Description

A neighborhood Panera delivers reliable café fare—crisp salads, toasty sandwiches, and a rotating soup lineup—with generally friendly, helpful staff and quick curbside service. Favorites include tender chicken, Fuji apple salads, and broccoli-cheddar soup, while soups can thin as they cool and portions sometimes disappoint. Occasional missing items, browned lettuce, oily or undercooked dishes, and a chilly dining room temper otherwise pleasant visits. Fast Wi‑Fi, outdoor seating and attentive employees keep regulars coming back.

I've had two disappointing experiences at the Kent Panera this past week. I usually go to the one in Federal Way, and it's always been great. On April 22, 2022, I ordered a Strawberry Poppyseed fruit salad, but it arrived without any poppy seed dressing—or any dressing at all. Today, I ordered a Caesar chicken salad, and it came with Greek Goddess dressing instead. There was no shaved cheese, just chicken, romaine lettuce, and a few croutons. The first time I spoke with the manager, who said there was nothing he could do because I ordered through DoorDash. It would be helpful if they trained their salad prep staff and the person responsible for confirming the orders! I won't be returning to this Panera again!

I had lunch here today and it was a great experience. The staff was incredibly cheerful and friendly. My food was served quickly and tasted fantastic. I enjoyed a modified deli turkey sandwich along with some cheddar broccoli soup.

Please make sure to check your food before leaving. I previously left a negative review after my second order because they forgot an item. This time, I ordered a chicken Caesar salad, and they forgot the chicken. I guess the saying "third time's a charm" doesn't apply here.
