    Frontega Chicken Panini impossible to tell since it's essentially a $12 piece of toast

    Forgot one sandwich and here's the other. Worst sandwich I've ever received in my life NOTHING on it whoever made this needs help

    On our drive home from the Midwest, we were looking for and quick, convenient and healthy dinner. This is located a mile off the highway in a shopping center. The restaurant is clean, the staff is friendly and efficient. You can't go wrong with a meal at Panera, it is delish!

    The workers here aren't very attentive and the people in the kitchen especially didn't seem to be putting much attention into anything. My sandwich came out so tiny, one slice of turkey, and barely any bacon. Not to mention how thin the bread was! It was not worth the money at all, I've never been to a Panera that served their food like this, it is horrible.

    I've seen a few other reviews on this place, and they're pretty much exactly as they seem. Granted, I've had this ciabatta cheesesteak a handful of times and it usually isn't this rough. The workers who prepared the food were super disorganized, the one young lady, "Carmel" was so chaotic and she had knocked into the other employees a multitude of times. It took 36 minutes for the cheesesteak to be made. Overall the line was annoyingly long, and the expression from other customers were accurately similar to mine. I'm completely discontent, and would not recommend to be served by this same woman again.

    Panera Bread has always been a reliable place for decent food, nice selection and friendly staff. Tonight, the United Methodist Church of Waterloo Village held a fundraiser at this location, so of course I happily supported their cause. Also, it was a great excuse to purchase cinnamon scones and some cookies! Their salads are my personal favorite, tonight tried the southwest Chile lime with chicken, nice! Plenty to take home for tomorrow and I love Panera bread.

    One of my favs from panera. Chicken soup in a sourdough bread bowl! Mmm

    We love Panera! Always delicious no matter what we order. I personally love getting half of a sandwich, and a small bowl of soup!

    The Black Forest Inn was awesome! Standing out was not just the quality and authenticity of the…read morefood but the extraordinary care. Our hostess was omnipresent, ensuring everything went perfectly; loved her German attire! Food was delicious and served promptly - - not an American guess as to real Bavarian / German fare but "the real deal"! Gentle piano music in the background made the atmosphere more relaxing comfortable. Corkage was a bargain and we were able to accompany our dinner with a hearty red to pair with elk, sausages and various "--- bratens " Thank you Hans Aichem for recommending this jewel. We'll be back again for certain! Mike and Alex Nolan

    I was fully prepared to come in here and unapologetically grade on a curve - I always feel a little…read morebad for this area of NJ when it comes to the gastro scene, and I want to support a legitimately unique enterprise like this. This was, sadly, not a good meal and based on expectations easily one of the most disappointing experiences I've had in recent memory. I came here yesterday with my top-tier chum from the Kingdom of Sussex, along with my #1 Honorary Young Pup Chum, fresh off a 20-mile walk down the Sussex Branch Rail Trail - so a bit tired and very hungry. Black Forest got me (and my appetite) in the best situation for them, in theory. Unfortunately it stayed just a theory. The atmosphere in here by far is the biggest selling point. I love a good taxidermy situation, and this place had it in droves. We were seated near a bear, and had eyes on numerous other wildlife, preserved for eternity. The stained glass throughout the restaurant is also pretty wild - it feels like you decided to go to church in a European hunting lodge. It's also deceptively large in there, which I discovered later as I tried to locate the bathroom (there is no signage for that) and wandered into two or three different dining rooms. Just wild and really does set this place apart from virtually any other restaurant in the area (maybe the far superior Walpack Inn can lay a claim?). I was intrigued by the Potato Pancakes w/ Applesauce on the appetizer menu, which ended up being the best item I ate. As you can see in the attached photo, they're basically big hash browns. They were good, and the applesauce made for an interesting palate combo. In what ended up being a bizarre theme throughout the meal, the accompanying applesauce came in a small plastic container that you had to open. This to me is one of the more egregious self-inflicted wounds I've seen from a restaurant, but also pretty fixable. This wasn't a crab shack at the beach or a taqueria in Newton - this is a restaurant with white tablecloths. Why aren't you serving the accompanying sides in a nicer dish, like a ramekin? What makes it more mystifying is that they HAD ramekins or something similar - they served the wrapped butter for the stale dinner rolls in it. I genuinely don't have a clue what the thought process was, but it honestly cheapened the optics and is something they should stop doing immediately. For my entree, I went classic German with the veal wienerschnitzel and a side of spatzle. The wienerschnitzel itself was fine - I've honestly had better from a food truck in Jersey City called Mordi's (I just checked and sadly they've closed), but it had no sauce or anything so it was super dry and overall not that tasty as a result. It would have even been an upgrade to get one of their infamous plastic containers of basically any condiment. The spatzle was honestly terrible; I had an excellent version of this at an Austrian restaurant in FiDI called Schilling (which has now converted to a French restaurant, apparently; I can't with these closures. Lord.), and this was just utterly tasteless. My chum likened it to "brain noodles," meaning the noodles you'd use in a blindfold game around Halloween. Fair, but even some of those probably had some flavor to them. Huge miss. I'm not sure why I kept going at this point but I decided to end this situation with the Black Forest Cake. It was a little stale (maybe it's kept in the same area as the dinner rolls?), but it was okay. Could have been worse, so I'm taking that as a victory of sorts. The chocolate mousse within it got positive remarks from my other dining companions in the context of their items, so that's probably the play if you're hitting up the dessert menu. The service was mediocre. Our waitress was very nice when she came to our table, which was infrequent. It seemed like she was waiting for food to come out (which took a while) as the context for a visit, rather than taking initiative to check on us. The Young Pup Chum waited close to 15 minutes for a second soda, which shouldn't have happened, especially given that we were there at a VERY slow time (just before 4pm). And the price point was honestly close to insulting. Neither of us are opposed to plunking down some Jacksons for a nice meal, but getting a bill for $200 (plus tip!) for not great food was not a fun feeling to close out our afternoon. I hate to end this on a dark note, but given that my two recommendations for German food in the area have both closed, you might not have much of a choice but to come here if you're hankering for schnitzel.

I ordered eggs with corned beef hash well done.... When the hash finally came out it looked like the put it uncooked on the plate and brought it 10 minutes after the brought the rest of my food ... I sent it back told them to forget it. The waiter then told me it was because they ordered a new brand..... apparently this new brand can't be cooked properly and won't come out the same time as your food... Drinking my coffee, I get to the bottom of the cup and there is a hair that looked like a pube at the bottom of my cup.... I now show it to my waiter who tells me just leave and crumples up my check.... Customer service sucked and food was subpar... I am so grossed out and we won't be back.... This place has gone downhill fast..... Had the proper customer service been given in the restaurant I wouldn't have bothered writing this review but the way I was told to leave because they are dirty, I decided to write this review.
