I was stuck in Solon, Ohio for a week of meetings, with only a KFC and a Longhorn Steakhouse nearby to keep me company. It was like my throat had been cut. On the way home, going through Cleveland Airport, I stumbled upon Panini's and ordered the overstuffed sandwich with turkey and a fried egg. When the waitress came by and asked how everything was, I deleriously replied, "This is the best sandwich eveeeeer..." (Homer style). I would have scored Panini's a five but will need to try it again when I haven't been starved for a week. read more

*** Food * Service * Location I can't say enough about this place. I fly United (what used to be Continental) all the time because I live in Los Angeles and I am from Cleveland. United has the only non-stop flight to and from LA. It just so happens there is a PANINI'S in the United terminal concourse!!!!! Italian style sandwiches stuffed with coleslaw and french fries. Where can you go wrong? These tasty treats come in many varieties, and sure they have other food- but WHY would you just not get the capicola? Wings are good if you'd prefer that- but TRUST me you need to get these sandwiches. I usually eat half there, and then half for dinner when I get home to LA. Yeah I bring it on the place. Yeah it's usually my only carry on. If it's less than 4 stars, check the review- it MUST have been on another food item. I can't vouch for any breakfast or buffets or anything other than wings and sandwiches. You've got to go with the sandwiches. You just gotta. Oh- and there's tables, bar seating, tv's and all that sort of thing. Do: Capicola Sandwich, Italian Sandwich, Bloody Mary read more

Seeing as this is a restaurant at an airport, I thought I'd be emptying my wallet, but was surprised to see how well everything is priced! I got a classic entree with Chicken Tenders and fries - it also came with a delishious side of Coleslaw and man, was it great! Definitely going back whenever I have layovers in Cleveland! My server, Cynthia, was polite, friendly and professional, glad she could brighten my day! read more

Panini's - My order of Chicken Tenders with Fries and Coleslaw. I also had a dipping cup of sweet honey bbq sauce. - Sandwiches Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

This place is where to be if you are flying through Cleveland. They do everything right. Good beer, good food (even though they have dropped the veggie burger from the menu), electrical outlets everywhere, considerate fast service...what's not to like? I wish LAX had a place like this! read more

Had the BBQ pork sandwhich. Pretzel bun was pretty greasy for my liking but tasty. Pork was tender. Sauce was very runny and low on the flavor profile. Fries were served luke warm and clumped together :/ Waitresses didn't make eye contact. They don't provide airport employee discounts. Blech! read more

Waiting for our flight. Again, why is it that "usually" airport establishments generally provide worse customer service? I asked the bartender if they had anything from Great Lakes Brewing and she waved her hand back saying "only in a bottle". I look and all I see are bottles of various booze and beer bottles and ask "what kind" as I can't differentiate everything and she looks at me like I'm blind. Airports must be good locations for people without customer service skills to find employment! On the bright side the cup of Chicken Tortilla Soup my wife ordered and the Cheesy Bacon Fries I ordered were very good! read more

Not a bad place. Sat at the bar during my layover the only thing on the menu was the pizza beer is expensive but I would have guess that since we were at the airport. The pizza was pretty decent read more

Well, let's see. They offer a breakfast buffet, which is way over-priced, and is no better than an continental breakfast you would see at a Quality Inn. I was waiting for my flight, so I had to hang out here. The only saving grace is the excellent service. God bless those waitresses, they are so nice. Otherwise, overpriced, tasteless food. They're lucky they're in an airport. Otherwise they'd go out of business. read more

It is hard to imagine but I went with the pizza. I will say that they had a wide variety of choices all the way from the starters to entrees. I got the original crust versus the thin crust, however I found out the original crust is pretty thin itself. The must be cracker crust. There wasn't full cheese coverage and the pizza was a little heavy on the sauce but not excessive. The sauce was also a little sweet so I had to add crushed red pepper to tang it up! At least they had Dr Pepper unlike most of the restaurants in New Jersey. I will say for an airport restaurant the pizza was reasonably priced - $8.99 for a 10". It was a nice atmosphere with multiple televisions, music, and plenty of seating. The servers were nice and attentive but it was a little slow when I was there. I dropped the overall rating from a 4 to a 3 due to the pizza quality. read more

Had the most spicy wings. They smell funny. Will Smith the manager came out to assure us the wings were fine and the smell was fine. He is very personable and really desires everything to be excellent. Yes that really is the managers name. read more

What an excellent airport find! They have a bit of everything and whereas the sandwiches looked amazing, the pizza really caught my eye. It was an amazing photo of pizza and the actual pizza came out looking just as the picture. Thicker crust and completely fresh, made to order. We had been waiting awhile, and with a flight to catch, we inquired about our pizza. There was some sort of printer malfunction and it wasn't really put in but they totally made up for it. They made it immediately from there and and even comped the pizza after apologizing. We had time left so it was good. They have a good selection of beer, local and not and the service was amazing! read more

Not bad for airport food. I only ordered the chicken wings, but I liked them. Service was great. Everyone was so friendly!

By far the worst in the airport. I am a flight attendant and eat many meals in airports. I ordered a simple BLT. How can you screw up a BLT?!?! I received a half ass attempt at someone smearing mayo on one side of the toast. I may have got approx. 1 teaspoon. Some of the bacon was crisp and the other half was par cooked. The fries were soggy. The restaurant was not busy and yet I waited about 15minutes for my to-go sandwich. Don't waste your money. By the way, my flying partners corn beef sandwich was terrible as well. read more

After a horrible experience at The Pub, we came to Panini's to redeem our breakfast experience. We fly out of Cleveland quite a bit, and have had ok experiences in the past of other restaurants in the airport (The Pub being the worst). Amy was our server/bartender and was awesome, friendly, and the food was great (breakfast buffet). Will def come back here when we fly next. read more

I was walking down to Great Lakes but decided to stop here and save the walk. Overstuffed sandwich was good with lots of fries on the sandwich. But the main reason for the review was the service. DeAnne was great; someone who seemed like a really nice person who actually loved her job. Worth a stop. read more

Great choice for an airport stop. Food was served fresh and hot, service really awesome, and - in terms of airport prices - reasonable.

Very little expectation on airport restaurants, but it turns out surprisingly good. Their pizza is nicely done and wings are saucy. The salad is a bit of disappointment. Nonetheless, a good experience overall especially the waitress was so attentive. read more

Stopped in for lunch prior to a business flight to Los Angeles. I've had a lot of airport food and I must say this was the best airport burger I've ever had. The fries were typical panini fries which are nothing to write home about, but the burger was juicy and delicious. I would have no qualms in stopping in for lunch again on my next flight out of town. read more

Grabbing a quick bite to eat in Terminal C of the Cleveland airport. Panini's is very good! Taking into account that is in an airport, it's excellent! We tried the Ragin' Cajun chicken sandwich. It's marinated chicken with a slight kick on thick sour dough bread with green peppers and onions. We also got the club sandwich. It's also good--ham, turkey, and cheese. For sides, we had chips for one sandwich and a side salad for the other. Both were great! Panini's is definitely a place to try if you're near or at the Cleveland airport! read more

They have a flight board in the restaurant which is great for traveling! Food and people are great too. Best in the airport by far. read more

Panini's - Sandwiches Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

We finally found a place to eat and the food was great. The fresh cut fries were great and the BLT was also. More importantly Tami was a delight! She was all smiles and seated us promptly and was just a friendly, courteous server. This was the third place we went to try to get a bite to eat before leaving on vacation. The other places told us they were closing and one place the servers were just rude so we left. Definitely will return! read more

We had the corned beef and pastrami overstuffed sandwiches. It was very good and reasonable price. Our waitress was excellent and will come back. read more

I would have given this place 7 stars if it were an option, great food and drinks....Dave our waitress "yes, Dave is a girl" was fun, funny and an all around blast to spend time with!! And is gorgeous on top of all that.... Definite stop if you find your self with some time in the Cleveland airport.... read more

We only had drinks, but we observed quite a bit. I am amazed at any restaurant that can offer "normal" pricing in an airport. Panini's does that quite well. And portion size... extra kudos for that! The wine appears to be about an 8 ounce pour. We watched various food items being served, and were quite impressed by the general appearance, and the portion size. read more

Oh boy. baaad bartender. My girlfriend comes through this place for a sandwich. Btw. Shes the sweetest little thing. Social, but extremely friendly and non confrontational. just an all around sweet and nice to everyone kind a girl. And quite beautiful, which makes her quite unique young lady! While ordering from the bartender she asks for blue cheese on the side. The bartender takes her order, and its brought out to my girl. my girl tips the bartender %25 and is on her way, only to realize there's no blue cheese. classic setup for customer service test. What happens? This bartender sticks it to my lady hard! instead of just giving her the cheese she paid for already, she gives my girl a long 3 second look of womanly hatred and says "that'l be .79 cents." now to all you restaurant goers, you see whats going on here. its not about the .79 cents. its personal. so my girl, sweet as she is, very kind inquires into the fact that she didnt get the blue cheese she already paid for. Two words come from the bartender. "prove it". So i gave this place ONE star, since i was talked out of calling the establishment and ripping A-holes all around. There is no excuse for washed up alpha female wannabes to take out there 40 years of failure on my sweet girl. she was nothing but kind. So if youre in the airport, avoid this place. This bartender is an older, somewhat attractive lady with dark hair that she wore in a pony tail. If you think you can get away with treating people like crap because youre an airport establishment, youre wrong. I invite the owners to contact me, certainly repetitions of this cant be good for your reviews or business. read more

So, I wasn't really expecting much from this place. I was stuck in an airport and all too often, everything is overpriced and not all that great. I was looking for a good place to eat and someone asked me if I needed help. I explained what I was looking for and they recommended this place. I went and checked out their menu; to my surprise, there was a lot to offer and the prices were actually very reasonable. I ended up getting the breakfast burger. It had a fried egg, bacon, ham, and cheese all with a beef burger. They offered a variety of bun choices too. So yeah, I was already happy with the options and the prices, but even more happy when they brought out the food. Not only were there tons of fries, but they were good. The best part, however, was the burger. Honestly, it's probably in my top five burgers that I've ever eaten. And for all that food and only being around $11, that's pretty amazing. Highly recommended!!! read more
