    Panera has a sweet spot in my heart since I spend a lot of time here for work. They always have plenty of seating so you will have no problem getting stuff done. The food isn't as bad as people think. They have a bunch of different pastries too including cookies/croissants/muffins etc. I like the soup and salads for lunch. The good news is you can get decent food at a good price. You probably won't be wow'd but who cares. Its Panera.

    It took 1 hour to prepare my $90 order for 7 people! At least my food was ready on time and decently put together, for a change. If you haven't noticed, the salad bowls have gotten shallow, while the price has gone up. The Greek salad for which I paid $8.19 was pathetic! Panera continues to set the example in poor value for the money!

    Their idea of a Cuban sandwich.  They were out of ham.
    Adele P.

    Not a huge fan. I'm disappointed because they are often out of main ingredients and they take a long time to fill orders. I've ordered ahead with the app a few times in the past two months, and most of the time that 8 minutes stretches to a half hour. I ordered a Cuban sandwich, they were out of ham. I ordered the poppyseed salad, they were out of mandarins. One day they lost my order completely & I had to show it to them on my phone. A lady who was there waiting had the same issue, but she didn't have the confirmation with her because a coworker had placed the order. By the time the coworker was able to get the email confirmation over to her, their meeting was over. I keep hoping things will improve because I like their soups & salads, but the Paramus location is much more customer savvy.

    Chipotle chicken sandwich and autumn bisque soup
    Nina A.

    This Panera used to ALWAYS mess up something about my order. I found this amusing, since they have to give a free pastry when this happens. Why lose money instead of doing your job correctly? The soups are very good, but the temperatures can vary. The chicken on their chipotle chicken sandwiches is absolutely disgusting. This only recently became an issue, so I'm not sure what happened. It's comparable to rubber; no exaggerations. The pastries range from fresh to stale. I've had much better experiences at Panera's in Paramus and Manhattan.

    Plastic mixed in with the noodles and veggies of the home style chicken noodle soup
    Steven M.

    I ordered a you pick two combo. I ate the Sandwich first, at this point I kind of wish I didn't. The reason I say that is because while eating my soup, I found plastic wrap in it. The plastic was mixed in with noodles and veggies, luckily I saw it before I ate it. The chicken noodle soup was also terrible. I'm not sure if they changed the recipe or what, but it was absolutely disgusting. Some may say "it's only a piece of plastic", or "it's probably part of the packaging" but for me any time I find anything in my food that's not suppose to be there I throw it out. I will not be returning to this Panera

    $12 for a bread and two slices of meat? Is this a joke? I see other reviews with similar complaints and pics to back it up. Only go here if you're looking to get ripped off. Literally fraudsters.

    Nick's Sandwich Shop (Located in the Mid-Town Center Strip…read moreMall) 505 Saddle River Rd. Saddle Brook, NJ 07663 Choripan Special: Half Sausage Sandwich Homemade Chips This special deal includes a half sausage sandwich with freshly cut french fries (the owner refers to this side as "chips"). This sausage sandwich is a simple sandwich consisting of protein, bread, and a signature sauce. While this may seem dull, it's actually quite tasty. The Argentinian sausage was served on a soft seeded roll. The chimichurri spread was freshly made in house and undoubtedly the best feature of the sandwich. The fries were hot, crispy and seasoned perfectly. A side of ketchup was included, but they were so flavorful they could have been eaten without any dipping sauces. There is a decent amount of seating in the dining area. Because the ship is located inside a strip mall, there are multiple parking spaces behind the stores. Carlos was very attentive and an outstanding server. He welcomed me into the restaurant and made me feel right at home. #nickssandwichshop #saddlebrooknj #choripanspecial

The steak was very tender, juicy and the chimi sauce enhanced the flavor. Bread was fresh and toasted. Also got to try the choriopan special ($11.95) which is a sausage with chimichurri sandwich was also solid. I liked the skirt steak sandwich the best, it's not cheap but the ingredients are high quality so it's worth it as a treat. If you're in the area and want fresh, made to order sandwiches, I would recommend Nick's. * Parking on premise * gender neutral restroom

I decided to go…read morefor the 53rd STREET BOWL, which features signature pulled chicken, brown rice, a mix of kale and romaine, pickled red onions, cucumbers, chives, and a drizzle of white sauce. It was delicious! The pulled chicken was flavorful, and the pickled onions and cucumbers added a perfect crunch and zest that complemented the brown rice and kale beautifully. I chose to order directly from the staff instead of using the kiosks since it was my first visit, and I'm glad I did! They were incredibly friendly and helpful, even wiping down the outdoor tables for me. The prices are pretty standard for a fast-casual spot.

Their tag line of "Eat Juicy Chicken" compelled us in. Unfortunately, our first time was a bit of a flop. First, the positives. Placing your order is a cinch, either with one of many kiosks or with the folks at the counter. We opted for the latter since it was our first visit and we were paying with cash. Service at the counter was warm and friendly. While waiting for our meal, we also took notice of the wide array of pumps by the drink dispenser. They're all free sauces you can get to dress up your meal. But that was precisely where things kind of went meh. My husband's boneless breast meal was heavily sauced and rendered the whole thing a little too salty. My chicken Caesar salad was just fine, but I craved more texture (some croutons would've killed). I keep comparing our ho-hum experience to others who've raved about their meals here, and I think our mistake was two-fold: 1) We didn't order a chicken sandwich. I should've known better - when most of the signature items on a menu gravitate toward one type of item, it's a restaurant's way of hinting at their strengths. Opting to order a salad and a grilled chicken at a fried chicken place was a bad start. Learn from my mistakes. 2) We paired a saucy chicken with saucy sides. All three items in my husband's order - the meat, the Brussel sprouts, and the potatoes - were generously drizzled with a sauce. It's no wonder our taste buds breathed a sigh of relief whenever we had a bite of undressed crinkle cut fries; we were assaulting our mouths with salt and flavor. If you're a saucy person, have at it ; otherwise, I'd recommend creating a more balanced plate and ordering a few things without sauce so you can appreciate the cooking. Because in my heart of hearts, I believe items are well-prepared here; they're just doused in too much covering to be appreciated.

Well, Soup Maison and Latin Kitchen makes soup an everyday food! There's always the favorite tomato bisque or tomato tortellini soup but with a rotating menu of different soups and other dishes plus a deli and empanadas, you really can't go wrong and it can be different every time you go. My new favorite is the tomato tortellini soup paired with one of their empanadas. I'm a fan of their beef empanada but their buffalo chicken empanada was a great balance of a savory chicken with just the right amount of heat. Try it with the green sauce, it's not for everyone's taste but it's a great mix. The fact that they have many soup options (with samples, if you wish) you can pair it with something or just go for a large and have it all to yourself makes it a place to mix and match on every visit. It's a comfy place, but there's not that much room to dine in, but there's a small table- but I don't mind running back home, get comfy and enjoy the food. Service has always been friendly- don't hesitate to ask for a taste, but let them do it- it's not self serve.

This review is based on the hot hero sandwiches. I got the Chicken Ala Vodka which is breaded chicken, melted mozzarella with their homemade vodka sauce which was alright. I split this with my friend. My friend got the Crusader which is sliced steak, potato, onion rings, peppers and American cheese which was also alright. I think they mashed the potatoes with the sliced steak, not overly mashed potato texture though. I think my expectations were high but it's still a solid neighborhood spot. The place gets busy and seems people order in advance for pick up. The amount of food and fair prices definitely makes it worthy to stop by but I will stick to the cold sub heroes next time. * Street parking * Indoor dining * Fair prices
