I'm a sucker for the green goddess salad at Panera, and the many drink options! The pick two is my favorite when I can't decide on something. They often make mistakes at this location and get the order wrong, but they correct it if you let them know at least. This location is quick and clean!

Here how I got my sourdough bread sliced and bagged today! Please teach your employees importance of customer care!

Arrived to pick up a large order for a work meeting at 7am on a Friday and found a homemade note on the door posting new hours. Your website still notates a 7am opening, but your homemade note states 8am. How frustrating and terrible business!

Achoo! Excuse me. It seems every time I come to Panera, I have a cold. The wife and I love the Big Kid or Fontina grilled cheese sandwich along with some of their delicious tomato soup. Nothing warms us up better than the soup- in a bread bowl- or not. Either way, delicious. I have most recently discovered their breakfast menu and am currently going on the tour for those options. The Burnsville location has one downside and that is parking. It sucks. It's not their fault though, it's mostly the ninja mall customers parking to sneak into Dick's sporting goods. The store is always clean and the staff is always friendly. Service speeds tend to be a bit slow here so you will find yourself meandering by the fountain drink station waiting for your food. This is the case mostly with to-go orders. If you're eating in-store, they give you a buzzer to hold onto at a table of your choice. Overall it's a valid noms option if you're in the Burnsville Center area and you're trying to avoid Applebee's (as you really should). Their sandwiches are delicious, pastries are delicious and of course, their bread. Stop by for breakfast especially and some grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup if you're under the weather!

I was unfortunately disappointed with my visit to the Burnsville Panera. I am an avid visitor and love to get their Mac and cheese. Today I was given something that resembled their signature dish, but was not the smooth, creamy white sauce. The dish was cold, clumpy cheese and I ended up throwing over half of it away. Normally I would brush this off as a one time thing, but has happened to me once before at this Panera and this location only. I would rather have gone to Target to get the Mac and cheese the in refrigerated section for a lower price than stop in today. I will still continue to visit this location while close by, but will choose another when convenient.

Latest 'tiny' sandwich from Panera. Was told this is the 'standard' amount of meat so it was made correctly.

I have been here twice now and had the prime rib and pork chop. The pork was surprisingly good…read more They don't offer prime rib every day. The salad bar was extremely good and filled up on it. They even let me take my leftovers home from the salad bar. The service was friendly but way under staffed and place was nearly empty. Not sure if they will make it.

Drinks took 15 minutes though it wasn't busy. We were surprised to see, realistically, only 3 cuts of steak on the menu since it's not Fri/Sat and prime rib is not available. No decent white wine options for those of us that like sweet wines. Manhattan was automatically served "up"; we were not asked if we wanted it up or on the rocks. Tasted like whiskey, not bourbon so we'll be interested to see how much we're charged (I did see him pour Jameson in there and it tasted like cinnamon for some reason - $10.50). Salads were wilted. Ribeye was slightly overcooked and tough - fat not fully rendered. Hardly any cheese on the "loaded" baked potatoes - had to search for it. No salt on the outside of the potatoes left them bland, on of them was undercooked. If not for garlic butter, the steaks would have been bland, too. BBQ sauce missing on the BBQ burger - made up for by buying us one of the only TWO desserts. No refills offered on sodas. Got a box from the host and the bartender (our server) was so busy talking to a regular at the rail to get us the dessert he offered. Brownie was cold - as in chilled. Was expecting it to be at least room temp if not warm. Drinks were not listed on our check. We brought it to his attention and he added the alcohol, but not the sodas. Bartender told another table he didn't know what unoaked wine is. Know your products!! Also, if employees are going to talk bad about customers, they should not do it in front of other guests.

In all fairness, when I was leaving, one of the workers was heading back with a mop and bucket. With all that said, I still wanted to try the food. I just changed my order from "eat in" to "to go". I ordered L4. Lunch special. Shrimp lo mean and paid the extra 50 cents for an egg roll. The egg roll was tasty, especially for 50 cents. The lo main was very good tasting. The shrimp were small but plentiful. I have to agree with a previous review, the chicken rice definitely tastes like something out of a box. Nothing I would call a fried rice. The portion was plentiful, especially since this was a lunch special. If you can overlook the overall shape of the restaurant and the chicken fried rice, it's not bad.

We've tried a few different items here multiple times and it's always decent. My coworker thinks it's the best around here, you do have to go out farther for more authentic Asian food. The portions are big for me but I tend to not eat a lot but I will have multiple meals with this. It's a good deal for $10. You can pick from an appetizer and what rice you want. I like the amount of sweet and sour sauce they give you for your chicken!

Plenty of parking in the shared lot. The interior of this space is fairly generic, but clean. Service was ROUGH! Their ice machine was "broken" so we had room temperature water, which was unfortunate given the spice level of the food. The heat inside was kicked up too high, so we were uncomfortably sweating. The order our food was delivered...entree #1, app #1, entree #2, app #2, all about 5 minutes apart (insert scratching head emoji). The server also didn't ask how spicy we wanted the Panang curry, and it came out blazing. I guess I'm just accustomed to them asking about Spice Level, especially in Minnesota. The food was great, so that redeemed the location amongst their service woes. Freshly fried Cream Cheese Wontons were little pillows of goodness. The Pork Egg Rolls were crispy and filled with flavor. My Pad Thai was very saucy, which I appreciated since sometimes places leave the dish too dry. The Panang Curry had good flavor, but as described above, was VERY spicy. Might give this spot another chance when I'm craving takeout, but likely won't dine in again.

The ceiling is decorated with mason jars, which gives the restaurant such a unique and charming feel. The restaurant was clean, the service was excellent, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. We came to try some Minnesota specialties, including the walleye. Unfortunately, the sauce served with it contains alcohol, so I wasn't able to have it. There wasn't an alternative sauce available, so I had the fish plain. I don't think that really did the walleye justice, so it wasn't my favorite dish. Some of the other items were also a bit hit-or-miss for my personal taste, but that's more about my preferences than the quality of the food. One thing we really loved was the adorable bakery and ice cream counter at the front of the restaurant. Grabbing ice cream before we left was the perfect ending to our meal. Overall, this is a beautiful restaurant with great service and a fun atmosphere. If you're looking to try Minnesota fare in a welcoming setting, I'd definitely recommend giving it a visit.

We ordered the Minnesota Sampler, which included hot dish, chicken pot pie, and pot roast, giving us a nice variety of local favorites. The hot dish was our favorite of the three. It's hard to go wrong with a dish topped with crispy tater tots, and we really enjoyed it. The chicken pot pie and pot roast were decent, but they didn't stand out as much. One of the dishes included blue cheese, and its flavor was so strong that it overpowered the rest of the meal. Overall, the food was good and gave us a chance to try some regional specialties, but it wasn't a meal that really wowed us. It's worth a visit if you're looking to sample traditional Minnesota comfort food, but we didn't find it to be an exceptional dining experience.
