“Worst location. I have never been in Panera Bread this dirty before. I visit this chain few times a week all over norther VA, this place was bad…every table was dirty and greasy, filthy bathroom..it was horrible. I felt like getting up and leaving right away. I told one of the employees that tables need to be wiped and he acknowledged the issue. Ten minutes later I saw one of employees running around spraying tables barely wiping them dry. I had to get up and finish the job myself. Panera Bread, this is not up to your standards! Very disappointing. Will avoid this location at all cost.

UPDATE: Gave this location another try and was pleasantly surprised with an improved service and cleanliness of the place so I am updating my review rating. Please keep it up for your customers.“

“Anybody dissing this place gotta chill. This was the first time I went, fast service and the food was amazing with zero mistakes. The coffee was super good as well, and the girl who served us was so nice and also beautiful, if you guys see this I came in at like 6pm, Monday June 29th. 😁“

“Had eggs Benedict from there today. Awesome. Tasted wonderful! I was impressed for my first visit there!“

“We ordered a cake for my daughter’s graduation and it was amazing and delicious. We ordered a butter cake with cannoli cream filling. All we did was give the name of the high school and gave the decorator freedom to design. They designed an awesome cake using the school colors, even including the school crest. It was a showcase piece of the party.“

“Super nice owners. Delicious food.“

“Clifton Cafe is our new favorite evening spot on the weekends. We’ve been customers since the original owners opened it years ago, but until this past fall we did more to go orders than dine in since the service and time to prep food was often slow and unpredictable. Now we go almost every week. We’ve noticed big improvements since they expanded their kitchen and redesigned the bar area. Their new pull up bar is beautiful and spacious. The new owners and management are great too! We love the evening staff as well, especially Ian and Nicole. They are very personable, accommodating, and attentive. They have great happy hour specials from 3-6 and make the best margaritas and espresso martinis. Some of our favorite dinner items include the crab dip, Mediterranean salad, cuban sandwich, burgers, crab cakes, quiche specials, banana pudding, and too many crepes to name! We also appreciate that they have become more family friendly. We had a last minute party of 14 on a Friday evening (half of which were children ages 1-11) and they didn’t hesitate to pull some tables together in a private nook to accommodate our large group (again thanks to Ian and Nicole). We noticed they finally got a changing table in the large bathroom, which they are about to install. Our kids are past that stage, but there were several times when they were little that a changing table would have been helpful.“

“Wonderful food and coffee! Staff was so friendly and welcoming. I ordered the caramel espresso latte and a chorizo breakfast burrito! Enjoyed all of it! Staff was accommodating to substitutions needed! Can’t wait to come back and try the lunch options! Will be back!“

“This is THE BEST pastries I’ve ever had! So fresh, delicious, creative, flavorful, and appealing to the eye!!!!!“

“This place is the best! I've tried a handful of drinks and all of them have been absolutely delicious. I've tried some of the food, and it has also been amazing. The staff is very attentive and polite, and there are a selection of board games available to play. The seating is comfortable and the atmosphere is great.“

“Best Matcha ice cream and other soft serve…. Yummy 🤤“

“Delicious tea , friendly staffs“

“Hands down, the best cheesesteak I've ever had — a solid 10/10.
If you're local, this spot is an absolute must-try. The meat was perfectly seasoned and tender, the cheese melted just right, and the roll was fresh and held everything together without getting soggy. Plus, you need to add jalapeno, it's a kick!!! Every bite was packed with flavor. You can tell they put care into every detail. Whether you're a cheesesteak connoisseur or just looking for a great meal, you won’t be disappointed. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Love the service and friendly stuff“

“Thank you, Nediera. (I hope I spelled that correctly) And your recommendation was on point ;) Thank you!
And I wanted to add, I listened to something thereafter about how humans need an example to act upon and mirror at times, and I was personally going through something and you served as the prime example of this lesson..
Thank you for the kindness and generosity!..!“

“Great Cafe! I have a few favorites here. Try the Lee's favorite, Italian Cold Cut, or the California Club. They have daily specials that include combos with fries and a drink. The ladies that work here do a great job and everything is delicious.“

“Almost every time I need to go out for lunch I go to gallery cafe. The people are really nice and make the food with love. The food is really good and very reasonably priced. I especially like the pastrami sandwich and paninis. 10/10 highly recommend!“

“authentic Japanese, fuffly pancakes are amazing“

“That great and the shop decorated good“

“This Panera is well-run. It’s a “to-go” place and Hina is always welcoming with a smile. All the staffs are welcoming to be honest and place is clean. More like my favorite mobile ordering location for Panera. Kudos guys!“

“Stopped in this evening to pick up meals. LOTS of choices! My family and I each tried a different meal and all three were very good! We will definitely be back for more!“

“homey“

“Delicious lunch today. Friendly, attentive staff and lovely atmosphere. Dogs very welcome! Look forward to our next visit.“

“Today was my second time visiting Checkers Deli & Cafe and I think I found my place for breakfast and lunch. Their portions are generous and the entire team is very efficient. You can mark my words when I say your food will come out in less than 2 minutes. I was feeling bold today and I ordered the kimchi and bulgogi wrap and let me tell you, IT WAS THE BEST BULGOGI BURRITO I HAD!!! I'm excited to try rest of their menu as I keep coming but I would highly recommend this deli if you are looking for a quality, quick, and delicious breakfast and lunch!“

“After a long, lackluster day of a birthday—I went to Lulu cafe. And it was the best way possible to conclude my birthday last night. The vibe was really chill and energetic at the same time. The staff as well as the customers just made it a wonderful place to celebrate with my friends. The karaoke rooms had great sound quality and everything about it was designed for a good time. I will definitely be back. Everyone was dancing and getting hyped, even if they were just sitting down and drinking. It was like being on an episode of Adventure Time. High energy, humorous and just solid times.“

“Loved all of the dishes!
Crispy Chicken Kapow- Must have. The crispy tender chicken with the fried basil and flavorful sauce topped on some white rice, amazing.
Shrimp Tom Kha- decent! Similar to tom yum, could be a bit more coconut-y
Beef drunken noodles- The noodles has incredible flavor. The beef- not so much. Noodles were thick, coated, and had lots of umami to them.
Beef spicy basil fried rice- loved it. So much flavor, the beef was great on this.
Penang chicken curry- very nutty, definitely something for people that don’t prefer spice, creamy and rich curry served with rice.
Creme brulee thai iced tea- loved it! Crispy sugar top with a creamy layer to mix in
Mango Creamy cheese drink- reminded me of mango lassi with a hint of cream cheese

TLDR: def go, try the crispy chicken kapow and beef basil fried rice“

“Alyssa is the kindest and sweetest Panera employee I have ever met. I made a mistake with my order, came back into the restaurant and asked for assistance. Alyssa rectified MY mistake within 5 minutes and at no charge to me. This kind of customer service is no longer common, however, I am grateful to have had such a pleasant experience at Panera because of Alyssa’s kind heart. Thank you! 🩷“
