What to Order
Il Classico Panini
This signature panini features a delicious combination of mortadella, capicollo, provolone, artichokes, olives, and hot banana peppers, all brought together with pesto mayo and balsamic.
"The mortadella is rich, the capicollo has just enough kick, and the provolone ties it all together. Then you get the artichokes, olives, and hot banana peppers hitting you with that salty, tangy punch. The pesto mayo and balsamic? Unreal"
Ricardo Martinez
Fresco Panini
A highly recommended panini, praised for its fantastic taste and fresh ingredients, making it a popular choice among regulars.
"The CLASSICO PANINO and FRESCO PANINO were absolutely fantastic! Highly recommend them, and I can't wait to return and try more items from their menu! 🤤✨"
Kiki
Meatball Sandwich
A hearty and delicious sandwich, though be prepared for it to be a bit messy due to its generous fillings.
"We had meatball and Neapolitan sandwiches. They both were delicious, but the meatball could get a bit messy."
Mohammad Moshtaghi
Cannoli
A surprisingly good dessert with a nutty, creamy texture, providing a sweet finish to your meal.
"Service was quite slow but food was excellent! Cannoli was surprisingly good with nutty creamy texture. Will be back to try other sandwiches!"
Mr. Beaver
Bella Della Tella
A dessert item that is highly praised for its deliciousness and quality, made with evident care.
"Had the Bella Della tella, crema al cafe, and the cannoli. Absolutely worth every penny. Made with love."
