    This Panera Bread location has the prettiest outdoor seating area that's so perfect and welcoming!! Passing through the town, I'm so glad I stumbled upon this restaurant. The inside is super spacious and open, the windows adding to the beautiful interior. Staff was also super friendly and kind, answering any questions I had and even giving me a water bowl for my dog. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and hope I can visit again when I am in the area next. Thanks, Panera!!

    Slowest service in drive through history. I ordered my food on the app. I have been sitting in the drive through for well over the time I was told to be here.

    Sandwich and soup!!

    Stopping for a snack but ended up getting dinner. We ordered the 2 for 2! (1/2 sandwich and soup) One turkey and avocado BLT ( just a little too much mayonnaise for my taste) but...YUMM!- along with a chicken noodle soup. The other sandwich was a bacon turkey bravo- which was very delicious according to my husband- along with the onion soup! We also took advantage of the 99 Cents pastry along with our meal! Loved the fact I had a free pastry- so we had 3 pastries in total...a win win situation! It never disappoints... Love coming to our E-Town Panera!

    And the sign which is where I park at...get signage that actually shows what you you need people to do

    I only have you a one star as that is the lowest I can go, I placed my order on the website, drove to the restaurant l, sent the information that I had arrived, and proceeded to wait almost 30 minutes for curdside, ai finally called and they tell me that can't find me well I followed the only signage I saw, out front, and they had my phone number but didn't bother to call, them when we went to the park to eat the cold food, the grilled cheese I had asked to have the crust cut off from was half fixed so cold it was stick to the paper, and then the soup I ordered as to eat in the eat, guess what I didn't even have a spoon, so I have to wait even longer until I finally get home, so very disappointed, and now I remember why this is actually the first time this year I have bothered to dine here, and I won't be returning too expensive and crappy service, sad

    Forever out of something

    This is my second time having lunch here…read more Today, I was in town for a business lunch. I had the En Fuego Burger and Seasoned Fries. My client had The Newberry Single Burger and Tots. Service was fast and the food was excellent. Next time, I will try to check out their Speakeasy, the Cavern Club.

    Sunday, 18 January 2026…read more Met friends at J.R. Neighbors for lunch. According to my friend, the have the best burgers in Etown! ‍ There are a few parking spaces directly in front of the restaurant (maybe 5, with 2-3 slots being reserved for handicap). There are nearby parking lots with plenty more parking. As it was a Sunday, we had no trouble finding parking. There were a few people ahead of us, maybe three different parties. My partner and I did not have to wait to be seated since the friends we were meeting had already arrived and got a table. We greeted our friends then reviewed the menu. Since it was around 12ish on a Sunday, only the brunch menu was available. Not long after, our waitress arrived to take drink orders. Shortly after that, and after the drinks arrived - pineapple mimosas, apple juice, and water, we ordered our food...mostly everyone had a burger. I had the Texan burger/sandwich which came on a Texas toast, hence the name, and my partner had the Newberry Smash burger (double). Each came with a choice of "regular" fries or tots. I wanted sweet potato fries, but again, since it was Sunday, only the brunch menu and what was displayed was available. So, I settled for regular fries. My burger was good albeit a bit messy with the sunny side egg running everywhere! The bacon topping the burger was perfectly done with the right crispy/crunchy consistency. My mimosas was refreshing except I did not get much of a pineapple taste. The fries were fresh and appropriately seasoned, not too salty and not too bland, just right. We were all full from our meals so we did not even consider dessert! The restaurant was busy but not overly crowded, so the atmosphere was quite. We sat by the windows and were not even distracted by the outside vehicles passing by. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and would recommend J.R. Neighbors to anyone looking for good burgers in a good atmosphere in Etown.

    Wow. Yeah best gyro's in the area to include Louisville. We got the gyro sandwich and the gyro…read moreplatter, and I'd suggest you get the platter. I think there is a price difference of a couple dollars. The portion of gyro meat with both the sandwich and the platter is very generous. I actually got two meals off the platter. The place is small but it's big enough and bright and clean. The owner is super friendly, but since they're preparing things as you order, service isn't the fastest but maybe that's better. He prepared the fries and my chicken wings to order as well as the meat whether it be lamb or chicken. In addition to chicken and lamb gyros, they have a variety of platters; kofta, falafel, shawarma, grilled shrimp and Philly beef. Don't know about the last one, I guess it could be good. The lamb tasted great, no gaminess at all, the vegetables were fresh and the tzatziki sauce tied everything together for a delicious bite. The rice and salad were great compliments to my gyro platter. On an impulse, I got the wings, and after one bite was ecstatic that I did. They did not look like they were gonna be good and maybe to others they may not be. I think they're frozen out of a big bag, pre-made just need to throw it in the fryer for a few minutes. Anyway it had this weird orange hue to it just like the friend chicken from Pioneer Chicken . If you grew up on the west coast or Hawaii that was the competing friend chicken chain to KFC. I think there's only one restaurant left in Los Angeles. This fried chicken still haunts my dreams, I have half a mind to road trip it to California for a family pack of delicious fried chicken. Sorry, I digress. Anyway this fried chicken wings tasted a whole lot like Pioneer Chicken. As I started this review, best gyros in the area, plus their rice wrapped in grape leaves and the baklava were very good.

    We came here for dinner and it is our first visit; 4 kids & 3 adults…read more Attentive staff. Young & new to the sushi concept, but it's central Kentucky, for goodness' sake. What do you expect - some Shinto shrine with a Taiko drum show? Anyway, Amelia, our waitress, was kind and helpful. The food was tasty overall, especially the fried rice & seaweed salad. The yellowtail had been on ice too long & while still good, lost a bit of its proper tang when truly fresh. Again - it wasn't spoiled but sashimi demands that crisp, fresh snap when you bite into it. The canned soda thing ... not a fan. Perhaps it's a cost thing but at least don't show cases of soda in view & along the path to the john. The shrimp tempura & spicy tuna rolls were solid winners, & our guest had never had miso soup or real sushi until this meal. She's very happy, and so are we. Like I said, overall it was a good meal. But sushi joints need a staff that's crackerjacking & knowledgeable about this experience. Hardin County in general and ETown in particular are growing fast. Places like Wasabi need to rise to that challenge & train that staff to be on the nose about the menu & the sushi experience in particular. The owner spoke with us as we left. Very kind and gracious lady. We'll be back. The kids loved the food AND the fish tank!

The waitress told us before we ordered of everything they were out of. One was white gravy. I had been torn between the Country Fried steak and their Spaghsana (some kind of spaghetti lasagna fusion). So the steak was out because of the gravy and I ordered the Spaghsana. After she put the order in she came back and said they were out of something for the Spaghsana so I ordered the pork chops with mashed potatoes & carrots. My wife ordered the Monte Cristo and was looking forward to their crescent rolls but they were cold when they're usually served hot appearing to be somewhat fresh. One big one and one half the size of the other. The paper they serve them on was burned on the corner. Not just singed, burned back a few inches. Didn't even have the care for quality's sake to replace the cheap piece of paper. Wow, that's bad. She said the Monte Cristo wasn't as good as usual. My pork chops were dry. I could only eat one as I just didn't want to eat any more. Chops and sides appeared to be pre-cooked and reheated. Another sign of a soon to fail restaurant. Very likely a corporate decision to prepare food this way to maximize profits. They call themselves a scratch kitchen giving the illusion that everything is cooked from scratch. Scratch my a$$. What kind of scratch ingredients were they out of for the gravy? Flour? Milk? Grease? Pepper? Couldn't be pepper as there was some on every table. Who runs out of the other stuff? They're staples in any kitchen. Or is it really not a scratch kitchen and their pre-made gravy wasn't delivered? Cut the order short? Or just poor management? The waitress said their staff was thin which sending staff home early is another sign of cutting back to maximize profits. My Caesar salad wasn't even Romaine now that I think of it. I think it was Iceberg with Caesar dressing. It was even turning brown in spots as if it was past its 'best by' date. All of the staff... the remaining staff was as nice as they could be though. We had decided if she said they were out of anything else, we were just going to leave. The sweet tea was good. That's a plus. We had eaten here many times but tonight was our last. Im sure I'll see soon that this location is closed. Although I've lived in Kentucky all of my life, this appears to be on par with most restaurants in this part of the state. Poor. The place was a bit dirty. There was even a piece of a pork chop on the floor underneath the table were some guy tried to stab it with a fork and it was so tough that it shot off the table. Well, I'm sure that's what happened as I was the guy.
