    Panera is always a hit or miss situation for me. Today I ordered an Asian salad and smokehouse barbecue sandwich. Sandwich was good but I noticed that they have skimped on the ingredients lately. The salad was missing almonds too. I'm surprised that they don't have mandarin oranges as a topping like most Asian salad. Service was quick but the place had a lot of tables that were not cleaned.

    I've always liked Panera and the cranberry walnut chicken salad sandwich used to be one of my go-tos. It was big, fresh, and flavorful, definitely worth the price. Unfortunately, this time it was a huge letdown. The sandwich was noticeably smaller, the bread felt skimpy, and the taste just wasn't there. For $10, it really didn't feel like the same quality I've had before. I couldn't even finish it because it was so bad. On the positive side, the broccoli cheddar soup was excellent as always. Rich, comforting, and consistent. I just wish the sandwich still lived up to what it used to be.

    Chicken and cranberry sandwich
    Viktoria K.

    We had an unpleasant experience today. We were served a plate with a sandwich on it--only to discover a hair in the food. I spoke to the kitchen staff, and they readily prepared a fresh chicken and cranberry sandwich for me--just as delicious as the first one--but the incident still put a bit of a damper on my mood. And now for the question: ‍ Why don't food service employees wear hairnets to prevent hair from getting into the food?!

    Brownie
    Rica G.

    $4.39 for this little brownie. Absolutely ridiculous. Your online photos are very misleading. You should have these set in front so people can see what they look like before buying. I could buy a whole box of brownies for less than this. Can you put a little more oomph into the brownie.

    The most delicious chicken soup, if you want a light meal and enjoy a delicious breakfast of sandwiches, then come to this place!

    I dropped off my new car at the auto shop nearby and had time to grab lunch before my rental car pickup. I haven't been to Panera in years because of subpar service and food at other locations. This place was on point in all aspects. The restaurant is open, modern, and casual. The cashier was very friendly and helpful. It was a busy Tuesday around noon so there was a bit of a wait. But it was well worth it. My Southwest salad with grilled chicken was fresh and perfect especially with the avocados and dressing. My sourdough bread was superb with my broccoli and cheese soup although I'm not sure if you legitimately call it soup. Highly recommend!

    Bacon Mac & Cheese
    Ashley C.

    Panera is always a solid option for lunch! This particular location is a bit small and the parking lot is very crowded, but otherwise I'm always impressed by the service here. They always seem to go above and beyond! I had a coupon for half off entree so I decided to get a You Pick Two lunch and try out some new items. The cheesesteak sandwich was saucy, and I liked that I was able to switch the type of bread for no charge. I also tried their new bacon mac & cheese. It was just as good as the regular one. I always find it funny that you get a baguette on the side even when there's no soup, but I'm not complaining. The Pick Two option is always my favorite because I get to try two items and it's not a super huge portion. Had to pair it with my favorite drink here - the papaya green tea. So yummy!

    Can't get a hold of their cafe! Called the cooperate but wasn't helpful at all

    This location is a scam! Happened today 10/15/2025. They stated my food was delivered but it was never delivered! My coworker didnt have lunch today. We were gonna celebrate an event today. This was why I ordered food in advance. Ordered on 10/13/2025. I even added tip on the order. I can't get a hold of anyone at the cafe to explain this! They deserve a 0 star! But I don't have the option to place ZERO star here I need a manager to contact me to explain this situation!! Order #6051715996746736 See the picture! TOTALLY A SCAM!!

    Looks like I'm missing half my salad. This Panera has been a disappointment ......Please do better.
    Suguey M.

    The food is below average, and it's so sad because I love Panera but this specific location gets my orders wrong 100% of the time. Or the quality isn't there. My salad bowl is half full.. I ordered a grilled cheese once that was so hard and burnt I could've used it as a weapon... please do better, remember your making food for people. Sprinkle a little love on it.

    French onion soup
    Ginger D.

    Panera!!!! I love you!!!!! Okay what's better then a classic meal from Panera? You know it's going to be bomb! Today I got the you pick two.. French onion soup with the half Fuji chicken salad! Soooooo delicious! The soup was perfect as it always is! The Fuji chicken salad was amazing... perfect amount of flavor. The staff inside Panera are all so sweet. Can we also remember the best bread ever?!!

    Buckhorn BBQ always delivers…read more I've had them many times over the years, I've been to many of their locations, I've had them catered at work functions, brick and mortars, kiosks at malls, the one constant is that they are always so tasty and wonderful. This visit to this location was no different-let me tell you about it. First of all the location is located in a very busy parking lot, so lots of parking is available. The location feels pretty wide open and spacious when you walk in. Lots of tables and places to sit along with a bar area for those who would rather sit there. The smells when you walk in are so wonderful, it's like a day long aroma of grilled meat has inundated the building-it's lovely. The menu is very vast, the kind of place you can come to multiple times and have a different dining experience every time. They have a really nice BBQ sauce bar available for customers to try their different sauces. On this visit we went with a chicken combo plate with a piece of BBQ Chicken and a piece of Grilled Chicken along with a serving of mac and cheese and a serving of coleslaw. I took these items to go and enjoyed them at home. The service from the employees was pretty good, my food was packaged properly and was pretty much ready when I arrived. Let's talk about the food. I'm not the biggest fan of coleslaw but the one they serve at Buckhorn continues to be one of my favorites-especially when I top it with a touch of bbq sauce-pretty dynamite. I devoured their mac n cheese-it struck a very good balance of creaminess and cheesiness and the macaroni were a perfect texture-not all mushy-I really enjoyed this side dish. The grilled chicken was my least favorite of the two chickens I tried, it was a little on the dry side but a few dips in their bbq sauce was pretty helpful in making it much better. The bbq chicken was my favorite of the two chicken dishes, coated in bbq sauce and it was very juicy with a great mix of seasoning with that awesome bbq chicken skin texture-yep this was a great bite. In closing, I would say my dining experience at Buckhorn was pretty good and I look forward to getting back there and next time maybe get their famous Tri-tip again-it's to die for!!

Just recently, they changed how and when they give out their utensils and napkins when dining in. Usually they give you a small tray with that stuff on there right after you place your order at the counter. This time, they said that they will bring out the utensils and napkins when we get our food. The young lady gave us our food; however, our utensils were nowhere to be found even though she said the runner should be coming soon with it. We waited for quite some time as our food just sat there because we needed utensils to eat our food. My friend decided to go ask for them. This change didn't make sense to us as to why the utensils weren't brought out at the same as our food and why another runner had to bring them out (after receiving our food). I hope they go back to their original way of handing out the utensils and napkins in the beginning, right after you have paid at the counter.

The crust was perfection and the prosciutto and peach were an excellent pairing. The flank steak was seasoned wonderfully, the potatoes and blue cheese were an excellent combination of flavors. Of course we had to have the carrot cake which is a favorite- has to be the best in Sacramento. I always love the dessert cookies and the peanut butter cream sandwich did not disappoint- another favorite to add to the list. Service was great and you can't beat the beautiful plant wall and decor on the patio for dining outside. Of course we will be back again.
