I saw a video on Instagram "If he takes you out on February 13, you are the mistress." If he takes you out on February 14th, you are the girlfriend; If he doesn't take you out at all, congratulation, you are the wife!" Today is Valentine's Day, and I spent the day with my wife and family. We want to eat something simple tonight, so we went to Panera Bread (This is actually our first time at Panera Bread). We ordered sandwiches, soups, breads, brownies, and cookies. The quantities are pretty small, but the flavors are good. To me, Valentine's Day is more about spending time with loved ones than it is about where to eat nice food. I'm really appreciative of the time I get to spend with my wife, kids, and in-laws tonight. Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

Visited this store to grab my unlimited sip club beverage and got ice tea. Feeling good and also decided to get their new energizing drink cherry lime and their strawberry basil drink. Very refreshing. Ordered on the app and had to wait a long time for my drink and it was the wrong size medium. They were cool and got me a large which was what I had ordered. Even took longer for their new flavored drinks. Some parking in the front.

Food is great I like to enjoy my food in restaurant but I feel like they have a lot of campers . I just want to sit and eat and it's full of people just sitting there not even eating but on the phone or laptops and every time I come it's it's normally the same people and I only come about once a month if so because of the campers. I feel they should give customers a limit so others who are actually going to eat a place to sit. I hope the managers keep that in consideration

Panera has always been my go-to. However today, my service with them is over. I will be canceling my subscription with them. I had ordered the Ranch Parm BLT salad and first off, my salad lid was NOT CLOSED ALL THE WAY SHUT THEREFORE HALF OF MY SALAD SPILLED OUT. I also ordered the Broccoli cheddar soup (which is one of my favorite soup), but today was UNFORTUNATE. While enjoying my soup, I noticed something on the soup lid so I took a look closer. Turns out, it was a BUG! Now the BUG LOOKED LIKE IT HAD BE DRENCHED IN MY SOUP. I felt sick to my stomach. If you are going to be eating or planning to dine with Panera, I advise you to check your food before eating. Who knows if this has happened to anyone else and no one just noticed it.

Passion Papaya Iced Green Tea and doing work
Anthony V.

Very fast staff, lots of seats but it can get crowded in the early afternoon. I came here today to redeem my sip club drink (got my go to passion fruit papaya green tea!) no complaints about that. The bathroom could be a little cleaner as the floor was wet and you could smell strong scent of urine. I like that the place is quiet enough where you can do your work.

Cheesesteak and broccoli cheese soup with free chips

Panera Bread on Commonwealth delivers exactly what you'd expect--reliable, fast-casual food in a clean and comfortable setting. The soups, salads, and sandwiches are consistent with the Panera brand, and service is generally efficient. Nothing surprising, but that's kind of the point. It's a dependable spot for a quick, decent meal or a quiet place to work or study with a coffee.

Strawberry Poppyseed Chicken Salad
Kristen H.

Got some coupons again. Otherwise this place is a rip off sorry. It's like fifteen bucks for any meal item and it's still technically fast food. I appreciate the drive thru though, when I have to order to go because my dog is being barky. Good service and food is normal. Got it on sale so even better. It's not that it's not fresh, I would just rather spend fifteen bucks somewhere else besides a chain. Nice outdoor seating. Easy parking. I dunno. They accidentally gave me a baguette in addition to my apple sub so that was cool.

Rotten chicken

Ya time and time I've given them chances .. spoiled chicken the big hit at the drive thru window always has the worst attitude and just shoves u the bad thru the window .. my last time here

A Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Robert H.

I ordered togo a Cheese sandwich along with a Vanilla Latte. But by the time I got home all sandwich was stuck onto wrapper was not a good experience, coffee was good. I feel that a wrapper needs to be changed.

Does Panera deliver?

Not that I know of ... use UberEats or GrubHub

Do they sell bagels all day?

Yes absolutely, they make them fresh every morning. If you go later in the day the selection might not be as great but bagels are still amazing!

Nothing says…read morecustomer service like going out of your way to make it right for your customers and Henry did just that. We went back today and the food was delicious. This time my husband got the Granada which was recommended to us by Henry and I got my usual Legendary. Both sandwiches were packed with meat/ chicken and on top of that they both came out hot and ready to devour. The bread was succulent and a good amount of mayo and ketchup was added. All in all this is the experience we had been wanting to have and I'm so glad we went back. Thank you to Henry, again, for going out of his way to make us feel welcomed and well attended. He was happy to have us back and we felt very appreciated as customers. Can't wait to come back and try other sandwiches!

Plus, when you have cheese, the juice from the meat, and other sauce in it, Mayo is just confusing and unnecessary. The sandwich itself tasted good, but it was a lot of bread for the meat and toppings served. I would've appreciated having some of the bread hollowed out. But if you like lots of bread, then this is your jam. Price is decent for this day and age, and it was a big sandwich. I might come back and try the patty melt. I love Patty melts

DAMM !!!!! Delicious !!!!!…read more Well, for those of you that follow me, know I'm a cheeseburger kind of dude.... (Still strange to me) But this place makes some of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten..... I had the broadway sub and it is awesome..... it's a little messy but totally delicious. I also ordered the garlic knots ... wow !!!! Soooo good . My wife had the spaghetti with meatballs... excellent. I can't say anything about the location because I had my order delivered. Through Grubhub. I'm definitely going to order again. This place is definitely worth trying... And like I always say,,,,, If for some reason you don't like this place,,,,,, You're definitely brain dead..... (Jk) hahaha

Service was nice & fast, unfortunately I did not think the sandwich I tried was all that. I'm not…read moresure why everyone advertises they use Boars Head... I think there are better deli meats. Sandwich was massive, however, it was mostly lettuce. Didn't notice from the pictures that the sandwiches aren't very balanced between meats and veggies. It's my personal preference for some more balance or flavor in a sandwich, peppers/onions/seasonings. Honestly, Jersey Mike's seasons their veggies better. I will say the bread at this deli was a notch above Jersey Mike's which is definitely a plus as good bread can make or break a sandwich. Mozzarella sticks were great, although they were normal sticks nothing out of the ordinary but I've definitely had worse sticks (looking at you Prince St Pizza...) so I'd recommend them if fried cheese is your jam! Service counter young lady was nice, she was quick and helpful with her suggestions. Small store, kind of looks like a convenience store and then the deli counter is on the right of the entrance and cashier is in the back. Easy ordering process. Parking is in the back, limited spaces. No inside seating available from what I saw, just counter to order and that's it. Grab and go type of spot for sure. Place was OK - if I lived closer, I would think it's an ok spot to come more often but I would not go out of my way to come.

It wasn't unusual for me to get a few sandwiches on a weekly basis way back when. I am very happy that Cook's Tortas is still around. I have tried every sandwich on their board. My favorite has always been the Bombero #6. It is grilled tender steak with a red pepper sauce and avocados. The bread is a sourdough Ciabatta style roll which is made fresh daily. One side comes with the sandwich. This time I chose the Ham and Cheese Macaroni Salad. For dessert, I always get Great Grandmother's Corn Cake. Everything tasted very fresh. There was ample beef in the sandwich. The corn cake was not too sweet and the guava jelly on top enhanced the cake well. A pineapple-orange aqua fresca was a good, refreshing beverage accompaniment. Service was very friendly and exemplary. The food was prepared quickly and brought out to me. Prices are much higher now than before; more than doubled so this would be considered a special treat for me if I am in the area.

Pillowy soft and toasted bread with thick cuts of lengua, lettuce, tomatoes, mayo, and mustard nestled inside. The flavors are phenomenal! It also comes with a side and I always choose the Ham and Cheese Macaroni! I'm not kidding when I say I can eat the Ham and Cheese macaroni every single day and sometimes I order just a large bowl of it! I love that you can also upgrade the size of the sides to a bigger bowl. The sandwiches can be pricey, but honestly so worth it because of how big the portions are. Customer service is always top tier! The staff are always so kind and will answer any questions you have. Huge perk that you can also call in ahead of time to place your order and they offer curbside pick up. If you want to dine in, simply order at the cashier and they'll call you when your food is ready. Lots of seating inside and very clean. Free parking lot available too. Cook's Tortas will always have my heart and I will continue to recommend it to everyone I know!

Staff were absolutely wonderful and very helpful with menu items and deciding between the 'crispy' or regular Caesar wrap. I love the industrial Italian atmosphere when you walk in.

Am I crazy for thinking this is wild greed from their business. After spending $30 they can't give me a small dressing for my wrap? I'm not paying extra off principle. Trying to get an extra $3 out of me is gonna cost you much more. Sorry. All I know is being non accommodating is a good way to lose a customer.

The cheese was also not cooked all the way, and I ended up receiving just a block of cheese. Ddukbokki had a similar issue tasting sweet (to me).. the only redeeming item was the bulgogi bimbimbap. For DoorDash takeout, the portions of the bimbimbap were very generous and filling. Would I order again? Very unlikely, but I would be open to trying new items in the future
