    The food was standard Panera food. Luckily they had the black bean soup back. The experience was not great as the counter person was very very slow and simple orders need to be repeated. The person handing us the food tried to deny that the pager going off meant that our food was ready. Not a great experience!

    Very disappointed as I have eaten here many times. I ordered the half and half, the sandwich bread was real soggy and the chicken walnut was placed on the bread in one clump, no time taken to spread it out, the salad was all lettuce with too many tortilla strips. On top of that I paid $18.00.
