    Nice little Panera store with drive up feature. Located in the newest North Brunswick shopping area . Lots of parking Place is brand new!!! Tesla car charging stations in the parking lot Has a small outdoor patio.

    Nice chunk of lettuce core in my salad, yum!!!!

    2 stars for their consistent habit for messing up orders/customer service. 5 stars for the interior layout. Every time I order from the app, to get food to my table, theres an issue 9/10 times. Yesterday in particular, I placed an order and waited maybe 30 mins til I went up to the counter to ask for an update- only ordered a sandwich and salad. Asked 2 high school aged employees, they called the manager, they didn't see it in the system blah blah blah I got my food 15 mins later. No apology, no free cookie, no $10 credit, nothing. I eat my salad, which had things missing from it, only to see a nice large chunk of the lettuce core in it (see photo). Yes, I removed it from my salad but still... lol. I hear them have their staff/team meetings once in a while and they "think" they're doing a great job from rankings/numbers but I'm constantly disappointed. I've overheard a manager say how they're more than happy to let people go because someone is always looking for a job (which is true) but train people better and improve customer service please! On the bright side, this is the only place I come to study and get some work done. It's spacious enough inside for me to find my own little corner and be productive.

    Mediocre food. Nothing special about the food. Went here on a Monday night (~6pm). I only go here because it's a nice place to hangout with friends and catch up while not getting distracted by super delicious food (joke: there is no delicious food here) I got a baked potato soup with a sprouted grain roll as the side. It was ~$7. The portion size was nice for the price. The only thing that threw me off was the sprouted grain roll. I've never seen it flattened like pancake/cookie before lol. Food came out fast, place was decently clean. Food itself was okay. I would recommend this place more for the laid back atmosphere than for the food!

    Grand opening treats!

    5 stars for hospitality. This location just opened up yesterday, and I happened to be in dire need of a study spot today. I typically stray away from Panera when it comes to studying, mainly because the aromas of the delicious food make me eat more than study, but today I decided to test my self control. I have to say this is one of the nicest, if not the nicest, Panera Bread's I've been to. Large windows leading way to natural light, outdoor seating, ample parking, convenient location, drive-thru, and of course PB has 100% delicious (and clean!) food. Studiers - this location has ample amounts of outlets (with USB ports!) and fast wifi! Although my anti-social self ordered online from my table, everyone I interacted with was extremely pleasant. I received a free mug and pastry of my choice for stopping in during their opening. Additionally, they were giving out samples of their chocolate chip cookies - always delicious. About 6 different smiling faces checked up on me (I was here for a few hours). It was certainly nice to feel so welcome in a "fast-food" type restaurant. My typical experiences in other Paneras with customer service are hit-or-miss (probably because they're always so busy), but I have to commend the staff here for being attentive and warm. Whoever was in charge of the hiring and training processes did a phenomenal job because the service was outstanding. Will definitely be making more frequent stops here!

    :(

    2 Stars because: they didn't seem to care about me as a customer. Sad face. They made a mistake and didn't tell me until after I had paid and waited. They weren't apologetic at all so I don't think I'll be returning.

    For a few years, I've been curious about how the food was here at The Rose. Unfortunately, with no…read moretakeout available until fairly recently, I hadn't bothered to venture here. But with that said, my girl wanted some Indo Chinese.... so we made the trip here to see whether it's worth a second visit. Now, to be clear: the Rose is a Pan Asian Cuisine. So it's not necessarily just Indo Chinese, but it also encompasses flavors from all the other countries too. We ended up ordering 3 items in the following order: 1a: Gobi Manchurian 1b: Smoked Vegetable Sizzler 2: Mushroom Sautéed in Ginger Garlic We ordered the first two together and those arrived relatively quickly. The Gobi Manchurian was the better of the two, but I wonder if it was a bit too overpowered with spice and less of the sweet and sour taste (or even the soy sauce). The spice was a bit too overbearing. The sizzler was fine, but it was mostly onions and peppers. The tofu - while cooked fine - surprised me because it was like the silky ma po tofu (which coincidentally is what they serve here). In other words, the same tofu is repeated across multiple meals. I think the tofu needed to be pan fried at least for a sizzler. Because of the above, we didn't feel full and thought that the mushroom would provide a different taste pallet. Unfortunately, that was a miss as the mushroom had the same taste as the gobi manchurian, when it should've been infused with the ginger garlic. Additionally, the mushroom was way too overcooked so you couldn't even taste them either. It was like a crunchy mushroom. No good. To make things worse, the waiter, who also manned the front desk, seemed a bit too aloof at times. Often that meant not refilling water unless prompted and not providing the check on time or not even setting up the tables properly with silverware. It was a bit disappointing. This place has the potential, especially with the cute decor. But failed execution with the food and some lackluster service do not make this a place I'd recommend in the future.

Beyond the appetizer, the restaurant offered a warm atmosphere and attentive service that made the dining experience even better.

It's expensive, and while the food tastes good, I sometimes question the quality of the ingredients, though I'm not entirely sure. Overall, the food is consistently delicious, no matter what you order. The service has been good every time, no complaints there. What brings this down to three stars is the ambiance and the price. The wraps are excellent but overpriced. Plus, the dining area on the other side of the restaurant is apparently closed, so there's no real option to eat in. That's a missed opportunity, it could be a cool, niche spot, but it falls short. If you're grabbing takeout or planning to eat in your car, this place is worth it. But for dining in or a full experience, you're better off going somewhere else or ordering catering.
