    Ordered a French dip sandwich and the French onion soup. The cheese from the sandwich was on the outside of my bread and they totally forgot the cheese and bread for the soup. So basically $13 for half a sandwich and a cup of au jus. Pretty disappointing.

    Never order delivery from this location! The drivers continually don’t show up. I ordered lunch for an important work meeting last month. The lunch never showed up. I called the restaurant, and the employee I talked to didn’t care at all. He let me know that I needed to contact door dash for a refund (even though I ordered through Panera’s website). I called door dash, and she said the order had been canceled (not by me). Well, I still got a charge on my credit card! I called door dash, and they informed me I had to call Panera. No one at the restaurant ever answered my call. In my experience, no one ever answers the phone at this location. I will not be ordering any work lunches in the future from Panera (especially this location!!)
