I ordered the Monterey Chicken sandwich, and let me just say... YUM! The chicken was freshly grilled, not to mention they were very generous with their portions of chicken! The bread was everything (because let's be honest, Sequoia's bread never misses), and they were so generous with the cheese. Every bite was chef's kiss My mom ordered the Lite Lunch with half a sandwich, a salad, and of course, a giant cookie for dessert. It was the cutest little combo and looked so good. If you're craving a fresh, delicious lunch, Sequoia's is always a solid choice!

By the time it took me to drive to the location, my order was ready. Friendly staff was quick and handed me my sandwich. The restaurant looks comfortable and clean and I would not hesitate eating in. West Coast sourdough is a good choice for sandwiches you can count on.

Tell me why I was immediately in love. The moment I opened it, I was greeted with a thick, generously stacked turkey sandwich that looked like it meant business. We're talking layers on layers of tender, juicy turkey, piled high with that crisp, freshly shredded lettuce that gives the perfect crunch in every bite. Even writing about it makes my mouth water all over again! The bread? Soft, fresh, and just the right amount of pillowy to hold it all together without falling apart. As if the sandwich wasn't already the star of the show, the box came fully loaded with a chocolate chip cookie,, a bag of chips for that salty crunch moment, and a little sampler of macaroni salad that was slathered in Italian dressing.

One thing I do know for sure is that I keep coming back because they have "that" clam chowder. My only complaint is that they are pricey and you can get a superior sandwich from other places. Parking is a little bit crazy during lunch time. Staff is always super nice here and the lines go pretty quick. I don't know if they have more than the 2 locations I know of. This location is not as fancy as the one on Brimhall, but their sandwiches are just as good.

**Review for Salad Sensations** I recently visited Salad Sensations on a Friday, and I was thoroughly impressed! The salads are always fresh, which is a huge plus for me. I absolutely love the ability to customize my salads exactly how I want them, down to the specific ingredients and portions. The prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food. Additionally, the customer service is excellent--everyone is friendly and helpful, making the whole experience enjoyable.

The parking lot was packed & very limited considering the lunch rush, but after waiting around a bit, a space freed up. The line was out the door! It felt like a bit of a wait to get through it, but they were doing their best. Once we finally made it inside, I loved the whole vibe. They had license plates on the ceiling, framed photos on the walls, and signs/paintings with little nods to Bakersfield. When it came to their food, I had no idea what I was in for, but was told by a friend that their salad lites were pretty good. And wow--there was nothing "lite" about this salad. They gave you a huge portion size. I could only eat half of what I was served. Granted the price reflects coming in at a little over $20. But it was still a solid meal.

After perusing the menu for a long time I decided to just go with a simple roasted turkey sandwich. I asked if I could exchange the yellow mustard for Dijon mustard and provolone instead of Swiss cheese. The sandwich came with squaw bread (which I love), lettuce, tomatoes and avocado. This sandwich was DRY. I think she ended up giving me just Dijon, no mayo at all and the turkey was shaved and clumped in the middle of the sandwich. Just a huge ball of turkey meat right in the middle of the bread. I attempted to open the sandwich and spread the turkey around but it was messy and I gave up. I ate 70% of it and threw the rest away. I would have thrown the entire sandwich away but since I was to be stuck in jury duty I didn't want my stomach growling.

On top of that, they removed the gluten-free bread option and now only offer a gluten-free wrap, which completely changes the sandwich experience.
