    Greek salad
    Minu A.

    My salad is always so crisp and fresh here. I've been to bad Panera locations before where the food is nasty but I come to this one often for my lunch break at work and I can tell this is a good location .

    This Panera is closest to my office so I stopped in here for my favorite sandwich. I had the frontega chicken sandwich with a bag of chips. The employees were wearing PPE and social distancing is being observed.

    This was my 1st visit to this location. .the cashier Welcomed us with a smile and was pleasant and friendly The dining area was in need of attention we viewed a few tables before choosing a clean booth.

    New and fancy

    The Panera that was at Orchard Lake and Maple for forever has moved here, and the interior is definitely impressive and modern. However, at 3pm on a Saturday the line was crazy busy, and there was only 1 person working the register. It took about 15 minutes for me to get through the line, and all I wanted was a bagel and a Chai tea latte - I would have used the handy self-serve kiosks, but I had a free bagel on my Panera account and the system wouldn't recognize it. The cashier got me my bagel, but then I had to go to the warm food pickup area for my Chai tea latte. She did apologize for the wait, otherwise frankly this review would have been 2 stars. They do have a pretty cool electronic board thing that tells you when your food/drink is ready (see my pic). This place definitely has some growing pains, is the TL;DR of this review. They need more counter staff. However, the space itself is very nice, and it also has a drive-through.

    I had a good experience at this location. Good quality food and service. The space is quite large with plenty of quieter areas that are good for studying.

    Fruit cup

    According to CDC they don't put cream cheese on bagels anymore. I also just received a fruit cup with what looks like pubic hair or beard hair ? Not sure but either way it's repulsive. No wonder this location has 2 1/2 stars. Do not eat here.

    Love the food. Staff is fast and friendly. However, they often are out of bread bowls. We will defiantly be eating here again.

I always appreciate a good fast-casual style restaurant that offers an easy menu with good and healthy options, so I was looking forward to trying out The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill in West Bloomfield! Upon first glance, the restaurant looks very chill, well kept up, and has tons of seating options. The staff was also very kind and continually offered to help with anything during our visit. However... I have two main qualms. One is that the price per item adds up very quickly here. You essentially have to factor in that you can probably get 1.5 meals out of a portion, because otherwise, you're paying close to $20 for a single meal of fast-casual food. Keep in mind that most other locations of this caliber in this area would easily have 2 meals worth of food in one entree at a lower price.The food itself was pretty ok - I'd say it met our expectations of what a standard mediterranean restaurant should be. That said... they definitely disappointed us with the wait time. We went in on a slow Sunday afternoon, and though there was only 1 other family in the restaurant, we ended up waiting nearly 30 minutes for our food. Ultimately... I'd probably recommend you try somewhere else -- The Great Greek Mediterranean is definitely casual, but nowhere near fast.

Rod the Owner was wonderful he showed us great service starting with an amazing Iraki tea!! Some cucumber yogurt we ate on some flat bread which Colleen and I devoured it was the best!! Then he brought me my chicken shawarma and some Bulgur! It was in place of rice and so much better for you and I love rice. But I have a new favorite! He brought me a side dish of beans in some sauce I can't remember the name! I was in heaven those who know me know I am a creature of habit when it comes to food I usually stick with the same stuff when I find something I love. Their menu is huge and so many other things on it I want to try! I am sure I will be back in within the week. Rod was such a good human we loved talking to him. He has worked hard to make this place great. Very nice atmosphere. Everyone in that came into the restaurant raved of the food and service. So do yourself and him a favor and stop in! You will not be sorry! If you have any questions just ask him and if you happen to find anything you find is not your favorite let him know. I had a potato thing he brought in a sauce and I love potatoes but it wasn't my favorite! But the beans I snubbed my nose up to at first turned out to be something I would order again. The potato's were not bad I love potato's but he told me to just try the beans and to my surprise were really good, I would order again!! Great experience and being so sleepy after chemo it turned out putting me in a very happy state of mind!? Stop in soon and talk to Rod! They do catering as well. I hope to go back and try one of everything on his menu. Who knew I would love it so much!! Of course can't do it all in a day so you can bet that I will be coming back often of as often as my body lets me with chemo every three weeks!! This made our day!! Go eat you wont be sorry!!

The only issue is, I'm guessing the kitchen was backed up and the servers were a bit overwhelmed. We ended up having an enjoyable meal, and the food itself was great as always. And eventually someone who was not technically our server took care of us and did an excellent job. I shared eggs and challah french toast with my daughter and both were great. The latte (ehhh) ... Maybe just get regular coffee. I was in the mood but they don't do almond milk in it and it was just OK. So I wouldn't get that again here.

It felt a bit outdated inside, but I didn't really mind that since it was pretty clean and well lit. I got a West Side Story with a side order of potato salad. The sandwich was great, and checked all the boxes for me. The bread was the softest rye I've ever had. I liked how fluffy it was, even though that was not exactly the texture was expecting. The pastrami was really good, and it was sliced perfectly. The coleslaw and russian dressing were fine but nothing special. The sandwich was so filling, I only had a bite or two of the potato salad, but it was really good and held up nicely in my fridge to consume later. Overall, I would definitely return.

We were sat quickly and the brought out the highchair at the same time. We started with the crab cakes and French onion soup! The soup was perfectly prepared and very delicious 8.9/10. The crab cakes on the other hand were boring had little flavor very disappointed 4.0/10. Then we had the wagyu burger with fries and a side of baked Mac and cheese. The burger was excellent I would recommend to anyone 8.7/10. The Mac was delicious as well 7.5/10. We did bread service as well for my Son, it came with a pesto butter light and fluffy ($9) seemed a bit excessive to charge that much for bread. Decor was very interesting, they had trees growing out of their center booths I loved it! 4/5 fells very fair taking into account food quality, value, decor and service. We will be back, next time to try desserts!

    Disappointing on every front…read more I ordered the steak frites, as did two others at my table. All three were requested medium. What arrived told a different story: the doneness varied significantly across the plates, suggesting a kitchen with inconsistent execution and little quality control before food leaves the pass. Beyond the temperature issues, the steaks were under-seasoned and presented with little care... not what you expect at this price point or for this type of occasion. The service compounded the frustration. Our group was large, and it was clear the staff were not adequately prepared or staffed to handle that. Mistakes accumulated throughout the evening... mis placed orders, missed requests, a general lack of coordination had our plates dancing all night. What was most disheartening was the manager's response or lack thereof. When the issues were raised, there was no meaningful acknowledgment, no accountability, and no effort to make things right. For a restaurant that presumably caters to celebratory dining, that kind of dismissal leaves a lasting impression. **Bottom line:** If you're planning a special occasion, I'd strongly encourage you to look elsewhere. Vive Bloomfield did not rise to the moment, and a night that deserved better was diminished by an experience that fell short at nearly every level.
