    Thank you Javier for such great service and for being patient as I try to figure out my order. Truly changed a bad day into a good one! Thank you!

    Dirty stains on the wall

    When I first walked in, I wasn't greeted. There was another person in front of me ordering. There's two self service machines to place orders so I waited until one of them was free. Placed my order. The machine does take gift-card payments. Waited about 5 minutes. Found a booth, but it was kinda dirty? Not sure if anyone really cleans the tables and walls. The sandwich I ordered was really good, it was chipotle chicken with avocados. The bread wasn't as hard as I thought it would be so that was good. It was my first time trying it and I was satisfied. The chips were tasty too.

    early breakfast

    early start with Panera here. i got their broccoli cheddar soup, and a BLT. service was great, staff was nice and the food power jumped my day to an amazing start!

    Food ALLERGY not checked

    I have returned three times since my last experience here and I'm happy to say that they have been reading and taking extra care with my food allergy of "No Dairy. " It is really important to me and it shows that they care and it's important to them as well. I relaxed and studied inside in their loving environment and smiling staff.

    I put in an order through DoorDash. It was delivered in timely manner with everything packaged nicely. I got a half a turkey ranch sandwich with a Fuji apple half salad and it was very good.. I got a half dozen bagels and cream cheese and they two were good as well as a baguette cut up and thin slices.. Give them a try Bon appétit

    this week I decided to go to multiple Panera in multiple different areas. This location is located in the aNTIOCH Brentwood area at Lone Tree. I ordered the same thing every day and it looks like the croissant sandwich keeps getting smaller. It's not as smashed down as the one yesterday and San Jose but still total for the sandwich was $10.72.

    Avocado melt sandwich I got.

    I have been a regular at least 2,3 days a week customer of Panera Bread at Concord and Brentwood for last year. Panera was my to go place for last at least 5yrs. But last six months I have noticed that they really try to save on the fillings while the price is going up. There's no avocado or other fillings in the avocado melt and the soup is filled 1/2 way in the container. Bad move Panera. Two stars are for the flavor.

    Ordered a egg and cheese croissant sandwich. I had one a few months ago and it looked like the picture on the website and in store. Today I received one almost the size of an egg mcmuffin. $6 for this tiny sandwich. They should be ashamed of themselves for ripping of customers. I included the photo of my sandwich and their website. It was barely bigger than the tip of my small coffee.

    It's been several years since I've sat down at a Panera and now I remember why it's been so long. The god awful 70s music they pipe into the restaurant at a high volume is unbearable. I couldn't wait to finish and get out of there. Couldn't even enjoy the food. It was tasty food using high quality ingredients, but SOOO overpriced. I mean $14+ for a cup of soon and 1/2 sandwich? Seriously, I could have went to a nice sit down restaurant with actual table service for the same price or less.

    Tuna Sandwich
    Paul V.

    Me and my wife just dropped off our kids and thought of having a breakfast date. What I have in mind was a traditional cafe but she suggested Panera Bread and we were on our way. Panera Bread never occured to me when thinking breakfast but upon seeing their menu, their selection was pretty good. I was homing to a sausage type sandwich when I saw a Tuna sandwich and I am an absolute sucker for tuna sandwich. My wife had a Chicken Cobb sandwich and a few moments later our order was waiting for us in the counter. I must admit, it is the 'tuna'est' tuna sandwich I had ever have. It has very good flavor on top of a heap of leafies with make for a very hearty sandwich. Their brand chips was very good as well, albeit a little less than normal. Wife's chicken sandwich was good as well. Overall, I had a good breakfast at Panera Bread and felt good too afterwards.

    Receipt 3rd item down.

    App is easy, food is decent, but the rapid pick up isn't rapid. Either the order is late, missing something or forgotten altogether lately.

The rice was cooked well, veggies were fresh, chicken was flavorful, and all the other toppings and sauce all worked well together. It was a world of flavors combined. The ONLY drawback that held me from giving Banh Mi Express a 5 star was the portion to price ratio. As stated earlier, I ordered a large, in which was a typical "meal prep" container. If that was the large, it made me think how small the regular size was. And to think it was basically $20 for a bowl -- thankfully it was delicious! I will definitely be coming back -- and I MUST try their sandwiches. I'm usually a sucker for Banh mi's.

It's also in a great location with easy parking, which is always a plus. My husband and I shared a bowl, and since there were certain proteins he could not eat, the staff was kind enough to separate the protein options for us without any issue. Small detail, but it made a big difference. The protein tasted super fresh and the price honestly felt worth it for the quality. They also have a ton of sauce options to choose from. My favorites were the spicy mayo, unagi, and ponzu. The only thing I did not really find appealing was the wasabi since the color looked a little dull compared to what I'm used to. They also offer a first responder discount that comes with a free drink, plus a student/staff discount which I thought was really cool.
