Reviews for Panera Bread in Shreveport, LA
The absolute WORST dining experience I have ever had. They have MICE, and FLIES in their dining area, trash in the dining area,... bathrooms in shambles, and a foul odor in the restaurant. I have contacted the BBB and the board of health because of this! Thefood was cold and inedible, (mold in my soup, stale bread, and spoiled smelling sandwich) the portions were tiny and they got myorder WRONG! I spoke to the manager 'Crystal' and she had the audacity to argue with me about my order when I spent $30+. What ajoke! DO NOT EAT HERE! I REPEAT, DO. NOT. EAT. HERE! Read more
Very disappointed got up out of my bed just for the the souffle and this is what they had so I left and went to Dunkin... Donuts.This Panera have been having burnt souffles for months now if not longer last time I just ordered something else NOPE nottoday. The cashier said its the oven, well I dont know if its the oven or the workers but they need to get it fixed or takethem out of the oven sooner ijs. Read more
It was okay. Friendly staff. Great drink options. Tasty salads. (Asian, Greek) Small portions for the "Pick 2". Bland tepid... soup. (F. Onion, C. Chowder) Read more
I brought my fiance here for a quick lunch. The service was awful and the environment was less than presentable. However I... figured the food would save the day. I was very much mistaken. The bread I received with my order must have been sun dried andplaced in a freezer. By no means could I bite through it. I ordered the chicken bowl and the price to portion ratio is insane. Iwouldn't feed that to my child. Will be my first and last. Read more
First time going here and wow. Very varied selection. Kinda pricey but the food is made with care and it came out fresh. The... atmosphere is like an upgraded Starbucks and is very nice family oriented environment. The food was amazing. The Flatbreadpizza wasn't drenched in grease and the chocolate chip muffie didn't survive for the photo op. When visiting the ShreveportBossier area, we will stop by for a great bite to eat! Our second time was even Better. The fuji apple salad and broccolimacncheese combo is very delicious. Read more
My review shares the same level of dissatisfaction for the steak sandwich as Mike G. His sandwich looks better than mine, mine... barely had any meat and the onions are practically non-existent. This is not what I expected for a $12 sandwich, must less fromPanera bread. Look at the picture of what I received versus what I was expecting. LOL. I know its fast food but still. Read more
This was my first visit, restaurant was clean & not busy at 4pm. Service was nice and the cashier was very helpful. The reason I... didnt give it 5 stars is for my sandwich. It tasted good but didn't meet my expectations for a $10 steak sandwich. My wifeenjoyed her turkey & avocado sandwich, and said hers was made different than mine (didn't get a pic of hers). She also enjoyedher bowl of Broccoli cheddar soup. The portions are small for the price imo. Smoothie sizes are one size & that looks like aMcDonald's small cup by comparison. Read more
I have tried and tried to be patient and understanding with this restaurant. The manager is kind and willing to help when I have... an issue, but there are too many issues to ignore. They consistently get my order wrong, or forget part of it, so many timesthat I actually complained to the manager (something I almost never do, because I worked in a similar restaurant and I know howtough it is, so I didn't want to make their lives harder.) But the final straw was today, when they served me RAW CHICKEN on mysandwich. The manager says it comes pre-prepared for them, which I understand, but the fact that nobody checked it, and theyserved it to customers, is appalling. It was completely pink, and she tried to tell me it's supposed to look like that becauseit's smoked. I know full well what smoked meat looks like, and this was RAW. This isn't a petty mistake anymore; this is a riskto people's health. Absolutely unacceptable. As long as I'm in Shreveport I will never come back here to eat. Read more
