NO cheese (Paid extra for). The Cobb salad looks like it has the avocado I ordered. People DO NOT ORDER DELIVERY OR PICK UP. YOU HAVE TO WATCH THEM MAKE YOUR SANDWICH. The error is your tickets. They don't print out what's ordered from the choices given from YOUR on-line menu. I seriously can't believe it hasn't improved in a year. WOW! So sad! read more

I attended a working lunch meeting today. A variety of box lunches were ordered. Everyone's sandwich looked good. I chose the chicken salad sandwich which was good, the bread was especially tasty. Alongside the sandwich was a green salad, a bag of potato chips, and a cookie. The meal was more than I could finish in one setting. And it was actually good for a box lunch. If I'm the future I have to provide lunch for a meeting in the downtown Sacramento area I'll definitely consider Boudin. read more
