This restaurant is pretty roomy and well-lit, thanks to those big windows letting in lots of natural light. It's a great place to get some work done—they've got plenty of outlets if you need to use your laptop—or to hang out with a big group since they've got loads of spacious tables and comfy chairs.
Their menu's got a bunch of different options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and everything looks really good. I especially liked the spinach and cheese shuffle; it tasted fantastic.
The only downside is that it's a bit pricey. The amount of food you get compared to what you pay seems a bit off. Still, it's a cool spot to check out if you're up for a fancier dining experience.
Panera is still pretty standard franchise. Walk up ordering still available, several kiosks also provided for the anti-social. We opted for their Pick Two combo and a small soup. Complimentary French baqueté served with both orders. Caesar dressing was pretty bland and without the needed kick. The tomato soup was pretty hearty.
My wife and I stopped in this evening for a light dinner after a weekend out of town. Restaurant was clean throughout. Our order was taken by an extremely friendly young lady and the food was prepared quickly, both of us getting salads. Mine was the in-season strawberry poppyseed with chicken. It was very fresh and the vinaigrette was very tasty.
Only issue was I had very little green lettuce as part of the mix, with almost all of it the whitest parts of iceberg lettuce. Recommend that be something looked at by management, as there really is no nutritional value with that, and it's not overly appetizing. All the other ingredients were very fresh and good.
A little on the pricey side, though. Two salads and two medium drinks cost $30. Wow, prices just continue to rise...
