    Broccoli Mac and cheese but looks and tastes like cheese soup
    Christie S.

    Shout out to Yelp reviewer who recommended the chipotle chicken avocado melt sandwich- it's a winner in my opinion. Not a huge fan of broccoli Mac and cheese which has consistency of soup. Chicken noodle soup ok. I like the chicken tikka masala soup.

    It's been awhile since I've had Panera but man did I miss this place! They're extremely Covid-19 considerate and staff are still wearing masks with glass shields for ordering. There's hand sanitary stations and optional self-serve stations for those who are fully vaccinated (like for plastic utensils, coffee supplies, etc). To be honest, if you're still concerned about being around people, I would not recommend going here solely because it can get super crowded during the lunch hours of 11 am - 2 pm. Even more so on the weekends all day. On their menu, I'm still a big fan of most of their smoothies. Anything strawberry is really my go to but be careful because the calories do add up. I tend to also choose the pick-two for my favorite turkey bacon bravo sandwich (ask for a pickle on the side) and their updated version of the chipotle southwest salad. You get an option of a side for an apple, baguette or chips and I usually go with the ladder!

    Made a mobile order on late Sunday morning. Went inside the store after 10 minutes as the app said ready for pickup, but the order was not on the Rapid Pickup shelves. Checked again after 5 more minutes, the pecan bread was there but the cup for hot teas was not. Had to wait to talk to staff for one. Yes, it was very busy and more than half of indoor tables were occupied. They do have a few outdoor tables, but none were taken. The pecan bread and the self serve hot tea were all normal as usual.

    Good mix and match meal for my lunch.

    First time here, Penera Bread at Aspen Hill, MD, everything was fine. I ordered online ahead for dine-in, they said it would be ready in 10 minutes, and they made it. Then the food all were prepared correctly and fresh. I got Bristo French Onion Soup with Chipotle Chicken Avocado Meal and Broccoli Cheddar Soup with Toasted Steak & White Cheddar, they were tasty and enough portion for two people. This branch restaurant was comfortable and huge. Good for taking a break and relax time.

    Absolutely Disgusting I don't know what's going on in their kitchen but is the second time we find insects in our food so Im definitely reporting this to the MD Department of Health so an inspection can come

    Barely ripe tomatoes that came with the Chicken Cobb salad. Yuck!

    11/14/2020 Safety procedures are NOT followed at this location! Rapid orders for coffee mean THE CUSTOMER fixes his/her coffee like BEFORE COVID!!! Sugar, Cream, and everything else over there is handled by ALL! How is that safe? Note: I was told for curbside; they fix the coffee and for RAPID? pickup you do it yourself! If you want to stay safe from COVID avoid ordering coffee at this location! ALL STAFF and CUSTOMERS touch the coffee area! It is not good customer service for two people to order a Pick Two and one person get soup in a large salad bowl and the other person get a smaller bowl! I thought this discrepancy only happens when you order soup to go. (You get about half of the portion you would get if you ate inside the restaurant.) And it's not about "running out" of the bowls because it's lunchtime on a Saturday. I might contact the corporate office like I did after a horrible experience at the Wheaton location

    I have gone to this Panera Bread for about 15 years (8th grade inauguration ). It's always good in a pinch, and my baby sister even worked here for a spell before college. Service is pretty basic, not bad but not amazing. I find the employees to be a bit unenthusiastic. However, some of the customers in here have been super obnoxious about their bagels and salads ‍. It's always pretty busy, and I think it's fine in a hurry or for a quick bite. I much prefer the one on Tech Road. Note to management: sometimes, it doesn't feel very clean in here. Try keeping tables cleared and your areas more well-attended to.

    Had to attend a meeting at Panera Bread tonight. from their "You Pick Two" selection, I went with Broccoli Cheddar Soup and half a BBQ Chicken Flatbread. It was delicious to the max! Their specialty fountain drinks seemed to me to be umm Ninety-Percent water. I tried these four - Blood Orange Lemonade, Prickly Pear Hibiscus Fresca, Agave Lemonade and one other (I forgot the fancy name for it). I settled for the tried and true Hi-C Fruit Punch and it was just as I remembered from my childhood; sweet and well...sweet. The meeting went well and I left quite satisfied - refill drink in hand.

Boo-hoo, look around and you'll find a spot unless you're driving a yacht. Now, to the setting and the food...the setting is the way I like it. Rustic, clean, unassuming, not fancied up. Wooden privacy screens are set in between tables. (Perhaps because of Covid? Not sure.) This to me was really comfortable, didn't feel like I was stuck in a cattle car. I'm sure there's Korean BBQ here but we weren't at such a table. In fact it looked like grills had been removed from some tables and replaced with wooden covers. So nice to have that extra space because... Ordered bibimbap, bulgogi, steamed dumplings, etc. The extra side dishes I enjoy (kimchi, sprouts, etc.) were there as well. Ice tea, yadda yadda. Korean music was playing but it wasn't loud, on another screen by the kitchen I could see Family Guy. Again, not loud or intrusive. Didn't feel like they skimped on portions, there was plenty. Almost too much, wasn't sure I'd manage to finish the bulgogi but I did...mmm. Overall, this place is a nice break from other places. If you want to take someone out and just enjoy yourselves, this would be it. Perhaps a bit different when full, but still. Btw, it's been 13 years since I first went here. This week was only the second time. I totally forgot where it was or whether it was still around. So glad it is.

Was feeling hangry because I had planned on stopping at Hard Times for a bowl of chili -and found out they were closed on Mondays. So, pretty much pulled a name out of a hat and would up at Chuan Tian Xia because, well, Szechuan cooking uses chiles, no? Yesssss! I ordered Signature Dumplings and a bowl of Beijing-style Beijing-style Zhajiang Noodles. The dumplings were outstanding: a mix of shrimp, pork, and chive that were plump, juicy, fragrant with the herbaceous flavor of chives. The accompanying sauce was not too sweet, not too hot, just right as a complement to the dumplings. Yowza. I was a happy camper... ...and then I dug into my noodles. Double yowza! Thick wheat noodles topped with a rich sauce made from (I think) fermented soybean paste and braised pork belly, garnished with cucumbers. The portion was way to big for me to eat after my flight, but I really, really enjoyed it (and the remaining dumplings) for lunch today. Did I say yowza? I'm an adventurous eater so the menu's less Americanized items were what I would have ordered given more time (like Maoxuewang: can you say "pig's tongue, spam, pork intestine, and beef tripe"? Protein is protein, baby!). Just means I need to come back, and I will, as quickly as I can.

    This seems like a brand new opened spot that I wanted to try but when I asked my waiter he said…read morethey've been open for about 3 years. I got in there and the place was empty and I had to practically yell "excuse me" and someone came out to seat us. The old restaurant was a personal Hotpot place and the new restaurant didnt change the tables or the plates or practically anything so I was a little confused. We ordered and the waiter was super nice and helpful. He suggested good dishes to try and explained that each dish you order comes with a bowl of rice. When the food cane out we were shocked by the portion size. It was way bigger than we were expecting. The flavor of the food was good but a little messy. One dish we ordered was a little bland and the other 2 were pretty salty if not eaten with rice. The fish was not as crispy on the outside as I thought it would be but the inside was super tender and cooked very well. The color wasnt right but the flavor was there. It could've used a little more seasoning on top but it was good either way. The chicken we ordered was extremely spicy, which I liked, but it was pretty spicy. The pork we ordered was okay. It wasnt super authentic because they didnt cut the meat correctly but the flavor was there. Altogether I liked this restaurant and the prices were extremely fair considering their portion size. I would come here again to try the other dishes they have.

I guess this is how I know FoodTok has officially reached the mainstream, because I'm seeing more and more staged scenarios and dubious opinions.
