    Since we had 3 small kids with us with picky taste, we wanted to find a sandwich shop where we knew we could find a simple sandwich for them to enjoy and they something else for my wife and myself. Panino came in clutch. They had a great kids menu where all our kids could get a small sandwich for them to enjoy and then a large selection of hot and cold sandwiches for us parents. Despite it being busy, our order came out within 5ish minutes. Though I will say they almost gave us someone else's order as well so maybe just double check before you head out that you have your order (& only yours). The eating area is next to nothing but we got lucky enough to find a bench along the sidewalk just outside for the kids to sit down and enjoy some shade from the tree overhead. My wife enjoyed her pesto sandwich and I enjoyed my chicken salad sandwich. I will say mine was messy & not really built for eating on the go or even standing up, but that's the nature of the sandwich, not how it was made. The flavors were perfect, the portions were very generous, and just overall it was a great lunch experience. We even had many people walk by us, stop, and ask where we got our meals saying it looked delicious. We were more than happy to just point and say right behind them. We were like free advertisement for the restaurant and brought them in at least 3 groups of people. With how great everything tasted, we were happy do to do. My only complaints really are that I wish there was more eating area. I would've preferred to have an actual table for us to sit and relax while eating our lunch. Maybe next time we'll get our order to go and then bring it somewhere else in town that has more public tables to enjoy the meal more comfortably.

    Good sandwich shop. Fresh ingredients. Quick service. Seating is mainly outdoors with a couple of indoor seats. We ordered the Black Forest ham sandwich, chickens and red pepper sandwich, the chicken and prosciutto, and the panino club. They all tasted good except the panino club... The Stilton cheese was overpowering the sandwich. Stilton cheese is an English blue cheese which can be an acquired taste.

    Hubby & I wanted a light lunch & found this place on Yelp. Ambiance is tiny with only couple of tables inside but the outdoor patio had plenty of seats. We came here on a Monday afternoon & business was slow so we got to order right away. Waited about 20 min until our server brought our order to the table. Hubby had the Italian combo with a side of harvest salad & I had the roasted chicken pesto w/a garden salad. Both of us agreed the sandwich & salad were legit. The ingredients inside the sandwich blended well together & salad was light & refreshing. We shared a bottle of red lager which went well with the sandwich. I will definitely swing by whenever I'm in the area & craving a good sandwich.

    We ordered couple of sandwiches to go and had picnic on a beach. We all love our sandwiches, highly highly recommend!

    Turkey pesto
    Monica R.

    Stopped by on a sunday afternoon for a quick bite. The sandwich options were endless and all sounded really good. I got the turkey pesto and it was perfect. Lots od turkey and the bread was fresh and soft. The employees are all very welcoming and the place has plenty of shaded seating outside.

    I had a brain fart while getting food here. The menu outside of the restaurant actually belonged to the restaurant next door so when I ordered a panini I didn't receive the response that I expected. Now at the front of the long line I had to pivot quickly. The gal at the register was able to create a custom sandwich for me that wasn't a panini but tasted very good. I ended up getting a turkey with avocado, cheese and lettuce (nice lettuce!) with honey mustard dressing with real honey. 3.5 stars!

    Chicken Pesto

    Came in to grab a chicken pesto sandwich to go and it was flavorful, fresh, and filling for $15. I love this place for sandwiches.

    Must Know: Italian Combo was delicious; free parking all around Solvang; not a lot of places were opened for lunch service on Tuesday so great spot to check out for a quick bite. Here are our 5 Star FAPS: Food (F): We ordered one Italian Combo sandwich on focaccia bread to share. It was a great portion size. We added on kettle chips. They have a great selection of them. It was nicely presented and halved for us on these plates. Ambiance (A): Nice outdoor seating. We preferred the outside seating option with the fresh air and beautiful architecture of Solvang. Quiet and calm on a Tuesday afternoon. Parking: FREE! Lots of lots and street parking. It was relatively empty on a Tuesday. Unsure what the weekend parking situation is like in terms of crowdedness. Service (S): Such kind of friendly staff. Fast service and no wait. It was a great bite before grabbing a sweet treat at one of the bakeries nearby!

    Located in the heart of Solvang, this is a solid spot for an easy lunch. You order at the counter, get a number, and then sit outside in the shared courtyard, where they bring the food to you. There's a dedicated section of tables just for Panino. We visited during a busy holiday weekend, so the wait was about 30 minutes for two sandwiches. The sandwiches were solid--delicious and satisfying--but a bit on the pricey side at around $15 each. Still, it's a good option if you're looking for a quick, tasty meal in a charming location. Would definitely come back to try more!

    Stopped by Peasant's Deli and ordered the Tuna Sando and the Kobe Sando…read more The Tuna Sando immediately jumped into my top three tuna sandwiches I've had. It was loaded with flavor from the Conservas Ortiz white tuna, boquerones, piquillo peppers, egg, arugula, and tonnato sauce. Honestly, I took one bite and completely forgot to take a proper picture. That's usually a good sign. We also tried the Kobe Sando, which was very tasty as well. The bread was a little firmer than I personally prefer, but it still worked well with the sandwich and didn't take away from the overall experience. We sat outside along the side of the restaurant and really enjoyed the seating area. Inside, the deli is just as interesting. They have displays of aged meats and a walk-in room arcade that feels like a hidden gem. It's a unique touch that adds a lot of character to the space. What really stood out was the staff. Everyone we interacted with was genuinely friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. Great food, great atmosphere, and great hospitality. Can't wait to come back and work my way through more of the menu.

Better than any of them. Period. I've seen them make it 3 or 4 different ways. Usually they serve 2 or so styles at a time. It's always fantastic. Their Godfather is a take on the Bay Cities Godmother. A pretty great one at that. Their jamon is incredible. They just get that great sandwiches are made first and foremost with great ingredients. There is no hiding quality on a sando, and they don't try. The portions are huge, and it's all so, so good. You can't go wrong here.

This place is non-descript yet just off the main park downtown, and an easy walk from most of the major hotels in town, or the central parking lot - plus lots of street parking as well. It seems rather small, with one area for bar seating and small tables, plus a larger dining area "next door" to the bar, but I like the bar ambiance, so it may be challenging on busy tourist days. Luckily, I travel on non-busy days and have always had a good seat. The ambiance is great, with a typical, colorfully decorated pub feel with TVs offering an invitation to relax and have a pint - or two! The menu is varied, and I had planned for what I wanted, but when the server/bartender/boss offered the daily special as an option, I quickly jumped at the chance. The special was a queso dip with house-made chips, and I had to try it! Sadly, I also ordered my usual, the Cobb salad. Sadly, because after the "appetizer" arrived, I quickly realized the full consequences of the saying "your eyes are bigger than your stomach!" The dip and chips were plentiful in both, and for me would have made a great meal on their own. But I was committed and managed to finish the salad. On my previous visit, I had the mac 'n cheese and the Cobb salad, along with a Guinness dark! That was sooo tasty as well! The food at this visit was great, and the service was as well. Sam, who is the owner, bartender, server, and jack-of-all-trades, is always friendly, professional, and efficient, no matter how busy it is, and this visit was the only one outside the kitchen.

The bread on the sandwich had the perfect crisp as well, which really brought it all together. And the standout was the spicy melt burger. My friend ordered it medium rare, and it came out perfectly medium rare--juicy, flavorful, and cooked exactly as requested (which doesn't always happen, so that's worth noting). Everything was executed really well, and you can tell they take pride in the kitchen. Easy 5 stars. Would definitely come back.
