Delicious mac and cheese, mini brownie bites, and the blueberry lavender cold tea from the Sip Club--so refreshing! Excellent service by Breanna, Josh, Eric, Xavier, all staff--they all deserve special holiday recognition. Clean, inviting environment. Perfect spot for studying, working, and getting things done, increasing, productivity. God bless!

Pick 2 meal combo

$28 for a half a sandwich chips and cup of soup meal deal with lemonade is wild. Soup was old, I'll drive extra to stonefire grill next time. Food was mid especially for the price.

Another Panera location for me to try. Consistent experience from location to location. I really enjoy being able to go to a Panera in LA and a Panera in Ohio or anywhere and enjoy the same great food, same great service and comfortable surrounding. This location is right off Ventura Blvd. parking lot is in the rear, although it can get tight at times, but parking should be good. You can also park in the front on Ventura Blvd. if need be. Entrance in front and back as well. Their food, pastries, baked goods and fruit is fresh and have plenty of healthy options vs many casual sit down spots or fast food locations. I can feel good about visiting here for lunch or dinner and get a healthy meal anytime. I do recommend looking for deals, coupons, etc. as it can get pricey. Thankfully, they normally have promos, deals, coupons, etc. to help if you look for them. Also, I highly recommend joining the Sip Club, you pay a monthly or yearly fee to get unlimited drinks every two hours everyday, great deal. My go to is the Ranch Cobb salad with chicken, yum! Enjoy!

While this is a nice location on the inside, I was a little disappointed in my experience here. The cashier however was super nice and professional! I went in for breakfast and got a bagel and cream cheese and a coffee. Their bagel selection is kind of limited, but they are decent bagels. I ordered my bagel to go and they gave it to me with the cream cheese on the side. I wish they put it on the bagel for you! I was also excited to get a cup of the hazelnut coffee. The coffee area was nice and organized, but the coffee wasn't hot. I asked someone behind the counter if I could get a fresh cup of the hazelnut coffee, and they poured me some from the fresh pot in the back. However, it still wasn't hot. The temperature was warm at best. I hadn't visited a Panera in a really long time, and I'm not in a big rush to go back.

Panera Bread has always been one of my favorite spots to eat since I first discovered them back when I worked foe the city - it was my daily lunch choice. I became even a bigger fan when I found out that instead of throwing away their daily freshly baked items, they donate it to organizations that feed the homeless communities. Now, I find out they also participate in the TooGoodToGo program (app) where they sell for a minimal fee surprise bags, in this case $5.49, again, instead of throwing away the items not purchased. I was pleasantly surprised with my bag. I was able to choose what I wanted from the bakery items. I chose all my favorites. Panera is at the top of my list. I also purchased dinner while I was there and had a half asian salad with chicken noodle soup, a bag of chips and baguettes with a large passion green tea (my favorite green tea on the planet). The customer service was top notch and the place was clean. They have meter parking in the front and parking in the rear. I will be back.

This Panera's got a nicer vibe than the one in Studio City for sure. Ordered a salad and BBQ chicken sandwich. Sandwich was just OK, but I threw some salad in there, and it took it up a notch. Pro tip: mix it up!

Italian sub
John J.

The term Value has gone out of the window. Reluctantly, after getting outraged by Fat Sal's I went to Panera. At least I was respected as a customer, in contrast to @fatsals. I felt like having an Italian sub. For the older people, do you remember getting a nice crispy Italian roll, with Italian dressing loaded with salami, mortadella and provolone cheese garnished with shredded lettuce and tomato? Well either that memory in mind, I got on the inshore computer and saw a good looking sub. So I ordered it. What a disappointment. The only good fact about the sandwich was the bread. It was tasty. I could hardly taste the meat in the sandwich. It was more like Cuban Panini than an Italian sub. I remember when I had my chain of restaurants, we put five ounces of meat on our sandwiches. It was no wonder we sold more than a thousand sandwiches daily. That is including catering orders. How do these places like Panera and Fat Sal's stay in business? How? I am stunned. I guess due to shortness of time and lack of good options people go for convenience. Maybe I should get back into restaurant business.

1/2 oh turkey cheddar sandwich
David H.

Amazing Turkey & Cheddar. I love that it comes as two snall sandwiches making it easy to eat. ( attach pictures just one of the sandwiches). Americano iced was strong & refreshing. The manager was helpful and went above and beyond. Easy parking on the street in front or a small lot in the rear. Great selection of Breads and Pastries besides soups, sandwiches on all sorts of things..

Greek Salad
Ron W.

All good this visit - was able to use my $ 2 off coupon for one of their new sandwiches . They followed my specs and added cucumber and cut in half as requested- bravo !!

Container filled less than 1/4 full
Kate S.

I hate leaving a bad review but I genuinely hope this changes because it's happened to me the past few times. I usually order a salad and every time I receive it, the dressing containers are less than 1/4 of the way filled. I even ordered extra dressing (and paid extra btw) and even though I received 4 containers, they all had barely any dressing in them. Certainly not enough for the entire salad. If anyone from Panera is seeing this, please ask your employees to make sure to actually fill the containers. It's such a disappointment when you get home and realize the mistake.

I just discovered this place through Yelp, and the Donkey's Revenge is my new go-to salami…read moresandwich. The bread is perfect, and for me, the amount of salami and cheese are perfect, too. Some places pile on way too much, but this is perfection for me. Fast, friendly service, too.

The challenge was real, find a nearby local spot with decent submarine sandwich's. So I did what I…read morealways do, pull up Yelp. I was intrigued when I saw a spot that I had never heard of with a good yelp rating, I had to check it out. After reading a few of the reviews, and looking at the photographs I was sold. The Antidote delivery was close by, but let me tell you I had difficulty finding it. I want to make sure that others are aware of the challenge because it is definitely worth it. The issue is the signage. I was confident when I walked in and told Arthur, the gentleman behind the counter, that there was no sign, indicating Antidote Delivery, he politely corrected me. It turns out that next to the "market" sign there is an exclamation mark Which shows antidote delivery. My eyes went right over it and I never saw it, as a result I found myself circling around, trying to find the correct location. Once you find it, you may be hesitant to enter thinking that this is just a liquor store. In fact, this market has been here for 25 years and they prepare a fresh submarine sandwich that is delicious. So here is what you need to know upfront, the ambience is not desirable, so plan on a takeout. But if you're looking for a local business with a fresh delicious submarine sandwich, I would give this a try. Arthur was very kind to explain that they do deliveries within 5 miles for $2.99. So if you live within 5 miles you can order your sandwich and have it delivered. It's convenient because it's also a liquor store. You can order anything else at the same time and have that included for that nominal fee. It's always nice to support local places, this feels like a family business but I didn't ask so I'm not sure. One thing I'm certain of, I will be returning.

I had the steak Diane sandwich, and at the very first bite, I could not put it down. I literally finished the sandwich in 5 mins!! The steak was made perfectly, pink, tender, moist and the most flavor!! The bread perfectly toasted, the cheese pristinely melted so every bite had that ooey gooey stretch to it! For the sides tried their Cole slaw which is probably the best I've ever eaten. It had edamame in it, the slaw was a nice flavor of sweet and savory and wasn't overpowered by the mayo. I could eat the slaw with everything! Also tried their tomato soup turkey chili---sooo good!! If I didn't know better, I wouldn't have known it was turkey because it was very flavorful. Only thing I would add to make that over the top special would be to add some extra raw onions. The fish and chips sandwich was delicious! So crispy, light and crunchy with the coleslaw to make it perfect! Of course, paired with their home made chips that I dipped in everything! Soooo perfect! Presently was beautiful, everything came out in less than 10 mins, the service quick and easy. Definitely recommend to everyone and will be a frequent flier here!

It is hard to not eat an item filled with avocado, mushrooms, pickled vegetables, baby cucumbers, cashews, chimichurri and sunflower seeds on vegan telera! The side dish of the chili made it a great combination. As for the dessert, four Oreo cookies that were battered and deep fried with powdered sugar and Ghirardelli chocolate made this wholesome meal one of the best I had in awhile! I really enjoy this place and the variety that the menu offers!

We came during the daytime for lunch but the owner told us it gets lively at nighttime with fun music. We ordered an order of beef arais and ribeye. When you sit down, they bring over some beautiful side dishes: tahini spread, onions and lemon peel, and other pickled veggies. The onion and lemon peel were my favorite - so good! We got four pieces of arais per order and it comes with a small side salad. We also got a big cucumber salad on the side too. The arais were absolutely delicious and totally reminds me of what I had in Israel. I liked the ribeye slightly better than the beef but both were juicy and delicious. They were hot and fresh so you have to wait a bit for them to cool down and I recommend smothering them with the chimichurri and the tahini spread. They were so good! And they're filling too, it's great for sharing. We can't wait to come back!

Arais Machne Yehuda his one such place. Living up to its namesake, the Machne Yehuda market in Jerusalem, made famous, not only for its colorful stalls and sellers, but also for the outstanding food one can get at the market. But in order to pull that off, you need the perfect storm of the following ingredients: caring, sensitive, owners who treat you like a household guest. Culinary wizards who understand their ingredients and know how to make the best out of them. Appreciative crowd, who knows good food. Period. When all these come together, what you get is a touch of magic. And Arais is exactly that. A touch of magic on Ventura Boulevard. Let's talk some of the ingredients. The warm chickpeas (hummus) that came to the table, at a perfect temperature, and with just a hint of lemon, were the ABSOLUTE BEST chickpeas I had anywhere outside of Jerusalem. I don't say this lightly. Most Mediterranean, restaurants and almost all Israeli restaurants pride themselves on their chickpea preparations. There's a saying in Israel that Israel will forever argue about which chickpeas are the best, which chickpeas make the best dish, which preparation of chickpeas is better than the others. Basically Israeli's lives revolve around evaluating chickpeas. So by telling you, this was the best I've had outside of Jerusalem, what I'm really trying to say is that these weren't "good chickpeas for Tarzana", but rather some of the best anywhere in the world! And that was just the side dish! The formula is a known one. Take acidic vegetables as a side dish, mix them with rich and fatty meat dishes, where the acid of the vegetables in the pickles cuts through the richness; couple that with side dishes, where each dish adds to the overall experience; and what you get is exactly that magic that I told you about earlier on. When you mix that with knowledgeable owners and and welcoming atmosphere, what you get is a short trip to far away lands. Arais Machne Yehuda on every chord. If I have one single comment, and trust me that taking into account, the totality of the experience that was amazing, I would tell you that the pita bread that the Arais came in, was a bit salty. I let the owners know my dislike of tahini, something that has cost me relationships, and has earned me the jeers of many an Israeli; but they insisted time and time again that maybe I should try it "just this time". I explained that once every five years I do in fact, try tahini just to find out that I still don't like it, but my words fell on deaf ears. And you know what? They were right. Both the tahini and chimichurri sauces were perfect accompaniment for the rich lamb meatballs, nestled in the pitas. I was expecting a little bit more heat and the chimichurri to complement the tangy and oily taste emanating from good olive oil and chopped herbs. But alas, the heat came from the deep-fried jalapeños that I had on the side. The look on one of the owners faces when I ate six of them in a row and then proclaimed they were "mild", was priceless. Since this was my first time there, I also got fat chunks of deep fried and then roasted potatoes, a perfect accompaniment to the already rich meal. I highly recommend this Mediterranean/Israeli gem in the heart of Tarzana. If you're ever looking for Israeli food, this, my friends, is it!

All sandwiches are also $10, so go crazy and try a couple different ones, to me nothing beats the grilled pork though. You can enter from the street, but will have to find metered parking, so just drive around back, they have a small free lot and you can enter from the rear. There are not any seats to eat there, so everything is to go, but service is quick and the guy was nice behind the counter. Go check them out, grab a lotto ticket if your into that, get some great food, support a local woman & minority owned business, not enough of them out there. Enjoy!
