We’ve been going to this restaurant for several years. The last several times have not been good. Today was the worst. My Cuban sandwich was burnt. My sweet potato fries were so overcooked that they were extremely hard. After waiting a while, we finally asked where our food was . Then it comes out like this. Service was very slow and there was not a lot of people in the restaurant.

Food was not good. Got the shrimp po boy. Overcooked tasteless hard shrimp and must have scraped the fryer for the left over burned fries. Only one server and she was tired. We won't be returning. If you just want to drink and watch sports on TV, they have LOTS of TVs.

Enjoy coming here for lunch and drink or two. Bartenders are experienced and fun. Karaoke on Friday nights is exceptional.

Food and service were good. It's a little bit too dark inside for my liking, but it definitely wouldn't keep me from going

This is directed at the owner of this place. You must have been handed that business because if you are too ignorant to put a sign on the entrance door that does not open, don't ever tell a single customer "welcome." I was too embarassed to come in after trying to open one of the two doors in front. I wanted to have a couple drinks after a rough day at work, but this turned me off completely. You made me feel so dumb for something that should not happen. I guess blacking out the doors makes the place more appealing, especially at 8pm.

UPDATE! Started going back to Panini's again now for about a year after we stopped going for 2 years. We stopped going because of the food and they would shut down the place in the middle of college or NFL Football games, so you would have to go somewhere else to finish up the night. Since we started going back, it seems like the food has gotten better and more consistant. The wings definitely got better since they are putting a decent amount of sauce on them again, so much more flavorful. Just remember, it is a Bar and Grill, so expect that type of food, but that being said, it is much better than other Bar and Grills we have been too. The waitresses are courteous and friendly, which makes the experience much more pleasant, and been able to watch more complete football games once again.

Everything you want in a sports bar EXCEPT not being able to watch NFL Sports due to the bar only having Direct TV. No streaming live from other networks like Peacock which is what the game is on tonight, Dolphins vs Chiefs. Only complaint. Besides not being able to watch certain games, including the Buc’s game for the last three weeks, atmosphere, service, and food are great!Vegetarian options: Many options to choose from for vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: Many options for any diet restrictions.Parking: Plenty of parking anytime of day.Kid-friendliness: Kids have birthday parties all the time.Wheelchair accessibility: Access for everyone.
