Noodles and Company

I have driven past this place many times, but I have never stopped because I am gluten-free. This time I was so hungry I didnt care. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that they offer gluten-free pasta!! I placed my order for the special which was pulled pork topped mac n cheese. We ordered the Thai soup as a starter, and my boyfriend got the Stroganoff. While waiting, a waiter came to the table and very graciously said they were out of gluten-free noodles but they had vermicelli rice noodles. I really didnt care and said, no problem. The Thai soup was a large portion with really nice, subtle Thai flavors. I thought the Stroganoff was good too, not over salted for fast-food and a nice creaminess. My boyfriend thought it was so-so. Mine looked like a bowl of shredded cheese, there was so much! I mixed it all up and it was very good. A little too much pasta to meat ratio, but hit the comfort food spot! Later the waiter brought over a giant cookie and rice crispy treat since they had to substitute my meal. It was unexpected and I was so excited! I LOVE rice crispy treats and it was absolutely amazing! The snickerdoodle was delicious, too. I reheated the leftovers the next day and everything was still good. Ill be back.

Very disappointed. I ordered potato soup with sandwich. When the sandwich was brought to the table I was told there was no potato soup now, not that they ran out at 11:30 am, but that they are not serving it for a while. I pointed out that is is on the order board, the employee replied yeah we havent taken it off yet. I then said Ill take the clam chowder then, she said all we are serving at this time is broccoli cheddar & chicken with rice. There are 4 or 5 soups listed on the order board, again the employee replied we are not selling those now, we just havent taken them off the board. She then rolled her eyes at me when I said I want my money back then for the soup I ordered & paid for that was not being offered. Will be a long time before I waste my time there again. If you are not going to sell an item then do not advertise that you are selling it.

I go to Panera at Clayton for quite often, at least twice a week! I love the place!! It's really clean, food is good and absolutely great stuff! I will even point out one of the teen workers Artur, he always helps me with the kiosks since I'm not really good with technology and always knows enraging about the menu and Ingredients!I also want to point out the fact that Artur is able to sign in American Sign Language which makes it easier for us (Dead people) to order and enjoy our time spending at Panera. I would highly recommend!!

Isla Restaurant

Hidden gem in Concord! The food was perfectly seasoned and they did not compensate for gringos by making the food bland and barely spicy (like a bell pepper). Their two salsas that are served with chips are bold, and one is spicier than the other, so you can choose. We went on a Friday during Lent and the fish tacos did not disappoint. Crispy garnish with a single jalapeno slice and fish cooked perfect.... Totally worth the wait. Staff brought over my Jarritos but forgot my bfs water, and we waited about 30min for our food but they had a huge order just before we sat down, so I completely understand. I think theres only one guy in the back cooking, but food was consistent, and ingredients were top notch and thats what really matters. The price was surprisingly high for a Chile relleno, governor, and fish tacos, I felt like maybe a mistake had been made, but everyone Ive asked in my circles agreed this is a fair price, so Im admitting I dont get out much. Great place but order ahead if youre starving after work driving home!

Tasty Szechuan

Yep, best new Chinese restaurant in Concord for sure. Opened just a couple months ago, they run a tight ship already. Food comes out fast, is delicious, portions generous and prices great. Staff is friendly, check up on you frequently, and thank you for coming. Glad I tried it out and already ready to come back again! Hot and sour soup was great, dry pot was flavorful (those peppercorns!!), beef noodle soup hearty, and chicken with broccoli very generous and tasty. Thank you!

Aung Burma

Best Burmese restaurant in the Bay Area in my opinion. The restaurant is so clean and service is superb. Coconut chicken noodle soup had layers of flavors and the whole tilapia dish topped with green mango relish was just refreshing. Can’t wait till the next visit!

This place is Legendary!Craft beer is important, and this place takes that responsibility very seriously.What a perfect venue to enjoy a curated selection of the craft beer industry's finest pours and bottles!Although the space is small, it is well deigned and takes advantage of every square inch. A combination of indoor and outdoor seating nestled into a historic part of town.They have a combination of drafts and bottles/cans (you can purchase bottles/can to stay or to go), and even if you're new to craft beer you cannot go wrong with any selection.The service staff are very knowledgeable about all of the products, make great recommendations based on your tastes, and best of all . . . they pour the beers 100% properly - with the appropriate amount of foam, in the correct glassware, at the right temperature. We ordered 8 different beers with our party, so we unintentionally tested this among a broad range of styles.Flawless!Very impressed with this place as it has been on my bucket list for many years.It definitely exceeded all expectations.Cannot wait to return again and again.Cheers!

Fresh Box - Poke Bowl & Boba Bubble Tea (TakeOu...
1645 Willow Pass Rd, Concord, CA 94520, United States
The service industry is never easy but it doesnt cost any business extra time money or energy to share concern or act interested. I ate with my GF who unfortunately found hair in her food. Now this happens time to time but it is not necessarily about the hair in the food as much as it is about how they take care of the issue.When we notice the long strand we brought it to the attention of the employee, she recognized it right away as the red hair was one of her employees and said oh thats hers, and walked away. Not once did she apologize, offer to remake the food, give a credit or a refund, or simply act like she cared. Respectfully I brought this to her attention away from other customers so this would not create a scene. The lack of concern or interest was extremely alarming.I write this review to make it clear that this company still does not care about issues like this if they have not moved forward to take action such as wearing hair nets or having a clear frame cover over the food so this doesnt happen.As for quality the food is par. Not much flavor in the fish that barely taste A- grade. Unfortunately, the flavor really comes from adding all the extra ingredients sauces and toppings. Small atmosphere that is quite and feels like a somewhat clean fast food joint.Overall great concept, horrible execution, par food. Its really not that hard for a small business to care about its customers and for that reason I am better off going elsewhere where only 5 min away I can have better quality, better experience and service where people care, which is not asking for much.
