The only time I eat here is when it's someone else's idea. Not that the food isn't great, but the crowd is annoying. The place is always slammed. I guess that's a good thing. Means the food is pretty darn good. And you know what? It is pretty darn good. I'd recommend it to anyone.
I hate to say this, but since the arrival of Cafe Zupas, I always refer them over Panera Bread when a friend suggests we eat here. The sandwiches, soups and salads are just better. But, they suffer the same thing this place does. Very crowded. This place isn't as congested as Zupas, so I would come here more often if I didn't want an issue with finding a place to sit and being able to hear the person sitting across from me.
Great food here. Great food. I recommend. Just be ready for the packed house if coming for lunch.
