    Caprese sandwich caesar salad and southwest salad
    Viviana M.

    Panera bread used to be so delicious, but I feel like you're paying way more but getting so little food back. For a small salad, its $9 is crazy. The caprese sandwich tasted ok, and the caesar salad without chicken was yummy. This will be a once in a blue moon stop.

    Fantastic food!!! Very quiet restaurant with nice people who work there! We ordered a half Italian sandwich and a "two for" combo with chicken chipotle / mexican salad (something like that) with Mexican street corn soup. It all was fantastic. We ended up paying right at 25 for lunch. Not bad for fresh ingredients and good food. We will be back to the exit 190 Grovetown location.

    We came today and ordered some soup, an extra baguette and a smoothie. The smoothie just tasted off and it really wasn't pleasant. My husband went in, and asked them to change the flavor to a strawberry banana because the mango was off for both of us. He came back with a barely "blended" smoothie in a cup that was 3/4, if that, full. I told him to take it back in and just get a refund. Honestly, there are 4 cars total in front and I don't see anything going on in the drive thru. Soup was good a usual, I mean you can't mess up the soup if it comes bagged, but the baguettes were soft and giant. My husband comes back after someone else helped him with the refund and even they said that it didn't look blended or right at all. Doubt we'll come back since there's a McAllister right next door.

    Service is usually good here. The restaurant is pretty clean. I like their bagels, soufflé, and the broccoli cheddar bread bowl. Their pastries are decent, I like the bear claw and muffins. This is also a good spot to bring your computer and catch up on work. Just don't come when they have the soccer and sports teams in here. It gets hectic

    You pick two: creamy tomato soup + Asian sesame salad, an apple, bear claw, and Diet Pepsi

    I love coming here to study and eat. The high top tables make it easier for me to stand while I study since I have lots of neck and back pain. I also love how clean the restaurant is. No debris. Tables are clean. The huge dining room never fills up so I always find seating. It's very quiet so if you need a place to turn down in, read a book, study, etc, this is a good spot. I gave it 4 stars because I come here all the time and the environment is perfect, the staff is pleasant, and it's honestly near my home. I deducted a star because the temperature is always so cold (I'm hot natured btw!) and sometimes, customers have to call out "hello?" for an employee to assist them. Maybe a bell that says "ring for service?" They don't have a TON of foot traffic so I can see why the front counter isn't being staffed at all times, but the awareness of front counter could improve.

    As a college student of the early to mid 2000's, I will always have a special place in my heart for Panera Bread. This one is pretty awesome with some serious upgrades. In fact, whoever designed this space should be hired to go figure out how to make the corner of Lewiston and William Few more efficient. Is this an unrelated rant?! Yes, maybe but seriously folks it's a yield sign that turns into its own lane that if you understand what a solid white line means you know you never have to fully stop. Simply yield and throw on the left turn signal and when the line is dotted, proceed to merge. Back to the bread. This is what I imagined happened: Customers: We want a drive thru, we want plenty of parking, a patio with umbrellas, a fireplace, boutique-looking pasty displays, an app where I can order my food ahead of time, a special spot to pick up my pre-ordered food with a big screen that shows my name, staff members to take my order, touch screens so I don't have to talk to anyone and can still order, plenty of outlets everywhere, deliciously fresh food, cushy booth seating, free WiFi (weefee if you like), coffee, smoothies, high chairs and big bathrooms. (Flinches in anticipation because we may have gone too far with requests). Panera: Okay, sounds great! Done and done. Yep, this Panera has it all...even (clutches chest) the 2000's playlist that includes John Mayer and Chasing Cars. I may go and get some side bangs and low rise pants. Okay, I won't but I will come back here!

    Panera is usually our go to and it never disappoints. The half strawberry salad is delicious- they add a generous amount of nuts and berries which makes the perfect blend of salty and sweet! Green goddess salad is also one of our favorites! Grab a candied cookie while you are there! They are a must try! The Grovetown location is pretty clean and there are spots inside that allow for people to do work whether it's on the phone or computer! Also a great spot to enjoy a book! Staff is also usually friendly!

    Great staff, cleanest Panera in the CSRA. Yummy foot but small portions for the cost. Overall this is a great lunch spot.

    Service wasn't the greatest especially since I was the only person there at 3:40 in the afternoon…read more The sticky rice was great and most of the other Dim Sum were very tasty. Only complaint is the Char Siu Bao. They were not bad taste wise but the presentation was not good and they were a bit dry which is odd for steamed buns. Overall not a bad visit and I might come back again if I'm in the area.

    DIM SUM | we stopped through Augusta for lunch on our way to Charleston and stumbled upon Meimei's…read moreDim Sum House, which was a pleasant surprise. It was a cold winter day and I just wanted something comforting for lunch. It was quiet but not empty inside Meimei's and we were quickly seated and placed our order. They had dim sum on the menu so we decided to try the dim sum sampler, which came with two steamed pork dumplings, 2 veg crystal dumplings, 2 siu mai and 1 char siu bao. While it could easily feed one, it was also great for sharing. We also ordered an order of lotus leaf sticky rice, fried pork glutinous dumplings, taro custard pastries and a bowl of hot and sour soup. The dim sum sampler was surprisingly pretty. The color of the veg crystal dumplings was one of the most insta-worthy things I've ever seen! The taste of everything was a-ok. Definitely worth a try, though! We loved the fried poor glutinous dumplings - fried to crispy perfection without being overly greasy. And the taro custard pastries were the perfect not too sweet way to end the meal. I was a little disappointed in the lotus leaf sticky rice. The texture was off and flavor was bland. Next time I'm in stopping through Augusta, I'll definitely be back at Meimei's for dim sum!!

Great salsa and homemade chips at each table. To-go plates are made quick and man it'll keep you coming back for more!

    My wife was craving Mexican so we stopped here for lunch. It was packed but we were greeted and…read moreseated immediately. The staff was friendly and took our drink order quickly. Without missing a beat, another waiter brought the best salsa and chips spread I've ever had! The good. We ordered the fajitas mixtas and a chicken taco salad. Despite being very busy, our food came out in about 15 minutes, which was just enough time to sample all the awesome salsa. Both of our meals had a decent amount of fresh guac, pico and sour cream. The chicken and steak in my fajitas was tender and cooked perfectly. The bad. My only complaints would be the seasoning on the fajitas, which was ok but would have been better if it was just simple salt/pepper/garlic. Also, the parking in the stipmall is horrible, especially if you drive a truck or larger vehicle. This isn't the restaurants fault but worth mentioning. The ugly. Overall, we both enjoyed our food and the general atmosphere. The service was fast, friendly and efficient. For $26, we both walked out stuffed and have enough leftovers for another meal, can't beat that so well be back for sure! 4.5 stars!
