    Asian citrus crunch salad
    Duyen N.

    I go to this Panera location at least once a week and they have for the most part always gotten my order right. I only ever do pick-up so I don't know what the dine in experience is like. As far as take out goes, I LOVE it. I place my order on the app and then head in store to their pick up counter for my food. Every time I order the tomato soup they forget my croutons which is a bummer, but aside from that they get everything spot on.

    what I left of a tuna salad sandwich
    Adria S.

    the food is fresh; the place is clean. There's a nice area to sit outside to eat during the summer with a pool in the background. Although all the staff members have been kind, Tom, in particular, is super friendly and goes out of his way to make sure customers have a pleasant experience. Their muppies thingies are really tasty too. Apple is sweet. I like the tuna salad sandwich personally. Price is decent too. : )

    Wild Rice Chicken Soup
    JRenee K.

    After years of loving Panera, I have to say I am no longer a fan. My pick two for $23 ended up being completely disappointing. The sandwich bread was barely covered with anything and contained two tiny slivers of almonds and one half grape. The soup was almost all flour with no taste, no chicken, and a few grains of rice. A total ripoff. What's worse, the two other Panera Breads in the western suburbs are equally bad, although the service attitude at the Ridgedale location is the worst. My partner tried talking me into saying something to management, but when I've done it in the past at the Ridgedale location, they couldn't have been any clearer that they absolutely don't care.

    Seriously, Panera? This is the steak and cheddar panini! Your new Chanhassen location has a lot to be desired. Management needs to engage
    Cynthia H.

    Steak and cheddar had one thin piece of meat. Restaurant is not managed well. Pretty pathetic compared to other Paneras in the area. Management needs to step it up.

    Weak salad

    We used to love Panera, but this place has gone down hill. The salad left much to be desired with approximately 1 leaf of lettuce to make up the salad. And you'd think there was cheese on the tomatoes to make it that white, but that was just the color/ lack of ripeness. Not worth the $$ for our family of 4 to eat here.

    The food is ok. They are overpriced, even in todays hyper-expensive world. Something is wrong.

    I keep trying this place in hopes that things will change as I usually like Panera. Each time I come the service is still super slow.

    found this restaurant from a Yelp Review while we were in Shakopee. I my mind, I saw a…read morefree-standing large country restaurant. However, it wound up being a small place in a strip mall. My expectations were very low. I am thrilled to report that Ruby's exceeded all of my expectations with a pleasant place to eat, fantastic service and quality food at a very affordable price. Jackpot! In this small restaurant, we saw what seemed to be a large number of locals. They have a very strong breakfast selection that is offered all day long. Since we were there at lunchtime, we decided to focus of the lunch offerings. My wife had the chicken salad, which was artfully arranged. The Chicken Salad comes with mayo, celery, onion, mixed lettuce, dried cranberries, fresh apples, mandarin oranges and poppyseed dressing., as well as an English muffin for $15. My wife thought it was one of the best chicken salads she has had! I ordered the Clubhouse Sandwich which came with lettuce, turkey, ham, bacon, cheddar, tomato and mayo on Texas toast, as well as a side of excellent fries for $16. Honestly, if this place was closer to us, I'd be here at least once a week, maybe more! I very highly recommend Ruby's.

    I can't give it 5 stars because me and two coworkers did a take away order but this place gets top…read moremarks! I got a bacon cheeseburger that came with fries and even though that's not a specialty burger it was perfection. The only thing I will make a suggestion, is to cut the seasoned sour cream with something additional, it was very intense. Other than that it was great!

    Went here for a spontaneous happy hour on a Wednesday afternoon and arrived just in time to put in…read morea happy hour order. This is a newer spot in Excelsior that opened summer 2025. Here's my review of the food we ordered: Cocktail of the hour - aka "Golden Hour" - 8.5/10 Reminded me of mulled cider, notes of honey, very refreshing Pork Belly Steam Buns - 8.1/10 Nice texture, very tender and flavorful Mini Banh Mi - 7/10 Not bad, would have preferred the more traditional pork filling Crispy Chicken- 8.7/10 This really surprised me, from appearance the chicken didn't look that special but it was well seasoned and the sweet chili glaze really stole the show and elevated this dish! Mirabelle Smash Burger - 8.9/10 I'm a sucker for smash burgers and this one did not disappoint. Nice crispy bun and a special mustard sauce that we enjoyed and a different flavor I don't usually have on my burger Sticky Ribs - 5/10 Unfortunately these were quite dry and was comparing to sticky ribs I had last week at CoV that were fall off the bone Overall good spot, service, atmosphere, and would be happy to return. Prices were also great for happy hour.

    I wanted to like this place, I really did. But unless they get a different chef in the kitchen,…read morethis place is not going to make it.... Let's start with the positives! The location! Very close to the lake(walking distance) There is a free parking ramp right behind the building. The decor of this place is cute! The details seem like they were well thought out! It feels upscale and cozy! I saw a video of this place and that was what originally drew me in! The seating here is also comfortable and not over crowded. Our server was ok. I saw so many raves about the "amazing service." She did refill our water glasses, which was good because I needed it with the salty steak! Obviously the most important piece is the food. We started with the popovers. The taste was fine but the texture was almost over done. The honey butter was lacking honey flavor. Cinnamon would have really elevated the butter! I got the steak frites and my sister got the spaghetti. My fries were average. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium all the way through! I was impressed. However, it was drowning in a VERY salty sauce! I had push a lot of it off. This should be served on the side, not covering the whole steak. My sister got the spaghetti, which our waitress explained was not a regular spaghetti. I feel she has probably had to do that multiple times and honestly, it should just be renamed. It's confusing for the customer. My sister did say she enjoyed the dish and that the shrimp was ere done well. For dessert I got "Aunties iced latte" which is their version of like an espresso martini. It was just ok. Would not get again. We got the carrot cake which was good!! But then they ruined it by putting fake whipped cream.... This is supposed to be a higher end restaurant and that made the dessert feel so cheap. We also got the creme brûlée. DO NOT ORDER THAT! It is an absolute waste of money! The sugar top was so thick we couldn't eat it! The dessert had the consistency of scrambled eggs, not a smooth custard. The taste seemed ok, but whoever made this does not know what they are doing! Overall, the food was not memorable and a lot of it was done poorly. There are definitely better restaurants in the area.
