The customer before me had a lot of questions about the menu and the staff was so kind she actually showed her the ingredients that would be used. Her patience for this woman was really awesome to see! I had the new Really Good Fish Bowl. It was yummy and had great textures! I loved seeing the evening specials they have. I highly recommend it here and will be back!

The food is really good, my favorite is the UC Bahn Mi sandwich. The salads that come with them…read moreare great also. I recommend the Chimmichurri Steak and Cranberry Brie sandwiches.

Although there are not a lot of vegan options, there were enough to satisfy us, and we were both pleased with what we ordered. The vegan soup-of-the-day was a mushroom-barley. Flavorful and not too salty! Yay. When I saw that the smoothies were made with fruit and fruit juice, no ice/sherbet/fillers I had to order the Peach-O-Rama. Just what I wanted! We also ordered the Hummus Platter (no feta) and the Buddha Burrito (no cheese, sour cream). The hummus was smooth and had just the right amount of garlic. The veggies were fresh and they did not skimp with the pita. The burrito was so good. We should have ordered another one to-go! The young gentleman taking our order was pleasant, charming with all of the customers, and really seemed to enjoy his job, making this an easy 5-star review. Parking is easy, bathrooms are clean, and there was a plenty of seating to choose from.

Expectations were measured given this is a chain. Would they thrive in the Chicagoland area? Nope…read more Just about any Gyros shop at a random intersection would blow them away. A certain individual tried a similar concept and it lasted about a year. So here I am in CA giving this chain a shot. Food: Pictures are much better than the actual product. Fries were solid, imagine In and Out, but with plenty of seasoning and over salted. The chicken souvlaki was ok, but the pieces were a bit small and didn't taste like they were marinated. The greek salad side was the best part of the meal. I also ordered hummus, which had the taste and consistency of a store bought out of a container random brand. For $5 it was a waste and I left most of it behind. The look of the gyros on the spit did not leave my mouth watering: Grey slab not even fired up to serve. Service: Order is placed at the counter and then he brings it out. I guess enough to earn my 15% tip. Drinks are self serve Pepsi products with two containers of some lemonade type mixtures. Overall: Its price competitive with your local Chipotle,etc. Would I come back here again? Nope.

We ate lunch here today on their lovely patio and loved the food!…read moreMy Philly steak sandwich on a ciabatta roll was chock full of well seasoned roast beef, onions, red bell peppers & melted cheese & came with a kosher pickle spear and a generous serving of kettle cooked potato chips. We shared an order of giant crispy onion rings with a side of ranch dressing for dipping, My hubby had a yummy chicken wrap which he devoured & washed it down with a local beer on draft. Lots of parking in a lovely newer developed retail center just around the corner from the SM Airport. A definite return visit for us!

Employees were welcoming and helpful describing the options. The indoor seating area is nice, but it was so nice outside that I chose to dine on the patio. I loved it at The Roost, and would definitely return next time I'm in the area.

Another Panera location for me to try. I really like Panera and it is perfect with many locations…read moreas I travel around quite a bit. Panera offers healthier options vs fast food and also a nice place to sit, relax and enjoy your meal. Whether working or just hanging out, comfortable spot. The also have their Sip Club, which I highly recommend you joining. You can get a drink, you choice of teas, coffees, soda, lemonade, etc. every two hours everyday. You can pay monthly or yearly. It is a great perk and one I use almost daily. They also have an app where you can earn rewards, discounts and order ahead, so you don't have to wait for your food, also highly recommended you use. The staff is nice, food options can be better for you and an overall casual dining spot to have your meal. This location is near many other businesses with a huge private parking lot, so plenty of parking for you. Enjoy!

My kids and I arrived a little before 11:30 lunch rush and ordered at kiosk. Our food came out promptly but my salad had eggs which were frozen (visible ice around the yolk) and the cherry tomato was soft, while the avocado which looked a little brown/oxidized. All in all, it fell below the mark. There is only one person working the register and helping people with to go containers/food issues/pick ups, etc and they are clearly short staffed during lunch peak. If you need anything, you have to stand around for a while. They refused to give me a to go container for my club sandwich, stating that they could only provide a paper bag. It was evident that cashier simply wanted to get rid of me as soon as possible and had no desire to resolve my simple request. I can't recommend coming here during lunch rush.

The weekend was a blur of driving and activity, and then it was time to head back south toward home. We often stop in Santa Maria for gas. Before they shuttered, we ate at Cracker Barrel a number of times. In the same shopping plaza there's a Habit Burger. We decided to give them a try, have a meal, and decompress from the busy weekend for a short time. Ordering went smoothly. I miss their charbroiled cheeseburgers as I can't tolerate cow's milk cheese anymore. Just a plain burger isn't that interesting to me. Habit does have the option of grilled tuna, which is quite unique in the fast casual dining space. I wasn't that hungry, so opted for their chicken strips, and DH and I shared half and half fries and onion rings. Not the fanciest meal ever, but it was nice to relax together and enjoy decent quality food. Habit seems to source better quality ingredients than some other chain restaurants do. I like that they offer salads, but I wasn't in that mood either. The food was hot and fresh once our order was available and we had the dinner break we needed to push on to the rest of the trip home. Interior of the restaurant was clean. Service was friendly. All good.
