    Expensive. Half a sandwich and a small cup of macaroni is $13. Also they just threw the bread in without any packaging which is gross. I can guarantee not everything they put in the bag gets handled with gloves so it's touching everything.

    "NEW Dubai Style Chocolate Pistachio Cookie"

    Food was good but was most excited about the Dubai cookie all for it to be way smaller than the palm of my hand and it be filled with nothing... not worth being a little under $4 smh

    The bug in the soup

    Yesterday 9/24 my girlfriend went to Panera and ordered the Broccoli Cheddar Soup and a Bread Bowl and was eating it when she noticed a bug in her soup after she filed a complaint they offered to refund her money AFTER 30 DAYS she's too nice to leave a review so im doing this for her

    First time going to this location. I've become rather fond of this place. I'm here practically everyday back home. Walking in I felt right at home as the place was designed much like the ones back home. Very friendly, and very inviting. Of course you know I had to have my Mango Super Charged Lemonade to get me going. The staff was pretty stellar. I have to say I'm really glad I came! I'll definitely be back my next visit to town!

    Deceiving menu pricing and No Disclaimers about their deception.
    D L.

    Finally figured out why there prices don't match the menu after questioned total. They don't list them correctly! They have an item listed as $7.49 under "pick 2" and if you ask they say you can add the salad or soup. It used to be for that price. Now what they do is add that price to the soup price! Then if you say you want the half sandwich only which is what they say is under the pick 2 price. No they add another $159 and say the half prices are not posted. This is borderline fraud in my opinion On top of that the manager Kim tried to say you can't post pictures of our store online! We may also send it to the State Attorney generals office

    Perhaps visit a different location for a better vibe .... #GoodVibesAll2024 I came here this evening (1/14 if the Manager would like to know the specific staff) and the staff were extremely passive aggressive & I feel deliberately mistook my order & of course included "1 Spoon" on my receipt but didn't give me one lol. Oh & then the baguette was given to me how it's seen in the photo. Hopefully they didn't sabotage the rest of my meal in any way... I feel, maybe these were teenagers or just a younger staff so the immaturity is completely understandable and forgivable. Note: There's many conversations about good energy right now, and the fast food industry - be aware of the people who prepare food for you and the Energy They have... Good Vibes Only All 2024! I am thankful for calling this out as it's very subtle, yet obvious - & this teaching moment, so that future customers can have a better experience. I absolutely, did not expect this vibe from a Panera....... ** The second photo is from the end of the meal. Now I'll say further, how can a staff be this upset with someone they do not know at all, who came as a customer to an establishment and made an order. I'm just ...flabbergasted- how with even such a brief interaction of making an order, then people can choose to act this spitefully. Again to the public, you must be able to trust who is preparing your food. Be aware of passive aggressive, immature, spiteful - miserable ... people (of all ages) who may work at these establishments and have this awareness for places you choose to nourish yourself with.... You deserve the best. Love & Light :)

    Not good

    telling you about this visit my sandwich was old the I thought it would be bread was old I tell Courtney if she can't help me and she say I have to buy something also y if wanna very bad experience

    We recently visited First Watch in Phoenix and had such a wonderful experience! Our server, Arely,…read morewas attentive, friendly, and absolutely fabulous. She made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down and checked on us just the right amount. We ordered two BEC sandwiches, which sadly are no longer on the menu, but wow, they were delicious! The bacon was cooked to perfection, crispy and flavorful, and everything tasted fresh and satisfying. Instead of the greens, we opted for the Million Dollar Potatoes and they were super yum! Such a tasty choice and the perfect addition to the meal. Great service, delicious food, and a lovely breakfast experience. Thank you, Arely, for taking such good care of us. We will definitely be back!

The interior is pretty long with a large number of seating inside the building so we had no trouble getting seated right away by the hostess. We decided on food relatively quickly due to previous experience with the business, however, our waiter never came around to take our orders or even give us water at the table. We saw one girl with dyed hair who unassumingly could have been our waiter since she was in our section but only worked with one particular table and ran to the back after each time, but never addressed our table or came by. We eventually had to flag a different waiter down who was able to help us place the order and service us for the rest of our visit, she also informed us that this other "Waiter" was supposed to help us but she wasn't sure why she never made an attempt to do so after having us wait 20 mins and other tables were being serviced. We ordered Flordian French Toast and Elote Breakfast Burrito (plus a couple sides and drink) which were both really good, and filling. Prices weren't too bad for what we ordered and was able to take our mind off of the rather long wait to get helped. Not sure if we'll come back to this particular location again, but it was nice trying the restaurant out another time.

When I arrived, my food wasn't quite ready yet, which honestly wasn't a big deal, but the staff went above and beyond and gave me a complimentary drink while I waited. Totally unnecessary, but such a thoughtful gesture and a great first impression. I tried the cucumber honeydew juice from their juice bar, and it was absolutely amazing--fresh, light, and not overly sweet. It tasted like it was made right there. For food, I ordered the Cuban sandwich, which was incredible, along with the pozole. The pozole came with fresh onions, cilantro, and lime on the side, and it was packed with flavor. I also got the potato salad, which was delicious and the perfect complement to the meal. The portions were generous, the prices were very reasonable, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. Overall, I'm extremely impressed and can already tell this is going to become one of my favorite lunch spots. Highly recommend!

One of our favorite menu items is the Thai Chicken Salad. It is very reasonably priced with lots of chicken and many other yummy ingredients with the sauce on the side so you can chose the amount of sauce you prefer on the salad. 7. The beverage station is self-serve and bottomless. 8. The restaurant does a lot of food delivery and take-away.

All I can say is after today's visit I will not be coming back. I don't know if somebody actually spit in my salad dressing, if the salad dressing is bad, or if they just gave me the wrong salad dressing (it's supposed to be a ranch and I've never had these black seeds in the dressing before). All I know is I'm extremely grossed out because that looks like spit in my salad dressing and now I can't eat. So I totally wasted my time and just under $13. Ironically I've never had this problem... all the times I've ever gone before I felt pressured to tip. This time I decided not to... And then this happens. Coincidence? It absolutely could be. But the damage has been done; because, now every time I think of this salad, I'm going to think of spit in my salad dressing. Update: To add insult to injury, as stated, I opted not to tip this time. I specifically selected $0. My total was $12 and some change (thus why in my original review I said I paid just under $13). I hit continue to check out and when I got home just now I noticed that my card was charged for $14.53... it's funny because I thought it was weird that the girl did not repeat my order or my total before she took my card at the window... so not only did they give me spoiled dressing, the wrong dressing, or spit in my dressing; but they absolutely overcharged me for my order... How are they going to charge your card differently than what the screen tells you you're going to pay when you're going through the drive-thru?! Everything about this visit was scammy. How convenient that they did not give me a receipt in my bag after going through the drive-thru! Thieves!

Wraps, açaí bowls, sandwiches, even protein beverages since there's a gym nearby - you get what you pay for. I love the Phoenix Wrap and the Chicken Pesto. You're typically choosing anywhere from 25 grams to close to 50 grams of protein when you eat here, though if there is anything to note, it would be that a lot of the sandwiches are $15+. You choose your budget, but don't miss out if you're looking to spend a little bit more. The staff behind the counter is usually laidback and pleasant. It's a calm place, and they don't mind letting you stay. If you have work needing to be done, it isn't a bad choice either. If I could give this place 5 stars for its smoothies, but maybe 4.5 stars for their sandwiches... I would. A lot of the times, I personally find that with the wraps exclusively, they tend to be lacking something salty or something on the side to feel like a complete meal. It's strange that it isn't with the sandwiches, but the last time I came, I saw they were doing specials. Be sure to check in for those. They also do sell chips there so it helps, but just keep that in mind. Cheers to healthy and enjoyable eating though. Great place, though not always my own personal pick.
