    Liane R.

    So disappointed in this experience! I confess; been dieting for 3 months, down 16 pounds (went back on Keto!) and haven't visited this spot in months and months. Went off Keto this week (last week before returning to the classroom) and decided to treat myself with my favorite cinnamon roll from Panera. Ordering on app was super easy (always is!) but pick up was a disaster! Took 12 minutes to get my roll - fine, mid morning (9:54 am, pick up was stated as 10:04 but it wasn't ready yet, which was fine), kind of busy. No more go to the pickup shelves and find your order, now you go to an undisclosed counter ... I waited in the order line since there was only one young woman working that whole area and she was helping everyone alone - another guy comes in for a mobile order, yells it to her and she gets his - okay, yes, I was next but he must have been in a bigger hurry ... I told her I, too, was picking up and where were we supposed to go? Sh said over there where the other guy was (again, no signage, nothing) as pickups must now be behind the counter - thanks AV thugs ... She asked for my name and I told her - it was now 10:10 and she couldn't find my order then went over to the sandwich making section and returned with my cold cinnamon roll wrapped in a small bag - not warmed, no fork, no napkins - and practically threw it at me. Was going to eat in my car and listen to the LA CO fire updates and eat it but now I have to go home and warm it up. So disappointed! I will say she was very polite the whole time - and very busy - Haven't gone home yet as I wanted to post this first (and listening to update at same time). This Panera is locally owned I believe and has been a GREAT stop for me, for my family, for get together as with gal pals and for a quick comforting goodie, whether it's the amazing sandwiches or delicious soups and of course the baked goods. But with prices so high, I do expect good customer service and today it did not happen. Including the photo of my sad little roll. BTW; receipt "confirms" napkins - never got - and time is waaaay off (that's the time my app said it would be ready but it didn't show up until 10:06 that it was ready and again, I didn't get it until well after that time as I had to wait and the counter person couldn't find it. Glad I'm back on Keto on Monday so I won't be doing this probably for a very long time.

    I used to love Panera in Lancaster. Boy has it gone downhill. I went to have dinner at 6pm & ordered a salad that was not fresh (several wilted/brown pieces of lettuce & the bread that came with it had zero flavor.). On top of that, all the tables were not clean & the carpet all over the restaurant had crumbs & debris all over. It looked like no one was clearing & cleaning the tables & no one saw the need to run the sweeper over the carpet since lunchtime. Just nasty.

    I'd rate the food about a 3. However after I filled out their survey about their abysmal salad not having dressing on the salad as well as some extra on the side as was written on my order their manager emailed me to politely suggest I need to learn how to order. So I decided I'd swing over here and give you the entire scoop. You guys can decide for yourselves. Their salad was stuffed into a tiny container and absolutely soaking wet in the middle (how does that work when it's a cheap bagged spring mix and there's NO dressing on it). The small size of the container as well as being densely packed with soaking wet salad would not allow me to mix their meagre dressing supplied. Why buy 1.5 oz containers and only fill them 1/2 full? If you actually filled them up you could have a cost savings when using 50% fewer containers! Just a thought although being lectured on how to order from a fast food joint I'm sure was the better option for customer service. I had zero problem paying almost 40 bucks for this mess of a salad and 1/2 soup (and my husband's meal), but after their managers condescending email I'll never eat there again. If I had received an email apology I'd have been fine. Things happen and I understand that. I didn't bother to return it because I didn't want, or need any compensation. I simply tried to give them a heads up so someone else wouldn't be hungry the rest of the day. Just a suggestion instead of trying to teach your patrons how to order try teaching your crew how to read and properly fill containers! Who knows you might be able to lower your crazy prices and save time attempting to educate myriad patrons. Thank you

My mom got the chef salad and I tried a bit of her ranch and it was insanely tangy, and it took me off guard. She didn't mind it but she wasn't in love with it either.

I would come for the grocery store and the bakery but not for the food. I will add I did get a keto cupcake from the fridge and that was amazing! That was a win for me so I am very happy with that!

I also had my own music which was ok for the venue since we were in our own area.

My favorites are definitely the rum and bourbon barrel-aged choices, and The Gunny is a classic that you should try. They have a pizza place inside, and food trucks often stop by as well. If you plan on getting pizza, definitely order online ahead of time if you can, especially on busy nights--the wait can easily stretch past an hour otherwise. Whether or not you served, this brewery is open and welcoming to everyone, even on big celebration nights, like the recent 250th birthday of the Marine Corps, which was a great time. Highly recommend checking it out!

It's hard to find now. Most local fish markets don't even carry trout in the Antelope Valley; however, when I called the shop earlier, the person who answered said that they had some in stock, and I was quite surprised. When I walked in, it seemed like there was a lot of foot traffic coming in and out, and the owner, who calls himself 'Fish,' was giving out free samples of deep-fried octopus with hot sauce. Quite tasty actually. He was really nice and personable. He was able to give me some trout and also another fish called 'whitey' or 'whiting,' which he cut into fillets for me to take home. The prices were reasonable, too. They have a big menu with lots of options where you can order any fish and they'll fry it for there for you. He then offered to give me the head, spine and tail of the trout for free- to give to my cat. I thought that gesture was really sweet of him. My little girl was quite satisfied when I brought it back home to her. Thanks, Fish! I'll be back.

This bright restaurant certainly fit that description! We were impressed by the Hawaiian feel and decor right from the start. We were welcomed so warmly by the young manager and his staff. He explained the menu and some of the options and also that Thursday was a discount day if you ordered a dish that featured chicken as the main protein, because it was Thursday. My partner chose a chicken bowl on a bed of coconut rice (12.99) and I chose the combination chicken breast and shredded luau pork plate (17.99) also with coconut rice, and a delightful mix of sautéed broccoli florets, diced zucchini, onion, and finally shredded carrots. There were four accompanying sauces to sample. I liked a combination of the spicy teriyaki with the pineapple teriyaki. The Sriracha was too hot for me because I'm a wimp when it comes to hot things, and I just didn't love their peanut sauce very much. I think the recipe could be reworked. But I liked that they offered peanut sauce as an option! They also served us a tasty Hawaiian style macaroni salad made with cavatappi pasta. Portions were large, and I love their presentation for dining in, especially the angled bowls. Even their take-home was in high-quality reusable plastic containers , showing the care they gave for even the smaller details. Dessert options include an individual pineapple upside down cake (4.99) and choice of large size chocolate chunk or salted caramel cookies (2.99). There was a serve yourself drink station. Because my partner had the chicken protein he was gifted a free drink. They have locations also in Simi Valley and in Ventura city. The Palmdale location has been opened already for 17 years! We plan to come back here again for certain the next time we're in Palmdale. Plenty of free parking as it's part of a large shopping area, but easily seen from the street.
