    Baker goods
    Lynn R.

    We were traveling to Missouri and we needed something to eat when we were going to the airport and we saw Panera bread. Panera is one of our favorite places to go in San Diego where we live and they have consistent quality no matter where you are. My husband ordered his always usual green goddess chicken salad with a piece of bread and I ordered my latest favorites which are the Baja bowls and the Mediterranean bowls you can get them with or without chicken. I opted for the Mediterranean bowl today without chicken because I wanted the hummus and all the yummy veggies and healthy greens rice and quinoa and cucumbers and it was delicious. It was just the right thing to have before we boarded our flight and I'm so glad we stopped at Panera. They had great service friendly employees and it was nice and quiet inside the restaurant and plenty of seating with ample lighting. Here is a great place to just hang out and read and study and enjoy your food and they have great drinks too And plenty of baked goods to tempt you.

    Crumbs on every table
    Nicolle M.

    I couldn't believe how dirty this panera was, especially during a pandemic. Trays littered most every vacant table, and they were never picked up during my stay the other tables that were available were full of crumbs and trash. They also only brought one item off our ticket and thought the rest had been delivered. I had to wait a while more for a cold bagel. It wasn't busy today, so I'm not sure how they kept dropping the ball. Very disappointed.

    We have gone to different Panera's in the past. The staff was very helpful and service was fast and good. I am not sure why others had a problem here. It was a good visit at the supper hour on a Saturday night. Would recommend their newest flatbread pizzas

    Ask for a Green Smoothie
    Mellinda L.

    Ok Panera Bread! What in the world is this mess. Visited on March 10th at 11:55am. Does this look like a green smoothie to you?? I asked for a green smoothie using the super fruit base. Not only does it look absolutely gross it smells like garbage. I could tell the staff had a complete attitude with having to make a slight change to how they normally make their smoothies, so sorry I asked. Just say no when people ask for something different, instead of mixing up some crap and trying to be funny. This is truly not funny to me. $6 for something had to put in the trash can.

    Breakfast egg Sandwich. Smaller than normal serving.  Think they put a half egg. I showed staff.  Didn't seem to care or offer to redo.

    My breakfast egg sandwich was much smaller than usual. Usually have a x-large egg. This time I think was xx-small. I opened up sandwich and showed staff Person didn't care or offer to replace. For &4.89, needs improvement.

    Tomato basil soup in sourdough bread bowl? Yes please!!!

    Great food! Good service. Clean restaurant. If you get their soup, you have to get it in their sourdough bread bowl. It's amazing!!!!! Their summer corn chowder is so good! Their salads are good. Cookies decent. Bagels so so good. Try their Asiago bagel, or cinnamon crunch bagel. Their tuna sandwiches are really good too. And we always get a "large" loaf of sour dough bread to take home.

    As you can see from the pink bread, it was soaked with pickled onion juice!

They even have a little shopping area with some authentic Italian groceries. Service was great, food came out quick and was so yummy! Highly recommend.

    J. Parrino's Queen City Deli -- "More Than What Meats the Eye"…read more It's no wonder why J. Parrino's Queen City Deli is more than what meats the eye. The name behind it, Joe Parrino, is a renowned St. Louis restaurateur known for blending Italian tradition with classic St. Louis-style soups, sandwiches, and pastas -- and that mix absolutely shines here in Springfield. From the outside, you might not think much of it. But as they say, IYKYK. This is definitely not a book to judge by its cover. Tucked on the east side of Sunshine, it's the kind of local gem you'll want to keep in your lunch rotation. I started with the Milo Salad, and wow -- thick cuts of salami and pepperoni, fresh cheese, crisp lettuce, crunchy homemade croutons, and a perfectly sliced hard-boiled egg. The dressing took it to another level -- creamy like Caesar but with a tangy vinaigrette twist. Honestly, I almost forgot to take a photo because I couldn't stop eating. And that garlic breadstick? Fresh, soft, and buttery perfection. Next up was the Parrino Special, their house sandwich -- prosciutto, salami, and incredibly tender roast beef stacked between garlic bread buns and topped with a house salad. Every bite was a dream: the crunch of the bread and salad with the tenderness of the meats created layers of flavor and texture that just worked. Pure happiness between garlic bread. The team here is friendly, fast, and full of good recommendations -- you can tell they care about what they're serving. If you're looking for a local spot that nails the trifecta of soups, salads, sandwiches, and pasta, Queen City Deli might just become your new favorite lunch stop.

It wasn't too busy, our waitress took us to a table. There were 5 of us. Menu was very simple and easy to read through. They have open kitchen, so you can see the cooks working it up in the kitchen. There are different variety of gyros and shrawma that they have. I usually order a either of it. So it's surprising to see more different one! I stick with the basic gyro and my daughter got the Philly cheese steak gyro and the beef shrawma dinner plates. We also order some appetizer and dessert. Food tastes very fresh and good. A must try spot.

    This was my second visit to Crave Mediterranean Cafe on Republic Road…read more Overall, it's a solid fast-casual experience -- not fine dining, but that's clearly not what they're aiming for. We spent about $40 for two people and had table service, which was a nice touch. Our waitress was very friendly and had a great attitude, though it seemed like she might have been having an off night as there were a few small mistakes along the way. The food was good across the board -- nothing bad at all, just not especially memorable. The space itself is a plus: larger dining room, comfortable seating, and a nice place to sit and enjoy a meal. If you're comparing Mediterranean options in Springfield, I'd probably give the edge on food to Greek Belly, but Crave offers a more spacious and relaxed dine-in atmosphere. Overall, a good, reliable option -- especially if you value the setting as much as the food.

But the portions are small, and I felt like a needed a meal less than an hour after eating there, so... Not worth the money. But it was a good little sandwich if you're ever not hungry at all but feel the need to eat something. But if you're hungry, or even have a normal person-sized appetite, best to go somewhere else. Also, service is slow -- kind, but slow -- and you won't be getting your tiny deli sandwich in a hurry. So if you thought, "oh, a deli, I'll save some time and get a quick bite." No. No you will not. Nothing personal, but this is a confused business model yielding low ROI for the customer in terms of portion and quality per price. If you have the time and want to pay this much for a sit down restaurant, go get full at literally any table service restaurant in town and avoid this place. But, if you like overpaying for tiny sandwiches that take forever to be served, then this is the spot for you. I just don't see how I could ever be compelled to return here. This makes no sense as a restaurant. It was good--but it was just a little sandwich snack that took well over an hour to walk in, sit down, order, receive, and then eat. The eating part took almost no time, however, because, as I said, the portions are tiny. It did taste good, though, so you get a second star.
