Small bistro deli like shop, thank goodness it wasn't busy, assuming bcs it was late afternoon and found parking right away. Been wanting to stop by this place for years and due to it closing at 5 during the week, can never make it. Since it's Summer, got to it on my way home from beach day, sooo glad I took that path home. I be was with 2 friends. I had the 1/2 chicken pesto panini with creamy tomato basil soup, deeeeliiiicious! I need to find out how often they make that soup. Friend 1 got the turkey avocado and all I kept hearing was wow, wow and wow! Lol and friend 2 had the black forest ham and Swiss panini, she also said it was very good!! Definitely will be back to try something else :) read more

Paninis - 1/2 chicken pesto and creamy tomato basil soup - Sandwiches Near Me - Signal Hill, California

I drove by this place a few times since it's right on a busy main street with a lot of traffic. I was actually surprised to find parking right in front, which was nice and convenient. When I walked in it was pretty quiet, but it was also right before dinner time. The place feels more like a casual deli spot -- you order at the counter and there are a few tables if you want to sit and eat. The space looked clean and simple, nothing fancy but comfortable enough. The employee working there was very friendly. He came out from the back, answered my questions, and recommended the chicken pesto panini, saying it's their most popular item. I also added a Caesar salad for $2.99, which I thought was a fair price, and decided to try the bread pudding as well. The panini itself was pretty good. The bread was nicely toasted, the cheese was melted well, and the pesto had good flavor. The only downside for me was the chicken -- it seemed like it might have been boiled and then mixed with pesto. It was a bit tougher than I would have liked. The Caesar salad was decent for the price. Unfortunately, the bread pudding didn't work for me. It was very dense and almost brick-like. Overall, the value is there and the staff was very nice. For me personally, the food felt a bit average. I tend to prefer paying a little more for higher quality rather than saving a few dollars on something that doesn't quite hit the mark. Because of that, I probably wouldn't go back, but others might appreciate the price point and friendly service. Food 3 stars. Staff 5 average 4 read more

They need to clean the soda fountain and or ice maker! Always black bits at the bottom of my fountain drink! Gross!! read more

My wife recommended this little Panini place so I finally decided to give it a go. The parking was easy, you can park on the street on in their private lot. When walking in we were greeted immediately with a friendly welcome. The menu had so many choices we didnt know what to choose. We decided to go with a lunch special: full panning, choice of salad and fountain drink for like $15 i think. Definitely enough to satisfy any hunger pains. Inside is small but plenty of seats and they have public restroom for customers. Both paninis were very tasty, the bread had the perfect crispness to it. I think im.safe saying n g we will be back, there were a few things we wanted to try read more

Literally the best Panini place in SoCal! I've never had a panini I haven't liked from here. I just ordered the turkey cranberry panini which tasted like Thanksgiving dinner. The juices are amazing and pair so well with the paninis; I order the Vampiro which is a beet juice concoction. The staff are prompt and welcoming, there's indoor and outdoor seating, although the overall place is relatively small. I've never had trouble finding a seat or parking! read more

Paninis - Turkey Cranberry Panini - Sandwiches Near Me - Signal Hill, California

This place was AMAZING and hands down heads and tails above anything in or near the traffic circle ! IYKYK I happened to wake up and head to my bank near Long Beach but asa human when hungry turns to HANGRY, any one of us can get besides ourselves and this is when we are the pickiest ! So I walked in not expecting to much and my attention was drawn to the Chicken salad with cranberry $13.79 (Chicken salad with cranberries(chicken, green onion, carrots, cranberries, walnuts), Spicy brown mustard, Mayonnaise, Tomato, and Spinach! This was not just delicious but made with love, tenacity and the kind of stubbornness that made this sandwich "SLAP YA MAMMA GOOD" no really that's how good it was perfectly balanced, not messy served with house chips and one sweet pickled cherry popping pepper ! I've traveresed this area my mom friend and clients live in the area and there isn't one place that compete with Panini's near the airport ! In fact dot buy anything on the plane just pack everything up you buy here for the family and hit the tarmac ! Because this is as good as it gets in sandwich land ! read more

Paninis - Chicken Salad Sandwich with cranberries... - Sandwiches Near Me - Signal Hill, California

The best place to get a panini and there is no other place like it. I got the chicken pesto, while my boyfriend got the chicken caesar. The chicken has a good texture to it, the bread has the perfect crunch, and the respective sauces had good flavor. You can upgrade your side of chips, but the chips go best with the sandwich. If you choose to eat in, they have different hot sauces and napkins at each table. Every time I have gone the workers are always kind. I'm excited to try even more of the menu! :) read more

Came here on a Saturday around 10am no wait to order. Parking in the side and one bathroom. Christmas music playing. Ordered the Turkey panini. It was made to order and greens tasted fresh. Bread was crunchy. On the thinner side but good. read more

Decent place, decent sandwiches. Such an insanely small amount of deli sliced turkey in their sandwiches. Chicken is very dry most of the time. The house made chips are good and very generous. Flavors are just okay. If they can increase the amount of sliced meat and the dryness of the chicken, it could be great. read more

Just got home from picking up what I thought was a turkey cranberry panini but got this one instead. Very annoying. Another place that swings their monitor around for a 15%-25% tip when you order but can't do the basics right. Disappointing read more

I got an bacon egg and cheese panini for breakfast. They had a whole variety of paninis that you can order even for breakfast. The lady at the counter was nice. The price wasn't bad considering it came with breakfast potatoes and fruit. I ordered a coffee all under 20 bux read more

The paninis were delicious!! Definitely will be back! I do come from far but taking a drive down isn't so bad. It's a nice drive. The service was fast and the lady had the best recommendations. The inside is small but perfect. They do close at 3 everyday so definitely a weekend thing. Overall best Paninis I've eaten. read more

This was my favorite lunch spot pre-Covid. I was finally back in the area 4 years later and had to stop by. They've updated the tables and added new items to their menu but the chicken pesto panini was still as delicious as it was 4 years ago and is my favorite panini spot. (There's a reason why Corner Bakery and Panera have closed so many locations!) Went extra and got the potato salad to go with it this time and it was some of the best potato salad I've ever had. Food is fresh and was too much for me to finish in one sitting and was so happy to have it for leftovers the next day. Definitely recommend checking them out! read more

Visited the shop for the first time and was planning on ordering a breakfast panini, but was pleasantly surprised to find they offered breakfast burritos. So I ended up ordering the breakfast burrito with bacon. Overall the burrito was very tasty and served super hot so I had to take my sweet time and not devour it like I usually do my breakfast burritos . The tortilla was pressed so it had a good crunch to it and the filling was piping hot and quantity wise wasn't too overwhelming nor skimpy either. The plate also came with a side of fresh fruit and fried potatoes which were so tasty and cooked to perfection. The shop itself was very clean and welcoming. The menu offerings were plenty and looked all so tasty. They had this bread pudding in the display case and is made in-house. I was tempted, but refrained...next time. Both cashier and server were very pleasant and made me feel welcome. I'll need to visit again for lunch someday soon! read more

Great food, great selection and very nice staff. I enjoy the location. It's less than 5 minutes away from my office location.

I love their sandwiches. The bread is crispy and toasted and the size of the sandwiches are filling. I also have tried the vampiro drink which is beets and carrots and other very healthy ingredients. I will say it definitely does taste healthy so don't expect it to be super sweet but I like it. I like this spot for lunch during the weekdays. They do take a minute to prepare your sandwiches so if you wanna take it to go during lunch break, I'd recommend doing that. read more

Great Sandwiches but closes way too early, and closed Sundays. I dunno maybe it's a breakfast restaurant. Closed by 3:00 PM?

This spot is great! Great good. Great service. Quick and easy. I've ordered many times all different kinds from this place and they do not disappoint. Your panini comes with a side salad or pasta or chips and they have many different panini's to choose from. definitely come by read more

There are so many options at Panini's and I've yet to try some of their menu items but I would be a customer even if they ONLY sold their breakfast potatoes. I'm obsessed with how tasty they are! My mom dropped off a breakfast sandwich once and it was so delicious, it came with a side of their breakfast potatoes. I've been hooked since that one day. We stop by for coffee, breakfast, lunch, dessert. No matter the occasion they've always got something yummy to offer. One of my favorite things is their bread pudding. They sell out so you have to call and see if they have some, it's incredible and comes with a white sauce that compliments it very well. I think the prices are great, it's the common price point for California restaurants in 2024. They have some specials sometimes too. The customer service is always great, the staff are so friendly and work very fast to fulfill orders. Paninis is a small place so it gets filled up very fast but they work diligently. To my knowledge there is no parking and that major street it is on is very busy but usually you can find a quick spot right in front. I love Panini's and I hope you stop by and try the bread pudding or the potatoes. Thank me later! ;) read more

The turkey cranberry panini was absolutely amazing that I had to buy another one. It is a very tight space and gets extremely packed. There is seating outside and dog-friendly. Be prepared if you go. Just do a take-out. read more

I ordered the veggie eggplant sandwich. All of the veggies were very fresh and delicious. The sandwich was warm which i love. Shows that it was just pressed rather than just sitting in a window or case. The restaurant is cute and quaint. Very good service. They are the only place on the block with a restroom which is why I ended up there but I decided to grab a bite as well! read more

Passed by this place and there's something about it. Probably you can't deny panini's, the simple grill press to heat bread makes it comforting, here was our experience. AMBIANCE Parking: Street parking, limited but not much of a popping spot, so you should find a place. Seating: Outside seating for about two groups, generally for pairs, and then group seating (4-6) inside. Feels: It's in a casual area of Long Beach. Nothing too flashy, just lowkey. Great place to watch cars pass by. The spot itself has a little homey small business feel. I like the lite rock music was welcoming to start my morning. Great place to chill or pick up. FOOD: Monster Panini Meal (Recommend) What a feast! Seasoned potatoes, medley of fruit, and the panini itself - small patch of spinach, egg, ham, tomatoes, and cheese. Delish, delish, delish! Mixed Salad - Side (Recommend) Mixed indeed from arugula, spinach, tomato, and tomatoes. You have a choice of protein from chicken or tuna. Chocolate Chip Cookie (Recommend) Delightful! Great way to conclude your meal. Brown sugar, crispy, chewy and gooey chocolate. Yum! CUSTOMER SERVICE: Awesome! Friendly people. The line was pretty lengthy but you can hang out at other spots to kill time. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. Good price, great selections, and good service. It's a low-key gem but not surprised it's been alive for the past 25 years. There food is solid and I'm sure a favorite to locals, especially that going for a grab and bite. For a comforting panini, with not too much hustle and bustle, this is a great spot. Tips: * Check out their specials! * Check in for a dollar off! read more

Manager is very rude I ordered online it said 15-20 minutes. Was ready in two minutes I let the manager know it was my first time and I wanted a fresh sandwich and he refused and wasn't empathetic at all. Will never order again. I picked the online order up. I asked for utensils it didn't come with napkins or anything. The sandwich is cold, the chips are stale. By far the worst first experience from a food place yet. read more
