    Grilled Chicken & Avo BLT.  Fresh ingredients. It's fine but not amazing.
    Craig W.

    I'm not a Panera fan and I probably will never be one. Sorry. It's just the ultimate cookie cutter restaurant and they all look and feel perfectly identical. HOWEVER, my bagel sandwich was legitimately very good. Was it worth 10 bucks? Probably not, but it was delicious and filling. And it came with a tiny bag of chips (you can get an apple or a small piece of baguette instead, if you prefer). The bagel I tried was the Spicy Steak Asiago Bagel Stack (stack?) which comes with steak, provolone, salsa verde spread, red onions, arugula, and sweet peppers. It's definitely on the spicier side, which I like. There is a lot going on here with all the ingredients but overall, it's very good. Also, it's only available for a limited time. I also sampled the Grilled Chicken and Avo BLT and it was fine but nothing amazing. In fairness, there is only so much you can do with the basic sandwich. The ingredients were fresh and the bread was good. Panera does bread really good, no question. Their mac and cheese is also solid. This Panera location is brand spanking new and even has a drive through, which I didn't know Panera restaurants offered. The interior was clean but not as spacious as I expected. There is plenty of free parking in the lot. Am I a Panera fan now? No, but the food is high quality and, damn it, their bread is really very good.

    Once a Favorite, Now a Disappointment I've been a 25+ years Panera customer, and their cinnamon bagels used to be "legendary"-warm, flavorful, and generously sized. Unfortunately, the bagels have noticeably shrunk while prices have gone up. What once felt like a treat now feels more like something you'd pick up at a 7-Eleven. My recent visit was also a customer service headache. When I arrived to pick up my order, the staff couldn't locate my name in the system, even after I gave my phone number three times. The ordering system showed I was eligible for a free baguette, but because they couldn't find my name, I was told I couldn't get it. Good customer service would have been to honor the reward, especially after I spent over \$55 on smaller-than-usual bagels with no cream cheese included. For a place that built its reputation on quality and hospitality, this was a real letdown. Unless something changes, I may not be returning anytime soon.

    Clean fast to get to a good food. Super friendly people I would highly recommend go there as fast in and out.

    Brand new location in San Marcos, California. Panera's sourdough multigrain loaf is pure California bliss--golden crust, airy crumb, earthy grains, and a taste that's irresistible. Paired with olive oil and balsamic, each bite invites you to savor life's beauty, like a warm California sunbeam wrapped in wholesome, tangy-sweet delight.

    I ordered a half sandwich of the turkey bacon avocado, and made it a combo. I was happy with the…read morecost of the food and the portions I received. It's a great place to go to for lunch. I did a mobile order pick up because that place seemed super busy when I went in to pick up my food. The sandwich is packed with fresh flavor and felt full from half a sandwich. Flavors and textures were a perfect blend of toast and crisp, and the veggies were still crunchy and not soggy. I tried their cookie for dessert and wow, so soft and not too sweet. This is a place I will come back to whenever I want to go out for lunch.

    This was a group order with friends who had been here before. They are not kidding by saying Tina's…read moreDeli is a hidden gem. All the sandwiches are fully customizable as to choice of bread and accoutrements, so keep that in mind. The garlic chili oil, chipotle ranch, and chipotle mayo spreads are all house made. I had the Turkey BLT with Avocado with "The Works", on a house made roll that they make daily. "The Works" includes mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomatoes, and chopped red onions. With the one inch thick stack of fresh, thinly sliced turkey and all those other delicious ingredients, this sandwich girl's heart was in heaven. I can't even describe how fresh every single ingredient was on this sandwich. Let's just say everything had a clean taste to it and not one ingredient overpowered the other ingredients. Oh! And I got a delicious house made chocolate chip cookie with the sandwich. There are daily specials. On Fridays, they supposedly have the best London Broil roast beef French Dip sandwich, with house made Au jus that is allegedly out of this world. Might have to make two trips to Tina's this week! A hidden gem.

    This is how you do it folks!…read more Been here three times and we've had different dishes every time and so far everything is delicious. Service is on point, like I said I've been here three times in probably 5 months and the crazy thing is on both return trips the guy recognized me like this is the epitome of mom & pop business right here. You feel seen and you realize the money your paying for your delicious food is going to real folks and not some corporate overlord nonsense. The vibe of the place is an industrial-esque sports bar the style that was super popular during the hipster face of restauranteering where everyone was going for the stripped down minimalist aesthetic but for this place it works. They have high seats, low seats and a couple TVs playing live sports with no real obstructions. We always come at off peak hours so I'm not sure how packed it would get but this seems like a good place to catch a PPV fight or something IF they don't pack everyone in like sardines. The food, jeez I should have probably made this the start of the review the food is decadent. EVERY dish we've tried has been packed with flavor, healthy portions, and fair prices. I recommend anything on the menu but if you want to get out of your comfort zone get the balkan fries, they're so good you won't regret it! This is the kind of place you want to see in business the people rock, the food is great, and you feel like part of the community patronizing here.

    I can't remember the name of their newest sandwich... but it smells and tastes delicious!…read more Think of a Balkan style Philly Cheesesteak with juicy pork shoulder on a hoagie. Smothered with cheese and their Balkan feta mix, it was absolutely a winner! Once again, just the very nicest family and great customer service!

Everyone was friendly, and the customer service experience makes everything better I ordered the traditional cheesesteak with seasoned fries and ranch,m. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and accurate to our cheesesteak preferences. Perhaps the best cheesesteak I've had in Southern California. I'll definitely be back. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

    The cheesesteak sandwich was very good, but not great. Given how drenched in cheese the small beef…read morecubes were, I couldn't really taste the beef flavor. I prefer the more common layered Philly style of thinly sliced then lightly chopped beef with slices of cheese melted on top, then onions/peppers folded in the roll. The beef is more the star in the style. As for the famously imported roll, they can save the cross-country expense as it's tasteless and wrinkly. There are many better rolls available from local commercial bakeries. A few more minor annoyances. Ketchup is only available in those messy little packets, and there are no salt and pepper shakers, just those tiny packets. And finally, what's with the 3% "Operations Fee"? A business's finances are run through a P&L, which always contains operating expenses. Given their prices and I'm sure good profit margin, any operations expenses should be built into the P&L model, not hoisted on the customer beyond the item prices. Overall, a decent sandwich and fries from a frozen bag, but for $20+ not a good value.
