    Mediterranean Veggie sandwich and Autumn soup.
    Marney R.

    Was pleased with my meal today. They were very efficient in getting orders out and everything tasted delicious. I usually order from the app because I like to see all the customization option but it was not working for some reason and the cashier was very helpful to go through the options with me. I know that can be annoying but she took the time and didn't make me feel rushed. The seasonal soup was delicious. My meal was perfect amount to fill me but not make me over stuffed. Delicious meal and great service

    Typical Panera bread! I've been to many Panera breads, and I like that they are all the same, you know what to expect. Would love for them to roll out a gluten free bread sandwich someday, but we've got a ways to go.

    Turkey bravo with bacon bits thrown on
    Rachel S.

    Normally I love Panera but recently had a few bad experiences here. A few weeks ago I ordered delivery for lunch, I ordered the turkey bravo sandwich and instead of that I somehow wound up with either tuna or chicken salad sandwich, which out of all sandwiches is one I would never eat. Since it was through a 3rd party I didn't get a lunch and didn't fully get my money back so just had to stay hungry for the rest of my work shift since there was no time to get anything else. Then I decided today to pick up my own and order so I could make sure it's accurate. I ordered at 12:45pm it said it would be ready in 10 minutes. When I got there, there were still multiple orders ahead of me so I waited 30 minutes to get my food and by that time my lunch was over. If it is going to take longer don't put a false time on there because I never would've went if I knew it would take 30 minutes. Then to top it off, on my turkey bravo sandwich which is normally real normal pieces of bacon they threw bacon bits on it! There seemed to be plenty of people in the back there just very unorganized and evidently not trained.

    Mac n cheese is delicious

    Just finished a full Philly cheesesteak and it definitely hit the spot. I went with onions,…read morepeppers, cherry peppers, and light mayo--the flavors were spot on. The Highlights: * Proportions: Excellent meat-to-topping ratio. They don't skimp on the steak, which is always the biggest test. * Flavor: The cherry peppers added a great kick that cut through the richness of the meat and mayo perfectly. * Quality: A really solid, hearty sandwich that feels worth the order. One Small Note: The full sub comes as one continuous sandwich. If you're looking to split it or just prefer smaller halves, you'll want to grab a knife or ask them to slice it for you, as mine came uncut. Overall, a great lunch spot if you're craving an authentic-feeling Philly. I'll definitely be back!

    Krave Cheesesteaks has had a lot of good buzz from the CT Foodie, Blogger and Instagram Community…read more I was recently able to visit for lunch. I live in the Hartford area, Krave certainly has one of the better cheesesteaks within a reasonable driving distance. The seating area has two person tables. They were both full most of the time I was there. Luckily, one was opening up as my cheesesteak was done and I was able to eat there. They could fit one more 2 person table there, and that seems like a good idea from what I saw. Service was friendly. I ordered a cheesesteak, which automatically comes with onions, Cherry peppers, whiz and American Cheese. I added sweet peppers, mushrooms, Mamba Sauce (described as a sweet hot sauce) and mayo. The steak was obviously fresh. It was maybe cut a bit thicker and coarser than many places. My preference would be a touch thinner. I also could have used a bit more seasoning on the steak itself. I was looking forward to the cherry pepper flavor, but it didn't stand out. I wonder if they misunderstood and substituted the sweet peppers for the cherry peppers instead of including both. The bread was about average for a cheesesteak. I think there's an opportunity to level up there. The other toppings were generally good. I've heard good things about the "salmon steak" and the "shrimp steak". I'll possibly be back to try the shrimp steak at some point. 4.25 Stars

Onto the drinks and food which were so delicious and truly enjoyable. I got the Beachy Bee Iced Latte special, which is a honey vanilla latte with a coconut cold foam and toasted coconut on top (simply divine)! My fiancé got the cappuccino which was made just to his liking, and he's a coffee connoisseur. For food, I had the Bumble, which I highly recommend, with scrambled eggs, subbed with the gluten free sourdough bread (+$2 up-charge) and cheddar instead of American cheese. It's served all day and had so much flavor with that garlic butter, and the seasoned steak. Yum! If you are gluten free like me, you will appreciate that they have the gluten free sourdough bread or a gluten free wrap to substitute with. My partner had the Basic Bee with bacon and thought it was flavorful with light and fluffy scrambled eggs that complimented the bacon well. Overall, I would really recommend this place if you're looking for a breakfast or lunch in Wallingford!

    I normally try to give places the benefit of the doubt, but our experience at The Bees Knees Bistro…read morein Wallingford was honestly very disappointing and upsetting. My family and I arrived while it was raining outside with our young daughters in strollers, expecting to sit down for a meal and get out of the weather. Instead, we were told we could not come in with the strollers and essentially felt unwelcome the moment we walked through the door. As parents of babies who are still too young to sit safely in high chairs on their own, the strollers are not optional for us , they are necessary. We were not being disruptive, rude, or inconsiderate. We were simply trying to have a meal as a family. Rather than attempting to accommodate us or show any understanding, we were left feeling like having children made us an inconvenience. What made the situation even worse was the fact that it was pouring outside. Any level of kindness or flexibility would have gone a long way. Instead, we felt embarrassed, frustrated, and honestly shocked by the lack of compassion and customer service. Families with young children already face enough challenges going out in public, and experiences like this make it even harder. We ended up leaving and taking our business somewhere else that was far more welcoming and understanding toward families. It is disappointing because we were genuinely looking forward to trying this restaurant, but first impressions matter. A restaurant does not need to be "kid-centered" to still treat parents and babies with basic respect and decency. I completely understand that restaurants may have space limitations or policies, but there is a respectful and compassionate way to handle situations like this. Instead, the experience came across as cold and dismissive. There are many restaurants in the area that are happy to accommodate families, and moving forward those are the businesses I will continue to support. Unfortunately, after this experience, I will not be returning and would not recommend this restaurant to families with infants or children who still require strollers or extra accommodations. I wont be going back and giving them .you business, nor will I be recommending this place to anyone. Totally rude and discrimination towards those with babies. I did not feel cherished like their website says every guest is. Its sad because this will and im sure does effect their business. I will never give them my business after yesterday. No attempts at accommodating us or evening offering to let us sit outside, lazy staff, but yet there were 3 teenage girls taking names for the wait list. What a joke.

We'd never tried DiBella's before, but the whole experience was exceptional, and I hope the employee we interacted with is recognized by management for her excellent customer service skills.
