Panera Bread - Orlando

Panera Bread offers the finest quick-service soufflés around, and they should absolutely keep them on the menu forever!

The experience was quite disappointing. It seemed like they served me the last remnants of the soup they had. The bread was hard, the lettuce was wilted, and the food was cold.

I ordered the Chipotle Chicken Bacon Flatbread Pizza and was disappointed to find that it had no sauce at all. What I received was just dry bread, tomatoes, chicken, cheese, and bacon. The pizza was supposed to have chipotle sauce, but it was completely missing. In the end, I only received a $6 credit for a $13 pizza that I couldn't eat; I took just two bites. To top it off, the pizza was cold, as if it had just come out of the refrigerator. Very frustrating experience.

The French Baguette was tiny. What little there was, was very tasty. Just wish it was grown up size. The Toasted Steak White Cheddar was tasty but had very little meat. Again, it was a child sized portion of meat. It actually took three bites to get to get meat. Basically, the quality is good but the prices are up and the portions are down.

I absolutely love Panera! It's always a pleasure to see friendly faces like Arian's!
