Recently I've had a pretty full schedule at work with so much to do - I have a very limited amount of time for lunch. Decided to try ordering online today; a rare activity for me since I often pack a lunch. The ordering process on Panera.com was so easy! Got to Panera within minutes after leaving the office to pick up my order and THERE IT WAS. On the shelf! Quick. Easy. Convenient. read more

This location unfortunately often has issues. I tell myself I won't go back and I do and put myself through a new bad experience. This time I went before the 12:00 lunch rush hour. I waited for 30 minutes! One worker said to pickup the order by the counter. The woman behind the counter was overwhelmed and annoyed with everyone asking for their meals, that she snapped and said pick up orders on the other side. Just poor communication between staff. They continued to take orders but failed to tell new guest they were 30mins behind on orders. For people stopping in on their lunch break they should know so they can go somewhere else. Once I received my order which was teriyaki bowl. It was not even half full. Every thing was dumped in. It was horrible and looked like a left over dinner. I'm sorry Panera you cannot continue operate this way and think we will continue to come back. Something had got to change. read more

I've been frequenting this location because my pup's vet is across the street....i usually pick up a coffee and the apple-cinnamon crunch muffin which is yummy. Simple, no nonsense....staff always friendly and quick, place clean and convenient. Coffee here is always hot and like other locations, offer a hazelnut flavor....counter freshly stocked with milk, half-n-half, sugar, syrup, etc...never an issue. And if I'm around for lunch, i'll opt for the Pick Two items...that way you get to try the different sandwiches, salads and soups without committing to a large portion but ALL the salads are yummy....can't vouch for the soups as my go-to soup is the tomato or southwestern. YUM! Plenty of outdoor seating so you can bring your doggie and dine comfortably. read more

Should've read the reviews on this place before coming here, but that's what you get when you're hungry and in a hurry. Ordered a chipotle chicken breakfast wrap to with about five orders in front of me. Waited almost 20 minutes to get it. While I was waiting, one of the women ahead of me in line was talking to an employee about how others who ordered after her got their orders before her-- and when her order finally did come out, it was wrong. Food was mediocre. The chipotle sauce was strangely sweet but it was otherwise okay. I guess I won't come back if I'm pressed for time. read more

On this insanely hot summer day (105F in Dublin today :/ ) I was looking to get some light and refreshing lunch. Panera's curbside pickup worked out excellent! Ordered the Fuji Apple and chicken salad using the website and order was ready in 10 mins. Waited at the curbside pick up area in the parking lot and I was handed my salad by a lovely employee (wearing a mask to abide by the Covid rules). Ah, never having to leave the blasting AC in my car was ideal. And the salad was delicious!! Exactly what I wanted. The combination of apple chips, pecans, gorgonzola cheese, and perfectly cooked savory chicken with the sweet white balsamic vinaigrette hit the spot. read more

It's okay. Before, when I visited, it seemed to be a bit ghetto. They had a broken table and the bathroom wasn't very clean. But it looks much better now. You can bypass the line and order at these touch panels to the right. I got 1/2 tuna salad sandwich. It was fine. Bread was fresh, but a little too dense. Tuna salad tasted as expected. Tomato was okay, lettuce was fresh. Not too exciting. Side salad with vinaigrette was also as expected. Like that they have many different combos...each item has many custom options. For example, I added grilled onions and cucumbers to my sandwich. And it worked nicely. DH got a soba broth bowl with chicken. This item is no longer available. I couldn't find it on Panera's website. He says, "It's a nice change from a sandwich". He also had to endure my teasing. Who goes to Panera to order a soba noodle bowl? Lol. DH says, "It was perfectly acceptable for being at Panera." read more

Placed an online order for a large brocolli mac and cheese at this location along with two other items. Collected my order and found out that they gave me a cup of brocolli and cheese soup instead of the brocolli mac and cheese. So called them and they asked me to come back and get the right ordered item. So went back in, spoke to a lady "Anna" who looked at my online order receipt and said you didn't order a large brocollic mac and cheese. Made it sound as though I was wrong and she was doing me a favor by giving me a large brocolli mac and cheese. At no point did she acknowledge or say sorry that they gave me the wrong order and inconvenienced by making me drive 5 miles back and forth 2 times to collect the order. Not sure what kind of customer service this is where the restaurant messes up the order and makes you feel that you are in the wrong for asking them to correct the order. This is not what I expected from Panera bread. read more

I went to the manager to see if I could get it replaced and she was straight up rude saying it wasn't old and she could give me a refund but I kept it since my son wanted to try it but he didn't like it so I went back to get my refund and she was so rude saying I should have done it the first time rolling her eyes at me.

One star for unsatisfactory service. On 5-6-20 @ 1:45 pm I ordered a sandwich online and was supposed to pick it up curbside. When I got to the store I was turned away by Dublin Police because apparently there was some sort of a crime scene going on around the building. I tried waiting for sometime for the cops to finish what they were doing but I ran out of time and I had to leave for work but an employee sitting outside said that she would take my order number and get my card refunded. Apparently that didn't happen because three days later I get a charge on my card. On 5-9-20 @ 6:45 pm I called the store and spoke with the manager who claimed he knew nothing about the incident and would only refund me or make me another sandwich if I show up in person at their store. That's kind of tough for me since I live in Southern California. I was in town for business. Three things I take issue with: 1) They have no problem taking my card online but I have to show up at the store for a refund? That's kind of sleazy. 2) Obviously my sandwich sat in the store unclaimed during this whole incident. Wouldn't a manager with an inkling of common sense figure out what just happened and be proactive about it? How lazy can one be. 3) The conscientious employee who tried to resolve the issue probably brought this up with the manager and the manager just didn't give a sh*t and just blew it off. This isn't about the money. My Fortune 500 employer will not miss the $14 that was put on their card. It's the whole uncaring, unhelpful, and don't give a sh*t attitude that these people put forth. If this is how they act in front of the house I shudder to think what goes on in the kitchen when no one is watching. read more

First let me say I have been patronizing Panera Bread long before they became the large chain they are today and was alway happy with my experience and would have meals with friends there on multiple occasions over the last 10 plus years. However It seems Panera bread is becoming like most fast casual dining experiences They don't seem to be more concerned about their customers dining experience. Tonight I ordered a You Pick two a a fountain drink. After receiving my electronic table tag from the cashier I go to get my drink ( I chose Panera because they offer non soda options ) but come to find out they have taken all the healthy Drink options down an hour before close. Next year order arrives ( Max n Cheese and half Cuban sandwich) I go to ask for butter for the included side of bread and told they are out of butter What Resatuarant/bakery runs out butter ? Really The whole dining experience was less than expected and wll make me think really hard before I visit Panera Bread again anytime soon.

I definitely have a love/hate relationship with this place. When I have to drop my pup off at Banfield for a quick check up or something where I have to wait, I usually pop over for a quick meal or coffee. Either it's very busy here or it's practically empty. Last time I was here, there was someone in front of the cashier which I presumed was ordering something so I just checked around my phone waiting. After a few minutes, the conversation continued and I realized that it wasn't a customer. Either another employee or the cashier's friend was there chatting while a small line grew behind me. Now, I know to order via Rapid pick up or Order from table, no point waiting here as the front of the house is more busy with friends than customers. (This definitely wasn't the first time, normally the conversation pauses or the friend steps to the side for a customer to order - just not this past time I was there). Typically I like ordering a caramel latte and soup for the colder days or an iced caramel latte with a flatbread for the warm weather. The corn chowder or turkey chili is my favorite. Portion sizes here are my favorite as it's all in decent amounts (no giant portions). I really like the caramel latte here as it's not too sweet but still covers my sweet tooth + caffeine addiction. My favorite is to chill in the plush chair in the corner on my phone or laptop while enjoying a quick meal/coffee while waiting for the puppers (sorry buddy! It's for his own good!). Final Thoughts: Prices always decent (well it's set) and the MyPanera rewards program is nice. Whether it be a meal or a snack, there's something for every size of meal needed. No complaints of the food yet but definitely eh about the customer service for this Panera location. read more

I love Panera bread and have eaten in dozens of locations around the United States. However, the Amador Plaza restaurant in Dublin Ca is unquestionably the worse run Panera I have ever eaten at. A few weeks ago, I ordered a coffee with a breakfast sandwich. ALL of the large coffee urns were empty. I informed an employee, waited a few minutes thinking I'd soon have coffee for my breakfast. They did nothing about it and pretended like I never said anything. At this point there is now another customer and I standing around waiting for the coffee to be refilled. 5 minutes later said something to another employee.. now there is 3 customers (including me) waiting for someone to brew more coffee)... another 10 minutes and I finally asked for a refund. 20 minutes from the time I informed the employees there still wasn't coffee. Noting the store was practically empty... it wasnt like they were super busy filling orders. I figured I'd give them another chance at breakfast this morning. Again only a few tables with customers, only one register open and no lines. I came to the restaurant craving a cup of coffee and a spinach-artichoke souffle (so good!). Thankfully there was coffee.... but two of the four breakfast souffles (inclined spinach-artichoke) were sold out (at 8:45am on a weekend!!). It then took 20 minutes to make the dang breakfast sandwhich in a mostly empty restaurant. Seriously??? The manager in this restaurant needs to be replaced and the employees retrained! read more

I travel and have eaten at Panera all over the country. This is by far the worst. I placed a curb side order and was left waiting. When I went inside, multiple employees were playing on their cell phones. On another trip, I placed a pick up order that included a salad. They forgot the dressing. When I called to see if there was a delivery service, the employee acted as if it wasn't his problem. He was down right rude, as if I interrupted him on an order they messed up.

This place makes me sad. The quality of food and service have definitely gone down the drain. I used to come here all the time for lunch, because 1) they have a pretty wide variety of items to choose from (for those days where I'm starving, but just don't know what I want) and 2) their super convenient app that allows me to make the most of my 1 hour lunch. My most recent visit, yesterday, will most probably be my last visit ever. I ordered my food using their app. Just half a sandwich with a bag of chips. I received the confirmation e-mail with a pick up time of 12:35 PM. When I got there, I kid you not, there must have been AT LEAST 20 people standing and waiting around in the "Rapid Pick-Up" area. I have never seen it that busy. Customers who were seated for "for-here" orders were flagging down workers, asking for an ETA of their food, too. I understand that they get extremely busy during lunch, but omg. When an order was ready, the staff would walk around calling out the order, looking for who it belonged to. I don't see why they couldn't just put it on the "Rapid Pick-Up" shelf and move on? There was no real sense of urgency at all. I had to get back to work, so I went to the register at around 1:05 PM and asked if I could just get a refund (..which I'm still awaiting to hit my bank account). At that point, the employees were telling people who just walked in that there was a 40 minute wait. And if I'm being honest, a 40 minute wait for Panera just isn't worth it- not even on a good day lol. read more

The menu itself isn't extensive, but mostly just noodle focused based, with some of the variations of what the base and meats are, and of course the cold dishes that typically comes with a beef noodle eating experience. Price wise, it's not cheap, but for beef noodle places there's not too many of those places around, and if they are around they're usually not that great. The place isn't huge, but there are a fair number of tables in there all closeish together. Again, not a large place, so mostly smaller tables, but can certainly be pieced together for larger parties. Service here was good, no issues. Let's talk food! The cold dishes were good. Nothing out of the ordinary, but one thing that is good even though the cost of them are a bit high is that the quantity they give you is at least a decent amount. If you like the cold dishes, you will get plenty with each order. Now to the noodles. We got a chow mein style noodles and then of course the beef noodle soup. The chow mein noodles were not bad, but wasn't out of the ordinary. It was tasty and I would be happy to eat it again. The beef noodle soup was definitely tasty. The noodles here, in both the chow mein and in the noodle soup were nice quality and texture, just the right QQness to them. The beef in the beef noodle soup is where most restaurants tend to struggle with, particularly the chain dumpling places that offers beef noodle soup and when it arrives, they're just the beef slices from the appetizer dish. Not here, these were actual chunks of beef that have been cooked for awhile and actually stewed. They were good and plentiful in this soup. All-in-all, CA Noodles is a good option for some good beef noodles if you're ever in the mood. The place isn't big, so they may get filled pretty quickly depending on the time of day, and the actual day. Worth the visit.

Will probably appreciate it more when the temps aren't consistently hovering over 100 degrees. Will definitely want to explore more of the menu to hopefully find additional favorites.

I was in town because of a family photoshoot and afterwards we wanted to eat! This place was…read morerecommended by our photographer and it did not disappoint! It was early dinner time on a Friday evening and it wasn't overly crowded. All 6 of us got different items and overall it's a matter of preference for what kind of broth and protein you'd like that depicts the meal, the toppings are generally all the same. Consider this place to almost be a "make your own ramen" type of thing, in that you're given a platter of toppings to add to your bowl of steaming hot broth, mix it and let it sit, then voila! It's ready to eat. For a rainy winter evening, it was perfect to have some tasty noodle soup!

Loved this place and was so excited to try it out! I really love the environment inside as well…read moreit's super laid back but also looks pretty well kept for a nice outing with loved ones. The service was really good, they are super on top of cleaning and serving so my food came out in about 15-20 minutes. I got the combo with an appetizer, drink, and noodle soup. The portions were pretty generous. -grapefruit tea: thought it was pretty yummy! I also tried out the super fruit tea and i really liked it but personally found it to be a little too sweet. Not too much to displease though! I mixed some water and it was perfect for me. -tomato beef brisket noodle soup: i was surprised by how tender the meat was and how much they actually give you. If you love tomato soups as much as i do then it's definitely a great option! -takoyaki & lamb skewers: my sister had one dish from her combo order and i has my own but was able to try both! The lamb skewers were a bit smaller than expected but were flavorful with a fragrant aroma. The takoyaki came in about 5 balls and while they didn't include all typical takoyaki toppings it was still pretty good considering it came as a combo! Overall, i really loved coming by this place, my main concern is that it's actually in a pretty busy plaza so parking can be a little difficult during peak business hours. Otherwise it's located in a really great area relatively close to some shopping areas such as the Livermore outlets or even other smaller shopping plazas. Give this place a try if you're in the area and looking for a good eat without breaking the wallet!

The iron was pretty good, plus I ate a little bit off of my wife's bowl, both came out pretty quickly. We were there before a heavy dinner rush so the service was fast, I'm not sure how they would do if the restaurant was busy.

I was really craving Japanese curry and my favorite place is Coco Ichibanya in southern california and although this place is not as good as my favorite place, it was still pretty good and hit the spot for my craving. I got the chicken karaage curry and added vegetables and an egg to it. I was sad they didn't have a Japanese omelette style egg but this fried egg still hit the spot. I believe I got spicy level 2, but it was not spicy at all for me. I do love spice though so I may not be a reliable source for spice levels...

Orders: House Salad Bowl had a beautiful array of red cabbage, lettuce, spinach, shaved carrot slices, edamame w/shell all tossed in a Demiya Yasai dressing. The salad was fresh & colorfully vibrant. The only preference I would have is that the edamame shell be removed so it is easier to eat. Other than the edamame, I would order this again. The Katsu Curry Chicken was generously portioned & the chicken not overly cooked so that it is dry. What always stands out for us is the curry sauce. It has the desirable heat, the taste & consistency that we look forward to. The Katsu Curry Pork was a noticeable size smaller than the chicken but all the components of the sauces remained the same as for the chicken curry. Since this is a small restaurant, the standing room is very limited & a small bench that is in the narrow pathway of the staff's entering & exiting the kitchen makes it a little cramped. So I would recommend either getting an early start to your lunch or dinner meals to avoid the busy crowd & standing room space.

YGF Malatang & Hotpot

Since Master Gua closed here in San Leandro, my family and I have been bummed, missing our malatang…read morefix. My cousin discovered YGF and I was shocked realizing that it's like a 30-second drive from my office and couldn't believe I hadn't noticed it before. We took the short drive out to Dublin to get lunch here on a Sunday afternoon and while there was almost no one inside when we got in line to fill our bowls, by the time we paid and sat down the line had suddenly blown up and the place was booming. Compared to Master Gua, YGF has fewer vegetable options (no broccoli, for example), but I believe they have even more meats than Master Gua did. So it's a tradeoff, depending on what you're in the mood for. All of the ingredients were super fresh and there's a pretty wide assortment of things to choose from. As with other malatang places, you take your bowl of stuff up to the counter, weigh it, and they tell you the price based on the weight. Then you choose your broth from a few different options. YGF has even more than Master Gua did, but I still went with my old standard, the Sichuan spicy hot pot broth (which is described as being medium spicy here). You can add a bowl of steamed rice on the side for a couple bucks, which I did. The food came out pretty quickly and was fantastic. My husband, brother, and cousin all got one of the bone broths (I think they all went with the beef), which is their go-to. We were all incredibly happy with our meals. The meat was cooked tender and the vegetables weren't overdone. The staff were all super nice and kept coming around to refill water. When it came time to pay, they came to the table with a mobile POS rather than having us go up to the counter to pay. I think this is going to become our new malatang place, given the convenient location, great food, and friendly service.

The inside is packed with tables but more geared towards smaller parties. For bigger parties they may need to move the tables together. The inside is very cutely decorated, and you get a large assortment of ingredients for your soup. Pricing is pretty standard its about $15.99/lb. I enjoyed the hotpot, came out super fast (~10 minutes) and they gave large bowls for sharing between my partner and I. I think the soup broth flavor was not as savory as I had hoped but still sweet and good. While everything was very good, this place is in a very competitive area of food spots. I did enjoy the food but I wouldn't say it's the best of the best soup broth. They have about 5-6 different flavorings/cooking styles but i think some places tend to have more. I enjoyed the food and I think I would come back to try other things. I think they do have a large ingredient selection making for a unique hotpot experience.

Mmm, there's nothing like a veggie sandwich on a hot day! I love this place, it's so convenient & the atmosphere is nice too, I love the outdoor seating area & they're pet friendly here too! They've never messed up my order at this location & the veggies are always crisp & fresh, they put more pesto sauce on my sandwiches here too, which is awesome! The place is always clean & the service is usually pretty quick too! I think the need more small one person sized tables though, for the idiots that take up an entire table or booth just to sit on their laptop for 3hrs & not even eat anything.

Overall a 4.5 out of 5, to be honest I never eaten here but I've done a few take out orders. So far, I never had any major problems or complaints about the food and service. The pastries and breads have been very good to solid and the few sandwiches and salads I've ordered in the past have been pretty good. The hostess or cashier have always been patient and courteous. As for the place itself, inside has always been or appeared to be clean and bright, overall a very nice casual place to drink some coffee or just grab a small bite to eat. read more
