All'antico Vinaio Reviews
I love that this sandwich shop originating from Italy is now in the US! Yes, some of the sandwiches are Americanized, but I’m totally cool with it because WE LOVE THE HOT HONEY TURKEY SANDWICH OH MY GOODNESS!
Had heard great things from colleagues, so I decided to stop in and see what the hype was about. While I was looking over the menu, the lady working at the time greeted me and even offered samples of a few spreads on bread, which was a nice touch since some of the ingredients were unfamiliar to me.
I ended up ordering a weekly special with prosciutto, arugula, artichoke cream, and stracchino, and added nduja after trying it and liking the flavor. The sandwich was delicious...read full review
La Summer is personally my favorite. The bread is fantastic and you can taste the quality in food. I wish the seating in the front was more private as many individuals disturb you while eating. Indoor seating is great though.

All'antico Vinaio is a popular restaurant originally from Florence, Italy, now with a location in Santa Monica. Known for its large, delicious sandwiches, the restaurant attracts many visitors despite high prices—around $20 per sandwich, with additional tax. The bread is fresh, and the meats are good, with interesting toppings like Pistachio Creme that make the sandwiches stand out from a typical Italian deli. The Paradiso sandwich is highly recommended, praised for its perfect, warm, and silky ingredients that create an indulgent experience. Customers often find the location convenient, especially if they are visiting the 3rd Street Promenade, and it’s considered the best place in Santa Monica for sandwiches, alongside other favorites. The staff is friendly and helpful, although some reviews mention that new employees could benefit from more guidance. The ambiance is clean and comfortable, making it a good spot for a quick lunch or take-out. While dine-in experiences are generally positive, there have been some issues with delivery orders, with delays and missing sandwiches. Overall, All'antico Vinaio is celebrated for its outstanding quality and convenient location, making it a favorite for those craving a tasty, satisfying sandwich in Santa Monica.
