    Panera Bread is never some magical experience, but I was a bit disappointed when I came in to pick up my togo order. There was a counter with a sign saying that's where you pick up online orders, but no one ever showed up there, and no employees asked me if I had been helped. I had to go to the front cashier to ask for my order. It was a bit frustrating. Other than that, the food itself was solid. Can't really complain about that part.

    Burnt grilled cheese sandwich.

    Placed a pick up order on 11/22 for dinner. Picked it up and brought it home to found the grilled cheese sandwich to be totally burnt and one of the french onion soup was the wrong size (cup instead of bowl). I drove back to ask for a refund for those items. Despite the fact that there was barely anyone in line, I waited 10 minutes for someone to talk to me. Even though I only asked for a refund for the grilled cheese and french onion soup, the manager (guy in red uniform) offered a full refund and some baked goods. I was initially pleased by this effort to make up for their initial mistakes, but over two weeks now, no refunds have been processed. Now, they have even messed up on their effort to even make up for the initial mistakes. The whole ordeal took about 1 hour. Wasted my time and money. It was a very disappointing experience.

    My company ordered lunch from here and I was pleasantly surprised about the quality of the food. I ordered a salad with grains and chicken and balsamic sauce. It came with another thicker sweeter sauce too to drizzle on. The portion sizes here were much larger than other salad places I've ordered from. I didn't really like the taste of the nuts in mine, but everything else tasted like a flavorful blend. The bread was roasted nicely and came with some butter. The cookie was so soft and I liked the chocolate in it, although the cookie is more on the sweet side, so share it with a friend. I usually hear mixed things about Panera bread but my good experience counters that. I would order from here again because of the fresh quality and large portion size. They also had many options for me and my coworkers to choose from.

    Got myself a fancy salad on a Monday evening, and it was delish! Customized the caesar salad, replacing the regular chicken with seared chicken thigh, and adding bacon (more protein, please!). Love Panera for their quality ingredients, whether enjoying sandwiches or soups at any of their locations. Today was no different. It was a pretty darn good salad, and even though they were out of the french baguette that typically comes on the side, I was able to substitute seasonal fruit, a pleasant combination of fresh and juicy pineapple, melons, and grapes. Easy ordering at the kiosks, only a 4-minute wait for my order to be ready at the pickup counter (notified via text on my phone), and no interaction with staff necessary. A positive experience and perfect meal thanks to Panera @First.

    We had our quick bruch here today, sitting outside in the sun and enjoying a healthy hearty meal for 2 :) Lots of parking right outside this outlet and lots and lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoor seating has over-head heaters to make it comfy in the evenings. As u enter, there are mini i-pads at 4-5 kiosks where u can go thru the menu and customize and pay as u please. In $26, we got : - chicken avacado melt - 5/5 yummy full sandwich that we shared for $13 - brocolli cheddar soup - 5/5 full portion yummy n cheesy $9 - orange juice - 2/5- skip it. It said not from concentrate but tasted like tropicana so no point paying $4 for it Its a self service restaurant so u have to pick up your food yourself and grab cutlery (towards the left of the pick up area) and condiments (on the right near soda machine) Clean restrooms and friendly staff add to the coziness. The entrees of soup and sandwich comes with a free side. U can pick one side from the following choices: - apple - chips (a small packet of crisps) - baguette (a small piece of bread) Next time i plan to try their value meals of "small cup of soup with half a sandwich" for $9. Seems like a good deal for a snack/ lunch.

    This is just the usual Panera Bread joint, nothing exceptional to note. I went on a weekday around late afternoon and stayed for a few hours to get some work done. Ordered a couple of things like soups and had no issues with them whatsoever.

But this is not on the place, they are actually really fresh, it's because that other person requested very basic salads and I got me the same. I'm sure other salads are great. Now on to the wrap. I didn't see any reviews or photos on the wrap, let's change that. I got 2 wraps: 1 Blazing Bird and 1 Date Delight (for someone else). He did not like his for some reason, but I cant' say much because I didn't try it. I got the blazing bird and it is honestly one of the best wraps I've had. It is good, crunchy and their sauce that comes with it is yummy too. I first saw it and thought, WOW, this is big, but I ate it all. The only thing I would say is it could use a little more chicken. This is probably why I was able to finish it, it did lack some chicken. I also got the bone broth and that is also very delicious. Overall the wrap is a 4. It would be 5 if it had more chicken. I will still get the wrap and bone broth again.

We walked in, but didn't exactly know what to do. We looked for the menu and finally discovered it was behind us. The staff isn't very interactive. Nobody tells you hello or ask if you need any assistance so that was a little disconcerting. We noticed people ahead of us ordering on the kiosk so we figured this was a self service kind of order place. Our family of three each chose our bowls and watched with amazement how it would fill the grains and other bowl components in the robot style assembly. Our bowls were finished up by someone that added the additional touches. Each of us loved the flavor combinations on our bowls. I love that it had the macros on there so we could choose the best option for our nutrition needs. The trash was a bit full and definitely needed attending and I wasn't crazy about the basically no interaction from the staff. It just felt kind of cold but the food and concept are pretty awesome. We'd love it if you made it to "off strip" areas of Las Vegas.

The fries were actually the best part. I had the nachos and the chips def needed salt. I ate about half because I was starving but they would've been better with more beans and sauce as it was still quite bland. The nachos look better than they tasted that's for sure.

And they knew we were done because the waiter came and took half our plates when we were finished. The place was practically dead so I don't know what the hold up was. I'm sure this place gets packed when there's events going on. The food and prices were not my favorite. I don't live nearby so I obviously wouldn't make the trip back out just to eat here again. The only thing note worthy was the atmosphere since the kids had a blast hanging out with their friends.

I am one of those people who thinks that just about every meal needs animal protein or it won't be satisfying. Well, Happy Flower proved me wrong because I came away with a very happy and full stomach and I did not even miss the meat! We ordered 8 different dishes to share family style, and I was especially pleased with the all seasons sampler and vegan fried rolls appetizers, as well as the pad Thai, salted fish fried rice, hainan chicken rice, tomato fish, and happy clay pot entrees. Each dish was quite large such that all 9 of us were able to try generous portions of each dish. And then we got two servings of the mango sticky rice to share and the mango was amazingly sweet! I did not try their boba drinks, but a few of my friends ordered drinks and enjoyed them. Their boba drinks are sized quite large as well. I will say, the meat doesn't necessarily taste like the meat it purports to imitate, but the textures for the fake chicken and fish are pretty spot on! Service was friendly and helpful and they delivered the dishes at a good pace. The inside isn't fancy, but it's clean and well lit and spacious. I wish I had known about this hidden gem sooner, but they had a good clip of takeout orders and families coming in for dinner. Parking is also plentiful and easy in their large attached lot. I will be back!

But the lemongrass beef is pretty good, firm and chewy not spicy. One of the others in my party got the eastern duck soup, which has a stronger soup flavor, you can taste the anise. It also has shiitake mushrooms. It came with veggie drumsticks, on an actual stick, but just takes like soy protein, doesn't really taste like duck. I tried a bit of Cali pho too, which was mild but pleasant, it has a ton of vegetables. Overall I'd give it more of a 3.5/5, there were certainly some items that could've used better seasoning/flavoring, but I do appreciate the amount of options that are suitable for vegetarians and actually being able to enjoy noodle soups that would usually have been meat-based. They do have outdoor tables and at the time when I had gone, no one else was sitting outside.
