However, I was disappointed with the French Onion Soup in a bread bowl I had this past Sunday—the portion was noticeably smaller than in previous years, with barely a cup of soup in the small bread bowl. I would have preferred to order the soup in a regular bowl with a side of bread for better balance. My sister, on the other hand, loved her BBQ chicken salad and says it’s her go-to Panera order. We also tried several lemonade flavors but found them high in calories and unnecessarily caffeinated, so we didn’t enjoy those. If anyone from Panera reads this, I suggest keeping the flavors but making them sugar-free and caffeine-free. Despite these letdowns, the service was good, and parking was easy and plentiful at the Galleria location. Overall, I’ll continue coming to Panera for work meetings and convenience but now know what to avoid ordering next time.

I ordered a soda and was pleasantly impressed by the beautiful setting and tidy interior. The cashier was also very helpful and kindly checked my rewards card for me.
