I got the new chicken sandwich. It was very good! Its a bit on the expensive side especially when another restaurant nearby has a chicken sandwich too and is much cheaper but there are differences. The bun is a brioche bun with parmesan chips inside. The sauce brings everything together. The sandwich comes in a square box and you can choose this in a pick 2 meal.

Older lady at the counter this morning (with a pink hat on) rolled her eyes for when we needed a second to decide. What a horrible customer service attitude! Others working in the kitchen were nice.

Pick 2 was great. Had the BBQ chicken sandwich and the Thai chicken soup. Cashier was very nice and patient

Food had standard and consistent taste with a lovely crusted baguette. The half soup portion was really tiny though.

Today is my first and last trip to this store. I ordered Pick 2 Tuna and soup. After going back to office with the first bite, it's chicken. I guess they can serve whatever they see fit.

If you ask for extra suace on a sandwich you'll receive less than the standard amount. I've tried giving this Panera another chance but both time it's happened so won't be coming to this location anymore. I would feel bad for people who oay for double meat.

The food is good, but the quality assurance is always terrible here. I always have something from my order missing. This time I ordered the “you pick two” and I didn’t get my soup. Last time it was my drink. The time before that was my cookie. Jeez. I should learn by now to double check before I drive off, but that’s their job, not mine. If I’m paying for an item, I should receive it, period.

Good place, love flat pizza, although my favorite *you pick two* got me little soup and salad for $14. Not worth it.

San Jose native who visited this location while running errands. Ordered through the kiosk, so my party and myself were able to take time in deciding our order. Got the pick 2 combo, which is a great deal- order of grilled cheese and tomato soup. A great selection for a cold, windy day. The ambience was quiet and nice as diners were enjoying their food while studying, working, and relaxing. The only issue was getting our food. We got a pager from the kiosk and sat down at our chosen table. Once the pager buzzed, we were hesitant whether we pick up the food ourselves or will a server bring it to us. Fortunately, we were sitting close to food pick-up counter. If we were sitting farther, we would have simply wandered throughout the dining floor.
