    Garden Avo sandwich was not good and avocado was hard
    Meg M.

    I ordered the "Garden Avo" (which is toast) and realized after I paid that they gave me the "Garden Avo Egg White Sandwich". I drove away thinking I'd try it out but it was not up to par..bland, no flavor, watery, HARD avocado slices. I tried calling the restaurant but could not get through and it was not even peak hours. I have kids and it's dead of summer, there's no way I could go back to the drive thru already headed to our next destination. So I'm out that money. Panera in general got rid of all the items I go there for: Napa chicken salad, basic ham sandwich, molasses bread, Gouda cheese as an option, mustard or mayo on sandwiches. The menu overall is confusing and makes it feel like a whole new restaurant which is maybe what they're going for. Hoping to find a better cafe in the west valley that has fresh foods and a good chicken salad at the least.

    We always do drive thru pick up and every time we have a problem. The most recent time, I placed a pick up order at 9:16am and when it was confirmed, it said it wouldn't be ready until 9:44am. We ordered two breakfast sandwiches and two pastries....why is that taking 30 minutes? When we got there at 9:30, it didn't look busy. The girl said she hadn't even received our order which doesn't make sense. Got the food at 9:45am and it was not worth that wait. I know there's an egg shortage right now, but they need to disclose that they aren't using real eggs.

    Tomato soup with half grill cheese special for me.
    Yvonne H.

    Where do I start? We both needed soup for dinner and stopped here. We got the special that comes with half a sandwich. We both got grilled cheese, and the cheese was not nearly melted enough. My tomato soup was OK, but the bowl should've been filled a bit more. Hubby got chicken noodle, and his bowl was not even half filled. Nope, he was not a happy man. To top it off, that bowl had one small piece of chicken and 3 noodles. The rest was broth. Sad, I wish I had gotten a picture of that. Add in two drinks, and the total was over $32.00. It's not worth it. Sorry, not sorry. Nope. Won't be back.

    I feel disrespected To know that someone made this sandwich, gave them self an atta boy nod, wrapped it up and served me with a smile. I should have taken the time to look up this location before even driving over there. The establishment only has 2 stars and something tells me that the 2 stars for this venue is earned There's absolutely no way someone put this together and thought to themselves this was a sandwich Never again I tell you Panera bread is dead to me

    1/2 and 1/2 special (soup and sandwich)
    Judy L.

    I was in the area and needed a quick yummy lunch! I found a Panera Bread nearby and darted for this place! It looks clean, nice, and new. I decided to do the ordering at the self ordering area. Of course, I forgot my drink! I walked to the counted and tried to order a large ice tea but the staff member was so nice to offer it to me for free. THANK YOU! That was very sweet and not necessary. There plenty of seating areas and I picked the main dining area in the corner. They delivered my 1/2 and 1/2 special (soup and sandwich). For my soup, I got cream of chicken and wild rice soup. For my sandwich, I got the half chicken bacon rancher. I almost got a bag of chips and a large green tea.

    As I was ordering at the drive-thru,I thought to myself why haven't I come here before. I ordered (1) chicken Roma asiago bagel stack at 1:54 PM (on the receipt). They told me to wait at parking spot number two as the order was taking some time. As I watched other cars, get their food and noticed their bags were larger or sometimes more than one, I thought to myself when will I get my one bagel. By 2:10 PM I went in the store wondering what happened to my sandwich. As I was asking for a manager, I saw a young man walking out the door towards my car and realized that was my sandwich. I finally got it at 2:14PM. I realize now I know why I don't frequent this restaurant. Taking 15 minutes for one bagel does not work for anyone who's looking for a quick meal. I would avoid the Goodyear drive-through.

    Quick lunch craving mac and cheese. The bacon mac and cheese perfect texture good creamy tasty cheese bacon cooked to perfection. fast friendly service. great temperatures good vibe clean restrooms.

    Was not really happy with value to portion size. Food was not really anything special for the price they charge. More bread to fill you up more than fillings. Staff were nice but I'd keep driving to another option given the choice. Dining hall was dirty even though people were not really inside. Trash under booths. Definitely needs some TLC

    Panera store located at: 1452 Pebble Creek Pkwy, Goodyear, AZ 85395. I love Panera for their coffee, tea, bagels, sandwiches, salads, bakery, and all the self serve drinks. However, for this Panera I would give this store negative stars if I could. At 6:05pm, I ordered a tuna sandwich with arugula on a toasted baguette. Lady manager came out about ten minutes later to tell me as a matter-of-fact that getting a tuna sandwich on a toasted baguette was not possible at this Panera. I would have paid extra if that was an issue for the Lady manager. For over thirty minutes I could overhear the Lady manager working the register and pushing the Panera rewards to all the walk-in customers. Lady manager has a loud, commanding, and projecting voice. She sounded nice, courteous, and respectful to all the other customers. That was not the same and equal treatment that I received from her today on June 09, 2023 at 6:20pm; all the contrary. Let the record reflect that quality customer service, and equal treatment to all customers is severely lacking at this Panera store. Jordan

    Mac n cheese
    Erica C.

    So disappointed! It's like my Mac and cheese was left over from the day before and reheated! I've ordered Mac n cheese from this location many times before & this time it was NOT the same. It's usually fresh and creamy. This time the cheese sauce was dry and chunky.

    Very watery potato soup.

We've spent a lot here over the years and have always supported and recommended this location. That's why my son's recent experience was so disappointing. He stopped in to get some work done, something he's done many times during slow hours. Sometimes he buys something, sometimes he doesn't, and it has never been an issue. This has always been a welcoming place. This time, a staff member told him he couldn't sit and work unless he purchased something. What made it worse was the explanation: a table of eight older gentlemen "didn't like" that he was sitting there working, and that was the reason he needed to leave or buy something. It wasn't busy, it wasn't about space, and it wasn't about a policy. It was simply another group of customers not liking his presence, and the staff acting on that. After years of loyalty, that was incredibly disappointing. If there's a new policy, that's fine, just communicate it clearly and apply it consistently. Asking a long‑time customer to leave because another table "didn't like" them is not acceptable. This experience genuinely made us rethink continuing to support this location.

Her ID had a small dent in it -- still clearly valid -- and instead of handling the situation appropriately, the security guard snapped her ID leaving it almost completely in half. Destroyed it. Then turned her away. That is not only disrespectful, it's completely out of line. Security's job is to verify IDs, not damage personal property. There are proper procedures for questionable IDs, and this was NOT one of them. No apology, no attempt to resolve the situation -- just unnecessary force and a complete lack of basic respect. If this is how they treat people at the door, I can't imagine how the rest of the establishment operates. I would strongly recommend going somewhere else where staff know how to handle situations professionally. I'm just curious - is the security guard now going to pay for her new ID?? This is OUTLANDISH behavior coming from a plain old Jane of a security guard. Clearly he didn't make the cut at the police academy...

    Updating My Previous Review…read more I'm incredibly disappointed to be updating my review because my previous visits here had been wonderful. This was my 4th visit, and I've recommended Zeta's Grill to others because they had always done such a great job accommodating my severe dairy allergy. Unfortunately, tonight was completely different. Food & Service Almost immediately I noticed things weren't the same. I even politely asked our waiter if the owners had changed because the food and service felt so different from my previous visits. I ordered my usual dinner platter, but: * The lamb came out plain with no onions or bell peppers, even though the menu photo shows both. * The baba ghanoush was missing the pomegranate seeds. * The hummus was much less seasoned than before. * My salad arrived covered in feta cheese despite my dairy allergy. * My grape leaves appetizer never came until I reminded them. * I never received the pita bread that normally comes with the meal and had to ask. * Halfway through dinner they remembered I had ordered saffron rice for the table. It felt like our table kept being forgotten all evening. Food Allergy I have a life-threatening dairy allergy, and I mentioned it multiple times while ordering because previous visits had always been handled so carefully. As we were leaving, my throat began swelling and my ears plugged up. I immediately asked if anything I had eaten contained dairy, including the pita bread. Our waiter went to ask the kitchen. The cook appeared visibly irritated about being questioned, retrieved the pita packaging, and read the ingredients aloud. The second ingredient was whey. By then I had already eaten about half the pita. I had to sit down by the register and use my EpiPen before I could leave. Our Waiter I want to give credit where it's due. Our waiter seemed genuinely concerned and apologized once he realized what had happened. He told me I wouldn't have to pay for my meal. I chose to pay anyway because I didn't feel this was his fault. My frustration is with the kitchen and management, not with him. Other Issues My friends were told their meals included one side, including Greek fries, but were later charged a $4 upcharge. Another friend paid $8 for only two pieces of baklava. When she politely questioned it, the employee became dismissive and insisted only the assorted version came with a full container. After we left, we checked the restaurant's own menu, which lists the assorted baklava for $7.95 for the full container, making the explanation even more confusing. Final Thoughts I brought three friends because I wanted to share one of my favorite restaurants with them. Instead, they watched me have an allergic reaction serious enough to require my EpiPen in the parking lot. I've always spoken highly of Zeta's Grill, which makes this even harder to write. I sincerely hope management reviews their allergy procedures. A food allergy isn't a preference--it can become a life-threatening emergency in minutes.

Everyone enjoyed their meals. We all ended up taking leftovers. If I was feeling critical, I'd say the sauce on my pasta leaned watery - but the flavors were still good. While not the most romantic or high caliber option - I do find Oreganos to be one of the most reliably good chains in Goodyear. Well worth a visit if you're craving reasonably priced pizza and pasta!
