Whenever I have a new admin assistant start, the first item covered in the orientation is that I consider ordering Jason’s or Panera for lunch to be a fireable offense.

To me, Panera has always been a "I want something decent to eat at this generic middle american airport, but don't have time to sit down at any of the sit-down places here" place.  My wife, on the other hand, has actually asked to go there, on purpose, while we're running errands on the weekend or somesuch.  But even she was relating that in recent months -- after private equity has inserted itself in Panera's operations -- Panera has gone way downhill.  

I've never had a meal there that I actually "enjoyed."  Their best is always "fine."

I'd agree with "fine", but it always was overpriced.

Thought about McAllister’s too but don’t recall if they have breakfast. 

I can't think of a better way to start my day than a slightly-below-average pastrami on marbled rye and a better-than-most enormous iced tea.

Whataburger...breakfast tacos/sandwiches, burgers, grilled/fried chicken breast, fried fish sandwich, 3 different salads, deserts.  You can take advantage of the unlimited additions/subtractions to make off menu chicken fajita tacos. since those were discontinued.

Love their Breakfast Burritos with egg & cheese !

Yep.  We actually stop in to Jason's for lunch on the weekend every now and then.

And man, are you spot-on about the difference between their catering menu and their actual menu.  The best fucking things on the menu are their muffaletta and their gumbo....and you can't get either on a goddamned catering tray.  "Hey, we have an item that everyone loves, that we're most famous for.  What's that?  You want us to cater your meeting?  Well fuck you, you sure as shit can't get the thing we're famous for!"

Yup, whole muffuletta might be 2-3 lunches for me if I'm not super hungry.

A taquito with one topping is $4.25 and it is a shitty excuse for a taco. 
 

Pro tip: add grilled onions and jalapeños (have to ask in person, the app is communist)

add Corner Bakery to the list also. We have pretty solid catering company that handles 90% of our onsite meetings but a few people always do Corner Bakery and god damn it sucks ass

show me a better fast food breakfast than a fuckin' BOB.  It's poetry.  Egg McMuffin is dry in comparison. Sausage McMuffin doesn't touch it. Every once in a while my kid will ask for a McGriddle. That's damn good but it isn't a BOB.

Portillo’s might be in the running. They cover a lot of bases. 

Great call, especially if you go to one co-branded that sells pasta.

I don’t even like Italian beef that much, but am a sucker for sides like gravy bread, eclair cake, chocolate cake.
