"Disclaimer: I have never dined at this location, only delivery. That being said, I have ordered from here 3x and every time something was wrong with the order. I ordered the shrimp Romulus in the past, they sent penne with capers sauce and no protein at all. Uber Eats Gave me a refund, but seriously? Before that I ordered 2 pizzas and they only sent one ?! , again Uber Eats reimbursed me. The today they send me 2 lobster bisque that have NO FUKN LOBSTER AT ALL!! Some chopped up ravioli in some kind of vodka sauce that wasn't bisque. I heard such good stories about this place, they must all be just that, stories. Thrice burned, never again, so much better pizza establishments on the island."

"Anniversary dinner with our two children, 8 and 10. We decided to sit out on the porch on a fairly humid June evening and the ceiling fans made for a nice breeze. We find most restaurants to be overly air-conditioned, but Metro 8 didn't seem like a fridge even when we walked in - that's a huge plus for me! Our waitress was very nice and attentive without interfering. She noted that it was nice to see kids with books (and math in our conversation) instead of iPads. The steaks my husband and I ordered were as advertised and delicious. So were the pages. Our girls loved their grilled chicken. Cocktails were good and just the right strength. Highly recommended."

"My second time ever eating at Panera Bread. I ordered a salad and it was pretty tasty. All the dressing was more at the bottom of the bowl so it was hard to eat it once it reaches that point. Has a selection of fountain drinks and juices you can choose from. You do your own refills. Plenty of tables, you can choose to sit anywhere. I went during lunch hour so there were a lot of people."

"Me and my family were excited to get some pizza today and figured we?d try this place out. Walked into a dirty environment, absolutely no greeting from the girls behind the counter, i asked one for a menu which she pointed to. Overall seems like a negative dirty environment. Would not trust to eat there. Pizza will not be made with love."

"I was pleasantly surprised by my visit to Panera. I didn't realize they offered breakfast items, as I usually go to Starbucks for my morning fix. However, today Starbucks was sold out of my usual orders so I decided to give Panera a try. I was delighted to discover they have a breakfast menu. I ordered a chocolate croissant, which was delicious, and a Madagascar vanilla cream cold brew with almond milk and caramel syrup added. The coffee was excellent, especially considering I am very particular about my iced coffees. I give 4 stars because I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich on Ciabatta, and while the bacon, eggs, and bread were great, the cheese was chewy and didn't taste good. I ended up taking it off and the sandwich tasted much better. I will remember to order my sandwiches without cheese in the future. Overall, Panera offers a great breakfast selection and fantastic coffee. The service was also excellent. I will definitely be returning to try more items. If you're in the market for a new breakfast spot, I highly recommend giving Panera a try."

"As soon as we entered, the cashier welcomed us warmly. We felt a bit indecisive about our orders, but ultimately settled on the soup and sandwich combo, which we always enjoy. I spotted a tempting dessert in the display case, but since it wasn’t available by the slice, we chose cookies instead. They were so delightful that I'm still savoring them two days later! My spouse thoroughly enjoyed her sandwich and soup, while I found my sandwich somewhat lacking. However, the soup—a hot chicken and wild rice variety—was absolutely fantastic on its own. I added a bit of Tabasco sauce to give it a little kick. The restaurant was tidy and well-organized, although some areas were not quite ready for customers yet. The restroom was also fairly clean during my visit. Overall, the staff appeared to be competent and capable throughout our time there."

"We ordered a salad and a sandwichThey were efficient, price point wise very reasonable compared to a lot of restaurants these days .I do miss baby greens in my salads .I had a summer salad with Romain, lettuce and lots of fruit. It was very refreshing. If you like people watching, there was lots of them around to watch while you're eating .I didn't get any baked goods this time, but I know they're quite yummy from past visits ."

"I went in loving the food and walked out hating this fricking place and now I can 't even think of going back without getting even more frustrated. I went in for one bread and one muffin, and it took just a bit over 20 minutes for them to let me know that they didn 't have the bread, and to just get me my single muffin and then wait for the manager for the refund that by that point I was ready to just take the loss. I do not mind that they were out of my bread and I wouldn 't have cared if I didn 't think anything could have been done, but when I can see how every fricking employee is competing for slowest zombie walk while I 'm waiting forever for a single muffin that is when I get super upset. I have bad joint pain at night that leaves me slow hobbling around my house, and I could have beat them in a marathon compared to their speeds. I love their food, but the just terrible slow service for something so simple they just have to grab from the case is what is the issue. This was just terrible on the employees parts and that is when I get angry enough for a bad review cause I know how hard it is to be in the service industry. Am not going back for at least a long time, God dang so much time I 'll never get back just sitting on that wall sofa staring at their slow walking and looking at their order tablet that mocked me by letting me know that they were 'prepping ' my order. Wonderful food, great lobby and inside, slowest employees ever."

"Stood for Rapid Pick-Up counter for 35 minutes after ordering as they ignored my order of 4 simple sandwiches. Watched as 8 later orders came and went, my name was still on the board. Gently asked if it was coming up soon she just pointed to the nameboard and said it's still up. (Duh, I'm aware! Finally received my order, returned to my waiting family and got the highway,only to find sandwiches were not made to order and no pickles included. It was indeed a busy time but there's no way 8 ordersthat came after me (many of them assembled and cooked and mine was 2 colds 2 hots, the 2 hots being 2 pieces of cheese and 2pieces of bread to make 2 simple grilled cheeses should have left before me while I stood there. At the very least, the 2 atthe counter should have asked me who I was after 15-20 minutes and looked into it. Standing for 40 minutes waiting on 4sandwiches, huge disappointment."

"Milano Market has certainly earned its TikTok fame, thanks to the Chicken Caesar salad that’s been making waves. Let’s start with the positive – the taste. The flavors are undeniably good, and the chicken deserves all the spotlight it gets. Now, the catch. Brace yourself for a salad that seems to have taken a dip in the dressing pool and never quite dried off. The famous Chicken Caesar, though tasty, is drowned in an excessive sea of dressing. It’s a bit much, and you might find yourself searching for the salad beneath the cascade of flavors. The ambiance at Milano Market is casual and welcoming, and the service is friendly. It’s just a shame that the star dish seems to have missed the memo on balance. If they could tone down the dressing, this salad would be an absolute winner. So, three stars it is – one for the TikTok sensation, one for the undeniable taste, and one for the authentically good vibes. Milano Market, a little less dressing might just elevate that famous Chicken Caesar to legendary status."

"First time back in a year. Sadly very disappointed. Price have increased by at least 25% which I could understand due to inflation but food quality has really dropped off. Portions are smaller, Ordered seafood C himi and was undercooked and filled with mock crab for $18.00. Bean were straight out of a can were soupy and rice was bland. Both were unfortunately Luke warm. Service was very good and staff was very polite but come on food quality is frankly very poor. They need to take a step back and reevaluate the operation and get back to the basics of good food. Like the place and want them to succeed but at this rate people will be looking for other option"

"Orders are always wrong..I usually have an issue with ordering from this café, something is always missing or wrong but it's close by and I love Panera..But today I ordered for myself and 3 other coworkers in West Haven. Not sure why it picked this café, I was assuming the others did not deliver. Anyhow, upon receiving the order (delivered by Door Dash which was left in the cold all the way across the parking lot away from my building after leaving instructions from the building not receiving any call from the driver), I opened the bag and realized that a bread bowl was missing for my coworkers order. Upset, I called and they refunded me for that order. When it was time for my lunch, I went into the bag again and noticed that my soup was not there !!! That is so crazy to me. For all our orders, it was $60! For 2/4 of the orders to be incorrect is a horrible standard. The whole order slip was checked off, but clearly nobody ever really checked it ..I wanted my whole order refunded, seeing as it was not only for me but my coworkers, I now had NO lunch to eat during my 8 hour shift, and I spent $60 for wrong, cold food.For what is was worth, the lady manager I spoke to over the phone was very nice and understanding of my situation. She explained that the store was short staffed and extremely busy. She was the only good part of this experience, because she had good customer service. However she nor her manager could refund me my money because it was too much I know it was too much, I spent it !!!Everybody makes mistakes and I am understanding of that. We've all had our days. But when one order is wrong, one never got made, and you spent your hard earned money to eat this food on your only 45 lunch break of the day, something's got to give.Overall bad experience and waste of money!"

"How much do I love Panera Bread you ask?..., let me tell you. Two years ago I lost my job when the pandemic began..., my elderly next door neighbor died, and my husband and I literally didn't leave the house for two months..., thank goodness we've always had backup food..., in case of the zombies. Seriously though, we've always been stocked. I haven't had a job in two years because of the pandemic... when it began to be safer I started doing odd jobs again, mostly yard work and shoveling just to make ends meet..., thank goodness our house is paid for outright. Panerai Bread came through for me today..., they hired me when I needed it most...,and for that I will always be thankful. (Ps: this should be fun..., the owners' name is Jill..., her second in command is Will..., and my name is WiL..., this is going to be fun. Jill, Wll and WiL..., the employees already think it's funny... and so do I."

"This review is long overdue! Olive Express serves incredibly delicious food, generous portions, reasonable prices, and has a friendly staff! What more could you want? I do wish they were open later and on weekends, just so I could eat there more often. All the employees are super friendly and easy to interact with, especially Ivy at the front desk, who is exceptionally kind! We've tried the quinoa bowls, chicken curry, salmon wrap, kabob platter, and tuna salad sandwich, and honestly, every dish is outstanding! It can be a bit tricky to find since it's located inside an office building, but it's definitely worth the extra effort. Give it a try; you won't be disappointed!"

"Traveling from out of town and stopped in for a hardy breakfast for Easter. Walking in the door, 5 of their staff members were standing there and very welcoming. Our order was cooked quickly and we were grateful for the speediness of service. We ordered an Eggs Benedict, with over hard eggs. (No runny yoke) The server, (Angel M.S) returned with the eggs half cooked. When we brought it to her attention she said, isn 't it cooked enough for you? Her tone felt sarcastic. My 9 year old noticed and asked why was she talking to us like that. The customer experience is just as important as the food. When serving a large demographic college town, it 's important to feel welcome. Unfortunately today, wasn 't one of those days. Hopefully that was a one off experience. Overall Good food. Healthy portions. Central location by the hotels. Could use some attention to dirt/dust in the wood partitions."

"Previously, I have always liked Panera Bread, but after this experience I will not be going back for awhile. With only one car in front of me, I waited in the drive-through for over 40 minutes. I pulled right up to the speaker and they said to wait a minute, over 15 minutes later they finally responded to take my order (I would have left, but a car was behind me so I couldn't back out of line). While taking my order the worker was SUPER rude! I only ordered 2 coffees and 2 bagels. I got my order and it was wrong. My coffee was made with milk instead of almond milk and received the wrong cream cheese for bagels. I understand staffing shortages are impacting the restaurant businesses, BUT if those working at least were nice or apologized I would have been able to look past the ridiculous wait time and errors."

"The food at this restaurant is top-notch and I usually opt for delivery. However, on my last order when I requested my burgers to be rare, they arrived overcooked and extremely well-done. Everyone makes mistakes, so I am willing to give them another chance, especially since they have never messed up before. I will wait to see how the next order turns out before giving a final rating, but I am hopeful for a 5-star experience."
