    My professor always goes here but I have no idea why. It's just your average panera with mediocre soups and breads. to each their own but it gets way too crowded for kids. Still, the worker at the front was very nice so 3/5 stars.

    I only ever enter a Panera when I really need to pee. They let you use the restroom if you buy something. The price to piss is getting steep! 4 dollars for a chocolate chip cookie. Bathroom was clean at least.

    The food is fine, but the receptionists are getting increasingly rude at this place. Especially there's this older woman in black spectacles that will not even greet you if you enter the restaurant (and treats you quite poorly, unless you look well dressed). It used to a be joy to dine here when there were better people in the reception.

    This is hands down the best Panera I have ever visited and I can safely say I have been to at least 20 different Paneras! Friendly staff! Helpful! Both times I visited the amount of food seemed larger than other Paneras! I couldn’t eat all of my chicken pesto ciabatta dipper! (Although I have to admit I think I was shorted on the dipping sauce because it only lasted for half the sandwich)! The restaurant was also very clean. This will be my go to Panera when in the Sacramento area.
