- JLJohn LyonNov 16, 20251.0Every time I get food from here, there's always something wrong with the order. This time it was half of a sandwich missing. I had quit ordering from here for awhile because I got tired of the constant disappointment, but tonight I decided to give them another shot.. never again.
- JLJessica LangfordNov 13, 20252.0I don’t even know where to begin. My boss allowed us to use his card to order catering from here and the order and service we received this time was terrible. We have ordered from this location NUMEROUS times and have always had wonderful experiences, but this time makes us not want to order here again. I will preface this by saying that I have met two of the catering people before Akyra (I apologize if I spelt that wrong) and Briana and they were both wonderful! So sweet and professional and ON TIME!!! This new girl, Alyssa, IS HORRIBLE. She was so late, our order was all wrong, and I’m not sure what her game was but WE DON’T CARE THAT YOU ARE PREGNANT!!! Telling us that 5+ times is not an excuse, nor is it going to get you a bigger tip. Sorry, not sorry. Make sure to call and see who will be in charge of catering on the day of your order because if that girl makes my food again I will be furious.
- ASAlexus SnowNov 13, 20252.0First off. I would say 5 star to the other manager (she worked great with her team you could tell) and employees before a car ran into the building. Was never disappointed awesome people great consistency with product. Hopefully they didn't lose their job due to the car crash If so that’s sad they should have been paid until the store re opened. Ordered the French dip today it was good! But it was rang In wrong so had to wait longer they fixed it thank you. But the energy is bad needs old management back Cashier was rude to my mom last week and if you’re like me and her the wild rice soup all the time you know how it should look and taste. It was watery and hardly any rice or anything in it. Food has declined already. Sadly my food has been bad the past 2 visits for the first time ever. Will not return
- MKMike KelleherNov 9, 20251.0Slowwwwwwest place ever. Ironically they force you to use their "fast lane" kiosks which adds to the ridiculous delay. I could bake bread and make a sandwich with the bread quicker than this place.
- DCDoc CheryNov 1, 20252.0The fruit cup was only half full, the top of the bun for the avocado egg white sandwich was stale, pecan braid was much smaller than usual, and DoorDash didn’t think this warranted compensation . Panera’s has gone downhill for sure
