I found out today that Panera Bread at the Riverside Plaza allows its employees to park in the very…read morelimited spaces in the small lot in front of the store. That's why there is virtually no convenient parking for customers! In all the jobs I've held over the years, the closest parking was reserved for customers, and employees were instructed to park away from there. I went inside and spoke to the General Manager and the Assistant General Manager at the same time (I don't know why they felt just one of those top managers couldn't handle this). The General Manager in particular was cocky, arrogant, and tried to deflect the conversation with irrelevant talking points. Rather than discuss the issue with me, she told me I should call corporate and that she would get me the phone number. I told her I could Google the phone number faster than she could go get it. Then she asked if there was anything else she could do for me. I told her NO. I'm going somewhere else to eat. She had no customer service or people skills, so I don't know how she came to be the General Manager. This also explains where some of the staff there learned how to treat customers. I don't value businesses that don't value customers. There are plenty of other options right there in the Riverside Plaza and surrounding areas--and options with larger portions and better prices. I encourage you not to patronize this location, but if you do, I think you should consider what I have done in the past. If the lot is full, keep driving to somewhere else that values your business. There are plenty of unique sandwich spots that aren't cookie-cutter like Panera Bread. +

I think they call it crispy chicken anyway the first thing I noticed was that I said no tomatoes and there was tomatoes and then the other thing that I noticed that is really important. Has anyone ever had a crispy chicken salad without boiled egg? This did not have boiled egg. The bacon bits were hard as a rock. I thought they were gonna break my teeth. The chicken was fine, but the honey mustard dressing was off, and the lettuce was more yellow than green. Also got a meatloaf sandwich and french fries it was so greasy and soggy and disgusting. It was an edible. I did manage to put the fries in the air fryer to take some of the grease out and make them crispy and that helped but the sandwich went in the trash. It was so soggy that the bread just dented when you put your fingers on it. It was disgusting. The only thing that we did enjoy was splitting a triple chocolate muffin, but unfortunately, due to the fact that everything else tasted old and greasy and disgusting, we won't be going back.

We shared the philly roll so we think the salmon was bad. We also got separate ramen bowls. The miso ramen broth had a good flavor but the drunken ramen was pretty bland besides a straight basil and ginger flavor. The pork was very firm and difficult to chew in both of our meals. The egg was closer to hard boiled than soft boiled. The noodles were cooked well. The thai tea was decent. It was extremely sweet and diluted and didn't have that strong flavor most thai tea has. Service-wise, the waitress was friendly but she disappeared from the floor after giving us our food for about 30 minutes and never checked in with us or was available when we were ready to leave.

Mokkoji Shabu Shabu is a chain Japanese hot pot restaurant in Southern California. We went to have…read morelunch with friends and was pleasantly surprised by their food portions. I ordered spicy sukiyaki soup base, with quail eggs and brisket. Each order of soup comes with complementary rice and vegetable assortment + udon noodles. At first, I thought the amount of food you get for $30 was not a lot compared to AYCE Hot Pot options BUT realized halfway through that everything appeared deceptively small and they actually gave enough where I could not finish everything. I do think the added $4 for a scoop of gochujang-looking paste was a bit egregious to make my broth spicy though. The brisket was also on the tougher side compared to KBBQ, possibly due to thicker cuts of meat. Overall, I liked the Mokkoji experience and pricing was fairly reasonable. I understand why they have multiple locations and would definitely be happy to come back to fulfill my shabu shabu fix!

I opted for sukiyaki, which was really flavorful and had that perfect balance of salty sweetness. I ordered the marinated brisket. The regular size is definitely enough, come here on an empty stomach. I split some drunken chicken wings with my table, which were the star of the show. So crispy, and the sweet marinade with the fried garlic was to die for. We drizzled the remaining marinade in the pan over our rice/meat once we were done digging into the wings. Each dish comes with ponzu sauce and sesame sauce, I love. I ended up spilling some on my light pink clothes, which I was devastated about. Definitely dress accordingly if you come here. The service was okay, they were good about clearing out our dishes once we had finished putting in our veggies/meat but the broth ran low a few times and the fire ran out for my friends' burner ovens so this had to be raised twice to the servers. Overall ambiance is a little worn down, I noted that the AC system wires were out and paint was peeling on the table. The exterior also is shuttered off, giving it a mildly unfriendly look. The price is reasonable and not too extravagant for shabu shabu, but I would definitely keep that in mind if you're someone who prefers a more elevated experience. I also noted that they'll be opening a new location in North San Jose/Milpitas soon, so I'm excited for them to continue expanding near my hometown.

I've gotten the Tori OG with chicken chashu twice and it was really good both times! My boyfriend had the Tori Kick the first time and then the Tori Matcha Madness this time and those were both good as well. The chicken chashu has always been VERY flavorful and not dry. The broth is so flavorful as well and has depth. I feel a lot of broths I've had lacked richness. I also feel like the toppings on the ramen are perfect; a ramen egg, kikurage mushroom, green onion, and the meat! The service has always been very friendly and I've never had a bad experience with any of the employees. The place itself is kept clean and I notice the workers cleaning off tables and other things as soon as they can. The restrooms are also very clean (big plus for me). I feel like this is easily becoming one of my go to places for ramen!

That said, the quality of the food made it worth the wait. We'd definitely come back for the ramen!

The plump shrimp was very tasty, and the soup a superior rendition of Manhattan Clam Chowder. Complimentary fresh-baked Sourdough Bread and butter were slow to arrive at our table, but when they did, the bread was excellent and addictive as usual. My brother polished off the majority of the Coconut Shrimp, and Diane liked her Yaki Butterfish, which was a form of Black Cod anointed with Teriyaki Sauce. I decided to splurge on Alaskan King Crab Legs, which are sold here at Market Price. It was $125 for 1 pound on the day I visited. This is still a good price compared with the Las Vegas prices I am used to. Two tools were provided to disassemble the crab legs, but they were enough to get the job done. Served with Drawn Butter, the King Crab Legs were sweet and divine, with a medley of garden vegetables and Cheese Potatoes as suitable accompaniments. And the portion of crustacean I received appeared to be bigger than 1 pound. I happily gave away some big morsels of crab legs to my brother and Diane (making them happy as well), and still had plenty of crab left for me. Service by Nicole O was commendable, and table seating comfortable in the large dining room. I expect to return soon, and add a dinner salad to whatever entree of several fine ones offered here that I choose.
